   It's been one year and a a few months since I was captured. I've been stuck with Silas and was forced to be his guinea pig. I've been tortured and experimented on, I've been changed to a whole new bot.  I have gotten all my limbs back and have now gotten more stealthier and more violently than I was before, and now I somehow have red colored Optics, thanks to Silas of course. I have a new paint job as well, Crimson red with a soulless black color to it, mixed with silver streaks. They took off my Autobot symbol that was carved to my side and replaced it with the word MECH. Have I mentioned those bastards finally took my mouth guard off? Finally, those little scraps will pay, well, besides one. Andrew is his name, he has actually been the only human in MECH that doesn't want to harm me. He keeps his little secret under the radar of Silas or who knows what he will do to him. Andrew is actually the only guy who talks to me besides demanding answers about how us Cybertronians work. I would say Andrew saved my spark a few times actually, I owe him. I would say these things but I rather keep my feelings to myself now. Well actually, once you've been tortured for a whole year, it's pretty easy to keep them. Now, I know, I'm a fragging robot why couldn't I just leave, well it was because I thought I could of counted on him. I still can't believe that excuse of a Prime hasn't came to save my arse. I trusted him, I had faith in him, yet, my thought to be Knight in shining armor never showed. So I'm taking things into my own hands from now on and I will never trust in anyone else ever again.

"Nightfall, you have let MECH gather as much information as we can, now we will ask you again nicely," Silas gritted his teeth "how do we power up the robot?" He asked, well more of a demand actually. I looked at him and vented, this guy seriously has no idea how we function. I pity him.... ha I'm so funny, I would dance on his grave if I had the chance. "Aren't you suppose to be The Silas? I thought you can figure out this stuff." I said from a distance. Silas has "granted me the freedom" to walk around if more that five of his workers follow me. Silas has summoned me to his laboratory for answers. And of course knowing me, I have gained the skills of being sarcastic, which Silas wasn't fond of.

"Nightfall, I will ask again, how do we power up the robot?" He demanded while bringing his hands into a fist. That's the Silas I know. "And since when have you known me to answer to you?" I asked bitterly staring into his soulless eyes. He was about to tell something until I held up my hand, "yep, I know. Go get on the metal berth and get ready for more experimenting, yay.." I trailed off. Silas let out a small growl and turned to continue blurring out orders to his workers.

I then saw my favorite guy in the Galaxy. Andrew started talking to one of the soldiers that was forced to walk with me everywhere, it looked like Andrew offered to trade places and it worked. Well, onto my plan to escape this hell hole. I turned and started walking to the other room, the soldiers followed as well. I turned to a long hallway, "hey robot! Where do you think you're going?" A worker yelled, he pointed his gun towards me as well as the others, besides Andrew.  I turned and grinned, my now red optics stare into the man's eyes. I let out a small laugh and then transform into my cyber wolf form. I heard the workers screams while bullets charged at me.

I ran toward them and knocked out a few of them. One particular man had a taser gun or whatever those things are called, those things hurt a lot if hit. I moved back and got ready for the sudden impact. I heard a gun go off and flinched, yet, nothing happened. I opened my optics and saw Andrew pointing a gun to a dead body that laid next to him. I could see the horror in his eyes, maybe it was his first ever time that he killed someone.

"Hey Andrew calm down, we need to go now." I said trying to sooth him. He took a breath  and walked shakily next to me. I wasn't planning to take a plus one but I do owe him. I kneeled down letting him get on my back. I then started sprinting to the nearest exit I could find. The alarms went on and I heard shuffling everywhere.

I made it to an exit but it required a code. I kneeled and let Andrew get off me and transformed back. "Andrew, do you think you can open it?" I asked, I heard footsteps and the yell of Silas. "Yea just give me a second!" He said running to a screen. I turned and transformed my hands into blasters and aimed then ahead of me. I heard footsteps get closer to us, "Andrew..." I trailed off, I saw Silas come into view with men behind him. "I got it!" He yelled, the huge door behind me slide open and I transformed into my v- mode and let Andrew get in. I sped heading into a tunnel.   It took about three minutes and finally I saw a light. I sped faster and finally felt the warmth of the sun on me. I heard Andrew laugh a bit.

We drove for about an hour and we finally stopped next to an old abandoned gas station. Andrew got off and I transformed back stretching. I looked around, one year has passed since I've seen the outside. It wasn't much, just canyons and red dust everywhere but I enjoyed it.  I looked down at Andrew who was as well enjoying the view. I looked at him and smiled.  "Hey Andrew. What do you think if I became your guardian?" I asked. I have to say, I grew attach to this human.  He looked up at me and smiled, "sure thing Night." He said laughing. "So...what do we do now?" Andrew asked looking into my optics breaking the silence. I looked ahead of me and sighed. What's next?

Ratchet's PoV

I looked at the computers and tried to figure out where Bulkhead and Miko were. The two went out but haven't came back and knowing them, they might be doing something.  At the corner of the screen, a tractor went on, I pressed on it and a map of the area we are currently in showed. In the far corner of the USA map, a small red dot started beeping. I gasped, this meant there was a cybertronian in that current location, but I wasn't sure if it was a hoax or if it was really true. I contacted Optimus. ::Base to Optimus do you copy?:: I asked. It took awhile until Optimus's voice came in, ::what do you need old friend?:: he answered. ::a cybertronian tracker just came on:: a silence took over and Finally Optimus answered. ::I'll be there in a bit:: and with that, the communication cut off and I was left to wonder if it was another of our Autobots.
