Laserbeak onlined and her HUD reported her condition to her.
Energon Levels: Low... Need to Refuel. Damage on Right side repaired.
Laserbeak's optics popped open. Damage on Right side repaired! She sat up quickly and groaned, clutching her right side.
"Ep ep yep!" Ratchet scolded, waving his wrench in the air, "You are in no condition to move!" Laserbeak hissed and stood up. Ratchet grumbled and used one of his digit to push her back down. Laserbeak hissed and stood back up again when Ratchet wasn't looking. She walked towards the edge of the metal berth, transformed and flew over to Soundwave.
"Bossbot!" Laserbeak yelled through the bond. Soundwave jolted online.
"What!" she yelled back. Laserbeak mentally flinched.
"We need to get out of here!"
"Yeah, once you find out how to get these energon cuffs off me!" Soundwave yelled back, careful not to struggle. Laserbeak smiled.
"Laserbeak," Soundwave said sternly through the bond, "Mission: Free Soundwave," Laserbeak mentally saluted. She glanced around the Autobot base and heard distant voices discussing things from the other side. She grinned evilly and transformed, flying to the underside of the metal berth, trying to find any keyholes. She flew to the far side of the berth, where Soundwave's feet was strapped down and she found a keyhole.
"Found the keyhole bossbot!" Laserbeak reported through the bond. Soundwave mentally nodded approvingly. Laserbeak gravitised to the underside of the berth, transformed back to her bipedal mode and stuck her claws in, twisting and turning until she heard a satisfying click.
The energon cuffs above her disappeared and Soundwave got up quietly and slowly, sliding of the berth. Laserbeak degravitised and flew up to Soundwave, smiling over the bond.
"Let's get out of here!" Laserbeak mentally yelled. Just then, Wheeljack and Bulkhead was casually walking in the medbay when they saw Soundwave standing and Laserbeak flying beside her. Soundwave immediately transformed into her alt mode.
"The Cons escaped!" Wheeljack yelled, firing at Soundwave and Laserbeak. They skilfully dodged all of his shots and proceeded to shot back. All of the Autobots ran to the medbay, saw Soundwave and Laserbeak flying out quickly and also joined in the pursuit.
"Join in with me!" Soundwave yelled, flying directly above Laserbeak. Laserbeak ascended in altitude and joined into Soundwave's chest. Soundwave shot at the walls of the base and flew out. One stray shot hit her on the left wing and altered her course but she immediately regained balance and she flew off into the air.
"So," Laserbeak asked once they were airborne, "Where are we going to go now?"
"Somewhere away from all of this war," Soundwave said, growling as she picked up signals of humans pursuing her, leaded by Optimus Prime, on air.
"Those Autobots never give up," Laserbeak groaned, preparing to dispatch herself when the time is right. Soundwave dodges all of their feeble attempts to shoot at her and accelerated to incredible speeds. Soundwave opened a groundbridge in front of her and dissapeared into it, closing the groundbridge after her. Optimus Prime stop abruptly, almost causing an air collison between the military jets.
"Autobots," Optimus Prime said through comm, "We have lost our Decepticon prisoner,"
