the sparkling of the dark.

prisoner or teammate?

They took me to their base but as soon as we arrived, they unchained me. I was surprised at first but then I knew it was my chance and that I had to take it.

"-..." "- so how did Stark become your carrier as well as Megatron?" The prime asked me. "- it.. It's a long story..., to make it short, she got captured, she got forced bonded to Megatron and then terminated.... But normally, she should still be among the living if it wasn't for me..." With that said washer fluid came over my faceplate as the team just watched me."- I don't get it! She's a decepticon! Why is she here for?!" Miko yelled. Bulkhead turned and gave her a glare that made her shut up. "- do you want to talk in private?" The prime asked with a low yet gentle voice. I just nodded and we started to walk down to his room.

When we arrived, he closed the door behind him a locked it with his digital lock. "- so, how did she die?" "-..... Normally I wasn't allowed to see her. Me and my sir, Megatron,where ....."

It was a good half an hour before every thing was explained. "- ...and that's when I made her the promise to become an Autobot and to finish this war and if I don't finish it, I will die in action... And knockout made me promise to become an Autobot as well." The prime just looked at me blankly. He set a servo on my shoulder pad and left.

Not really knowing what to do, I stayed there. He came back a few minutes afterwards. He seemed a bit more, let's just say, relaxed and happy. I think... "- why do primes have to hide their feelings?" I thought as he asked me to follow him into the main hangar. I followed him into total silence having no subject to talk about.

As we arrived, the Autobots where grouped into a circle talking about something I don't think I would want to know about. The prime cleared his vocals to signal his presence. "-why in primus holy name? Why am I getting shy now??? Arrggh!! I hate myself sometimes!" I thought as all I wanted to do is run away.

"- so you want to become an Autobot?!" A blue femme named Arcee asked. "- ...?!!!!???!!!!" That was my answer."- well?" She asked again. "- if its... Um well..." I looked at the prime with a ' HELP ME' glare.  He just gestured me to Carrie on. "- yes if possible...." I said taking a nervous step back. The way they where standing just made it look like bullies bullying a younger kid.. "- well then..." She started before a green big Autobot came and took me into a REALLY tight hug. "- Your.. Breaking...... My..systems....." I managed to say. He got off me and the rest of the team came near me to present themselves properly. The only one that had a .... Grumpy presentation, was Ratchet. Apparently, he is like that with everyone. Fine by me.. I met the humans but one didn't like me. June Darby. She was the mother of jack. "- you lay one finger on my son or anyone in this team, I will kill you myself!! Do I make myself clear?!" That was the first thing she said to me.

( does anyone else think that June is partly irritating or is it just me?)

It has been a few days since I was in the Autobot's team. Today was the day when Ratchet is going to change my decepticon insignia to an Autobot. I was still getting used to the fact that they actually where nice with one another and that they treated as part of what they call family. As it seemed really important to them, I didn't want to offend them by asking what it meant but that word just wouldn't leave my mind...

"-shadow star! It's time." Ratchet poped out of nowhere. "- sur....sure." I struggled. "- is.. Is it going to..." " hurt? A little." He finished me off."- OK.." And with that he started to work. "- yaiks!" I squealed as he pinched me real hard. "- stay still!" He shouted back.

It was a long and painful afternoon but now, it was over. Finely!
