~A Little Bit of Bad with A Little Bit of Good.~

Chapter 28

You stared forward into the bright yellow eyes your own flickering. The ancient dragon took a step forward its mighty jaws parted a deep rumble leaving its mouth. Your dermas parted out optics wide as you took a step or two back.

"FaCe JuDgEmEnT!" Yelled one of the alien natives of the planet, "fAcE jUdGeMeNt oF mIgHtY oNe!!"

You swallowed thickly seeing your own fears come to life in those yellow eyes. Your task Crew was tied and were being threatened with spears. This was a greeaat first mission as captain of your own crew. Getting them captured and facing the judgement of a so called "Mighty One".

You wanted to yell and scream at the natives to silence their chanting, but your voice just couldn't form the strength from in your vocalizers. You released a staticky noise of protest when you received a sharp jab to the back struts forcing you forward.

"MiGhTy OnE wE hAvE bRoUgHt YoU oNe FoR jUdGeMeNt!" The natives chanted

"Mighty One." The priest called from behind you, "Look into this mechanics past present and future. Cast your light of judgement onto her!"

You swallowed your optics snapping wider as you began to see flashes of your past. Your optics swelled with tears that fell as soon as they formed. Very recent events began to play out before your optics coming up to yesterday.

Next it was a blinding light. You could hear muffled voices and see fuzzy visions of some bots. You could hear a sparklings laugh. Your trance was broken as the dragon spoke again.

"She is worthy." It spoke and turned to your crew, "They are not."

Your optics widened as the mob gathered around them and you could hear the sickening cries of pain from them. You saw your chance for escape seeing the mob had moved to your crew. You bolted forward ignoring the priests hands trying to grab you. You leapt from the ledge and transformed whipping passed the dragon and out the tunnel behind him.

You heard the screaming of the organics get farther and farther away you eventually hit the light of the outside and kept going back towards the ship.

You would most definitely lose the respect you had from the rest of your crew. Most definitely will be mocked for your failure and probably have plenty of bots try and betray you. Ah! What made Megatron so successful?

He's big. He's intimidating. When he threatens your onlining you take it seriously... that's it. Instead of threatening the onlining of bots you wouldn't hesitate. You would kill. You transformed at the entrance of your ship. You straightened your spinal strut and walked aboard.You walked to the main deck and everyone turned to you.

"Ma'am, where are the others?" Asked a bot

"If the mob is to be trusted, offline." You spoke, "Prepare for lift off."

"But ma'am we are still getting their signals!"

"Are you questioning my command?" You spoke, "Everyone who doesn't agree with my decision to leave line up."

Slowly seven bots stood in a straight line in front of you. Narrowing your optics only slightly you blasted each one a nice sized hole in their helms. You looked down at the bots emotionless.

You placed your blaster away, "Any other objections?" You asked glaring around, "No? Then send someone to clean these protoforms from my command deck." You scoffed stepping over one to your chair

"Now, are we clear for take off?" You spoke in the silent room

"U-u-umm yes ma'am." A voice broke through

"Excellent. Take off I need to file these offlines." You spoke tapping the buttons on the arm rest

"Hi Screamer, How's serving right under megatron?" You asked your twin when the deck had cleared for the night cycle

"Urgh. He's so annoying. Starscream this and Starscream that. You would not believe how annoying some of the other bots are." You smiled softly at him, "I would much prefer your job (y/n). Not having anyone to be right there and bossing you around."

"I happen to serve under megatron just like you Starscream, just Im not at central command." You chuckled, "And besides your belong where you are to get all the respect you deserve."

"True, but what is this I hear you filed fourteen offlined bots today?" Starscream asked adjusting the camera

"Seven I lost during a mission and the other seven were offlined by my own servo." You spoke honestly, "They questioned my command."

"Ooo. Maybe I should try that."

"Screamer I wouldn't. You're second in command you already have plenty of respect with that title." You chuckled, "Plus you're new just give it sometime. I know how difficult that is for you."

"Hey!"

"I'm not sorry."

"Talk next cycle."

"Talk next cycle."

With that you closed the chat with a heavy sigh. It's only been a couple megacycles and your already feeling more alone than ever.
