Transformers Prime: The Calm before the Storm

Chp 11: Seeking a weakness known as love

It was late in the evening on the Nemesis.

It was a pretty slow day in the medbay for Breakdown as he awaited his red companion to return.

Breakdown paced up and down the medbay waiting for Knockout to either comm him telling him he was on his way back or to just burst through the doors.

After the incident with MECH Breakdown had become rather paranoid that Knockout might get captured by MECH while out on his races.

He kept asking Knockout to check in more frequently while he was out just in case but knowing Knockout he'd either forget to or just plain out wouldn't do it.

Breakdown cared alot for the Aston Martin more than anyone could.

Breakdown stopped pacing and decided to busy himself with cleaning some medical tools.

He'll be back soon, he kept telling himself as he cleaned.

Knockout strolled through the Ground bridge as casual as ever.

He was greeted by Starscream.

"Well hello Doctor. Did you enjoy your little joy ride?" Starscream asked as he strutted towards Knockout with a sway of his hips.

Starscream unlike Megatron had allowed Knockout to go out street racing.

He knew the sports car couldn't be cooped up in the Nemesis forever.

He was like a Seeker in a way, you can't keep them from going for a flight for long or they'll get agnsty.

"Why yes I did, it was a beautiful night tonight. And I left all those pathetic humans in my dust!" Knockout exclaimed with pride.

Starscream put his servo around Knockout's waist pulling him closer to his frame.

"Why don't we celebrate your victory in my quarters with some high grade, hmm?"

Knockout was no stranger to the Seeker inviting him to his quarters for drinks, he'd done this before he had left the Nemesis.

But he was starting to ask of him to frequently for his taste honestly ever since he became leader, he couldn't get enough of the K.O.

Yes Starscream was a beautiful mech with a remarkable paint job and a frame to match it but he needed his hunky truck every now and then.

"Sorry my Lord but I must decline. Tonight's Breakdown's night."

Starscream's wings drooped in disappointment.

Yes he knew Breakdown and Knockout had something, he wasn't sure if it was a relationship or just a good frag but he still hated the fact he had to share.

Starscream let out an agitated sigh and took his servo from Knockout's waist.

"Very well but you owe me tomorrow!"

Knockout chuckled at the Seeker.

"Don't worry I'll make sure the whole Decepticon army hears your screams tomorrow." Knockout said as he walked towards the medbay.

Knockout had a pep in his step as he walked down the halls, he couldn't wait to dig his claws into Breakdown.

As he walked through the medbay doors, he noticed Breakdown was cleaning up some medical tools, he didn't even notice Knockout had come in.

"Well good evening my sweet assistant. Hard at work I see." Knockout purred as he walked closer to Breakdown.

Breakdown jumped a bit in surprise but turned around and smiled at Knockout.
