Autobots From the Skies

Chapter Five

Cynder's Pov-

I walked around base in silence. It was easier staying quite, but I wonder how Bee has held on with this problem. Optimus was on scout for energon, Arcee and Bee were out somewhere. Bulkhead went dune-crashing, or whatever he wanted to call it. So here I am stuck with Ratchet while he checks my vocalizer once more. Let me say not very fun to be sitting here.

Soon enough something started going off. Darting to stand I nodded at Ratchet. Decepticons. Well more like Megatron.

Cynder *Buzzing*-"Send me out."

Ratchet look as if he would call Optimus, but I shook my head and walked over to start a ground bridge. As if on cue Ratchet ran over entering coordinates and started it up. He was going to say something and I knew it, so I held my hand stopping him from doing so. Watching the tunnel form I looked back with ease and a smile and ran through. Megatron was sitting their watching his 'men' work for dark energon. He turned hearing me step through, and a smile formed on his face plate.

Megatron-"So Optimus Prime's pet decided to join me here. I was expecting him, but you will do."

Rolling my optics I place my hand on what would be my hip. Megatron laughed and walked forward towards me a look in his dark, red eyes. Something was up, and that something was not good.

Megatron-"Not a talker I see. Let me change that."

In a swift motion he drew his wepon holding it to my neck, as he walked to my back. From the feel is was a dagger or sword. Not moving my optics from what was in front of me I waited. Com link...No I can't call in for help Megatron will know better, and Ratchet would of "told me so". He drew his weapon harder across the metal on my neck. A threat in my eyes.

Megatron-"Come on say something now."

I smiled quickly moving my right hand to my left wrist drawing a dagger. Turning away from his sword by the looks now, attempting to kick him, and throwing the knife at him. The kick didn't work to well, the knife did. It was lodged into Megatron's shoulder and he didn't look happy at all.

Cynder *Buzzing*-"Aww. Sorry darling didn't mean to hurt you."

He smiled once more, as he saw why I hadn't spoke before. Drawing my dagger from his body, Megatron threw it to the stone of the canyon. Then he walked closer to me. Circling me like I was prey of some sort. Another ground bridge powered up, and the decepticon leader frowned.

Megatron-"Looks as if time is up insect..."

I smiled. Megatron looked back at his ground bridge quickly. Soon enough I heard the sound of someone, hopefully Bulkhead, driving closer to us deep in the canyon walls for hopefully backup. He smiled again and leaped at me taking a grip of my throat and walking to the edge despite my struggle.

Megatron-"Your voice will be gone next time we meet."

And he dropped me. I didn't scream, but I curled into a tight ball waiting form impact. Except the ground didn't come. No. The feel of metal on metal, and the clang echoing. Megatron was long gone, I knew that much. He would of walked back through his ground bridge. Yet, I had no idea who caught me. I didn't have the courage to look as I did to fight. My guesses.

Bulkhead

or

A decepticon.

I wasn't sure why on the second one. There was this hunch though that I could be correct. Instead of going to a ground bridge. Who ever it was set me down on the ground in the shade. As scared as I was I opened my optics shocked. It wasn't Bulkhead. No. I saw Shockwave and Starscream instead.
