Megatron's Daughter

Chapter 1

I lived my days on Cybertron before the war began and never thought of what could happen or what would happen until the day it did. I was reading the scrolls I usually read during noon on the windowsill that overlooked the rest of the city of Kaon. It was such a gorgeous and bright city, but I didn't get out of the Orphanage for Abandoned Sparklings very much to see it. Fortunately for me, I could oversee the center of the town and listen into all the meetings and performances that went on, and today was one of those days. I watched as everyone cheered the gladiators name as he stepped onto the stage. He was a big mech with silver peds and blue optics, he had a big gun with a retractable sword. I watched in awe as he spoke with a clear, powerful voice. “Citizens of Kaon I thank you for this chance to speak with you. I have news on the recent fights that have been breaking out and I assure you the Prime Council is doing all they can.” Everyone cheered for him and I just watched in awe as he smiled and bowed. “Wow Arcee can you imagine Megatronus adopting you?! It would be a miracle!!” I turned around to see some older sparklings by the name’s of Bumblebee and Arcee walk in with their usual fascination over the gladiator. Arcee and Bumblebee were about ten and six years older than me. Arcee was nineteen and Bumblebee was fifteen, almost sixteen, while I was only nine but I enjoyed their company as they spoke of the cities outside this orphanage. “Hi Arcee, Bumblebee. Get to see the speech this time around?” I played with my servos embarrassed to admit I had a hope that Megatronus would come and adopt me one day. “Hey Lilac. Ya we did and it was great as always when Megatronus talks. He has a way of drawing in the crowd without even trying ya know?” I nodded my head and waved as they walked off for the day. I sighed and watched the lights of Kaon from my window. I had been in the orphanage for five years now and I never thought of being adopted until I realized the reason. My build was not like a normal femme, I had longer legs and a sword, but I don't use it often. People say it’s weird for me to be named Lilac when I dont have the graceful build of one but I don't mind honestly. I enjoy my wings and my helm plating, others say I look alot like a vain assistant medic named Knockout but… I don't see the resemblance honestly and it’s weird to think of him as someone who could be my sire. I watched Kaon as the lights started going out with the setting sun and sighed, it was a gorgeous sight and one that many cherished. The next few weeks were quiet and Megatronus never came up to speak during those weeks so I was stuck reading scrolls of medicine, combat, and spying. It’s not that I don’t enjoy educating myself, but I have learned everything this place has to offer and it was getting boring. I stared out into the city of Kaon to the center of it to see the Library being opened as a tall red and blue mech walked in. He was actually taller than most mechs, but it didn’t matter it seemed as if people just ignored him. I continued sight gazing until about noon and that’s when I knew things were about to change on Cybertron…
