Igniting the Fuse (Transformers)

Rebirthing III

…Rebirthing III…

~*~*~*~*~

Her flesh had been stripped from her body, muscles peeled away as ligaments dissolved and her blood evaporated. She was decomposing, her molecules drifting into the endless white energy that surrounded her. It was like she wasn't acceptable for this place and so it was purging her. Every thought, every worry, every part that composed her disintegrated as she continued to be purified.

Unworthy and pure, the conflicting feelings brushed away the sensations until she merely was. When she became aware, she found herself gazing at the black surface of a table. The room was chilled and she was merely sitting. Amazingly, she felt bored as she suddenly glared at the table.

"Does it honestly matter—"Alexis glanced up and startled at the sight of the mech calmly sitting next to her. The side view of his white profile intimidated her. He glanced up from the microscope, causing fear to swell within. "…what the Council thinks of you?"

She wasn't sure what to say since she had no clue who or what this Council was. Suddenly, her body was shifting, leaning closer to the larger mech. Despite the fear she felt, her smaller form was trying to intimidate the larger mech.

"Of course it doesn't!" The forced smugness and aloofness caused the words to come out slightly high pitched, but she realized the words had come from her mouth. "The Council Members are fools!" The laughter was dark, full of seething.

Something dawned upon her as the faint memory of her research reared itself, she recognized the larger white mech. His blue optics dimmed as he chuckled and shook his head. Alexis felt annoyance brew within her systems at his dismissal, but it wasn't her annoyance. She realized this was Skyfire, the mech from the article about Synthetic Energon.

Could it be possible?

"Come, look at this formula, Starscream."

Soundwave's world was composed of immaculate order. He was aware of everything even when most thought him unaware. Being ignorant was not acceptable, such a lackluster fortitude could lead to deactivation. He coveted information when most thought it useless. It was information that had helped him ascend the Decepticon ranks; he was the being that inspired fear. His optics were ever watching, his audios trained to hear the whisper of dust, and his emotions carefully hidden. Calmly, his digits worked across the keys as his visor remained trained to the security screens. It didn't matter that Laserbeak was showing him live footage of Earth upon his visor, he could see all.

Centuries worth of repetition caused him to continue his work despite the abnormality Laserbeak detected. The energy signature detected was unique and read higher than the first moments of an activating spark. The chances of a Sparkling being created or a protoform activated were slim; protoforms had been destroyed in the beginning of the war as a precaution. Telepathically, he instructed Laserbeak to swoop within the vicinity without gaining unneeded attention. The Autobots and humans had worked together creating Energon Detection Sensors that monitored the Earth and its atmosphere. To his surprise, they had produced equipment functioned efficiently.

It was with ease he recognized the Spark Signature of one Autobot and one Decepticon turned traitor. He store away the coordinates of the Decepticon traitor and focused on the abnormal Energy Signature.

'This is not probable.'

It wasn't possible for such a signature to be emanating from an organic being. Laserbeak detected the presence of two carbon based life forms, and one was radiating a unique energy signature that reminded him distantly of the AllSpark. He knew that such a thing wasn't possible; the human Samuel Witwicky had retained the energy of the AllSpark only for it to dissipate.
