Megatron's Vehicon

Promise Making

'Is a secret worth a life? Worse yet, a sparkling's life?' B6 asked himself as he rubbed his tanks with a protoform now a few more solar cycles into development.

Megatron had commed him multiple times, and researching on a data pad, knew he was still on line. Megatron thought about going to see him personally but decided against it for obvious reasons. The Megatron, showing concern about a mere soldier, pathetic. He instead constantly commed in on B6, but every time he did he was greeted with a rejecting beep. It infuriated him, no one refused his wishes.

So he made a plan.

He'd send Workers to an energon mine and make sure B6 was at least a data pad carrier and he'd go to keep an optic out for Optimus. PERFECT!

Megatron demanded Soundwave find an energon mine, even a small one. Soundwave found a tiny vein of energon, barely enough to power any system, but Megatron ordered a small crew making absolutely sure to include B693 to go down. He made up his half truthful reasoning to join about recent Autobot activity and went down with them, but his motives were clear to Soundwave, yet all the silent mech knew was that B6 was the recently 'used' Vehicon, and he couldn't help but be jealous.

At the Autobot base

"Optimus." Ratchet called out for his leader, "I've found a small energon mine, not much, but as low as our supplies are..."

"We need all we can get," Optimus finished, "Autobots," Optimus called to  Arcee, Bumblebee and Bulkhead, gaining their attention, "Ratchet has found an energon mine, We're too collect its contents and deliver it back home." Optimus stood before his small team as they nodded in understanding.

They said goodbye to their charges and gained wishes of luck in return before they transformed and

Back at the Decepticons

B6 begrudgingly got up and headed for his door, his energy was even more lowered than it was yesterday. But he was stopped when he got a comm incoming, panicking he found it was just Knockout, he answered merely awaiting for whatever Knockout needed to say.

"B6, I saw you were on the roster for the mining crew. Whatever you do you can't transform into your alt mode, if you do your sparkling will be crushed." Knockout warned with a bland voice.

"O-oh, I understand, I won't transform under any circumstances." B6 said repeating it in his helm to remember.

"Good, also good luck, you'll need it since Megatron's going to be supervising your team." B6's energon ran cold, he knew why that was, Megatron wished to speak to him, and he had ignored him, so he's taken matters into his own servos.

B6 walked through the ground bridge unlike the rest who transformed and drove through, the entire time B6 stayed hidden doing data pads behind rocks staying out of Megatron's view. From what he saw Megatron was being very observant in trying to find him. Once his leaders optics grazed over him, instilling so much fear that he froze, thank Primus he did not see the scratch he had given him many cycles ago and that he was just as oblivious to the identity of each clones as others were . B6 sighed in relief when the mine was almost empty, which didn't take long, however the sound of tires shocked the soldier and every other con in the mine, including there leader.

"WHAT?!" Megatron yelled out in confusion as he saw all too familiar cars drive in, the Autobots transformed,  weapons ready and shot as many cons as possible, Optimus and Megatron battled it out on a far ledge in the cave. B6 just ran through the ground bridge, just wanting his safety.

As soon as he was safe in the confides of the Nemesis he helped the other troopers who were hurt, bringing them too the medic and helping wrap up their wounds. Knockout, once finished, stood next to the con,

"Did you get shot?" Knockout asked worried, B6 shook his head, "And you didn't transform?"

"No Knockout." B6 sighed,

"I'm just checking, may not seem like I would, but I do worry about the next generation." Knockout explained,

"I know... Thank you Knockout." B6 said before walking back to his berth room to get some data pads done and recharge. Whilst waiting for recharge to overtake him he rubbed his tanks and hummed softly, wondering not only if the sparkling would survive, but how'd he keep it a secret whilst he still worked, unless he ran away... No what a stupid idea. Where would he go? How would he get enough energon not only for himself, but for the sparkling as well? B6 decided to have happy thoughts before recharging, he thought about what his sparkling would look like, and how adorable he'd be, he had to admit Megtaron was handsome, would he have a handsome Mech? Or he may have a gorgeous Femme? B6 sighed in content and continued trying to recharge.
