Soundwave's POV
"So it is you." My Sire hissed. I clenched my servos. Laserbeak snuggled closer to my chassis, afraid of the waves of raw fury that came off me. My control was gone. I swung my fist at him. He caught my fist ad chuckled. "Still so easy to read, aren't you, fragger?" He mocked.
Suddenly, he grabbed me by the throat. I clawed at his servos, drawing Energon. I kicked him in the stomach but inside, I knew I was no match. Physically, yes, but my mental strength was low, and exhausting me big time. He let go of me and wheezed, but was up in a flash, kicking and punching me. The troops stared in shock and horror.
I covered my chest with my arms, protecting Laserbeak, but I dared not to detach my feelers. Laserbeak struggled to escape, to fight, but if he was caught by my father... I shivered. I was in the floor now, curled up in a fetal position, protecting Laserbeak like a Carrier would.
A kick to the helm made me dizzy for a moment, and Laserbeak took that opportunity to escape my hold and fly down the hall and out of sight. At least he was safe. For now. I whimpered almost in audibly at a punch to the side. I dared not make another sound.
A sudden BANG made me open my optics and look up. Megatron was holding my Sire by the throat, threatening to blow his head off. The Vehicon, Slick, rushed over to my side. "Slag, Officer. You look terrible! I'm so, so sorry! I was too shocked to help! Please forgive me!" He begged. I nodded weakly. Knockout pushed his arms under me, and only then, did I see Laserbeak hovering over Megatron's shoulder. He must have gotten him to save me. Knockout rushed me to the Med-Bay, and I caught one last look of an angry Megatron forcing and shackled Killstar and my Sire to the prison cells.
"So... Soundy, how'd ya get yourself beaten up like that? Who was that guy?" Knockout asked as he fused my gashes back together. "He is my Sire." I said. Knockout's helm snapped towards me. "You talk?!" He shrieked. I held a finger up to the lower part of my visor, shushing him. I nodded. "Anyway," Knockout said, shaking his helm, trying to clear the shock. "Your Sire?! You mean the guy who abused you?"
I froze. He froze. "How did you know I was abused by him as a sparkling?!" I hissed, venom lacing my voice. Knockout laughed nervously. "A video or recording, whatever, was shown to the whole warship. Your dreams. We all thought you did it..." Knockout trailed off, optics wide. "Stupid!" He yelled at himself, face palming. "It was Starscream! I mean, he left the rec room about two clicks before the recording came on, and Arachnid was talking to you about secrets before the you went to recharge! It all makes sense! Starscream and Arachnid set you up!" The medic cried, looking pleased with himself.
Those two are going to the Pit.
Megatron's POV
As much as I want to kill this fragger for hurting my TIC, it would not be just. I know I'm the leader of the Decepticons, but killing without reason is 'completely illogical', as Shockwave would say. Instead, I locked the two fraggers in the dungeons, and went to check on Soundwave.
Inside the Med-Bay, Soundwave was getting his wounds fused by Knockout, Laserbeak was curled up on Knockout's chair. Soundwave was silent, and Knockout was humming. When Knockout reached up to clean Soundwave's visor, Soundwave's servo snapped up and blocked Knockout. "What are you-?" Knockout insisted. Instead, Soundwave reached up, and unlocked the visor and set it down beside him.
Laserbeak looked up, and cawed. I studied Soundwave's face closely. His optics were still closed, but his face was beautiful nonetheless. Soundwave's faceplates were smooth and looked slightly feminine. then, Soundwave opened his optics. I gasped. The sound drew Soundwave's attention. Soundwave's optics were blue. A sparkling, deep, tropical blue.
Soundwav's POV
Megatron's gasp got my attention. He was staring right at me. His optics met with mine. Red to blue. The only reason my optics were blue was because I never really became a Decepticon. I may have the Decepticon emblem, but I do not have a Decepticon spark. I was good on the inside. Mainly because I want to be nothing like my Sire. He is an evil mech. A full Decepticon at spark.
Now, Megatron, he was not a full Decepticon.Sometimes, when he thinks no one is watching, his optics flicker. Red to blue, red to blue. Just like now. Megatron's optics now match mine. As i stare at him, his optics changed. Red to blue. I will never. Never. Become a Decepticon, and if I can do anything about it, I will offline my Sire.
