Forgotten Soul

Bugs on Board

  Ravage was teaching Greywolf how to pounce silently with Laserbeak watching over them when the Nemesis came under attack. Greywolf quickly climbs onto Ravage's back and holds on tight as Ravage bolts to Soundwave with Laserbeak flying over them. Soundwave looks over and picks Greywolf up, knowing instantly that his little wolf was scared, as Greywolf pins his ears back and his tail curls around Soundwave's wrist.

  Fairly soon, the attack was gone and Megatron walked into the bridge, followed by an army of bug-like Cybertronians. Greywolf shrinks into Soundwave's chest and Ravage growls warningly at any who came too close.

  "These are the Insecticons. They follow my commands now," Megatron said and Soundwave nods. An Insecticon wanders over and pokes Greywolf, who automatically bit the finger. The Insecticon screeches and Greywolf covers his ears, refusing to let go and bit deeper. Soundwave gently opens Greywolf's mouth and the Insecticon backs up quickly.

  Every Insecticon shudders a little as a silent communication traveled through them, making every one of them know to respect the wolf sparkling. Soundwave watches, feeling a little smug that his little wolf was gaining a little respect. Greywolf stares at the Insecticons, a little curious about them but refuses to leave the protection of his sire's arms.

  Megatron makes the Insecticons leave and do heavy-duty jobs. Soundwave lets Greywolf play a game on his work monitor to distract him, which worked perfectly. Laserbeak and Ravage play with Greywolf, making him giggle happily, and the silent mech smiles at his sons. Soundwave felt happy but alert, keeping his silent vow of protecting Greywolf from any more kidnapping.
