CHAPTER 9: "Awakening" As the ambassadors entered the old base, sleepy giant met them. “What I’ve missed?” – Blast Off asked. “Nothing really. New base is almost finished.” – Swindle responded. “Unfunny.” Onslaught found the cubes. He took one and decided to drink. – [Megatron won’t find out.] – he tossed it to Swindle. - “Indeed.” – Yellow bot agreed and also took a sip. “What are you doing?” – Blast Off took away the cube. “We’re hungry and deserve to pamper ourselves a little.” “If the Leader finds out, you are in charge.” – Giant continued roaming around the territory of base. --- Wheeljack and Ratchet were observing the found bot. “His backpack is broken. Wait,” – Engineer opened it and found handset. – “Hm… Looks like human technology.” “It’s a portable radio, a device for sending and receiving calls.” – Jazz explained. – “Unlike us, Decepticons don’t have advanced communication, so they have to use outdated gear.” “So that’s what it is.” “His state is stable.” – Ratchet made a notice. – “Yet I can’t predict the time of awakening.” “Why not hit him with electricity?” “Too dangerous. We can’t risk.” Wheeljack shrugged. Both specialists left the room. Jazz stays. Curious Starscream entered the room. – “May I look?” “Yep.” --- “His state is stable, there’s nothing much to say.” - Ratchet explained to Optimus. “Alright. Seems like we don’t have to hurry the time.” “Optimus! We calculated the coordinates of Decepticon base!” – Perceptor exclaimed. “Good job. Soon we can--” --- Escort jumped off the table. - “Where I am?? Where is Vortex? Did I save him?” – he started to glance around and noticed scared Starscream. “King Starscream! I am so grateful for saving me.” – he kneeled down to the ground. “Um…” – […King Starscream? It’s in the past. I no longer associate with Decepticons and dominion.] “Wait a minute.” – battle medic looked at the so-called saver and noticed Autobot insignia. – “You wear our enemy’s symbols. It’s treason then.” – He tried to reach his back, but the weapon wasn’t there: it’s broken, buried somewhere in sand. Jazz run towards Escort. Battle medic pushed him off. – “Get out of my way!” – Escort tried to escape, but Ratchet and Wheeljack stopped him. – “We got ‘em!” “We’re here!” - Prowl and Ironhide came to help. It’s no use. The warrior is too strong. But Optimus Prime grabbed him. “Stop it. You are outnumbered and can’t escape from the Ark.” “Put me back!” – Decepticon tried to get away, but his attempt was similar to a cat trying to escape human embrace. – “Fine. You win. Happy?” – refugee gave up and hangs like a plushie toy. – [Capture me. Put in the cell. But I will keep quiet.] “We aren’t going to do anything bad to you.” “How did you… Read my mind?” “As an Autobot Leader, I have an access to the thoughts of my own.” – Prime explained. “Your own?? I’m Decepticon and always been.” – Escort crossed arms. “I thought so at first, but now I realize you aren’t.” – Leader put him on ground. “…What?” – [This can’t be…] “You may wear evil, but your Spark says the opposite.” [That explains everything. The strange connection I had with wounded. The emotion I felt when Rumble and Ravage were close. The power I acquired after Reflector needed me. That means I am…] “An Autobot, just like us.” “…So all my life was a lie.” – he sit. “Don’t worry buddy, I am like you.” – Starscream put a hand on his shoulder. – “I always believed the ruler is my destiny, delayed by Megatron. Yet 2 days ago I realized it’s not my fate. I am created for more than just a king.” “I… I am sorry. How may I fix my mistake?” “Join us.” – Optimus lend a hand. “Will I be able to change my name and alt mode?” “Absolutely.” Escort accepted hand. – “Then I am Azimuth, Autobot medic.”
