EHSparkwoman: Can one of you do the disclaimer?

Starscream: EHSparkwoman doesn't own Transformers; it belongs to whoever created it.

EHSparkwoman: Because if I did, Starscream and Airachnid would have done something explicit in the Harbinger!

Airachnid: …

AN: This is the sequel to Decepticon Dare Club, so it is recommended that you read that first. I didn't originally plan to do a sequel but… I worked out some more ideas and here this is! Text written like :: this :: is com speech. Text written like this is a character's thoughts. Some Cybertronian time units you may need: klik = 1.2 minutes, orbital cycle = 1 month, breem = 8.3 minutes, solar cycle = 1 day, nanoklik = 1 second.

"What are you planning this time, Knocks?"

"Nothing that you won't be invited to join this time, Breakdown." Knock Out answered him. The two of them were waiting in med-bay, apparently for some of the other high ranking officers. About a couple of kliks later, the doors to the med-bay slid open.

"Ah, if it isn't the Nemesis' resident love-birds."

"You'd do well to keep your comments about such things to yourself, Knock Out." Starscream growled at him.

"Why? Pretty much everyone on the Nemesis knows exactly what you two get up to behind closed doors!" Knock Out smirked, hoping silently that Starscream would ask why.

"Have you been spreading rumours again, doctor?" Starscream put his hands on his hips, glaring at Knock Out.

"Actually, no. You are the one who has been 'spreading rumours' as you put it!" Knock Out told him triumphantly. The look of shock on Starscream's face told him that the commander must have forgotten about the events that happened about an orbital cycle ago.

"Remember, the dare from Dreadwing that meant you had to tell the Vehicons about what you get up to with me behind closed doors…" Starscream jumped; he'd apparently forgotten that Airachnid was behind him.

"And the fabled Nemesis grapevine is as efficient as ever…" He groaned.

"What do you mean 'the whole Nemesis knows'? I didn't." Breakdown looked confusedly at Knock Out.

"I didn't think you'd want to know; and clearly the Vehicons didn't either." Knock Out whispered.

Meanwhile, in one of the Nemesis' many corridors…

"What have you gotten me into?" Skyquake asked.

"Nothing too evil, I assure you." Dreadwing told his twin.

"What was the worst thing you had to do?"

"Throw slime balloons at Megatron during one of his speeches." Skyquake's jaw dropped.

"Really!? That was you?! Everyone thought it was Soundwave!"

"Not everyone. The rest of the Dare Club knew."

"And I thought our master decreed that this couldn't be started up again."

"Knock Out said he isn't reforming the Dare Club, but he wanted to tell me about something." Dreadwing started to explain, before being interrupted.

"And why are you dragging me along?"

"Because Knock Out said I could." Skyquake didn't notice his twin smirk. Just after his twin answered, they reached the med-bay. The doors slid open, and the first thing they heard was.

"I've told you before; you shouldn't touch me like that in front of others!"

"Why? Does it make you all hard?" Airachnid teased. Starscream groaned; there really was no persuading her sometimes.

"Did we miss something?" Skyquake asked. Dreadwing just shook his head; he'd had to put up with this before. The blue flush staining Starscream's cheeks seemed to suggest as such.

"Just Airachnid stroking Starscream's wings." Breakdown sniggered; he thought Starscream was overreacting. Dreadwing and Skyquake didn't; they knew how sensitive wings could be.

"Ah, just the two mechs I was waiting for! Do close the door behind you; the ship's eyes and ears don't need to hear about this." Knock Out smirked; the twins had no idea what they'd let themselves in for. After the door shut, they all gathered around where the medic was stood.

"What did you call us here for this time, doctor?" Starscream asked, glaring at him.

"You remember the Decepticon Dare Club, don't you?" He asked. The shudder from Dreadwing made it worth it.

"I'll take your silence as a 'yes'. Well, it turns out Dares is just one of the human games like that. They have another one, one which I think we would all enjoy a lot more." This seemed to gain Breakdown's interest.

"What's this one entail?" He asked.

"The title gives it away, so I'll just tell what it's called. The fleshies call it 'Truth or Dare'."

"What does it entail; you didn't explain what we have to do." Dreadwing told him.

"Err… I didn't? I suppose not. Let's decide the order first; then I'll explain it." Knock Out pulled a bucket with six wires in it out from under one of the berths.

"Each of these wires is a different length. The one who gets the shortest wire goes first, the one who gets the longest goes last and can ask the first player the question." He explained. Everyone else grabbed one of the wires, leaving Knock Out with the only one left. He shrugged and grabbed the wire. All of them then held the wires close together and compared the lengths.

"What!? You fixed it!" Starscream shrieked at him.

"How could I have fixed it? Unless you are implying I can read minds or predict the future?" Knock Out told Starscream; who had no choice but to believe him. Starscream noticed then who had got the longest wire and protested again.

"I can no more predict the future than I can make you all pick every wire but the longest one, commander. How would I know that you were going to grab those wires?" Starscream grumbled, resigned to his fate of going first again.

"I'll now ask you, Starscream; truth or dare?" Starscream seemed surprised he was given the choice.

"Care to explain what each of them is?" Skyquake prompted; since he had a feeling Starscream wouldn't.

"If you choose truth, the other player asks you a question; which you must answer with the truth; we will know if you are lying! If you choose dare, you will be told to do something by the other player and you must do it. Any other questions?" Knock Out finished explaining and then looked pointedly around the group.

"Truth." Starscream then muttered 'sounds like the lesser of two evils.' The evil smirk he got from Knock Out seemed to suggest otherwise.

"Have you ever done anything…?" He paused on purpose, to make Starscream worry a little.

"Frisky, with Airachnid in a public place? And if so, give details." Starscream looked very unnerved by the question.

"Actually no, we haven't." He tried to sound natural. After he gave his answer, he and the rest of the group heard a high pitched cheeping sound.

"I think the answer is yes, Starscream." Breakdown smirked. Starscream groaned in response.

"Fine, yes I… err, we have."

"I believe I asked for details, Starscream." Knock Out told him. The start of a blush in Starscream's cheeks told him one thing; this was going to be juicy!

"Well… There was the time when we… 'Made out' as you might put it, in the Vehicon wash racks…"

"That doesn't sound particularly bad…"

"I hadn't finished, Skyquake. Airachnid didn't have any armour on, and the only reason I didn't see anything was because she had a few bubbles covering her up. Something similar happened in the mess hall, only I was the one devoid of any armour…" Starscream glared at Airachnid, who just sniggered in response; she'd been the one to devoid him of his armour after all, and he didn't realise until later.

"But that's it, I swear!" A high pitched cheeping answered him again; this time his cheeks turned a bright shade of blue. He must really not want us to know about any others. That only makes me want to know about them more! Knock Out thought, a devious smirk appearing on his face.

"Apparently not, tell us about the other time or times." Starscream groaned at Knock Out's request.

"Airachnid may have touched my spike while I was on monitor duty…" He told them, sounding defeated and slightly annoyed he had to tell them.

"With my mouth." She added. The other four mechs' jaws dropped and Starscream's face went a brighter shade of blue.

"Airachnid!" He scolded.

"You didn't strike me as the type, commander!" Breakdown commented, starting to laugh.

"You mean you were underneath the desk, giving him…"

"Yes." Airachnid cut off Dreadwing; Starscream looked humiliated enough as it was.

"Can we move on, please?" Starscream grumbled.

"I suppose." Knock Out shrugged.

"Dreadwing, you're next." Starscream had an evil grin on his face. Dreadwing looked a little nervous.

"Truth or dare?" He was asked.

"If you think that I am going to do something ridiculous for the sake of your amusements, you are sadly mistaken. Truth." He answered.

"Right then…" An evil grin from Starscream told Dreadwing that that was the wrong answer.

"If you were into mechs, who would you choose to be your partner?"

"That question is irrelevant, as I am not." Dreadwing answered.

"I said if you were. Answer the question!" Starscream caught the nervous look Dreadwing gave in response. Dreadwing then had a thought.

"How would you react if I said 'you'?"

"Is that actually your answer?" Starscream sounded surprised.

"No, I'd be terrified I'd hurt you." The fact Starscream looked somewhat disappointed made the others laugh.

"I think it would probably be Breakdown, or… Megatron." Dreadwing nervously told them, a slight blush appearing on his cheeks.

"I knew it!" Starscream crowed; he'd had suspicions about that before.

"But, as I said, I am not into mechs." Knock Out seemed disappointed that high pitched cheeping didn't follow this answer.

"Breakdown, truth or dare?" Dreadwing decided to move on, before the rest of them could ask him anything.

"Since I wasn't a member of the Dare Club, and I haven't done one… dare." Breakdown didn't sound nervous. Airachnid, Knock Out and Starscream thought he probably should have been; Dreadwing was known for coming up with the most evil dares!

"You know how our medic thinks you have a sexy kiss…"

"Dreadwing! If he didn't hear that in the first place, he doesn't need to hear it now!" Knock Out interrupted him, instantly regretting it when everyone looked at him. They all saw the blue blush covering his cheeks.

"He does, does he?" Breakdown smirked; apparently liking to tease his friend.

"Yes, he said so… Anyway, I dare you to kiss him. On the mouth, if that wasn't already apparent."

"I see that you still can create the most evil dares, Dreadwing." Starscream smirked; glad he wasn't on the receiving end of this one!

"I only hope that Skyquake isn't like his twin in that respect." Airachnid whispered and it made Starscream shudder just thinking about it.

"Hey, you going to come over here Knocks, or do I have to go to you?" Breakdown asked.

"You mean you're…?"

"Going to do it? Yeah. That's kind of the point." Knock Out's cheeks went darker blue in response, before he walked over beside Breakdown.

"How are we doing… this?" Knock Out whispered.

:: How about like we did in the corridors? :: Breakdown commed back.

:: But… I thought you said you weren't into mechs? :: Knock Out didn't sound very sure.

:: I'm not but, how would the rest of them react? :: Both of them now wore identical smirks. Knock Out leant his head forward and the others thought that meant he'd given in. What happened next however, they didn't expect. When Breakdown pushed his mouth against Knock Out's he didn't pull straight back. The other four had a sneaking suspicion the two of them were doing some sort of dance with their tongues and reacted the only way they could; open jawed shock. Breakdown and Knock Out leant back from each other and turned to look at the other four.

"I wish you could see the looks on your faces!" Breakdown told them, before starting to laugh.

"We thought you two…" Dreadwing trailed off, blushing.

"What, you thought we actually were into each other and had kept it secret?" Knock Out smirked, before continuing.

"I'm sure I told you I was into femmes; that would be literally if Starscream hadn't claimed the only one on the Nemesis!" The other three closed their jaws and their cheeks turned slightly blue.

"Who got the next shortest wire?" Breakdown had finally stopped laughing and asked; trying to get on with the game. Airachnid and Skyquake held their wires next to each other.

"That would be me." Airachnid shrugged; she knew which one she was going to pick.

"Truth or dare?" Breakdown asked her.

"I think I'll choose…" She paused for a few nanokliks.

"Truth." Breakdown looked a little disappointed; he had a clever idea for a dare. But he supposed he could twist it into a truth question.

"How many of the high ranking mechs on the Nemesis have you kissed and name them?" He asked, getting the sneaking suspicion he knew the answer; two.

"Three." This made Breakdown's jaw drop.

"You, Knock Out and Starscream." Airachnid then noticed Breakdown's reaction and had to try really hard not to laugh.

"When did you kiss Knocks? I honestly thought you were going to say two."

"It was in the corridors while we were cleaning up. You'd just wandered off when that happened." She clarified. Breakdown shook his head.

"Couldn't resist?" He smirked.

"You are not the only med-bay worker with a hot kiss." She told him. Starscream growled in reaction. Knock Out preened; annoying Starscream more.

"Anyway, I do believe it's my turn to ask the question. So, Skyquake; truth or dare?" Airachnid asked; with a smug smirk. Said mech looked a little nervous.

"Dare?" It almost sounded like he was asking if he could choose that.

"What's your opinion of the Vehicons, Skyquake?" She asked.

"They are helpful and respectful enough." He answered. Airachnid smirked.

"Would you ever consider them worthy of being a romantic partner?" Skyquake looked slightly repulsed.

"Perhaps, if I were into mechs." He answered, trying to avoid looking at Airachnid.

"I dare you to kiss the next Vehicon to come in here." She tried to sound like it didn't bother her. Skyquake looked worried.

"That could be a while; it is one of those days where no Vehicons come in and I'm bored…" Knock Out told them. Airachnid was the only one not paying attention; she was comming a very specific Vehicon.

:: What is it Airachnid? :: She asked.

:: Skyquake does rev your engine, doesn't he? :: The Vehicon femme's cheeks flushed pale blue at Airachnid's wording.

:: Yes, why do you…? :: Airachnid interrupted before she could finish asking.

:: Just checking. You might want to come to the med-bay; if you haven't got any pressing matters to attend to. ::

:: I haven't for once. I'll make my way there now. :: The highest ranked female Vehicon switched off her com and headed towards the med-bay. A couple of kliks later, she reached the door and knocked on it.

"What was that?"

"Probably a Vehicon at the door." Knock Out told Starscream, sniggering at the way he jumped.

"Enter." Knock Out shouted towards the door. It slid open a nanoklik later and sure enough, a Vehicon walked through the door. They slid the door shut behind them.

"Skyquake, why don't you go help out that Vehicon." Airachnid told him out loud, while telling him over com to 'kiss him where a mouth would be on one of us.' This only made Skyquake more nervous. I've never kissed anyone that wasn't family before… I really don't like this… The Vehicon couldn't tell that he was worried however.

"Is there a problem, commander Skyquake?" She asked, trying not to sound nervous.

"Come here." He told her, trying to hide his nervousness. She walked over and stood in front of him. Right… now I have to… He hoped that no one noticed him swallow.

"What is it you needed, commander?" The Vehicon couldn't have made it more awkward than that. I don't suppose he did that intentionally… Frag it. Be a mech. He thought to himself, shaking his head. He then leant down and touched his lips against the Vehicon's mouth plate. She didn't know what she'd been expecting when she'd walked to med-bay; but getting a kiss from the mech she fancied wasn't it! She wasn't sure she could form a coherent sentence at that point. I must be in recharge; I'll probably get woken up by an alarm in a moment. Figuring this was a dream, she headed off out the door.

"I hope you aren't planning to do that to every Vehicon that comes in here." Breakdown innocently commented, making the others snigger.

"Like your twin did!" Starscream told them, making said twin flush.

"Just that one, and only because I was dared to." Skyquake glared at the other mechs. Airachnid quickly sent a com to the highest ranked Vehicon femme; asking if she liked her surprise.

:: I get the feeling this is a dream, and I'm going to be woken up by an alarm in a moment. :: She told Airachnid.

:: I'll show you a picture later then, to prove it wasn't a dream. :: This made the female Vehicon happier. Airachnid then looked around at the others.

"Since there is only one mech left, Knock Out truth or dare?" Skyquake asked, still struggling to believe he'd just kissed not only a Vehicon; but a mech too!

"Well, I suppose I could take the coward's way out and choose truth, but I think I'll choose dare." Knock Out looked pointedly at Starscream, trying to get a rise out of him. When it didn't work, he shrugged.

"Do you know of something the fleshies call 'hypnotism'?" Skyquake asked. Knock Out looked back at him nervously; giving Skyquake his answer.

"I dare you to act like you are hypnotised."

"In that case, say something as if you are hypnotising me." Skyquake smirked; he hadn't expected Knock Out to agree. Skyquake held up his index finger, before moving it back and forth like a metronome. Knock Out obediently followed the finger's movements with his optics.

"Um… You are going to go into a trance and do exactly as we say. When I snap my fingers you will go into a trance." Skyquake snapped his fingers and Knock Out let his arms fall down by his sides, a blank expression on his face.

"You are each allowed to make him do only one thing, and I'll go first." Skyquake told the others.

"Knock Out." The mech seemed to register that someone said his name, as he looked in that general direction.

"Howl like a wolf." Knock Out looked slightly worried; he knew this would make him look an idiot. He reluctantly hunkered down and tilted his head up slightly. It was when he actually started howling that most of the others started laughing at him. They also noticed just the first hints of a blush in his cheeks.

"Who's going to tell him what to do next?" Breakdown asked. Knock Out had tilted his head back up and had howled again just afterwards.

"Why don't I?" Airachnid asked. Skyquake nodded and she turned to the medic currently hunkered down and howling at the ceiling.

"Knock Out, act like a chicken." She said with a smug smirk. He looked worried but stood back up on two legs. He lifted both of his arms up, so they were in front of his chest, his elbows pointing out to the sides. He then began to 'flap' his arms and make a clucking sound. This made four of the group laugh, Knock Out however believed it was all five of them. He then lowered his head and began to 'peck' the ground. Airachnid watched for a few more nanokliks before turning to the others.

"Who's going to go next?" She asked.

"Since Breakdown asked last time, he can ask now." Skyquake told them. Breakdown turned to see what his partner was doing and saw him still bent over, moving his head as though he was pecking the ground and occasionally clucking.

"Knock Out." Breakdown paused. Knock Out looked at him, almost expectantly.

"Act like a puppy." They saw Knock Out looked more worried than last time, before adjusting his pose and 'standing' on all fours. He let his tongue hang out of his mouth, panting. He barked a couple of times, making the others laugh again.

"Can give him commands?" Breakdown asked.

"I presume that is why you chose this particular one." Skyquake answered.

"Sit." Breakdown told Knock Out. He obliged; adjusting his position so he was sat like four legged creatures did.

"Paw." Breakdown walked over beside his partner and put his hand down. Knock Out lifted up one of his hands, closing it in a fist, and placed it on his partner's out-stretched one.

"Good boy." Breakdown rubbed the top of his partner's head, making said mech bark and the others laugh. Except one, doesn't Airachnid think this is funny? Knock Out couldn't help but wonder.

"Roll over." Breakdown told him. The medic reluctantly obeyed, first rolling on to his side then on to his back. Breakdown then knelt down and began rubbing Knock Out's tummy, again telling him he was a good boy. Breakdown then had a mischievous thought and began to wiggle his fingers against his partner's stomach. Knock Out began to fidget, trying to get away from his partner's fingers.

"Stop it…" He mumbled.

"Puppies don't speak." Breakdown told him. Knock Out grumbled, and Breakdown continued to tickle him.

"No tickling!" Knock Out told his partner quietly, at least he hoped it was quietly, and got out of it the only way he could think of. He rolled back over and stood back on all fours.

"Beg, pup." Breakdown stepped back towards the others after telling him this. Knock Out didn't like the sound of that, but assumed a 'sit' position. He then adjusted his pose; so he was stood up in a 'begging' pose. Breakdown smirked and walked back to the rest of them.

"Who is going to tell him what to do next?"

"There's only me and Dreadwing left to do so." Starscream told him.

"I've got the perfect idea. He won't like it." Dreadwing smirked. You probably won't either. He looked over to Knock Out, who was still in a begging pose.

"Knock Out." The mech in question looked to where his name came from, barking a couple of times; much to everyone's amusement.

"Do the 'all hail Starscream' dance." Starscream's optics widened; he wasn't aware that that dance had been given a name. Both his and Knock Out's cheeks went pale blue. Knock Out stood back up, like the others. He then raised one of his hands to his audio; like Starscream had done. The rest of the group didn't speak, but that didn't stop him from pointing forward. Is this how Starscream felt stood behind Megatron? Knock Out wondered, stood completely still with one arm pointed forward.

He then nervously adjusted his pose and paused for a couple of nanokliks before gyrating his hips. Again he noticed Airachnid was the only one not laughing at him.

Unless she had a personality swap with Soundwave; there is no way she shouldn't be laughing at me right now… He thought before a different thought crossed his mind; turning his cheeks bright blue. Unless she is enjoying this for different reasons, maybe that explains why she joined us in the first place. She might have a kink for humiliation… He then noticed that others were looking not at him, but expectantly at Starscream.

"I'll just have to go fetch it." Starscream told them, before heading over to one of the storage closets. He fished something out of it and grabbed an empty energon cube. Knock Out had a sneaking suspicion that it wouldn't bode well for him. Starscream walked back over to the group with a full energon cube in his hands and a smug grin on his face.

"Knock Out." Starscream looked expectantly at the medic; who stopped what he was doing at his name.

"Drink from this, turbo fox." Starscream slid the cube across the floor. That… doesn't look like energon. Knock Out thought nervously, before getting down on all fours and crawling over to the cube. He sniffed at it first before swiping his tongue into the fluid. He instantly recoiled and began shaking his tongue about.

"What the frag is that?! It tastes like soap!"

"Cleaning fluid, of the variety that is used on the floors I'd presume." Dreadwing smirked; realising that Starscream had picked that on purpose.

"Turbo foxes can't talk. They just lap up what they are given in silence." Starscream smirked at Knock Out; who still looked disgusted. He didn't see much way out of this, so put his head back over the cube and lapped at it.

"I think that the turbo fox should wag his tail." Starscream's grin went wider after that comment. Knock Out looked shocked but lifted his head up. That stuff is absolutely horrible… I can't believe I had to swallow it… Knock Out wiggled his aft back and forth a few times before going back to lapping at the cube, reluctantly swallowing the fluid.

"I think he's been tortured quite enough now…" Breakdown told the others.

"Knock Out, stand up." Skyquake told him. Knock Out stood up, quicker than he had reacted to any of the other prompts; he must have really hated drinking the fluid!

"Follow the movement…" Skyquake wiggled his finger back and forth, Knock Out following the movement with his optics.

"When I snap my fingers, you are no longer in a trance." Skyquake snapped his fingers, and instantly wished he didn't.

"Why in Pit did you make me drink that vile fluid? And did you not think that it was funny Airachnid? I was expecting you to be doubled over like the rest of them!" Knock Out instantly voiced his opinions on what he'd been made to do.

"You made me play turbo fox…" Starscream trailed off, hoping that Dreadwing would pick up on his train of thought.

"And you, Starscream and Airachnid tried to make me drink that fluid." Dreadwing apparently had realised.

"And I believe the fleshies say that 'turnabout is fair play'." Starscream told him smugly. Knock Out growled and then looked to Airachnid; expecting an answer.

"I didn't laugh while you were doing all of that, but I'm sure I'll laugh at it later when I play it back." She told him with an innocent smile. Realisation dawned in Knock Out's optics and his cheeks went bright blue. The other four started to laugh again; this time at his reaction.

"You mean you recorded that… humiliation?"

"Of course, and I'll just have to leave it for one of the Vehicons to scatter on the Nemesis' network." She told him.

"Please, don't! I'll do anything!" Knock Out saw the evil grins all of the others gave him.

"Anything?" Airachnid asked innocently. Frag! I did say that out loud…

"What will you have me do?" Knock Out grumbled, sounding defeated.

"Lie down on your back, on one of those berths." Airachnid told him. Knock Out obliged, not seeing what the problem was with this. Airachnid walked over to him and purposely positioned herself over him. Knock Out realised what this must have looked like to the others and began to squirm.

"What are you…?" He asked nervously.

"Put your arms up…" She purposefully whispered, lowering her voice. Is it just me or is she trying to… flirt with me? He thought, nervously doing as she asked. She stuck his arms above his head with some webbing.

"Endure this for half a breem, and I won't put the footage on the Nemesis' network." She giggled, and he wondered what she meant by 'endure'. Endure? Endure what? His train of thought got interrupted by Airachnid gently stroking his sides. Wait… is she doing what I think she's doing?

:: If you are trying to arouse me; that isn't the best place to… :: He trailed off; the stroking felt good. Airachnid had heard his com, but decided not to answer it. He's not going to like this in a moment. She thought, before wiggling her fingers against his sides, instead of stroking them.

"Ah! No!" Knock Out began to squirm, now knowing what she was up to.

"Please… Don't!" He managed to gasp out, between fits of giggles.

"What, are you ticklish Doc?" Airachnid asked innocently. Knock Out would have growled in response; but it was a bit difficult for him to do anything with her tickling him. She decided then to move to his stomach, and tickle that instead.

"Please… stop… it…" Airachnid just about made out what he was trying to tell her. She paused and he muttered something that sounded like 'thank Primus…' in between breaths.

"I can stop…" She paused.

"Really?" Knock Out looked hopeful. Airachnid could have sworn she heard him say his sides were starting to hurt.

"But I'll have to scatter the footage of your dare on the network if I do. I've only been tickling you for about 3 kliks." She told him. The other four couldn't help noticing his cheeks were bright blue; probably due to how loud he was being.

"That's near enough half a breem, right?" He hoped they answered yes.

"What do you think?" Airachnid asked the other four.

"I'd say double it." Starscream told them; being answered by an outraged squawk from Knock Out.

"What do you mean 'double it'? I've never done anything this nasty to you!"

"Knocks is right; it is near enough half a breem." Breakdown could sense an argument; and interrupted before it started.

"I think he could probably take the few nanokliks that are left." Skyquake told them.

"He should take it like a mech this time." Dreadwing remembered the last time this sort of thing had happened.

"Sorry, I agree with the twins." Airachnid told him; in a way that made Knock Out doubt she was sorry. She didn't begin to tickle him again though; which confused him. She leant her head down towards his stomach before looking up at him and sticking her tongue out.

:: What are you up to now? :: He commed her. She didn't deign to answer him and instead ran her tongue across his stomach. Knock Out couldn't help thinking that the sensation felt familiar… Wait… That wasn't a slimy finger, was it? He thought, his cheeks going pale blue for what he thought had to be the hundredth time that solar cycle.

"Airachnid, that is inappropriate!" Starscream shouted at her. She leaned back up and looked at him.

"You don't seem to mind when I do it to you." Her comment made the other three start laughing.

"That's different; I'm your partner!" He shouted at her, his cheeks now turning pale blue. Airachnid shrugged and clambered off Knock Out; releasing his arms as she did so.

"I'd call that half a breem." She told him in a stage whisper; to make sure that the others heard as well.

"How does this game go now?" Skyquake asked, which drew the others back to attention.

"I'd imagine that the fleshies would just start up another round, like with Dares but…" Knock Out was interrupted.

"That isn't how the Dare Club did it." Starscream told them.

"But I think we should do this the way the Decepticon Dare Club did; with a group dare!" Knock Out finished telling them.

AN: I think I'll just leave that there; you'll find out what the others' reactions are to the group dare and what it is in the next chapter! Airachnid is still the only member of the group that knows of the female Vehicons. And maybe Knocks will get his head out of the gutter… or not.
