HhctbChapter 46

I hope this isn't giving too much away. took an hour
and ten minutes to write. it was scary fast.Okay, trying this again. I know this is pissing people
off but with my schedule change, I have been getting
really tired by four in the afternoon. I can't even
force myself to fall back asleep. I'm trying right
now, forcing myself to stay up. Hope this doesn't turn
out like shit. I am so having a shitty day. Be happy
I'm not writing when I'm angry. There would have been
so much rape. I was so pissed; I think my poster may
have been scared of me, if she was more awake. I so
hate guys right now. Now I know why so many females
decide to turn lesbian. The more time I spend with
guys, the more I realize just how stupid they are. If
there is a god, there is no way in hell that it's a
guy. It's must be a chick, with a wicked sense of
humor. Oh, and my poster wants me to tell you that at
some point we may be writing a completely side story
of that new Transformers Animated series that just
came out. It'll have almost no relation to the other
Transformer stories that I have been writing. I've
tried fitting it into the timeline that we had figured
out and it just doesn't fit. Alternate Universe works
but other then that, not really.Everyone was staring at the monitor. What was going on
up there? Rattrap was hitting the computer. He had to
get it to start working.
"Alien anomaly destroyed."
"Oh yeah for that hunk a junk, where's Optimus?"
"Unit Optimus Primal…"

"…Destroyed."
Everyone was overjoyed to hear that.
"Megatron, you finally did it."
"Wazzpinator happy to zzee alien machine gone."
"Yesss, I am good aren't I? But we can discuss my
brilliance later. We have work to do."
"What kind of work?"
"The Predicon kind."
Megatron sent everyone to his or her stations and
headed for his own. He just had to check on something
first.Black Arachnia was running around the Maximal base
trying to find a way out, Tarantulas still messing
with her mind from the inside. Not realizing that a
quantum surge was heading their way. Everyone was
being thrown all over the ship. A few even started
glowing. Something was wrong. The same was happening
over at the Predicon base. Before Megatron could even
make it to his post, he was hit. Waspinator fell into
the CR chamber. Terrorsaur and Scorpinoc hit each and
fell into the lava pits. The very last thought going
threw their minds were, how did she know? Before
passing out, Megatron felt the power surge. It took a few moments for him to regain consciousness.
Waspinator came out of the CR chamber and stared at
Megatron. He didn't get a clear view of him but knew
that he had grown in height. Megatron left Waspinator
in the main control room and headed for his quarters.
He had to check on Samantha. She had to be back by
now. He had ordered everyone back to the base before
the attack happened. He opened the doors to find the
room was just as it was left. Some things had fallen
on the floor but that was because of vibrations. He
looked under her blankets and all over the room.
Nothing. She was gone. He was beginning to panic. He
ran out of his room and got Waspinator to follow him.The Maximals had found Black Arachnia outside of their
base with Tarantulas' body. Airazor had shot down onto
the floor. (Did anyone else notice that she was like
spread eagle for a while? I'm not a pervert. I just
notice things.) A shot came out from nowhere and
blasted both Airazor and Tigertron away. Black
Arachnia turned her attention to the sky to see
Megatron floating down towards her.
"Megatron am I ever glad to see…"
He had hit her. He was absolutely furious, partially
because of her betrayal with Tarantulas and partially
because Samantha was missing. Once he dealt with this
matter he'd look for her. Then it hit him, if Inferno
was on a mission for him, who was watching his child?
Yet another thing to deal with, it just wasn't worth
being leader anymore. He settled with Black Arachnia
and was preparing to fight.Rattrap and Cheetor just got over what their new
bodies had looked like. They were trying to get Rhinox
and Dinobot out and ready for action. Dinobot just
stared at Rattrap while he explained the situation to
everyone. Dinobot spun one of Rattrap's wheels.
Rattrap shoved him away.
"It's a definite improvement, but in your case that's
not difficult."
"Oh yeah?"
Rattrap motioned that he was ready to fight him.
Dinobot was about to when Rhinox pulled them apart.
Dinobot took offense to the fact that Rhinox was
giving all the orders.
"What makes you think I should follow you? With
Optimus gone I should…"
Rhinox picked him off of the floor. Which is pretty
amazing considering that Dinobot is taller then him.
"I'm in a bad mood, understand?!"
Dinobot barely managed to speak, but he nodded in
compliance. Rhinox dropped him and started to give out
the orders. Rattrap and Cheetor headed outside to see
if Tigertron and Airazor had found Black Arachnia yet.
As soon as they were out, they were ambushed. Cheetor
was targeting Waspinator while Rattrap was looking for
his opponent. Megatron was still bickering with Black
Arachnia. She wanted to listen to him but Tarantulas
was forcing her to take off and risk her life. That
did it. Megatron was going to kill her later. He found
Rattrap watching the other battle and fired on him.
Rattrap used his shield to block the shots.
"Whoa, skin this action, Megatron went and got
himself some kinda nutty face lift."
"You haven't seen anything yet vermin. Beast mode."
Megatron showed off his new form. He was larger, a
deeper purple and had jets.
"So, you wanna play chicken huh."
Both raced towards each other, Rattrap in his vehicle
mode and Megatron with his roller skates. (I really
don't know what else to call them.)
"Prepare yourself vermin to feel my power."
At the last moment, Rattrap turned and stretched out
his tail. Megatron went flying forward. Rattrap
transformed and watched him fly.
"Oh yeah power you got, brains is another story."
Megatron stood back up. There were many things driving
him to the brink of insanity. It was almost like he
was going Galvatron. (But we will never let that
happen.)
"You'll pay for that one vermin."

Before Dinobot and Rhinox had a chance to join the
battle, Inferno had gotten them from behind. He
managed to get Rhinox out of the way but Dinobot was
another problem. Dinobot had hid himself behind the
table. After Inferno had stopped to gloat, he used his
eyes to shoot Inferno's gun out of his hand.
"I don't need a weapon to defeat you traitor."
Inferno just lunged at Dinobot. (Okay, I'm going to
point out the obvious, that scene reminded me of when
Rumble jumped on Skywarp for threatening his brother
Frenzy. That and it looks like Inferno is trying to do
some very bad things with Dinobot and it has nothing
to do with fighting.) Both of them locked fingers and
were fighting for dominance. Rhinox soon intervened
and pulled him off, throwing him through the elevator
shaft. Megatron turned as he heard something come out.
He left Rattrap and Cheetor lying in their pile to
help Inferno.
"Royalty, you've come for me."
(I've so got to stop working with Mike. You can't help
but think sick forever after.) Megatron looked up to
see Rhinox pointing his guns at him.
"I think it's time for a tactical retreat."
Megatron transformed, grabbed Inferno and flew out of
there. Waspinator had left long ago. Now after some
restoration, they'd go and look for Samantha.
Meanwhile, there were stasis pods everywhere trying to
wake up. Some succeeding before they could get beast
forms, thus killing themselves before their time.
Others remained dormant.

Samantha was almost through. She hoped no one had
noticed how long she was gone, or that the baby was
gone too.
"This is taking way too long. Fuck it."
She pulled out some small explosives she had packed
with her just in case.
"Okay. I know this is more Rattrap's sort of thing
but I have to get in there."
She braced the upper wall with some heavy sticks and
set up her explosives near the base of the mountain.
She lit the fuse and got to a safe place. She plugged
her ears and waited for it to go off. She watched as
rocks went flying past her hiding place. She looked up
and seen a nice looking hole. She stood up and lightly
clapped her hands together, keeping her palms together
and clapping with just her fingertips.
"Yay."
She looked into the cave and saw how dark it was. She
picked up a small but thick stick and wrapped some
fabric she had torn from the bottom of her skirt
around it.
"I haven't had to do this in a while, I hope I still
can."
She closed her eyes and concentrated on her throat.
She inhaled deeply and unleashed a flame from her
stomach. Once she noticed the stick was on fire, she
turned her head and started coughing. She nearly
choked.
"I forgot how much that hurts in this form."
She bent over one final time and coughed up some
blood. She got up and held her throat. She couldn't do
anything about it now. The deeper she got into the
cave, the brighter it got. There was lava everywhere.
But some of the rocks had survived in the lava, acting
as stepping-stones. There was no time for her to care.
She removed her shoes and socks and walked on the top
of it. It felt like walking on hot coals, you just
need to find the cool spots. This was just a little
harder. It was liquid. Another thing she hadn't done
in a while. Once on the other side, she looked at the
bottoms of her feet.
"Well, at least I'm not totally singed."
She poked her sole and in stung for a moment. She
walked up to the mass standing in front of her. It was
still asleep. There may be no point in waking it now.
But she did find it. There was an upside. She just
didn't want to blast that hole shut again without
leaving with something. She touched its side. It
started up.
"Pass code."
"…Oh shit. I forgot about this. I haven't put in a
code yet."
"Pass code."
"Wait Teletran I'm trying to figure that out. Oh god
what was it?"
"If you do not have the Pass code, you must vacate
the premises before I open fire."
"Alright. But I'll be back with that code. I know I
gave you one before. It's just been too long."
"I shall await your return."
Samantha turned and headed back over the lava, picked
up her things and climbed back up the cliff leading
out into the open world. She grabbed her other charge
and blasted the cave shut. At least she knew where it
was. That's all that mattered. Now getting inside
would be the fun part. And knowing Megatron, when she
got back, if he noticed her missing, she wasn't going
to be leaving his side anytime soon. She rubbed her
throat. Talking to Teletran had reopened her wounds.
She was literally drinking her own blood.Megatron and the others had finished with their
repairs and were about to head out. Waspinator was
already flying around looking for her. He spotted
Samantha walking back on fresh grass near a small
stream. She wasn't too far from the base but still it
would have taken her till nightfall by foot. He flew
down to greet.
"Where hazz Zzammy been? Megatron worry."
Oh god. He noticed. She looked at him but still found
it hard to speak. Her throat still didn't heal from
the fire incident. She didn't speak to Waspinator; she
just got on his back when he landed. He flew back to
the base. Inferno had just left the base when he
spotted them.
"ROYALTY!"
He ran back inside to find Megatron. This was big. She
was back. Megatron was still looking all over the base
for his child. The only conclusion he had come to was
that it wandered into the lava and met its end. Good
riddance he thought. Yet something still felt wrong.
That feeling of loss came over him. Oh Primus Samantha
was right. He had grown attached to her and he wanted
her back. It may have come from rape, it may have been
ugly, but it was still his. Dare he say he loved it
just the same? Inferno came running around the corner,
screaming. Megatron was hunched over the lava, lost in
his own mind.
"Royalty, we…"
Megatron's reflexes were working on overtime. His hand
shot up and grabbed Inferno by the throat. He stood up
slowly and looked him in the eye.
"Why weren't you watching her?"
Inferno couldn't speak. His voice box was being
crushed. He struggled to get out but it wasn't
working.
"Why weren't you there with the child?"
"But… you…"
Megatron loosened his grip to hear him out.
"You ordered me to follow the spiders to the Maximal
base. Samantha was supposed to watch it."
"But did you wait for her to show up to take the next
shift."
"No… but…"
"No more excuses. I've lost both of them now."
Megatron was torn between falling down to the floor
and killing Inferno just for being in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
"But you don't understand Royalty, we found her,
she's on her way back to the colony."
"The child?"
His eyes widened.
"No. The little royalty."
That was just as good. He dropped Inferno and ran to
the front of the base. He ran right past Waspinator.
He skidded to a stop.
"You found her, where is she?"
"Zzhe izz in her room looking for you."
He shoved him out of the way and dashed for his room.
Sure enough, there she was fixing up the place. She
looked up and smiled at him. He was at his limit,
anymore and he would go insane. He rushed over to her
and they both ended up on the floor. She couldn't get
him off of her.
"Um… Megatron…"
"Don't say anything. I'm deciding what to do with
you."
"Am I in trouble?"
She heard him start to laugh next to her ear. She knew
she was in trouble.
"You have no idea, no."
He bit her ear. He knew she hated that. He stayed on
her.
"You know, I'm not letting you out of my sight from
now on."
She was right. Of course she was. She spent many years
with many Megatron's. She knew their personalities by
now.
"Can I get up now?"
"No. Not until after you answer my questions."
"Okay…"
"Where were you? Where's the child?"
The top of his foot brushed against the bottom of
hers.
"Why are you injured?"
She swallowed. It still hurt. She lurched forward. He
held her down, not letting her move. Once she stopped
moving, he looked at her. There was some blood coming
out the side of her mouth. He got off her and placed
his hand on her back. She was in another coughing fit.
She stopped but still looked at the ground with her
mouth open. Some blood still fell from her mouth. She
looked back up and wiped the corner of her mouth.
"I was out walking, looking at all of the scenery, I
saw the explosion in the sky and tried to hide but it
threw me too close to a lava pit and I got a little
hurt."
He moved over to her feet but didn't touch them. He
knew she would cry. But he so wanted to.
"I'll be fine Megatron. Nothing went wrong. I'll
heal."
He lifted up her leg. She slid against the floor and
up towards him. He kissed the top of her foot. He
looked so hurt. She didn't think he was that
sensitive. This was turning out like that other
Megatron. The personalities kept changing.
"At least your back with me. Now if I only knew where
the baby was."
"She's not a baby anymore Megatron. And she's fine. A
few days ago, I took her from Inferno. I didn't even
tell him I took her. He seemed preoccupied with
something else. I found a good home for her."
"Where?"
"I left her with some of the early humans. They love
her. I kept watching her to make sure she wouldn't end
up abandoned."
"So that's where you were. You took the child without
my consent."
Now his anger was starting to come back. He was
returning to normal.
"I'm sorry Megatron. But I thought it would be best."
She heard Megatron breathe heavy out his nose. She
lowered her head. He dropped her foot and turned her
back onto her butt. Her back was to his chest.
"I suppose you did all you could."
"I still plan on teaching her things, like how to
speak and how to write. That way, when she's older,
you can see her and communicate."
"And you don't think she'll have abandonment issues?"
"Most children at that age don't remember much, and
if they do, they have great memory retention."
He sighed and held her tight.
"By the way…"
He looked down at her; she felt the warmth of his
breath on her neck.
"What happened to you? You got taller."
He couldn't help himself. He started laughing again.
Maybe he had finally gone nuts.
I am evil, yesss
