~*~*~*
With a little convincing to Starscream, (Y/n) had moved into the ship. In the night, she snuck back into the house through her window and cleared everything out, all except her bike. Now, she lived in a small storage space the Decepticons had cleared, everything with her. It was weird living with them, but at least she didn't have to hide herself anymore. It had been maybe a week since Megatron had perished, and already Starscream had changed for the worst. She started to develop a small distaste for him, but she brushed it off for work.
Being a second-in-command was a whole new experience for (Y/n). It was a good position, but she questioned if she was really qualified for it. She didn't understand why Soundwave didn't get the position - she was a human.
My hunger for dark energon might've said different, she thought. Shaking her head, (Y/n) made her way outside of the room. There, Soundwave waited. He picked (Y/n) up and began to walk to the control center. (Y/n) had been a little torn up about Megatron's death, unlike others, but Starscream didn't seem to grieve at all. It made (Y/n) question what he really was about, since she (who only knew him for two days) grieved for Megatron and yet the bot with possibly the most time spent with him...it made her brain hurt.
Entering the control room, (Y/n) noticed Starscream mumbling to himself. It seems he was alone in here - she guessed the Vehicons had followed her orders in docking the ship today. The Vehicons that had come back before Megatron accidentally offed himself, were pretty weak. Soundwave had explained that dark energon could easily make others fatigued the first few times they encounter it. The Vehicons that didn't go seemed overworked, she knew Starscream would keep working them; so she ordered them to have a few days off as her first order of business.
It seemed Starscream didn't notice, he was watching something on the control screen. Man, the Cybertronians really loved this room. Starscream noticed Soundwave walking up behind him, and turned to greet them.
"Ah Soundwave, (Y/n)," he nodded to each, getting a nod from them back. "Soundwave, cue the audio/visual. I wish to address the troops."
"But they have the day off." (Y/n) remarked, crossing her arms.
"Relax, I am only going to address them." Starscream glanced at her, then to the screen when it finally turned on. "The loss of Megatron - Leader of the Great Decepticon Uprising - is certainly a blow to our cause. Yet, we mustn't despair over his tragic demise, but instead embrace his ultimate sacrifice..."
(Y/n) narrowed her eyes in a glare.
"...and the foundation he laid, with an even mightier hand!"
"With all due respect, commander Star..." A Vehicon sounded below the walkway. Starscream and his two officers looked in the direction of said Vehicon. "...er, Lord Starscream..."
"Yes, yes, what is it?" Starscream asked, annoyed, while (Y/n) gave the Vehicon a proud look. It's not often that she found the Vehicons voicing their opinions, and now she was second-in-command, she urged them to do so.
