Starscream A Transformers Story

Arrived at Last

Bumblebee and his team lead them to the scrap yard where Starscream and Knock Out explained what had gone down on Cybertron. And what had happened since they came to Earth.

And Bumblebee and his team plus some members of team Prime who were visiting. (Arcee, Smokescreen, Wheeljack, Bulkhead and team Prime's newest member Hot Rod.) Agreed to help.

Then Starscream and Knock Out introduce them to Spotlight and DeAnn. And they all became friends with both of them right away.

"So where's Ultra Magnus?" Asked Knock Out.

"He stayed on Cybertron which means unfortunately he's either under mind control or right in the middle of all that mess." Wheeljack explained.

"We need to find Optimus he could help up figure out what our next move should be." Said Bumblebee.

"I managed to hide the Matrix so it's safe." Starscream told them.

"Good but don't tell any of us where that way if any of us are captured or put under mind control Liege Maximo won't be able to get us to tell him." Bumblebee suggested.

"Good plan." Said Hot Rod.

"I haven't told anyone the location where I hid the Matrix of Leadership except for DeAnn." Starscream explained.

"And I promise not to tell anyone." DeAnn chimed in.

"Ok now we just need to find Optimus, stop Liege Maximo and save Cybertron." Said Smokescreen.

Then they spent the next few hours discussing what to do about Liege Maximo and Warsiren who Starscream told them about.

And were trying to think of where to look for Optimus Prime and how to free everyone on Cybertronian from mind control.

Later that evening Starscream was standing in part of the scrap yard by himself when he saw Arcee coming and braced himself knowing after what he'd done to Cliffjumper during the war she would always hate him and he didn't blame her.

But what happened next surprised the seeker.

"Starscream I heard about what happened to Sky Fire and I'm sorry for your loss." Arcee told him. "I know how it feels to lose someone."

"I'm sorry about Cliffjumper if I could take back everything I did in the war I would." Starscream said to her. He was trying to hide the fact that he was holding back coolant tears but failed to keep his voice from cracking.

"I forgive you Starscream." Arcee told the seeker. "Cliff wouldn't want me to hold a grudge and you're changing for the better." "And I think he would forgive you too."

"Starscream your an Autobot now and as much as we wish we could erase or change the past we can't all we can do is move on and try to do better for those we've lost." She added.

Then they hugged. But then heard a crash and saw that Bulkhead had crashed into some energon cubes because he had walked by just in time to see them hug and was so distracted he forgot to watch where he was going.

Then Grimlock who had heard them ran out and hugged them both.

"That was so beautiful." "It's great that you two could make up like that so we're all friends now." Grimlock told them lifting them both off the ground.

"Yes we're friends now." Said Arcee.

"Um Grimlock your crushing us." Starscream spoke up.

"Oh sorry sometimes I don't know my own strength." The dinobot apologized and if he was human he would have been blushing.

Then he put them both down and Bulkhead walked over rubbing his helm and they all four laughed.

Meanwhile Knock Out was helping Fixit clean out the command center when Sideswipe came over.

And he started talking with him. Only when he brought up Spotlight Knock Out seemed a little hesitant.

"I heard from DeAnn that you saved Spotlight's life when you two were in a cave in." Said Sideswipe.

"Well of course if I didn't I wouldn't be a very good medic would I." Knock Out explained. But Sideswipe noticed how Knock Out looked across the scrap yard to where she was standing.

"Dude your total into her aren't you?" Sideswipe asked him.

"Huh we're just friends." Knock Out told him as he accidentally hit a pipe with his drill and made water spray everywhere. "Oh scrap I'll talk more after I help fix this."

"Ok see you later." Sideswipe said to him. "He's got it bad." He thought to himself as he walked off.

Meanwhile Strongarm noticed Spotlight standing by herself watching Knock Out fix a pipe from afar.

"Hey Spotlight." Strongarm greeted her causing the other femme to jump.

"Oh hey." Said Spotlight calming down.

"Sorry about that." Strongarm told her. Then a thought struck her. "Wait do you like Knock Out?" She asked having noticed the way Spotlight had been looking at him.

"Yes." Spotlight admitted.

"So you like him like him?" Strongarm asked.

"Yeah how did you know?" Spotlight asked her.

"I'm learning to be a detective." Strongarm explained.

Then Spotlight told her all about how she met Knock Out and everything that happened on the way to the scrap yard.

"Wow he saved your life that's so romantic." Strongarm told her.

"Yes but I can't tell him how I feel now because what if he thinks I only like him because he saved me." She explained. "But I actually liked him even before that."

"You should tell him how you feel." Strongarm said to her.

But just then Arcee called Spotlight over to help with something.

Then Strongarm bumped into Sideswipe who told her about Knock Out.

"So he likes her too." Strongarm asked Sideswipe.

"Yeah he's fallen hard." Sideswipe explained.

"So since neither of them wants to tell the other how they feel why don't we help them get together?" Said Sideswipe.

"Normally I wouldn't get involved in one of your plans but this is for romance so I'm in." Strongarm agreed and the two shook hands.

Later that evening Starscream picked up on a signal and went to investigate it knowing since he was the only flyer he could escape quicker if it was a trap. DeAnn saw him leaving and decided to come too.

So he let her come with him to see what the signal was on the condition that they'd land ten feet from where the signal was where he'd let her out of his jet mode then go on by himself and come back and get her once he knew it was safe.

And if he didn't come to get her in 20 minutes to call the scrap yard for help. And she agreed.

And the two flew off to find out where the signal was coming from.

To Be Continued.

Sorry if this chapter was slow this was just a filler to set up a lot of action and some drama that's coming up. So be ready because it's about to get real.
