Soundwave listened to the conversation and was now having  a war within his mind... Should the flight commander remain missing... Or inform his master about the incident...

He doesn't know which one to do... He wants his master to not get involved in distractions... Yet his desire to please him levels with his doubts...

May Primus help him...

Nightfall sat on the farthest corner of the brig... Which Isn't that far because her 'cell' is small... Compared to the brigs on their ship.

"... Couldn't be that bad.. Can it..? "She said to absolutely no one but herself and let out a sigh.

She stared at the ground... Thinking... Thinking on where did she go wrong-
".... Tch. Wrong my aft. Why am I regretting my actions. It was for the greater good. " she mumbled... But then frowned... Was it really for the greater good? Her faction had started a war that caused the death of their planet, causing them to seek refuge among the stars.

The femme groaned loudly as she drag her servo across her face, and hearing the automatic doors open, revealing the large green autobot with a cube of energon in hand

"Didn't think you'd get bored easily" Bulkhead said as he entered and went towards the female decepticon, placing the said cube within her reach
Nightfall stared at the energon at to the autobot, her optic ridge twitched upwards as if questioning the bot's actions

"Hey, don't give me that look! The doc sent me to bring you some rations, at least be thankful for it! "

"How can I be so sure that, that doctor of yours didn't spike it. "

"Why in the all spark would Ratchet do that?? Never mind... I brought you the energon so I must be going now, Miko might do something rash"

And the autobot walked out of the cell and back to the main hangar, where the three humans usually hang around

"Did she drink it?"

"Con's suspects you put something in the energon and probably won't drink it"

"Hah! As if I'd do that. If I were to put something in it I'll make sure that it will put her in stasis for a long while" Ratchet said, his digits typing on the monitor, as per usual, researching things, and keeping an eye out for any strange events or signals.

"I'd like to see this decepticon you guys captured!! " Miko said as she gripped the bars of the railings leaning forward

"Not a chance! "

"Come on Ratch! It's just for a few minutes!! "

"It's dangerous, plus she's not a regular con within Megatron's armada! "

Miko grumbled as she crossed her arms, stomping over to the couch and slumping beside Raf, who was playing that racing game
"Well, you can't force Ratchet to let you see the con... "

"He always makes the orders, even Bulk won't take me in there! "

"... Is she really that dangerous?? "
The boy asked, glancing over his shoulder to look at the autobot medic who let out a forceful sigh while shaking his helm

"Any decepticon that is on the official ranks, will be deemed dangerous, to humans like you!"

Ratchet says, the annoyed tone of his voice cannot be unnoticed as he only wanted to work in peace and quiet, but with these humans around he simply cannot, even though he doesn't mind Raf's presence, the kid is quite reserved anyways, though he couldn't say the same for Miko, who was the exact opposite

                        *   *   *   *   *

The search for the femme had been going on for quite a while now, but they all came back with the same answer. Something Megatron wasn't pleased to hear.

"My lord, I do believe that Nightfall has ran away, deserting the decepticon cause and more importantly her leader. " Airachnid spoke as she stood from the sides, her purple optics blended with the Nemesis' lights, the silver warlord turned to look at the insecticon

"Nightfall has been a loyal soldier of mine.  Treachery has never been one to cross her path. " He said calmly, but everyone knows, that deceiving tone of their leader, he was never calm. So Megatron returned his gaze to the huge window panel, showing the earth's night sky...

Airachnid frowned as she remained silent after that statement and has decided to respect his wishes

"But for now. We'll have a new chain of command. "

"What exactly do you mean, my lord?"

"You will be Second in Command, while Starscream would be the Air Commander for now. "

Megatron frowned and hummed, his optics still focused on the night... Which didn't help his current mood, he wouldn't admit it, but he was missing the femme... And he was doubting that one of his officers has something to do with her disappearance. 

He'll have to put his trust on Soundwave at the moment..
