Chapter 3

Optimus followed Megatron until they came to the forest where Poison Fang had taken and hurt Starscream, Then the former warlord started firing his fusion cannon into the sky.

"Poison Fang come and face me you coward!" Megatron hissed. "You attacked Starscream and Blackarachnia now I want to see how you fair against a former gladiator from the pits of Kaon!"

"Or are you too afraid to fight me!" The former leader of the Decepticons shouted as he challenged the spider mech hoping he was there to hear him, Megatron was angry at Poison Fang for what he did to Starscream and wanted to fight him to the death.

Suddenly Poison Fang came out of seemingly nowhere and tackled the old warlord as the two of them started fighting, Optimus who had let Megatron get a good ways ahead of him rushed forward to try to intervene.

But before he could reach them he saw Poison Fang use his acid on Megatron's optics causing the former Decepticon leader to yell in agony giving the spider a chance to escape while Optimus ran over to check on his friend.

"Megatron are you ok?!" The Prime asked him.

"I need to get to the hospital and have them check my optics!" Megatron grunted in pain. "And I need you to give this to any of the medics."

Then he handed Optimus a small container he had taken from the hospital that had some kind of liquid in it. "It'll help Starscream." He added.

Then Optimus realized that had been Megatron's plan all along he had challenged Poison Fang to a fight and milked some of the spider's cyber venom with out him even knowing it.

But then he noticed something on Megatron's servo, Two fang marks where the Decepticon had been bitten.

"Megatron..." Optimus started before Megatron interrupted him.

"When the antidote is ready make sure Starscream gets it first." Megatron said in an ordering tone before passing out from the cyber venom.

"He will appreciate it Megatron." Optimus told him before calling a ground bridge and taking him to the hospital.

Meanwhile at the hospital Blackarachnia was in Starscream's hospital room worried about him and having convinced Knock Out to go home and get some rest after the red medic had stayed by his brother the entire night and most of that day.

She had finally gotten him to go back to his house to recharge for a bit after telling him that Starscream wouldn't want him to wear himself out and promised to call him if anything changed.

Then Knock Out had helped Ratchet reattach Starscream's wings before going home not wanting to leave his brother without them any longer knowing how important it was to a seeker to have their wings even if Starscream was in a coma Knock Out wanted to make sure he had them when he came out of it.

"Knock Out is really worried about you you know and he's not the only one we both love you and need you to pull through this your a tough bot and surviving this should be no problem for you." Blackarachnia told the seeker as she kissed him on the forehead.

Then she heard Ratchet telling his younger sister Minerva goodbye after Poison Fang's threatening message he wanted her to go to Earth to visit her son and his nephew Medex at the rescue bots academy were she would be safe, Knowing the only way to get her to leave Cybertron was to get her to go visit her son, He didn't want her anywhere near where Poison Fang might show up.

Just then Optimus Prime brought Megatron in and gave the container of cyber venom to Ratchet who took it back to get to work on trying to make an antidote with it but unfortunately it would take a few days to get it ready and there was no guarantee that it would work so they would have to just hope for the best, But they had a chance now.

"Let's wait to tell Knock Out I don't wanna get his hopes up if it doesn't work." Ratchet told the others knowing how hard the whole situation had been on the red spots car.

Then Red Alert who was looking at Megatron's optics spoke up with some bad news.

"His optics are in very bad shape from the acid even if we cure the cyber venom he may be blind from now on." Red Alert explained. "We'll do everything we can but I can't promise anything."

Everyone looked at each other, Megatron had risked everything to help Starscream and even if they both survived he might still have payed a heavy price for it, And they all knew that the former Decepticon leader wouldn't take possibly losing his sight well.

Meanwhile Knock Out had managed to get a little bit of recharge but not much because every time he went into sleep mode he kept having nightmares about Breakdown's death or Starscream dying and both of them asking him why he couldn't save them.

So he got up and got himself a cube of energon and decided to watch a show or movie to get his mind off things he decided against watching a horror movie so he ended up watching Loki but had to turn it off because Loki reminded him too much of Starscream who he was still worried about.

So he decided to go out for a drive and turned his radio on and listen to music while he drove, But suddenly to his horror Poison Fang's trap jaw spider form jump in front of him flipping his alt mode over but Knock Out managed to transform and land on his feet and took off running having been caught by surprise and not being ready or in the right mental state for a fight.

"Where are you going Doctor the fun's just beginning?" Poison Fang shouted after him in a mocking voice.

Knock Out didn't reply he wanted to kill Poison Fang for what he did to Starscream but knew he couldn't win a fight with him and fleeing was his best option.

Knock Out quickly dashed inside his front door and locked it behind him as started to go get his energon prob only to realize he had left it at the hospital.

"Scrap!" He thought to himself in a panic, And suddenly the door to his home was knocked off it's hinges and he was barley able to dodge out of the way.

"Here's Fangy!" Poison Fang bellowed as he started attacking the Aston Martin.

Knock Out was going crazy trying to get away from the spider bot, When Poison Fang ripped off one of his doors and tossed it aside.

"Do you know how hard it is to replace that?!" Knock Out hissed angrily at the damage done to his alt mode by having one of the door yanked off.

The red spots car had already activated his saw and drill but Poison Fang was to fast for him to land a hit.

But Poison Fang managed to get Knock Out with his webs trapping him on the floor, And the red mech was going crazy squirming and jerking around desperately trying to free himself, Just knowing Poison Fang was about to kill him.

"Help!" Knock Out started screaming hoping someone was outside and would hear him and come to his rescue.

But Poison Fang quickly put webs over his mouth to silence him.

"Shh don't worry I don't plan on poisoning or killing you yet." Poison Fang said as he stood over Knock Out who continued to struggle as his optics drated around in fear.

"I'm going to take my time with you, You see I've been spying on you and your friends for sometime now and I've noticed you seem close to a certain two wheeler who was my sister's nemesis and was the one who killed her so I think I could use you to get at Arcee and maybe even lure her in to a trap or something." The spider explained making Knock Out wince not wanting him to harm or go after Arcee.

"Oh and since my sister killed Breakdown it's only fitting I kill you only I'll do it more slowly but unlike Starscream I'll make sure your not in a coma I want you to suffer so Arcee can watch." Poison Fang continued to taunt Knock Out, But bringing up Airachnid killing Breakdown and Starscream being in a coma made him mad and he started struggling harder.

Knock Out was now letting out muffled cries and threatening to break through the webs but Poison Fang noticed and took out a syringe, Knock Out's optics widened when he saw it and he started trying his best to pull away not wanting to be given whatever was in that needle.

"Just a sedative to take the fight out of you." Poison Fang said darkly as Knock Out continued to struggle not wanting to be sedated there was no telling what the spider might do to him if he was drugged and unable to fight back.

"Don't worry this is gonna make you feel real good." Poison Fang mocked as he moved in closer while Knock Out let out muffled screams and made a few more feeble attempts to break free.

"You need to calm down now." The spider bot whispered in Knock Out's audio receptor as he injected him in the shoulder.

Knock Out felt the shot go in and tried some last attempts to break free but his vision was already starting to blurr and his movements were getting weaker as the sedation started to take effect.

Knock Out's helm slumped backwards as his optics fought to stay open.

"Now just relax and let the medicine do it's job, You'll want to sleep now and by the time you wake up you'll be in my hideout where no one will be able to find you."

Then Knock Out's optics rolled shut as he fell into forced recharge then Poison Fang pulled off the webs that were keeping him on the floor and webbed his wrists together and then did the same to his legs in case the red medic came too sooner then expected.

Then Poison Fang tossed the drugged mech over his shoulder and carried him off into the night.

To Be Continued.

Hope this chapter turned out ok, The Here's Fangy part was hannahconkle's idea and I'd also like to thank imholtorf for mentioning the idea of Minerva being Ratchet's sister, I'll try to get the next chapter up soon, In the meantime feel free to send feedback.
