Chapter eight
Above is what Shadowseeker looks like in her bot mode, the darn thing took me 7 hours to do.
The feeling of warmth and energon flooding my systems caused me to stir, the last thing I had seen was the Autobot's simply standing there as I was crushed by ice.
"She's awake prime," I heard an all too familiar Arcee grumble, lifting my helm I opened my optics to see I was once more in the Autobot base but this time I wasn't tied down or in a cage.
"Hush it Arcee, I'm trying to figure out how our new friend here got a bot mode as complex as this," Ratchet huffed angrily, shaking my helm at their conversation I turned my gaze to the one and only Optimus Prime.
"What is with you bots and bringing me back here? I would have happily died under that ice pillar," I joked my tone hinting at my annoyance, this earned a sharp glare from Arcee.
"No one should be left to die, we simply wish for the whereabouts on our friend," Optimus stated, looking down at my chassis I noticed the screen had been cracked in the avalanche.
"It doesn't matter if I die prime, I won't spill any information even if you threaten my life, I won't go to the Allspark after all," I sighed, this had everyone in the base looking at me including the small human pets.
"What's she on about Optimus? I thought all of you went to the Allspark in the end," the tallest of the human mechs questioned, the prime seemed equally as interested.
"I'm an artificial spark, I do not have a carrier nor a sire, I was created by Soundwave using spare parts that he could find, if I die I don't get a chance to meet their all time creator," I explained looking at the small human, Optimus seemed to be in thought.
"You could still come help the Autobot's, live your life on a good path while you still have it," the small femme human stated her helm tilted sideways slightly, shaking my helm I looked away.
"I can't change my mind even if I wanted to, Soundwave and I are linked in a sense, just like a sparkling is to his carrier and sire when they first see each other, he knows when something is up and he always knows my location unless I'm here where even I can't locate a single thing, if I were to join you either way they would always find me and I would be in far more danger than I would be here," I sighed as I began to fix the screen on my chassis, the large blue mech who's arm I remember ripping clean off walked into the room not looking very pleased while a smaller mech who was almost purely silver looked curious.
"So this is the con who tor Ultra here's arm off?" The smaller mech questioned, just from looking at him I knew he was one of the younger bots to have escaped Cybertron.
"Indeed Smokescreen, but let us not dwell on that, our main concern is bringing Bumblebee home," Optimus stated his calm blue gaze sweeping over us all, with a huff I stopped my attempts to fix my broken screen and turned my gaze to the prime.
"I won't give you information on the whereabouts of the Nemesis, your scout Bumblebee is aboard but I won't risk you all ruining what we have," I grumbled knowing any information given would destroy my trust within Megatron's armada, this seemed to agitate a certain two wheeler.
"My patience is running thin Optimus, she's Soundwave's pet for Allspark sake," she snarled crossing her arms, at the word pet my calm attitude turned sour.
"Call me a pet again and I won't hesitate to rip out your spark and give Soundwave my coordinates," I snapped back, this had her stepping closer but a certain prime held her back.
"Shadowseeker we won't let you go until you tell us what we want to know, once we have Bumblebee back we will let you go," Optimus reasoned, shaking my helm I looked away.
"Your spark holds truth dear prime but just because your spark is pure does not mean I will lend over every scrap of information, I am a loyal decepticon follower and lord Megatron will send for me eventually, you will hold me for only a little longer before the others....." I began to grumble before a fist collided with my face sending me falling to the floor, pushing myself up I kept my gaze fixed on where energon had dripped from my mouth.
"Shut your pretty little mouth you piece of scrap! Tell us where Bumblebee is!" I heard Bulkhead snarl, letting out a low chuckle I closed my optics.
"You won't get a word from me, Soundwave made sure to include a certain little function in my circuits to delete any and all information the moment you try to touch it, you do that and my coordinates will be sent through every mainframe in this base telling the Decepticons right where you are," I chuckled as I forced myself to stand, rubbing stray energon from my chin I sent an ice cold glare towards Bulkhead.
"If you do not comply to us asking politely than we will have to acquire that information by force, Ratchet and Bulkhead will see to that, the rest of you, we will go and try to track down our lost friend, Ratchet I trust you to keep us updated on anything you find out," Optimus ordered, with a nod a majority of the Autobot's turned and left leaving me, Ratchet and Bulkhead alone in a very quiet base.
"Let the fun begin," Bulkhead sneered an angry smirk plastered on his face, transforming into my beast mode I backed up slightly knowing all too well how easily Bulkhead could beat me in pure strength but in speed I would destroy him where he stood.
