Tag: Magic Megatron

Even as he frantically dodged Megatron’s attack, Starscream replayed the words in his processor. Soundwave has always been dead? What could that possibly mean? He thought it over as he put more distance in between himself and his angered leader, watching as that massive blade shrunk. So it could chance its size at least, but what else was it capable of?

He listened as Megatron spoke again, not to himself, but to the sword. Clearly it was no ordinary weapon, but did it posses some amount of sentience that he wasn’t aware of? Could the Incubators have given it to him? If not, then how could he have gotten it?

“You can try as much as you like, but you can’t always get everything you want, sir.” Now Megatron was sprinting towards him, looking about ready to slice him in half. Old instincts told him to run, but he stood his ground. What reason did he have to run now? He had no spark to be snuffed, and his pain receptors were now significantly dulled. With that and his new power to give no strength, he had the power to defend himself from the warlord’s attack. 

“I don’t have time for this.” Starscream held his weapon high, summoning a great bolt of lightning to power it up. As soon as the blade was in his range, he brought his riding crop down upon it at full force.

Neither one of them predicted the impact of Starscream’s attack. The second his riding crop struck the volatile blade, electricity slammed through through it and set every cable and wire in his body alight. He twitched and went rigid, vision shorting out along with other non-vital systems in an effort to prevent the surge from causing too much damage.

Optics dark, Megatron fell limp when it was over, transforming back into his true form as the sword retracted into his arm. The weapon was the first to recover, as it didn’t have any circuits that needed to be reset.

//Ugh… Megatron? Megatron, get up! Megatron!//

“No, my lord, don’t you get it?! That’s not Soundwave anymore!” Unfazed by Megatron’s enraged shouting, Starscream waved his riding crop towards the creature behind them. “This isn’t just another anon spell, sir! I know what this is, and there’s no end to it! There’s no way of stopping it without destroying it! That’s the only way to fix this! We won’t be killing Soundwave because Soundwave is already dead!”

Luckily for the both of them, he had seen the approach of one of the beast’s tentacles as it moved towards his leader. When he saw it preparing to grab Megatron, his weapon came to life and sent a bolt of lightning at the appendage to fend it off. The immediate danger cleared, Starscream spoke again. “I am sorry, sir, but there is nothing we can do for Soundwave. There is only what we must do for the others. You can either assist me, or you can stay out of my way.”

”He has always been dead!“ Megatron lunges for the seeker, ducking from flailing tentacles. The sword that would have pierced Starscream’s armor shortens, causing him to miss.

//Starscream has his motives but he is right! Soundwave cannot be stopped like this unless-//

"You were the one that told me my life consisted of proving the impossible. So help me to continue defying fate! It is my duty now to defend all of my subjects, and Soundwave is not an exception!” The dark energon wells in his chest, the crystals adorning his armor glowing even brighter.

//I understand. You have my power, Megatron.// With the affirmation, he charges Starscream again at swordpoint, filling the thick music around them with a battle cry.

Just as Starscream began to advance and prepare to attack, Megatron suddenly reappeared from the veil of darkness surrounding them to block his path. He found a rather sinister blade pointed square at his spark chamber. Somehow he felt less afraid knowing there was nothing in there to be damaged. Feeling a little daring, he gives his lord a defiant look.

“Don’t be a fool! I am beyond capable of destroying it, and I will do it! Did you not listen to what I said? That thing will spread a plague, a curse, within our faction! Mechs will die if we do not stop it! And you would put them all in danger by letting this abomination live just because it was once your mate? You value this one life over the lives of your soldiers? What kind of a leader are you?!”

The end of his riding crop continued to crackle with electrical energy. He had to wonder, if he were to bring it against Megatron’s blade, would the sword’s energy conduct the charge into his frame? “Stand aside, sir. Your emotions cloud your judgement. I won’t allow you to endanger our soldiers for much longer.”

"He is still my mate!” Megatron roared. A voice nagged at the back of his mind, earning a growl from the warrior.

//You were thinking moments ago that you would vanquish this creature without mercy for endangering your people in a time of peace.//

“That is Soundwave, not some mindless beast!" 

//But in this form, he will destroy-//

"Then I will stop him! This magic will end one way or another but I refuse to lose the one mech in this world I would mourn when I’ve already won!” He slashes at the air between them, heedless of the witch approaching him from behind.

Megatron…where was he? Did he leave him? After all these vorns? 

The crystallized orb throbbed erratically, the creatures negative emotions overwhelming the area.

He derserved it after all..or maybe, his Lord never truly cared? Perhaps Megatron still held a grudge against him for serving the Chaosbringer?

Cracks formed on the outer shell, veinlike cables stirring to life, repsonding to thewave of misery emanating from the strange core.

To hell with this world…a world without his Lord, was no one he would tolerate. If he was destined to be alone, then he would rid himself of this fate by destroying everything in his wake.

…If he should suffer, then so should this entire universe…

The farther they went into the realm, the stranger and darker everything became. The very air threatened them with its smell, and his sword kept squirming in his arm. 

//Something is coming… for you!//

Everything shattered and fell around him in twinkling shards. Even Starscream vanished from his vision as an all-consuming darkness roared above, roared his name! It was oppressive, the same pressure he felt on all sides that Unicron had induced. 

“Soundwave… Stop this!”

To Starscream’s surprise, he did not have to go very far from his own quarters before things around him began to change. The further his Soul Gem led him, the more strange things he saw. Soon he found himself surrounded by glittering decorations, crystals and clouds of fluffy energon hanging above his helm. As he traveled further, he heard a haunting tune grow louder and louder around him. He was definitely within the witch’s barrier now, but whose could it possibly be? What could all of these strange things mean?

When the music blared in his audials and his Soul Gem was pulsing wildly, a giant tentacle suddenly appeared and grabbed him and began to pull him deeper into the barrier. Luckily he was able to wriggle one of his arms free in order to summon his weapon. He charged the riding crop and smacked it against the tentacle holding him, making to release him and retreat with an angry roar. Now that he was free, Starscream donned his outfit and prepared himself for battle. Before he could follow the monstrous limb to its source, he found a familiar form nearby.

“My lord?”

The warlord spins, the air around him writhing. The smirk below him has twisted into a sneer and he can feel a growl, but he is not the cause. Something else is here…

“Starscream, what-”

“What are you wearing?”
