Steve gave a rough yank, and the hunk of metal finally came free. He stumbled back a bit, the added weight throwing his balance, but he was luckily near a wall, and didn’t fall flat on his aft. Any day Steve didn’t end up doing that, he considered a good day. Not that there would have been anyone here to see him, of course, in the silent mess of the scrap room, but he’d take what he could get. Steve set the piece on top of the pile of several smaller bits of scrap. He wasn’t really sure how much Knock Out needed, since all he’d said was “enough to cover the back side of the wing”. Being a grounder h

Knock Out was at Starscream’s side faster than he thought he was capable of moving. The seeker’s eyes were only open in narrow slits, but they were open nonetheless. Knock Out had never seen any bot awaken from stasis lock quite that quickly. Looks like Starscream’s ability to endure hadn’t just been dark humor. Starscream began struggling to sit up, and even the minimal amount of effort that took made his whole body shake. He was alive, but his body was probably burning with pain from his various injuries. Knock Out put a reassuring hand on the seeker’s chest, gently pushing him back on to the berth. “Eas

“Absolutely not. Under no circumstances.” Ratchet folded his arms over his chest. “It was bad enough having to coming patch up his aft for intelligence. You think I’m going to degrade myself, helping Starscream of all bots, for free?” Knock Out didn’t comment on how he had always known there was no way Starscream could have kept himself that safe while he was out on his own without someone patching him up. He knew the comment would only agitate Ratchet more, and that was something he didn’t need right now. Really, he’d expected this kind of reaction from the crotchety old medic. The minute tha

The early morning sun made Cybertron gleam. Gazing upon his newly-restored home brought a warmth to Knock Out’s spark, something he hadn’t felt in quite some time. He waited outside the Nemesis, leaning against the hull by the loading bay, lost in the luster of the home world he never thought he’d see again. The sentimental musings were almost enough to take his mind off the fact he was waiting for Smokescreen and Wheeljack for a retrieval mission. The very thought of having to deal with them for an entire drive to Kaon brought about the twinges of a headache, and he rubbed his face with a well-manicured hand, as he let out

Once upon a time, there was a young couple that lived in a prosperous kingdom. Although they were by no means rich, they loved each other dearly, and their marriage was happy. Naturally, it was not long before they welcomed a new child into their home, a son, whom they named Adam. Adam was a happy, curious child, who loved to toddle about and explore the woods near his parents’ cottage, on the outskirts of town. His parents often warned him of the mischievous fairies and great beasts that lived therein, but the small child was not afraid of them. If a fairy or a great beast were to approach him, he vowed to befriend it, for who in this

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful young man named Cobra Commander. He lived in wealth and happiness in a beautiful home, beloved by many, none more than his father. This happiness, however, was not to last. A widower, the Commander’s father decided that his son needed a motherly influence in his life, and wed Serpentor, who had two sons of his own, Mindbender and Destro. Soon though, the poor Commander’s father died, leaving the Commander in the care of his stepfather and stepbrothers. It was then that Serpentor, Mindbender, and Destro revealed their true nature - all three were haughty, wicked, and cruel to the poor Comma

My Little Pony, My Little Pony, ah-ah-ah-ahhhhh If at all possible, Starscream’s scowl deepened. He still couldn’t believe he’d let his human talk him into this. For the past several days , Shae had been incredibly giddy and excited, and Starscream could not fathom a reason why. After all, it was still the dead of the accursed season of winter, and, it seemed to him anyway, that she was spending most of her days complaining about what a horrible person she was for not working harder. This would eventually devolve into calling herself petty names, making herself feel even worse, and she would grab Starscream and Toofless in

When Starscream opened his optics, he was shocked to no longer see the dreary gray sky out the window. Instead, he was greeted by pitch black, broken only slightly by a lone street lamp. His head still fuzzy with sleep, he found himself wondering just where the fark he was right now. When he tried to move his arms and legs, maybe regain some feeling in them, he found them constricted by a fluffy shell of some sort. A brief flicker of claustrophobic panic shot through his spark as he realized he was trapped. Then something in his processor belched up the memory of Lavender swaddling him in a towel. This calmed him down considerably. True, it
