Vulnerable (TFP Megatron x F!Reader) ✔️

I didn't post this yesterday cause I didn't get home till like, almost 2 am I think. I was so tired.

Warnings: Reader's developing something; Knockout taking your blood again; Megatron pretty much betraying you but saying nvm later; angst; cussing

There's a reason why reader seems so off this chapter

Thank you, stay safe, and enjoy the chapter! :)

      Megatron had agreed that coming back a week early would be beneficial to (Y/n)'s health, as did Knockout. (Y/n) reported a new Autobot had been recruited, and gave them the designation of Smokescreen. They were able to find him in the Cybertronian database.

      However, currently, (Y/n) was looking through the files from M.E.C.H. again, trying to see if any information had been skipped over. Knockout was on the other side of the room, checking the vitals of those he had taken. Flipping through, he compared the energon to (Y/n)'s blood, until he saw something irregular in it. Knockout quirked a brow plate.

      "(Y/n), would you mind giving me another sample? I need to compare." Knockout asked.

      (Y/n) winced, but wordlessly rolled her sleeve up and put her veins on show for the doctor. Quickly, it was over, and (Y/n) was about to ask what it was for, until the monitor beeped. Both of them looked over, and saw Breakdown's image pop up. Both of them gasped as the Cybertronian read online.

      Both of them bolted out of the medbay, through the halls, past crowds of lingering Vehicons, and into the bridge. Megatron turned to them, quirking a confused brow plate. (Y/n) put her hands on her knees, trying to catch her breath.

      Knockout spoke first. "My Lord! Check Breakdown's life status!"

      Megatron rolled his optics. "Knockout, you-"

      "Do as he says!" (Y/n) snapped.

      Megatron looked at her for a moment before looking at the monitor, tying away. Breakdown came up, his status online, and it even showed a location. He looked back at them.

      "Do you think it's some sort of horrific M.E.C.H. trap?" (Y/n) growled. "I saw him with my own eyes, dead..."

      "It also seems...corrupted." Knockout said, painfully disbelieving.

      "Investigate with caution. (Y/n), you stay." Megatron looked at her.

      (Y/n) nodded and watched Knockout leave with some Vehicons through a groundbridge. She wanted to believe that it was Breakdown, she wanted it to be Breakdown, but the memory of seeing him freshly dead in front of her, his dried energon in her hair and on her skin and clothing...

      "(Y/n), are you alright?" Megatron asked.

      (Y/n) looked up at Megatron. "Yeah, just...feeling all over the place."

      Megatron nodded, then kissed the crown of her head. He continued to talk to her about her morning so far, what she had been up to with Knockout, and how she was mentally holding up. (Y/n) felt engulfed by happiness and love, feeling cared for by her sparkmate.

~*~*~*

      Although, that didn't last long. Knockout brought back a Cybertronian alright, and he looked like Breakdown too, but...it wasn't him. It was Silas in Breakdown's body. (Y/n) stood horrified behind Megatron, glaring at him.
