" I am going whether you like it or not, Soundwave. I won't let those scrap piles destroy Kaon-"
" Which is why I am going with you." Soundwave said, confidently. Solarlight looked at him, his visor hiding his emotions, as always.
" Megatron needs you here. You his right hand mech. And trust me, their won't be any of those 'Autobots' near Kaon when I'm finished with them."
Soundwave sighed lightly at her words. He looked over her sleek framed body, her brilliant white and red armour shining. Her armour followed the contours of her figure, hiding her own weapon systems capable of great damage....like a hunter alluring its prey into a trap. He then turned to look at the sun set on a world on the edge of a new era, for better or worse. Events had been placed. The one called Orion Pax, once one of Megatronus's closest friends, was now Optimus Prime, now the leader of Autobots. The war, he could see, was beginning to destroy everything. It would be a miracle if there was any of Cybertron left for the two fractions when it was all over.
" Soundwave.." He turned back to his spark mate, Solarlight.
" Do you really think you can stop me?" She asked sarcastically. Behind his visor, he smiled.
" No." He answered. He could never cage a spark like hers, he had to let do as she pleased. She smiled, her own red optics shining brightly. She tentatively reached for his visor, and he didn't pull away as he did when she had first tried, not long after they had met while at a gladiatorial contest in the pits of Kaon. She pulled it away as she heard the click. She smiled happier, looking upon the optics that only she ever saw. The kindness and love for her that shone through, the beautiful silver face...She leant up and kissed him gently, and he returned pulling her closer.
" I will be fine. I promise you, I will live to see the era of Cybertron, and under the rule of Megatron, we will live in great and prosperous times, and you and I...shall have our own sparkling, our own place, our own lives...."
" And I promise you, I will fight to make that dream a reality." Soundwave spoke into her audio processors. He embraced her, and he looked back out over the sunset.
" I know you will. But, when you do so, there won't be a Cybertron left for either of us." Her voice changed, and as her looked down at her, he no longer saw Solarlight, but Arcee, staring with cold sparked hatred.
Suddenly, Soundwave stood in the middle of a battle. The wreckage was incarnate, the great cybertronian buildings destroyed, and its glory burning without mercy. The outskirts of Kaon, reminded him of the takes of the destruction caused by the Chaos-bringer.
"For Lord Megatron!" A voice erupted, and all of a sudden, a mech rushed through Soundwave, leaving an icy chill in his spark. Racing to meet the onslaught of the Autobots, amongst the many decepticon warriors, was Solarlight. Soundwave called out to her, but she didn't turn as she attacked an autobot without mercy, with such fierce determination. Soundwave suddenly saw the blue femme fighting in her place. The debris of a nearby building suddenly collapsed, but not upon the one called Arcee. It collapsed upon Solarlight. He felt his spark sink, as he saw her trapped. He raced to help her, but found his own servos pass through her, as though she was a ghost. Panicking, he looked around, and suddenly saw a another group of decepticons surge forward, and the remaining 'cons suddenly receive a morale boost. But none came to help the femme, struggling to free her legs. An Autobot suddenly stood over the both of them, But Soundwave couldn't make out his details. He looked to Solarlight, fear and shock shone in her optics...and then that fateful blast that had killed her....he tried to lunge for the Autobot, but he was gone. But the battle still raged. Footsteps announced another's approach. He saw himself, pulling of his visor, his faceplates stained with tears...Kneeling beside his spark mate... Holding her close...
