Captured (discontinued)

Chapter 1

~Icewing's POV~

"Where am I?" I said as I looked around the gloomy room. I was chained by my arms and was hanging from the ceiling. My helm was heavy, and all I remembered was seeing the Decepticon leader. My friends! Are they alright!! The Autobots had been in a fight against the Decepticons before I was captured.

Suddenly, a gray mech walked into the room, followed by a red one. "How was your beauty rest?" Said the gray Decepticon.

What! Why are Starscream and Knockout here? Shouldn't Megatron be interrogating me? "I don't- what!"

"You probably have multiple questions. Like why Megatron isn't here, and I am," Starscream said slyly.

"How did-!" Before I could finish, Screamer started to laugh evilly, though he was failing miserably. Even his sidekick could see that.

Knockout cut into Starscream's fail at laughing evilly. "Let's just get to the point. Megatron isn't here because Prime nearly killed him, and we need you to tell us the location of your base."

They're safe! And Megs is basically dead!! My mood was lifted by that news. "Pfffft! Do you really expect me to give up my home that easily!" I said with newfound confidence.

"I told you this wouldn't work!" Whispered Knockout to Starscream.

The seeker was rather annoyed by that comment. "Don't 'I told you so' me! Besides, I have a backup plan." Somehow, the Decepticon 2nd in command had a weapon in his servo that wasn't there before.

What the slag is that thing? The new weapon appeared to be some sort of shocking device, though it had sharp spikes at the end. When Starscream turned it on, it was revealed that the device was indeed a specialized shocker, purposely made for me.

"Like it? We made it especially for you! Notice how it radiates heat. It should pierce your ice easily," explained Starscream with a rather cool tone of voice. The savage Deception moved the heated shocker closer to my neck. "Now let's try this again, tell us the location of the Autobot base."

"Never. AAHHHRRRGG!" Starscream struck the heated shocker by the armor near my spark. The heat melted my ice, piercing my metal. The pain was great, but I refused to give in.

The seeker was clearly disappointed. He struck me near my optic, leaving behind a nasty cut. "I'll let you think about it. Come, Knockout!"

The red mech seemed to follow the grey mech out of fear, and once again I was left alone. I'm probably the only Bot in danger, so the others should be coming for me right? I sighed in exasperation. No, I'm in a flying warship, they'd never be able to reach me. Guess I've got to do this on my own.

Using what little energy I had left, I used my ice power to freeze my chains into snapping. When I fell to the ground, I had to cover my mouth to keep from screaming in agony. Apparently, my wound was worse than I thought. Energon was slowly leaking from my chestplate. I was too fatigued to move any further, and I'd used the last of my energy in freezing the chains, so I slipped into stasis against my wishes.

~Knockout's POV~

The next room over was the med bay, so I heard the prisoner crash. I'd better check on her before a trooper comes. I walked in to find the Autobot prisoner on the ground in stasis. Though I was concerned about how she broke the chains, my doctor instincts outweighed my military ones when I noticed the wound. It appears Starscream did worse to you than I thought. I knew using heat on you was a bad idea. Curse you Screamer!

Quickly, so nobot would notice, I carried the sleeping prisoner to the med bay. When I set her down on the berth, she started stirring. "Shh, it's okay. I'm not gonna hurt you."

That seemed to calm the patient down for long enough to fix her. Soon enough, I had fixed her wounds. "There! See, you're okay!"

At this, the Autobot awoke. "Wha-?"

"Shh, calm down, Autobot. You need to rest," I ordered.

"Wh-why are you helping me?"

"Because I'm a medic. I help people when they are injured, no matter what side." I surprised myself with that answer, though I knew it was true. My surprise was short lived, as there was a friendly interruption.

"Knockout, are you helping the prisoner?" Asked a large blue-gray mech somewhat jokingly.

"What do you think, Breakdown! Starscream stabbed her, so I'm fixing her! It's the least I can do, since we're, ya know, holding her prisoner." I snapped.

"But what if Screamy found out?"

"Then you'd bash him into the wall, probably killing him, making Soundwave leader. And Soundy would be fine with what we're doing!" I said to my partner.

Unintentionally, the blue bot began to snicker. I don't know why though.

"Ey! What's so funny!?" I asked her.

"'We're'. Key word," pointed out the Autobot.

Breakdown, getting the hint, blushed and hid his faceplate in his servos. "Since when were Autobots so smart!" He said.

"I'll take that as a compliment!" Said the femme cheerfully. "Shouldn't you be locking me up again, now that I'm fixed?"

I suddenly remembered my job. "Oh right! I'll also try to get Screamy to not use the heated shocker. Also how did you break the chains?"

For demonstration, the femme froze a nearby jar of water that I was experimenting with. Now that she was healed, the task felt like nothing. Both me and Breakdown stared at her with fear in our optics.

"Okay... just come along quietly and we'l-"

"I don't come quietly!" Said the icey femme with as intimidating of a voice as she could get. Though, she decided to swap that tone of voice out for her usual childish one. "But I'll make an exception since you helped me. Just no chains, please. Those things hurt."

"O-okay!" Replied me and Breakdown, somewhat simultaneously. We didn't expect to get out that easily. We delivered the prisoner back to the brig, whereupon we gave her some Energon and left her alone.

~Icewing's POV~

Okay, I'm on a flying warship, and I have two Cons I probably have on my side. What can I do.... well, since I'm a flyer, I can get off the ship. Now how do I sneak up to the top to fly off?

I reached into my subspace, and pulled out a Cybertronian USB. I walked over to one of the consoles in my new room and plugged it in.

This is the only USB I have with megabytes. This better be worth it. Also why do the Cons have a console in their brig. If a prisoner escapes, they can download all the info! Wait, that's what I'm doing right now... whoever was stupid enough to put this in here, thanks!

~Ratchet's POV~

"HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY LOSE HER!!!" I screeched. "That youngling is so loud you would have noticed the silence from Cybertron!"

I looked around at all my comrades faceplates. They all had the same expression, guilt. Icewing is like the child of the team, so nobot was thrilled when we lost her.

Optimus was the first to speak up. "There was an explosion.... we all managed to get away... except for Icewing..." My old friend was not acting like himself, he couldn't hide his emotions as well as normal. The likely cause of this was from losing Icewing.

Bumblebee spoke up next. ::The Cons took her. The explosion knocked her out and then the Cons took her.:: He just barely managed to say that before breaking down in tears.

"ARRGG!!!" I screamed as I threw my wrench across the room. "YOU'RE ALL IDIOTS!!!" I stormed off to my room yelling to myself. By the time I got there I was calmer, and feeling a lot more guilty.

Why did I get angry at them. It's not their fault. Why did we have to lose Icewing. Why Icewing! Stupid Cons! Stupid explosion!! Why....

I silently began crying. No one else noticed. They hadn't dared to come near my room after my earlier tantrum. I cried for hours. I would have cried for longer, but I ran out of tears. I finally managed to convince myself to fall into stasis, after the sun had already risen for a new day
