Be Carefull What You Wish For Chapter 3

On the Nemesis Optimus was still recharging peacefully in Starscreams room and after some minutes he started to roll around the berth until he felt something uncomfortable mostly to his back, when he open his optics. The first thing that surprised him was the room was so small and dark, purple colored.

That made him wonder if the sun was up or if it was still night, but then he felt to get up and when he did so he feel something uncomfortable.

When he tried to see what was that made him so uncomfortable he saw his wings didn't have so much at the room edge of the berth at the wall "What?"

"Wings.....I have wings?" he asked himself dumbly in a rather high and screechy voice before jerking with shock as he recognised the voice, Starscream.

Rolling off the berth and staggering as he almost fell, the appendages on his back were throwing his balance. He somehow managed to stay on his feet and spotted a tall mirror and headed in it's direction. Once he reached it, he found himself staring into Starscream's worried optics, no trace of a sneer.

"What....has happened?" Optimus asked in horror as he stared at his reflection.

"I-if this ... it can't be..  how?" asked Optimus in Starscreams body, and when he tried to walk to the small window it felt so real that this is more then a dream and looked outside the small window and saw.

"W-water?" he asked himself and understood this is real and that he was on Megatrons ship at the Nemesis.

"I need to get out of here" said Optimus felling that he would find a answer how to fix this back with his fellow Autobots, but the he heard foot steps "Someone is coming"

"Starscream!" a very familiar voice snarled from behind the door. "Get your aft out here right now."

"Megatron," Optimus murmured, taking a step backs automatically. There was no way he was going out of this room while Megatron was there, the Decepticon leader did not sound happy. At least this room appeared to be sercure or Megatron would have entered by now.

"Seeker, I'm giving you one last chance," Megatron warned, he seemed sure that Starscream would hear him.

Optimus remained silent, hoping Megatron would go away. However, he heard a growl from Megatron and then the murmur of Megatron's voice speaking quietly. He frowned....just what was.

CRACK

"Sorry Screamer' boss's orders," came another horribly familiar voice.

"Skywarp" said Optimus and saw the purple seeker trying reach for his arm, but Optimus quickliy moved away from him understood that the seeker was ordered to take him out to Megatron.

Skywarp tried again to reach for Optimus and didn't get him "Come on Screamer, the boss will only get more angrier"

Then again Skywarp tried to reach for him and this time when Optimus moved he fell of losing his balance, Then he got him and warp to his leader.

"What took you Skywarp?" Megatron asked angrily as Skywarp let go of the unfortunate Optimus.

Skywarp just shrugged before warping away again. Before Optimus could try to get away, Megatron had bent down and seized him by the neck, lifting him clean off the ground. Optimus clawed at the restraining hand choking him, he couldn't barely think as his legs kicked helplessly below him.

"So," Megatron hissed in his face. "You thought you could be insolent and get away with it Starscream?"

"Ack," Optimus gasped out as Megatron squeezed harder.

"I'm going to teach you want it means to be insolent towards me," he growled as he punched him in the middle.

"Ahh" Optimus gasped out, the punched hurt more then it usually it does on his original body and the wave of pain was worse.

"What was that?, you want more?" asked Megatron as he continued to punch Optimus more and that didn't feel so pleasant, each time it hurt more and more, Optimus tired to get free from Megatrons grasp "You though you where safe in your room hmm? you where Wrong!" Megatron punched him  ones again.

Optimus tired all he had and managed to get free from Megatron choking grip and got avoid from getting hit again.

"I'm not finished with you yet," Megatron snarled, coming for him and Optimus had a hard time staying away from him.

"Get away from me," Optimus told him, backtracking as best he could. "Your a disgrace."

Megatron froze and growled. "What did you say?"

"You heard me, a real leader would not beat his own troops like this," Optimus told him.

"No you are right Starscream, a real leader would beat his own troops like this" growled Megatron bringing up his arm with his fusion cannon at Optimus face.

Optimus quickly moved away from the blast when Megatron tried to fire at him "You are insane" Optimus said, he never knew Megatron was betting up his own troops like this and his SIC.

"I teach you who is insane" Megatron growled furiously at Optimus and aim at him again.
Optimus sighed and shook his head, clearly Megatron was not going to listen to him in this mood. He decided retreat was the smartest thing to do in this situation so be turned and ran as fast as he could.
It wasn't easy, Starscream had thrusters on his heels and Optimus found himself wobbling all over the place. It didn't help that Megatron was firing and chasing after him, he needed to get completely away from the Decepticon leader.

Idly, he wondered just what Starscream was doing right now.
Note: what is Starscream doing back at the arc?
