《The Daughter Of A Prime》Chapter 14 Soundwave

SilverWing POV
Dear Diary
I was so happy that my Sire accepted my relationship with Ultra Magnus. I was scared that he was going to pull us apart. Anyway, the next day I woke up to find Ratchet already working on Ultra Magnus' servo. He ended up with a claw-like servo, but I still love him no matter what kind of servos he had. He was the Mech that I fell in love and that's all that matters to me. I heard Ratchet say that Ultra Magnus will be okay, but won't be going out any time soon until he fully recovers. I was still happy that he was okay.
***
"Prime" Agent Fowler called.
"We have trouble brewing, the cons staged a smash and grabbed at Las Elmo's nuclear plant late last night and made off with twenty tons of control rods" Agent Fowler said. I raised an eyebrow.
"That's a lot of control rods" I said. Agent Fowler nodded.
"What are the Decepticons looking to build?" Optimus asked. He was saying this more to himself than us. Agent Fowler had gone to investigate but later called us through the computer.
"Prime, it's Cons again" Agent Fowler said.
"Coordinates received, Agent Fowler" Ratchet replied, opening a Groundbridge for us. I then saw Ultra Magnus, who was finally up, stepped forward.
"Let's roll" Ultra Magnus said, but Ratchet cut him off short.
"Ep, Ep, your ability to roll remains predicated upon further exploration of your manual dexterity" Ratchet told Ultra Magnus. I frowned when I saw him try to move his new servo, but failed.
"I'm afraid Ratchet authority supersedes my own in medical matters" Optimus told Ultra Magnus. I then saw Ultra Magnus sighed. I really felt bad for Ultra Magnus because he doesn't deserve this.
"Understood" He said. I then watched Optimus turn to look at me.
"SilverWing, if you are ready for battle, you may come with us" Optimus said. I nodded.
"I could" I replied. He nodded. We then went through the Groundbridge except for Ratchet and Ultra Magnus. I went through, right after telling Magnus something.
"Hey, it's okay. You'll get better. I know. Anyway, I see you when I come back" I said. He nodded.
I then left, but on the other side, we got there just as the Vehicons were leaving with what they were looking for. We immediately drove at full speed to catch up to them before they could cross the Groundbridge. I then saw Optimus transform and take flight with Laserbeak right on his tail. I used my side mirror to look up and saw Soundwave. The Vehicons fired at us but didn't hit us. They then finally were able to cross the Groundbridge in time, before we could have caught up with them. I stopped, before transforming back into my Bi-pedal mode.

"Scrap" I said. I then looked up when I heard firing and saw Optimus firing his gun at Soundwave. Soundwave managed to dodge the attack a couple of times but ended up still getting hit. He then came crashing down into a couple of power cords, sending a really painful recharge throughout his whole body.
"Oh, that must have hurt" I said.
"Agree" Wheeljack said. We all then surrendered Soundwave's unconscious body that was laying down on the ground with the power cords wrapped around his body.
"Ratchet, reopen the Groundbridge, but ensure that the humans are kept at a safe distance for we will be returning with a Decepticon prisoner" Optimus said.
***
We were back at base. I watched Ratchet immediately strapped Soundwave down so he couldn't escape.
"Because we have the means to shield our new base, our captive will be unable to transmit his coordinates to the Decepticon warship" I heard Ratchet tell Optimus. Optimus nodded.
"Nor will they be able to pinpoint his location" Optimus added.
"Guess we have all the time in the world to make Mr. Personality tells us everything he knows" Wheeljack said. I was standing on the far side next to Ultra Magnus with everyone around Soundwave.
"Why is Megaron stealing human technology? What is he attending to build?" Optimus asked.
"Wha... why... why is Megatron... stealing... human tech... tech... technology? Wha... what... is he... attending... to build?" Soundwave replied only repeating what Optimus said but in a creepy kind of way.
Soundwave then showed us a smiley face on his visor. That's when Bulkhead, who was standing next to us, transformed his servo into a wrecking ball.
"Oh, yeah? Why don't I wipe that smile right out of his face?" Bulkhead suggested.
"Soundwave, we have treated you fairly, but for the sake of the natives of this planet, tell us what Megatron is attending to build before we are forced to rely upon less civil methods of interrogation" Optimus said.
Just then, Soundwave made a loud screeching noise-making everyone immediately cover their audio receptors. The sound didn't last long, but for me, it felt like hours. I was half a cyber-wolf, and cyber-wolfs have a really good hearing, making this noise a nightmare to me.
"Are you okay, SilverWing?" Ultra Magnus asked. I nodded.
"Yeah. I sometimes hate being half cyber-wolf" I said. He nodded.
"Scrap this!" Ratchet exclaimed. I looked at him, seeing him tired already.
"Soundwave is no ordinary Cybertronian, inside or outside. So I will strongly suggest opening him up so we could have a first-hand look at the information recorded on his drives" Ratchet said, but then we watched a bunch of data begin swirling on Soundwave's visor.

"Alright! He's downloading data" Bulkhead said.
"No" Ratchet said
"He's erasing data" I added. Ratchet nodded.
"Soundwave superior, Autobots inferior" Soundwave said before his screen went dark.
"Is he..." Bulkhead began, but couldn't finish his sentence because Ratchet quickly replied for him.
"His vital signs remain functional, but it seems he has simply set off communication by crashing his own drives" Ratchet said. I sighed.
Just then, we got a call from Agent Fowler about more Con's activity.
"Autobots..." Optimus began, but then Magnus stepped forward, ready to roll.
"Ep, Ep, Ep" Ratchet said.
"Doc, the Commander is ready" Wheeljack said. I smiled. I then saw Ratchet grumbling something under his breath before walking away.
"Fine, Fine" Ratchet said.
"Bulkhead, Smokescreen, remain here with Ratchet to guard our prisoner" Optimus ordered.
"Sire? Could I also stay?" I asked.
I ask only because I didn't trust Soundwave even if he was restrained and unconscious. I don't know why, but I felt this weird feeling as if something bad was about to happen. I then saw everyone give me weird looks.
"What? Do I have something in my face?" I asked.
"It's just that you never ask to stay when it comes to a fight" Wheeljack said.
"I'm only asking because I do not feel that well" I lied. I saw them nodded, before turning to look at Optimus to give the order.
"Everyone else transformed and rolled out" Optimus ordered. I then watched Ratchet activate a Groundbridge, and I watched everyone leave.
"Can't we throw a tarp over him? He's creeping me out" I heard Bulkhead ask. I looked back and noticed that he was talking about Soundwave.
"Yeah, it's like he's watching no matter where you go" Smokescreen added. I chuckled.
"Well, we could try to take his visor off and see his face" I said.
"Would you three stop focusing on what Soundwave can or cannot see and help me figure out what he did not tell. Like why Megatron would be interested in something that was believed to generate enough power to create a black hole" Ratchet said.
"Blackhole? So Megatron is looking to swallow the whole universe?" Smokescreen asked.
"And everything in it" Bulkhead added. I rolled my optics. I then facepalm.
"Yeah, Smokescreen, Bulkhead" I said, getting their attention.
"Think Before You Speak. If he swallows the whole universe, then what is he going to rule?" I asked.
"Uh... Good point" Smokescreen said. We then turned to look at Ratchet.
"Like SilverWing said. Megatron only wants to harness the power of something capable of swallowing worlds in order to create one" Ratchet said before realizing what he said. He immediately called Optimus.
"Optimus, I know this hardly seems the right time, but it may aid you in your task" Ratchet said.
":: Go ahead::" Optimus asked.
"We believe that Megatron may be attending to rebuild the omega lock... do we let him?" Ratchet asked.
":: No::" He replied.
":: For you know as well as I that Megatron will use the reconstructed lock to cyber form both Cybertron and Earth. And that's one abusive power we cannot allow::" Optimus replied. I saw Ratchet sighed.
"Understood" Ratchet replied. I sighed before laying a comfortable servo on his back.
"I'm sorry, Ratchet, but he's right" I said. He nodded.
"I know" He said.
"Ratchet, it may not be with the forge or the omega lock, but we are gonna find a way to get our planet repaired" Smokescreen said, trying to cheer Ratchet up.
Just then, Agent Fowler came out of his office, holding a folder and right at that moment a window crash. I looked up, and my optics went wide when we saw...
"Laserbeak!" I yelled.
Just then, Laserbeak immediately began shooting at us before shooting Soundwave's retrains away. Bulkhead and Smokescreen immediately started to fire. Smokescreen managed to damage his wing, but Laserbeak still successfully managed to attach himself back to Soundwave's chest.
"Oh, Scrap!" I said.
I immediately began to fire at him, just as he woke up. Bulkhead and Smokescreen attacked him while I shot at a distance, but eventually, both Bulkhead and Smokescreen got electrocuted by Soundwave, leaving them unconscious. Agent Fowler charged at him with a fire extinguisher, but Soundwave knocked him out as well.
'I need to do something' I thought.
I immediately transformed into my cyber-wolf and was now standing in front of Soundwave, ready to fight him. I growled at him before attacking him. He managed to block every attack. I was then grabbed by the throat and lifted into the air.
"SilverWing!" I heard my name being yelled. That was the last thing I heard before I felt a powerful recharge hit my whole body, and I blacked out.
