New Management

Thoughts

Starscream was planning again. He was in the Throne room, talking to himself about how he was going to overthrow Megatron. Nobot else was in the room when he decided to start today's bout of scheming. He did not notice when two occupants entered the room. "-And I'll be like 'hey Megsy is it true that you're dead? 'cous if you are then all hail Starscream'!"

It was then that the younger, more boxy mech decided to let their presence be known. "Assumption: incorrect," the monotone barked. Followed closely behind him was their egotistical leader growling out, "I still function!!!"

That got the seekers attention. "Oh...eh... Hey there Lord Megaton sir... Eh about what I said before eh... I didn't mean any of it I was just playing around please don't shoot me!!!!!"

Which of course started another infamous fight between the SIC and the Commander of the Decepticon Army. "The rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated, unlike yours Starscream." Megatron retorted as he aimed at Starscream with his fusion cannon as it started to wine and glow a pinkish purple.

This in turn started the first round of begging on Starscream's part. "My... my Lord I...I didn't mean anything with it!" Starscream cowered under Megatron's glare. "My master, my Lord, I.. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done it, don't shoot me please!!!! I'm still with to the cause. You... you can't do this please master, I... I will do anything please. ANYTHING!!! I beg you please don't...I'll do anything you ask anything just... just don't kill me master!"

"Anything? Hmm." Megatron rubbed his chin with his free hand, while still pointing his cannon at Starscream. "I have decided your punishment. For the next week you will have to clean my feet with nothing but your tongue to my satisfaction and I get to use you as my footstool anytime I so desire in addition to your regular duties." He looked at Soundwave. "I do believe that I will enjoy this."

"Affirmative."

Starscream gapped at Megatron. Did he just prescribe that as punishment? Time to start round two of begging. "You want me to do what?! ... No please Megatron. Master anything other than that, I beg you, anything... I already said I am sorry. Please I didn't mean it. Please anything other than that! I promise I will do the new punishment you give me. I will not even question it. Just please reconsider the first one." He crawled towards Megatron kissing his feet. "Have some mercy master. I... I can't take the humiliation of being a footstool in front of everyone. So I beg on my knees give me another punishment and I promise I will do it!!!"

For once, Megatron decided to humor his traitorous seeker. "Well... Soundwave, didn't you put in that request of new materials so that you would build a new cassette spybot to aide our cause?"

"Affirmative."

"There you have it Starscream. You can either clean my feet with your tongue and be my footstool for the next week, or you are the new source of Soundwave's parts that he so desperately wants." He grinned manically at Starscream. "And do shut your mouth. You look like a gross organic that those flesh-bags call 'fish'."

"Eh...?" Starscream shut his mouth. "Bu... But…" He fell to his knees. "Of course I can be your footstool my Lord. I... I bet I can endure that… Eh.. is that all my Lord wants from me then I can surely go through the punishment…" He looked angrily at Soundwave. "And I won't be spare parts for any projects you got for your little army goons…"

Megatron let an evil smirk grace his lips. "I don't like to repeat myself, but today I will. I am going to enjoy this. I am kind of glad that I did not wash today." He walked over to his thrown and sits down. "Soundwave, you're dismissed."

Soundwave, being the loyal army dog that he is, left the Throne room without further prompting. Who in their right processor would want to hang around if he was not required to be near Megatron and Starscream when the latter was about to receive his punishment detail from the former?

Megatron grinned manically. "Starscream, I'm waiting."

Starscream gulped, trying not to throw up. "Eh... eh... Now my Lord? I... surely you want to take a shower before... Eh…" Damn I need to get out of this mess… "Eh besides... can... Can't we do this later? I...eh...need to find Skywarp and get... get him to stop one of his pranks my Lord. Eh I… I will come back when I have taken care of him. Eh…" Why can't he just punish me like he usually does? This is so humiliating to me, Starscream, doing something like... like arg!

"You do realize that Skywarp and Thundercracker are still in medical stasis recovering from their latest JetJudo™ incident, right? I am starting to think that you have a death wish. Do you, Starscream!?" Megatron aimed his cannon back at Starscream. "Because that can be arranged." He put his cannon back down. "I was certain that you would prefer this over our usual way of dealing with your insubordination, if that video I have of you singing in the showers is anything to go by."

"I... eh... um... What I mean is… I...You're filming me in the shower!!! Eck! I always knew you were sick but a pervert, you... Eh…" Starscream caught a glimpse at the cannon. "Eh... What I mean is... eh... I... don't have a death wish my Lord I just... YOU ARE FILMING ME YOU PERV!!!!"

"Would you agree that I have good taste in seekers?" He tried to grin innocently at Starscream but he failed miserably. "You were using my personal shower, by the way. You know how paranoid I am about my personal space." Starscream is so fragging hot when he's nervous, just look at the way his wings quiver. I am so going to need that cold shower tonight. Megatron's cooling fans turned on so that Starscream could hear them. Skagit! I thought I had control over my traitorous chassis of mine. Megatron tried not to look Starscream in the optic. awkward silence ensued.

Starscream took a frightful step back from Megatron. He stopped, and looked nervously at Megatron in case he saw it. "Eh... Well... eh... I hmm, certainly can agree that you… your taste is flawless my... Lord but eh... and about using your shower... hmm.... m-mine was busted and... eh... I c-c-can't use the common showers... they're to crowded and... What song did you here anyway?" Slag it Megatron you aft I...but he said he... no, no no no don't even start thinking that thought Star he must lie, he must... he... he doesn't like me not at all why else would he always beat the living spark out of me?! His wings started to shiver in fright and anticipation. Why... but if it's true and he likes... NO! no, he is only playing with me. Yes trying to take me off guard. well it is not going to happen… Megatron I am not falling for your lies I… Starscream shook his head and looked down at the floor. Then slowly peaked at Megatron still with his head down. But maybe...and if he does then...but he hurts me he doesn't... but I like... but he... I need to get out of here and hide! Starscream slowly started to back of from Megatron and headed for the door.

Megatron quickly sent a mental code to lock the doors that only he could override. Oh... He is so mine. "Where do you think your going? I haven't dismissed you yet. You can never leave before you receive your punishment, Starscream." He winked at Starscream. "It's your choice whether or not you enjoy it." He chuckled light-sparkedly. "It was Soundwave's idea that I try a different approach to disciplining you for your transgressions. I think he knows something about you that you don't want me to know" I hope what Soundwave implied is true, I don't want to punish him for misleading me. "I also have it on good authority from that idiot with the warp drive that a certain air commander has secret fantasies of me and said air commander in the shower, doing things that would make Primus jealous." He had a glint of mischief in his optics and he was smirking playfully. I don't think I can make it to the shower tonight. "You know how well Skywarp can lie." His grin got a little bigger. "Now have you figured out what song you singing in my shower?" Nope. I am definitely not going to make it to my shower. Oh... those wings!!!

Starscream stopped and looked with wide optics at Megatron. "Eh... I-I" His wings started to shudder in fright. "Please Megatron I... hmm Soundwave said…" That mind reading son of a slagger needs to offline, now! Starscream started to heat up in embarrassment and terror. What did he tell Megatron? What has he found out I...slag. "But... why do you want me to Eeeh... lick your feet my Lord... That is gross and I want no part of it. "Sk-skywarp? What did he, why, how?! He promised he wouldn't tell! Eh…" The seeker glanced at Megatron in pure terror. "Eh I mean.. eh I" Starscream was trembling at this point. I just got two new names at the top of my need to be put offline list. "And when it comes to the song...it has to be your mind playing tricks on you, sure you get enough sleep?" Damn it Star can't you say anything that won't get you shot or something? He panicked and ran towards the door not caring if it was locked.

"Why did I make your punishment to lick my feet you ask? Simple, for two reasons. One, to make sure that Soundwave does not think that I have completely lost my mind. And two, so that I can look at that sexy, red aft of yours." I don't even think that I can make it out of this room! "As for the song, I will give you a hint: 'I know you want me, I know you need me'." I must not make optic contact with him. Look at my insignia behind his head on the doors. Yeah look at that. He gazed at the Decepticon insignia. Starscream would look even hotter wearing a tiara with my insignia on it. Fragget all I am trying not to think about that gorgeous seeker standing there in front of me. Megatron's optics glowed darker with lust. "Everybot knows that when you overcharge a seeker like Skywarp on high grade all secrets will fly, sinking their respective ships. So don't go offlining members of my Elite Trine, that job belongs to me." He put fusion cannon away in his subspace.


=In Camera Room (a.k.a. Soundwave's Lair)=

Soundwave was busily recording the live video feeds from the Throne room, when Skywarp warped in with flash of purple light. Being the con who controlled every betting pool on the Nemesis, Soundwave had one question for the newcomer, "Query, Skywarp: your bet status: Change? Current bet: commanders hooked up by the after the end of this shift without help or interference. Starscream: too paranoid to see: secret dark desires of his sub-processor: coming true."

"Hmm yeah my bet status has changed Sounders. Why? You spying on me? Skywarp gave him a goofy grin. "Oh, and for the record if you haven't noticed, Screamer's always paranoid, always. Which is kinda sad since me and TC have to sit and listening to him complaining about Megatron all the slagging time. Geez I wish Megatron could just frag him already, that's what he wants. Trust me, I know.' Skywarp used a sing-song voice for that last little bit. "By the way, nice picture of revenge you got there. " Now his face was plastered with a stupid grin, as if asking 'are you going to give me a copy?'

"Skywarp: New Bet: Time until: Megatron interfaces with Starscream? New Bet: Wager: One personal favor or all your high grade?" Soundwave tilted his head to the side with a mischievous glint to his visor.

Skywarp some how found a way to make his stupid grin even bigger. "Ah and what favor do you presume I will do if you win the bet Sounders? 'cous I just can't give away my high grade." He snapped back as he shook his head and smiled. "I worked pretty hard getting that from Screamer you know…" He Peeked at the monitor. "Aw look at that. Screamy and Megsy hugging."

"Wager: Personal favor. Type: Usual. As in: Skywarp: Distract Throne Room occupants for one Earth hour. Purpose: Soundwave: Contact bondmate on Arc." Soundwave then proceeded to rig the betting pool by sending a telepathic message to Megatron to hurry it up and frag Starscream senseless.

=Throne room=

Figuratively, Starscream subconsciously backing himself into a corner. "You mean to tell me he doesn't already know? And for your information I…" He blushed. "Eh... I... you.... I mean eh... Song…" His blushed an even deeper shade of energon. "...I got a good explanation for it I…" His wings were shivering up a storm by now. "I can explain it master it was…" He looked at the floor only to hide his rapidly heating faceplate. Damn. What do I say? How do I explain? It's not like I can say 'Oh hey there Megatron the reason I was singing and dancing around in your shower acting like a lovesick sparkling is because you are making me ho...no, nonononononononononono not at all. *Starscream whimpered a little bit. "He... you... Why did you do that?" He looked back up at Megatron in distress. "Why did you... Why?" Warp why did you drink with him anyway? Really?! He froze once his wings touched the wall, after he was slowly backing off from Megatron. Scrap I'm trapped. He looked up in trepidation at Megatron.

"There is no reason to explain to me why you did that if your body language is anything to go by." The gunformer chuckled as he smoothly walked forward toward his SIC. So beautiful. So very mine. Even if he is the former Winglord of Vos. "I always get what I want, Starscream." He purred. He stopped a foot away from Starscream and put a hand on either side of Starscream effectively trapping the smaller mech against the wall. This better not be a dream! If it is, I don't want to wake up.

Star's optics widened as Megatron walked closer. "I... I…" The seeker was whimpering again. "I'm sorry my... I... ....wha...what do you want with me?" Slag why am I whimpering in front of him I…

Megatron took in Starscream's unique smell. "Mmm" This should be Bath & Body Works^TM new perfume that they should add to their permanent collection. He then whispered in Starscream's left audio with a purr so that the cameras in the room will not make out what he was saying. "I do not hate you, Star..." He pinched each of Starscream's wingtips to emphasize his point. "There is only so much of your idiocy that I can take." Then he licked Starscream's left audio and smirked at Star's response. "I have a preposition for you..." I hope that I'm not rushing this. "If you agree to my preposition, then there will be a change in the management of this fraction." He better say yes if he knows what's good for him. The gunformer whispered once more into the audio that he'd been assaulting. "Does it turn you on that Soundwave is watching us right now? He thinks that I'm going to frag you senseless."

The winged mech released a small gasp. "Me...Meh…" He opened his optics to their widest setting as he heard Megatrons whisper. "Bu-but you said you *gasp*" He doesn't hate me? but...he...he....cant moan he wont make me moan. "Wha... you... I am not an-an idiot Megh...ghaah. W-wha... what preposition.. gah...my Lord? Ahh…" Darn why don't I care that I just did that? "Tha.. Ahh That... Slah-slagger gnh... needs to get a ah... Life. a nah."

=Camera Room=

"Oki-do-ki Sounders consider the task as good as done." The teleported gazed at the monitor and smirked. "Will ya record this for me, will yeah," and in typical Skywarp fashion, he warped out of the room.

"Skywarp: Manipulated: Too Easily." Soundwave seemingly laughed in his monotone voice to the empty room, save one. Little does anybot know, I have two bondmates, and they are going to love this turn of events.

Jazz dropped down from the rafters in the room right behind Soundwave's left shoulder. The saboteur mumbled, "Bout time he warped outta here." He then purred into Soundwave's audios, "So my main Decepticon, what's crack'n?"

"Operation Sparklings: Is a go."

"I'll let our third know, an' inform OP that he'll be sign'n peace treaties soon." Jazz proceeded to sit in Soundwave's lap and looked at the monitor. "But first I'm gonna enjoy da show."

=Throne Room=

"My preposition for you has a few parts to it. First off, you don't kill me, I don't kill you." He licked a trail down to Starscream's neck and began to assault the cables located there. "Secondly, I need new recruits for this army. I am certain that none of those Autobrats would want to switch sides, not that I'd let them join." *started to nibble on the red and white mech's neck cables. "Which brings me back to you..." Megatron's engine started to hum in a soft purr. "I'm going to need somebot to help me create those new recruits. Thirdly there is only one way that I am going to allow that somebot to help me in that manner." *The taller mech stopped his assault to let the implications set in and looked Starscream in the optics. "What say you?"

Megatron's assault left Starscream gasping moaning in near torture. "Gah...okay ...bbb-but why meh? Nhah tha-gha tickles. I understand your disl-dislike the bot-ahs, You.. hmm...want me for what? *moans* a-and wha...gna...what do you.. meh.. mean Meg-enh." Starscream whimpered at the loss of his leader's ministrations. He met Megatron's gaze. "You want me to what...?" Being bashful, he buried his face into Megatron's chest. "If...if I say yes? What will happen to me?"

"What will happen to you?" He let fly a light-sparked chuckle. "You will get one of the best life insurance policy there is for our kind." *Megatron tilted Starscream's head up so that he would gaze into his optics once more. "Seriously, I will carry the first of our conjoined fruits of labor." He smiled Why do I get the feeling that one of us had to sell his spark to Unicron to get to this point?... Where did that line of code come from? I'm going to have to talk to Soundwave about his projecting of his thoughts again, but that's for later. Right now, I've got much more important things to do… "Who carries any other sparklings will be up for debate at a later time." *He then planted a chaste kiss on top of Starscream's helm.

Starscream tried to pull the wounded turbopuppy look with Megatron, only they would know if it worked or not. He mean it? he really mean it… Starscream's legs started to give, forcing him to lean on Megatron. "You mean it? Really? I...you would for me? I…" Starscream sent a slow volley of kisses to Megatron's chest. "I don't know what to say, I...?" He would really do it? I always wanted a sparkling but...I am not sure if Megatron really wants to carry it...I...hmmn. "I… yes I… Eh… Is there any other way you would want me master?"

"Truly, truly I say to you, you will be my bonded if you want me to carry those sparklings of ours." Megatron stroked Starscream's wings in a soothing manner to put his trembling at bay.

"Yes... yes I would love to." With a small shy smile, Starscream cast a glance at the camera. "What do you think your oh-so-loyal TIC is doing right now?"

"Most likely busying himself with that slagging Autobot TIC that for some reason is always hanging around here, but doesn't do anything but annoy Soundwave's Cassetticons."

=Camera Room=

Soundwave and Jazz: stopped making out. They had worry and confusion are written on their faces. "How did he know that!?" Soundwave checked to make sure that the microphone in the room was off which it was.

"Tell meh that you weren't project'n ur thoughts again "

"Today: Negative." Soundwave picked up where he left off.

=Throne Room=

"What do you say that we give him a little show concerning who runs this town?" Megatron mumbled as he leaned in to claim Starscream's lips.

"Huh I thought he had more than one lover. Didn't I know it…"Smiling slyly Star quipped Old Wave is not the only one gathering information." He eagerly returns the kiss. Two Earth minutes later, their lips part and Starscream was panting heavily. "Oh, how I knew you were such a good kisser mighty Megatron." He purred in a seductive manner. "and how does the mighty Megatron intend on showing them the rules around here?" He planted more small kisses. This time they were on Megatron's jaw.

Megatron moaned under the assault of kisses. "Well I could take you over the Comm.'s station that he works at over there..." Knowing him he is always recording this room due to a certain seekers habits. Definitely getting a copy of all the security footage of today's events. His cooling fans kicked on again. "...or we could move this little escapade to the Rec Room for all to see." He purred as he looked seductively at Starscream.

"Well it looks like the great Megatron is having some kinky thoughts here." The Air Commander glanced over at the Comm. station and licked his lips. "Well my Lord I will let you to decide what you want to do with my body and where." He looked seductively at Megatron with an evil grin. "Let it be a surprise." His hands feel so good on my wings. I wish this would never end.

Megatron grabbed Starscream's aft while he growled out, "You're mine now seeker!" He pulled Starscream's legs up so that he can rap them around the gray mech's waist. He then proceeded to dominate the former Winglord's mouth with his tongue enjoying the taste that was Starscream. The gunformer started to walk towards the planning table at the other end of the room, where he set the smaller mech down on the table. He purred, "Open up my prestigious."

=Camera Room=

Soundwave and Jazz separated once more so that they could cool their chassis off. Jazz looked at the main monitor with glint to his visor. "Looks like weh 'maxed for da good part of the da main attraction."

Soundwave sent a telepathic command to Thundercracker and Skywarp so that they would not report to their shifts at Comm.'s that day and that they were not to anything that would invoke the wrath of any of their commanders. "Rumble, Frenzy: Eject. Operation: Guard Camera room Door. Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, Ravage: Eject. Operation: Guard Throne room door."

Cassetticons left for their posts grumbling about something similar to missing a good show.

"Yah mean ta tell meh that ours were in ya the whole time?! Kinky" Both their visors glowed with lust.

"Affirmative."
