Yes the plot bunnies got me. -__-
Summery: (2007 Movie verse) Born in the ranks of the Decepticons, Prowl was different. He never wanted to be a ‘Con, and he will do anything to show the Autobots and their human friends that they can trust him.

It was a dark rainy day when a new arrival made planet fall, he barely got out of the crater when that all to familiar black and white Decepticon arrive there first. “Well what do we have here?” Barricade said with a snarl at the newcomer “Well if it isn’t my little brother, the goody-goody Prowl. Has some little medic changed your optic color?”
“Well it seems you’re HAPPY to see me, Barricade.” The new mech spoke.
“You shouldn’t have come Prowl” Barricade snarled “You think Prime will expect you as an Autobot once he finds out you were born as a Decepticon?”
“He will not care as long I help him stop mechs like you.”
“We’ll see about that!” Without warning, Barricade attacked. He slammed the newcomer to the ground, his sharp claw like hands ripping into the delicate protoform body of the other. Barricade laughed as the newcomer winced in pain. “Always the weak one.” Barricade smirked, not caring about the energon getting on his hands. Suddenly sounds of engines were heard nearing. Barricade looked at the injured mech below him with a smirk. “We’ll continue this later. That is if you survive. See you around, brother.” With that Barricade got off, transformed, and speed away just as the Autobots arrived on the scene. Before he shut down in pure pain, faces of the Autobots lean over him.

“Are you sure Ratchet?”
“Yes, he is or was a Decepticon. Someone changed his optics but it’s hard to get rid of the Decepticon insignia on a spark chamber.” The pair of voices was what he started to hear when he slowly came back online. “But what is odd is that the systems that regulate the temperature of his laser core don’t work well.”
“...T-That’s cause I was born with that glitch...” he spoke weakly as he slowly tried to get up. Ratchet came over and gently pushes him down with his hand.
“Stay down, you’re still injured.” Ratchet spoke in a serious matter.
“Who are you?” the second voice belong to none other then Optimus Prime.
“I-I’m called Prowl...” he spoke.
“Prowl huh?” said Optimus.
“Why would a Decepticon harm another Decepticon?” Ratchet asked.
“I was a Decepticon by creation, but not by choice...” he spoke again with a sigh.
“So that’s way Barricade was attacking you.” said Ratchet.
“That...and he’s my older brother...”
“Your brother?” Ratchet asked.
He nods weakly. “T-That’s what I said...” he said “H-He always hated my circuits... He and the others consider me as a weakling...”
"...Just because you don't fight on their side?" Optimus asked.
"...T-That and other things..."
"You can trust us. Tell us everything if you can," Optimus asked. Ratchet worked on repairing his protoform. Prowl slowly started to tell them. "...That's just...wrong..." Optimus sighed.
Prowl sighs. "...T-Tell that to my brother and the Decepticons..."
"Slag...that brother of your almost destroyed you. It's pretty deep. It might take me longer than I thought to fix you." Ratchet spoke.
Prowl sighs as he laid back. "..F-Figures...B-Barricade was the best at hand to hand..." Ratchet sighed as he started working on repairing the dangerous gash Barricade had made. Prowl sighed again.
"Keep me posted Ratchet. I'll leave you to work.” Ratchet nods as Optimus left the medical bay.
"Who changed your optic color?" Ratchet asked while he worked.
"...A-A medic called First Aid..."
"I know him. He was an apprentice of mine. I'm surprised he trusted you and fulfilled such an odd request."
"...N-Not many Autobots do..."
"Hmmm. That is interesting. If you have blue optics of an Autobot, and you act like one. Why not? Can they sense you have a Decepticon spark?"
"...S-Some yes..."
"Well...anyone who is willing to stand up to another Decepticon can't be all bad. Besides, you have not attacked us yet."
"...I-It's not logical to attack the ones you are trying to become allies with..."
Ratchet laughed a bit. "You have a point." Prowl winced and arched up in pain. "Sorry about that. I'm trying to work as delicately as I can."
"...I-I understand..."
"If you want, I can force you offline and disable your pain receptors."
"...N-No...my systems to my laser core don't like it when I'm force offline..."
"...Well, I should be able to at least turn off your pain receptors." Prowl nods. Ratchet stopped what he was doing and came over to Prowl's head. "It might feel a bit tingly at first."
"...J-Just do it..."
Ratchet nodded. "There... That should make it easier for the both of us."
"...Y-Yeah..."
"If you want to go offline and rest, you can. It's still going to take a while."
"...Y-Yeah..." Ratchet smiled as Prowl's optics closed and he went into recharge.

Meanwhile, Optimus had arrived at the main room of the base. "How's the new guy?" Ironhide asked him.
"Ratchet's tending to him, but he should be fine. It's sad what happened to him. It's always sad to see someone being attacked by Decepticons."
"...Yeah... I love to see them at the end of my canons..." Optimus nodded.
