Any Other Info: Rough draft with details subject to change. :). Fic, so far, is actually two (maybe four) parts. This is a snippet from the second part.
Someone makes a mistake, the uneasy balance shatters, and Tarn suffers for that weakness. It is a smoking heap. There are few survivors and any chance for peaceful resolution drains away like stripped paint.
The Decepticons blame the High Council, claiming it was a heavy-handed attempt to put down the rebellion.
The Senate and the Council claim that the Decepticons are at fault, trying to sow dissension and fear through Cybertron.
Without a Prime to lead them, and Primus a silent deity, there's no one to mediate, no one to slow the fierce rush to war.
Neither side bends. Both sides are lying. And the violence continues to erupt.
Sunstreaker doesn't know what to believe.
“We're Neutral,” Tracks tells him. “We're going to stay out of it. That's the only safe option to be had.”
Sympathesizers to either debate are being harassed and attacked. The Decepticons wear their allegiance proudly, purple sigils stamped on their chestplates or their wings as many of the Vosian Seekers are flooding the cause.
“It won't last,” Sunstreaker replies, his optics fixed on the vidscreen, watching clip after clip of violence and misery and anger.
Tracks isn't so pessimistic. “Neither will the Decepticons.”
Sunstreaker, however, isn't so sure.
