A day passes, and still no one comes for them, not even Scrub. Daniel is hungrily scarfing a piece of the bread from a food store that Rubmle and Frenzy raided somewhere. His stomach cramps up at the unfamiliar sensation of having food, and Daniel doubles over, but refuses to make a sound. It feels like he swallowed a couple knives, but it's no ( Read more... )

I am not a storage storage storage service! Scrub growls mentally, shuffling through some records on a small laptop-like computer. And he did not pay me nearly enough to change my mind. But whatever. That Decepticon could keep his lot here, but that didn't mean Scrub was obligated to care about them ( Read more... )

((This actually takes place a few days into slavery, long before Roddy and Wheeljack's attempted escape & subsequent punishment))

The planet's yellow, morning sun beats down on its surface -- but inside the house, it's cool and comfortable. Tomo strolls past Wheelie and Cureall's room, stopping for a moment to listen for their voices. Hearing nothing, she walks on, deciding they're still asleep ( Read more... )

As the ship lands, gravity returns to the group in the brig. Daru enters after a moment, reactivating the force-field control. "All right, come on and follow me. Be quick about it ( Read more... )

The ship isn't necessarily small, but quite cozy nonetheless. Daru, using the collars' pull, leads them into the empty Cargo Bay and locks them inside, not bothering to chain them. The ship begins to rumble and move, and as it exits into space, they begin to float in the microgravity.
