Megatron looked at y/d but nodded "very well.."

"Do not think for a nanoklick the title is above you, Megatron. You are still the evil Lord of this warship and of this war, I'm simply your partner in crime." He said placing a servo on Megatron's shoulder "Should you ever be absent on a mission or in any ill state, you could best believe your ship and your soldiers be in the best kept servos."

"Oh believe me, y/d if I ever thought you were a threat to me I would have done the deed myself.. you are far more loyal than any other decepitcon aboard this vessel."

"You flatter me." He said with a light chuckle

"There is one thing I need from you while you are aboard my ship, y/d.."

"And what might that be?"

"Control over that predacon.."

A grin spread across y/d face plates "Oh, megatron.. you are as deviously sly as ever... Consider it done."

Megatron smirked as the two walked along to the bridge, giving his dear friend a grand tour of the ship.

"Wait." Megatron outstretched his arm pausing y/d from going any closer to the door they were outside

"What is it?" He asked

"Knockout.. I see that he is generally terrified of you."

"And?"

"I love it.." he smirked

"Strike fear into your soldiers, Megatron?"

"Of course."

He gently scoffed but nodded as the 2 mechs walked in.

Knockout was vigorously buffing himself when the buffer short circuited "BLAST! BREAKDOWN!" He snarled but turned around and cried out when he was in front of y/D.

"What is it, KO?" Breakdown walked in from the other room but paused when he seen y/d corner Knockout "Lord Megatron.. Commander, y/d. Need a quick tune?"

"A quick what?" Y/D asked

"Tune. Check up. Make sure the ol systems are functioning properly." He said

"Now that you mention it, y/d, perhaps you should let my medics look you over, when was the last time you've received good attention from a doctor?" Megatron asked looking at y/d

"Not since I left the council." He looked at Megatron

Breakdown patted the berth next to him "take a seat, it won't take long."

Y/D obliged and sat on the berth, allowing Breakdown to check him over as Knockout scampered off somewhere into the other room

"Tell me, Breakdown, are you a fleshbag lover?" Y/d glanced at Breakdown as he inspected his chassis.

Breakdown scoffed "no, they are oddly unique compared to other creatures I've met though." He paused and hummed

"What is it?" Megatron asked

"Rust." Breakdown gently scrapped some off his armor and frowned "mmm.. deep rust. Nothing too serious but enough to get an armor upgrade or at least change.."

"I'm old, of course I'm a little rusty." Y/D scoffed "anyway, what about your partner? Does he like them?"

"In a way.. He likes the vehicles they make, not so much of the humans themselves.." Breakdown said as he continued to poke and prod y/d "he likes to race the locals every once and awhile.." he muttered

Y/D frowned "so his alliance could be questionable."

"Not sure I'd say that.. we were rogue for a long time until Megatron called us in. We do love a good show of autobots getting scraped though. If bringing in rogue bots means they're questionable then by all means, interrogate me why don't you?" Breakdown scoffed as he stepped back "You're done. Just the rust is all."

"Thank you." He said as breakdown nodded

Y/d climbed off the berth and walked out with Megatron

"Why would you bring in rogues?" He asked

"Because, knockout has medical experience, Breakdown is his partner and assistant. We were bringing in more wounded than dispatching the healthy, and i was in poor health, lets just say we needed a solution and I found it. He's a wimp but he has all the right tools to be a doctor, though whose side he is on could be questioned. Breakdown on the other hand is an ex-wrecker, I doubt he has any need to switch sides, he and that wrecker Bulkhead have done a few rounds themselves, he despises them."

Y/D nodded before they made their way to Megatron's quarters. "Tell me one thing, Megatron.. does every room have surveillance cameras or just mine? You're afraid I may be up to something or just the curiosity of your Third in command?"

"I think for the first time in a very long time you have my third in command rattled.. they all fear you, y/d but he was curious of where you came from and so was I.. suddenly you appear from no where, aboard my ship, of all places.." he looked back at him

"There's a place where you forget was left uncharted.. in the hull was a stasis pod but you had no intention of opening it.. it had a timer to awake me to this point, so you tell me. You have an advantage with that predacon.. you don't need me."

"I didn't place you there, y/d. I had knowledge of the pod but never would I have thought in a million years would you be inside. Someone else planted you here. The question of who is racing through my processor." He said as he turned away in thought.

"You're right.. because I did." Y/D said before darting Megatron in the back with his own inhibitor device

"Arghh! Y/d! What are you doing??" He snarled

"Something I should have done a long time ago, Megatron.. Kneel before me.."

"I will NOT." Megatron snarled "why are you doing this?"

"I need to keep you at bay.. and you will now have first hand of what my device is capable of. Don't fight my invention, my lord.." y/d said as he placed his servo on Megatron's helm before he collapsed down into a kneeling position in from of y/d as he smirked

"Oh, megatronus.. you were too young when I invented this device, too pure.. but when you came to the council during your rebellious stage I knew i had to act. So during the war I found out your ship was the nemisis and set myself in stasis with a timer, I knew by now you would have developed and grew.. maybe enough for me and you have grew beyond my expectation. My dear, Megatron. You and I were destined to be together, rule as 1 and fight this war. The autobots will have no idea what hit them." He chuckled but it turned into a laugh, an evil genius laugh. He had Megatron in his clutches. He would now be conjoux endura with the mighty evil warlord and nothing would stop him. He would keep him under the spell for as long as he would need for him to become submissive.

"Don't fight me anymore, Megatron.. it's just not worth it." Y/D said stroking his helm

"Yes, your lordship.."
