Y/d trembled, her form was stained with energon as Starscream come walking out with the prod, she shook, she sighed but gave a low rumble as she glanced over him

"How pathetic.. did you really think we didnt keep you under surveillance? At first we thought you were pretending until we found you two practically interfacing in his alt.. you disgust me." Starscream scowled as he jabbed her in the stomach with the prod, she yelled out in pain but it subsided when he pulled back only to jab her once more, she cried out in pain and quivered in the chains. She looked up at shockwave, his optic looked glazed over and emotionless

"Creator.. i'm sorry." She mumbled

"SHUT UP!" Starscream whacked her across the face with the prod making her yelp but then she looked down as the energon trickled down from the new wound

Starscream continued gis attacks until he was finshed leaving y/d with many new dents and injuries, the fresh energon spilling from the wounds while she was exhausted

"You had so much potential, y/d.." shockwave came walking in after Starscream had left, he had left earlier to assist megatron with something but he came back. Why?

"This is your fault.." y/d mumbled through the energon in her mouth, spitting out a glob toward him. Successfully hitting his chassis, she glared at him

"It's your fault because you knew it was a possible outcome."

"But i believed you would succeed. The odds were always possible but slim yet you went in that direction anyway."

"You were the one to send me out there.." y/n grumbled

Shockwave stared at her a moment "I have failed this time. But i made an error i wont soon forget." He turned and walked out

Y/n hung in the chains for days, each day brought more and more pain and starscream was relentless.

Only one this about starscream, he is a total screw up and you can expect him to screw up at some point so y/d smirked weakly when she seen he had dropped the key to her chains, she struggled for awhile but soon successfully escaped.

Her limp form collapsed onto the ground with a harsh thud, she sighed but pressed on and managed to get off the ship. They were somewhere in Colorado. Y/d growled but she knew she had to get the autobots attention somehow.

Just her luck there was a government military base nearby so she went on a rampage in her predacon form, charging through with minimum damage before retreating nearby and waiting until the autobots came, which wasnt long.

A groundbridge warbled and out came Optimus, Arcee, Smokescreen, Bulkhead and Bumblebee

Y/d laid there and huffed when they started looking around.

"There!" Arcee was the first to notice y/d form laying nearby

"Primus.." smokescreen mumbled as his optics looked over her damaged and injured form

Bumblebee whirred a bit

But y/d stayed still while they advanced forward

"One of megatrons predacons.." bulkhead muttered

"I wonder if it's intelligent like predaking." Smokescreen said aloud

Y/d ever so slightly shifted, standing up on her pedes and their guns were to follow.

Y/n rumbled softly before making a slow and weak transformation

"I'm surprised.. you dont recognize me, Smoke.." y/n mumbled with the slightest of a smile

The others looked shocked a moment before then looking at smokescreen

"You've met before?" Arcee questioned

"Wait, y/d?" Smokescreen lowered his arms

Y/n gave a hoarse laugh and coughed a bit, hacking up some energon in the process "not the glory i wanted you to see me in.. but it was the only way i'd ever see you again.. starscream had me locked up for days.. assuming you can tell what happened next.."

"But why? How?"

Y/n coughed a bit more and collapsed onto her knee, wavering a moment "Megatron had me under watch.. he seen us the last time we were.. otherwise engaged.." she mumbled glancing at the others who still had their weapons raised but yet took another glance at smokescreen

Y/n trembled slightly at her own weight but glanced down "He planned to offline me."

"Care to elaborate on the 'otherwise engaged', just exactly how do you know each other aside from battle?" Arcee snapped

Y/n gave a soft chuckle "why don't you explain, smokey.. im running low here.."

Smokescreen's face was a dark blue in blush before he sighed and began to explain the beginning and elaboratrd that they were otherwise engaged in an loving relationship. At which point y/n couldnt even stand anymore and had gotten down to her knees, her form still wavered side to side "and there you have it.. ever since then we've been seeing each other as partners.. not as enemies of war. I do not care for megatron anymore and i am asking for your help, autobots.."

Optimus stared down at her trembling form for a long hard moment "Y/d, how do we know that you are truly not on decepticon terms?"

"You think i'm acting? These wounds run deep.. half my sensors are offline... and if i were on con terms you would be seeing many troopers coming down as we speak.. i only care for smokescreen now. And i wouldnt say that getting revenge isnt exactly off the table.. i want to hurt them the way they hurt me.." y/d grunted as she shifted

It was all Optimus needed as he and Bulkhead assisted the young predacon to stand up right.

They took her back to base where Ratchet then confirmed all her injuries and started an immediate patch job.

Smokescreen stayed near the medbay while he worked, staring at y/d. He placed a servo on the glass and frowned

"They sicken me.. starscream is gonna pay." He growled through gritted dentas

"You really care about her, huh?" Bulkhead walked over

"Of course.. i.. i love her.. i just wish we didnt meet under these conditions.. or during this war.." he mumbled softly "but something in my spark tells me she's the one.. she has to be." He turned and looked at the others

"But have you listened to your head for once?" Arcee asked

"She's good! She's different than the others, you've seen that so stop trying to make her out to be the bad guy!" Smokescreen snapped making the others freeze a moment

"Smokescreen.."

Smokescreen looked away from Optimus and frowned "i just know it.. please give her a chance!" He looked up with pleading optics

Optimus placed a servo on his shoulder with reassurance "everyone deserves a second chance and given your history is all the more reason."

Smokescreen looked into the medbay watching y/d wince while Ratchet welded her armor together in some places. She glanced over when she noticed he was looking in, a slight smile came across her lips before she yelped and snarled at ratchet, he had cut too close to sensitive wires but Ratchet blamed her for moving and y/d said nothing more.

It took a few days and many energon infusions before y/d was up and walking around somewhat normally.

Y/d walked over to smokescreen as he was heading to bed for the night and smiled at the end of the hall "hey, smoke.."

"Hey, y/d."

Y/d sighed "i just wanted to thank you.. again.. i know you persuaded them to keep me around."

"Of course.." smokescreen smiled "I wouldn't of been able to stand it if they turned you away.." he grasped her servo

Y/n wringled her servo from his and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, being a little taller than him, he blushed a bit "uhm.."

"Stop acting like such a rookie.. you were a pro last time we gave it a go." Y/d gave a playful wink

Smokescreen looked bashful "but everyone at base"

"Who cares" y/n leaned down kissing his lips softly, she could feel the heat his cheeks gave off, soon the two were making out and in a desperate attempt to sweeten the mood, Smokescreen went to dip y/d which was a terrible idea, he couldnt support her given his weakened love state and they ended up falling, Y/n slammed down onto the floor but pulled Smokescreen down with her making him fall on top of her, they broke apart but as Smokescreen was going to beg for forgiveness y/n started to laugh

Smokescreen blinked in confusion but soon joined in as he chuckled

"See! I told you!" A voice cried

The two looked up to see Miko, Raf, Bumblebee, Ultra magnus and Arcee

Y/d's face darkened a bit

"That position is not good on y/d's recovering body, nor appropriate for the children.." magnus said

"Take it to a berthroom." Arcee piped up

Y/n glanced over how they fell and the position was very suggestive but she chuckled as Smokescreen climbed off and helped her up. His face was a dark blue, blush just consumed his face as he laughed nervously.

Y/d playfully punched his arm "Stop that.."

The others cleared out after that

"Makes you look too cute.." Y/d said wrapping her arms around him

Smokescreen leaned up and kissed her

Y/d smiled in the kiss and soon they were back at it again until they heard quiet snickers

Miko and Wheeljack stood there in the hall

"Enjoying yourselves?"

Y/d huffed before dragging Smokescreen into his berthroom so they could continue uninterrupted

Smokescreen laid there on their shared berth with her "you know... i love you."

"I love you too, Smoke.." y/d nuzzled into his chassis

"Ooooo~"

It was from behind the door

"We got our own room now go the frag away!" Y/d growled

The troublesome two ran off as y/d sighed "guess theyll be getting used to us sooner or later.."

"Maybe theyre just jealous they have no one to cuddle or smooch.." Smokescreen chuckled and kissed her cheek

Y/d chuckle "maybe.. but i do know one thing we dont have to guess at.."

"What's that?"

"My love for you, my smokey~" y/d nuzzled him and purred happily making Smokescreen smile

"I wont let megatron get his dirty claws around you ever again.."

"Thanks.." y/d offlined her optics and cuddled him close
