On a shelf high about the others stood a odd construction made out of blocks and books or anything else sturdy that the Pockettu inside could have gotten their hands on. The little home was quite large for most Pockettu but the construction was meant to be more than just a home. Around it were various knick-knacks left by the owner of the room, all pulled close as if to keep the construction's entrance hidden.
The owner of the room had allowed the action to go on knowing that her knew Pockettu were anti-social little creatures. The new Decepticons that were hiding out in the home were best left alone by the ones she owned before, and it was probably for the best that they didn't try to hatch a secret base in the little mock town built for the other Pockettu either.
She had made sure to lock up all objects that could be converted into mini-weaponry; however, Megatron had still gotten a hold of a thumb tack and was now using that in lieu of his cannon. The female sighed before deciding to go find them some plastic weapons to keep them happy, at least for now. There was no telling what the two would do once they gained numbers.
Inside the two newcomers set around a small Ipod touch that had been converted into a computer-of-sorts. The larger of the two was sitting closest to the screen, looking over the sites that the previous owner of the mp3 player had book marked in hopes of finding out her future plans.
"Master, the large fleshing has departed." The slighter one called out as he noticed the female leaving the room. The Seeker hopped down from his perch and slowly approached his leader. The two were injured from a past event that neither wanted to dwell on as it would do them no good to do so.
Megatron turned his head to look at the Seeker with a frown. "It matters not where she goes, she'll not interfere with our plans." Megatron grumbled as he turned back to the screen effectively ignoring his companion.
"But Master I ... !" Starscream tried to approach his leader once again only to have the other Pockettu slam his fist down on the small box acting as the computer desk.
"Silence Starscream, your voice causes my head to ache!"

Starscream was hardly one to take Megatron's orders seriously when he was distracted. The ancient rust bucket was merely frustrated at the new situation they had found themselves in, and who wouldn't be? How shameful it was to be called a toy and be only a couple inches high! Along with the fact that they were once again alone despite all the effort that Megatron had put in to help restore his allies to working order.
"Master, please, I was only trying to help." Starscream cooed in the elder's ear as he very carefully slid his arms around Megatron's shoulders. His esteemed leader was still quite sore from the neck up even though most of his wounds had healed and scared over. Starscream himself had only lost an eye but the humiliation would live on with him for decades, and with the foolish choice his leader had made in suggesting a truce they would not be able to achieve vengeance any time soon.
"Enough! We have agreed to the foolish truce with the Autobots, there is no need to watch the large fleshing while we recover." Megatron snapped once again, his mood too foul to put up with the Seeker's attempts at coercion. He was still quite irritated with the fact that Starscream had endlessly complained and whined about his injuries while his were some of the most minor.

Starscream moved away with a huff before stomping over to the other side of the room again. The Seeker was bored of this place already, he wanted to go out and see what there was to see, but he was still unused to seeing the world with one eye. It had shot his depth perception all to hell, and he had found himself falling while trying to climb several times.
The Seeker stretched his legs before turning to look out the window, the room was mostly empty expect for the few Pockettu that were living temporarily in the bookshelf across the room. He grumbled to himself about various things, "old fool" and "senile" slipped out a little louder than most as if trying to incite Megatron into a rage, but the older Pockettu resisted the urge to beat Starscream's head into the ground.
Megatron didn't want to admit it to anyone, but seeing all of his allies fall had struck a nerve in his black heart. He would be alone if any of his followers fell, no one would turn to him and follow his cause anymore. The original purpose of it long fallen and lost to the bitterness it had left behind. The Decepticons he had left probably didn't respect him at the moment for his show of weakness, but he would soon put them back in line once they saw the need to recuperate.
He would never allow anyone to know, but he was worried that his loyalist would not recover from their injuries despite his efforts. The idea that he felt worry made him sick to his stomach. He had gone soft, Starscream was right, he was nothing more than an antiquated rust bucket. NO! He was still Megatron, Lord of all Decepticons! Had it not been for Prime he would've defeated Sentinel, his blows making it possible for his former "brother" to defeat the traitor.

"Starscream, get up!" Megatron snapped as he stood from his seat. There would be no more lazing about if he had anything to say about it. "I want you to go examine our surroundings, find out anything you can about the locals."
"B-but, Master! I can hardly climb with my sight in this shape and I cannot fly!" Starscream protested only to have Megatron loom over him in the most threatening manner Starscream had seen in a while. It made his heartbeat race, the fear of death constantly looming over his shoulders when Megatron had him in his sight.
"Do not disobey me! Go this instant!" Megatron grabbed gold of the Seeker's arm and squeezed before pulling him up from his spot. The fear in the younger Deceticon's eyes was rather amusing. Regardless of what the boy spewed he was still terrified of his leader, and rightly so. He would make sure all of his followers knew he was still in charge.
"Y-yes, my Lord." Starscream stumbled over his words as he tried to jerk his arm away. It was futile really, the Seeker was built for stealth and speed while Megatron had brute strength on his side. "Please, let go...?"

Megatron considered breaking Starscream's arm just out of spite; however, that would mean the Seeker would whine and complain about yet another minor injury for ages. Megatron released the arm but tugged the smaller Pockettu up by the fur on his coat. "You are to report back to me by sundown, if you don't I will come find you." It wasn't a threat, it was an order that he expected Starscream to follow.
"Yes my master, I will return right on time." Starscream whined as he tried to wriggle away from the warlord's grasp. He was terrified at being caught between Megatron and the wall with no one around to interfere if things went sour. He knew Megatron wouldn't really kill him, not when they were alone, but the fear of being beaten was still thoroughly strapped through his veins.
"Good, you will be rewarded if you return exactly like I ordered, my dear Starscream." Megatron released his hold causing the Seeker to stumble back ungracefully and stare up at him like a deer caught in the headlights. It always was a game with them, both on their toes waiting for the next mood swing to occur, but Megatron was always the clear winner in these affairs.
"Oh, thank you master." After a moment of regaining his composure Starscream leaned forward and pressed his lips against Megatron's his hands resting on the warlord's chest where they could easily be swatted away if the was getting on the elder's nerves. Starscream pulled away with a coy look on his face before sauntering off, dreading the ordeal of getting down the bookcase that was coming.

Later that day Starscream had finally managed to climb down from their perch, though it had taken much longer than he had originally expected. Starscream cursed their idea to take a post so high off the ground, when if he were able to fly the way he use to it would've been heaven. The Seeker was sure eventually he would probably be able to fly, it was in his blood after all, once he got use to his new form.
Looking around for any signs of danger Starscream scurried forward, looking for the door to where he had saw the other Pockettu go through the previous day. The next room had a small transportation device that would allow the Pockettu to get to the small town built in the original shop for them. Most of their owner's other Pockettu chose to live there in the midst of the others.
He approached the device and noticed that the purple bird was perched at the top looking around as if oblivious to all that surrounded it. He was curious as to whether the bird was intelligent, but judging from the simple squawking noises it made the bird was simply a bird. It was a pity, fliers were often more cultured than their walking counterparts.
The Seeker stepped inside the device and pressed the button that would cause the little trolley to move. He sat down at the end of it and waited until it lurched forward and began its trip. "Feh, I don't know what Megatron thinks we'll find by watching these fools."

Megatron had sat back down and continued to explore the web after his Seeker had left. The warlord was trying to find out their owner's plans and was pleased to see that Soundwave had been ordered. Megatron knew Soundwave's injuries had been the worse and if he was alive then the rest of his forces were most likely alive as well.
He mulled over the choices that had finally popped up due to this news, but decided to wait until Starscream returned before setting anything in stone. The Seeker did so hate to be left out of major choices even if he didn't really have a voice in them.
The warlord stood and turned the Ipod off before walking over the window Starscream had been looking out of just a few hours before and it occurred to him that the Seeker had been longing for flight. Their owner had told them that it wouldn't be quite as easy for them to fly anymore, and it would probably take them a while to get use to their new bodies.
He would look in to conniving the large fleshling to buy Starscream's trine, perhaps that would perk him back up to his usual snobbish self.

Starscream had rode the little trolley all the way to the small village and by the time he got there he had little time to get back. The Seeker cursed Megatron underneath his breath as he hurried through the streets looking for signs of anything, but nothing really caught his eye. He was use to the hustle and bustle of their home, not the sparsely populated streets.
With a sigh Starscream set out to head back into the trolley before smacking right in to someone. "Watch where you're going you fool!" He yelled before looking up to see a familiar face... It was that demon! She had followed Megatron up to their base several times and had tried to sweet talk him! Starscream had boiled with rage and jealousy even though he had sworn it off as disliking the devious way the woman behaved. "YOU!"
"Well if it isn't the jealous little lovebird, what are you doing out here all by your lonesome?" Anema asked with a grin as she reached to help Starscream up only to be swatted away. The demoness had been grocery shopping and it was just a delight to see one of her newest playthings.
"That is none of your concern!" Starscream yelled before stomping off in the direction of the trolley, and even though he had tried to hurry off Anema was right on his tail. "Leave me alone you vile woman!"

Anema was persistent and she had followed him all the way home and up the bookcase, assisting him in some parts even when he yelled at her for it. She insisted that he was only trying to be neighborly but Starscream wanted her nowhere near his home. "Leave! Now!" He yelled once they had gotten to the top, though, Anema seemed in no hurry to leave.
"Starscream, you're back..." Megatron stopped in his tracks when he noticed the voluptuous demon from before. She had been nosy and very touchy-feely previously and Megatron was in no mood to be felt up by this woman again. "What is she doing here?" He asked, his tone low and Starscream just knew he had blew whatever reward he was going to get by letting Anema follow.
"She followed me master! I had no part in letting her up here!" Starscream insisted as he hurried over to Megatron's side in an attempt to play victim. The Seeker rested his head on Megatron's shoulder and offered him the most pathetic pout.
"Oh? So you're into the whole S&M scene huh?" Anema asked with a catty grin that only made Megatron frown. Now he would have to go look that up, curse these squishy bodies not being able to look things up on their own. Starscream on the other hand stiffened and let out a squeak of fury.
"How dare you! There is no such thing going on! He's a sick old man, I would never do such things!" Starscream's face was blood red, he hated being a squishbag! They revealed their emotions much too easily with all these involuntary body movements.
"Me thinks the lad protests too much!" Anema laughed before turning and catching onto a power cable. Using the long cord she made a quick exit, giggling the whole way down.
"I'm a sick old man am I?" Megatron growled causing Starscream to spin around and look on in horror. He was so doomed.

The next two days were filled with silence around the base. Starscream was angry over his beating and Megatron saw no reason to apologize to the arrogant snot. The two hadn't managed to figure out what to do about their quarters which meant Starscream had been booted out of his own bed. The Seeker had been huff over that too.
Today Soundwave had arrived, Megatron was pleased and Starscream was once again in a funk. It was no secret that the SIC and Soundwave didn't get along, but for now he had managed to keep all snide comments to himself. Soundwave was still injured and had trouble speaking due the the pain in his chest and throat. The blessed silence was the only thing Starscream was thankful for.
Megatron had immediately given Soundwave menial tasks to accomplish that would require little physical exertion while sending Starscream to do the heavier work. When their overlord disappeared somewhere Starscream let not a moment slip. "And so our resident boot licker has returned to our side."

Soundwave arched a brow, but he didn't respond to Starscream. He wasn't going to waste his voice on Starscream's jealous poking and prodding because he knew it would get them nowhere in the long run. Megatron had often treated Soundwave with more care than Starscream liked so it had led to petty jealous on Starscream's behalf.
Soundwave stood up, though he had to clutch his side from the slight twinge of pain it caused him. He agreed with Megatron's decision to call for a truce, but he would have loved to be able to rip Bumblebee apart piece by piece in revenge for the pain he had caused him and the sparks that had came from him. That wasn't possible though, and they would have to deal with it until the decision changed.
Soundwave walked away from the Seeker and plucked a miniature book out from the bookshelf, he was going to read now that his duties were over with and hopefully ignore Starscream.

"How dare you! I am the commanding officer while Megatron is away!" Starscream screeched before stomping off right after him. Starscream would not allow such disrespect from the little backstabber. Soundwave was loyal to Megatron alone so most of the other Decepticons disliked him, about the only person Starscream knew to like him was Shockwave.
Soundwave mentally groaned before turning around to give a 'what?' look to Starscream. He couldn't answer the SIC regardless of what Starscream wanted. Shockwave had barely managed to keep Soundwave's spark from being extinguished before Megatron had arrived and he wasn't about to injure his vocal cords for Starscream's ego. That's all this was, Starscream's bruised ego at having to work despite having a minor injury himself.
"What is going on?!" Thankfully for the communications officer Megatron had returned to put a stop to this foolishness.

Starscream froze and turned to face Megatron with a terrified look on his face. He had been caught red handed trying to mess with Soundwave, another beating was going to come, he was sure of it! "Master, I was just trying to see how our friend was doing." The word friend was dripping with hatred that only made Soundwave chuckle. Starscream turned and glared at him before Megatron seized his wrist.
"Enough Starscream! Behave." Megatron didn't wish to beat Starscream yet again, he was much too tired to do so this morning. He tugged the Seeker along with him giving Soundwave a curt nod before tossing Starscream into their shared quarters. "Stay." Another order before he slammed the door shut and walked off to speak with Soundwave.
"Megatron!" Starscream was insulted, here he was being treated like a sparkling! How dare he!
"Soundwave, I would like for you to watch the woman that lives in the bookshelf across from us. She knows our location and has caused me nothing but grief every time she has came over here. See if you can find any weakness or something to keep her from us." Megatron was pleased that one of his servants followed his orders without question.
When Soundwave was gone Megatron returned to his quarters to see Starscream perched on the bed, arms crossed his chest, and looking almost like a ruffled up bird.

"What do you think you're doing, treating me like a misbehaving Sparkling?!" Starscream asked with a frown as Megatron walked over and placed his hand on Starscream's head, patting it only to ruffle him some more. "Stop that! I will not be insulted by the mech who made a deal with the Auto---" Starscream was stopped cold by a slap to the face. He nearly fell off the bed from the strength Megatron displayed.
"I will NOT have you or anyone else question my decision on the matter of the truce! Do you hear me Starscream?! I will not tolerate disobedience from my men who were equally trounced." Megatron was almost shaking from his anger and Starscream had inched back to the head board out of fear.
