The truth behind WWII is good to know, but not nearly as much fun as the reasons we came up with.

Summary: Ratbat has an owie, but Starscream has a cunning plan to make it better!
Timeline: You can get more fic-fix right over here!

(In which Ratbat gets picked up by Starscream... not like that you perverts!)
‘Hurts.’ Ratbat clicked quietly to himself in an attempt to calm down, ‘Hurts lots.’
His elder siblings had told him that he just needed to be patient and wait for their creator to come back, but he hurt! The little flyer’s chest ached and he was hungry all the time, but taking in energon made him feel sick to his tanks. Ravage made them all have a little energon every solar cycle so that they did not run dry, but Ratbat did not enjoy eating like he usually did, and Ravage had told them that having too much energon while they were sick like this could be bad. Even flying was not fun anymore. Ratbat kept running into the walls and crashing into the ground. Now his head hurt and he felt like he was burning up and his joints were sticking because he was low on fluids.
Ratbat’s air intake hitched and the smallest Cassettacon keened in distress, not caring if someone heard him, ‘I hope someone does hear! I want Soundwave!’
“Shh… Hush now little one.” A familiar voice soothed him, while familiar blue hands lifted him up against a cool amber canopy.
Ratbat thought for a moment about struggling, no matter how nice the voice made him feel, but oh! How strange, a Seeker’s mind was a hard thing to grasp, but Starscream was concerned for him, harsh voice softened by sympathy. The last thoughts of escape were dashed when Starscream began to croon, and the unexpectedly melodious hum soothed the cassette’s jangled systems.
Ratbat collapsed into Starscream’s hold, purring in relief at having a larger energy field enveloping his own in comfort, ‘Not as good as Soundwave, but oh that feels so much better!’
“I’m seeing it, and I still don’t believe it.” Skywarp shook his head, wings held at odd angles to display his confusion.
“I told you so.” Starscream said smugly, maintaining the energy field manipulation developed specifically to comfort distressed sparklings automatically, “When are you going to learn that I’m always right?”
“When you stop being wrong just as often, wingmate mine.” Thundercracker teased, holding a hand over Ratbat and extending his own energy field, “Huh. There is a full spark in there.”
“So what do we do now?” Skywarp asked quietly, closing the gap to make a circle of wings blocking Ratbat from outside view and covering the small mech in his own field, “If we leave him like this things’ll get bad. Sparklings can die from delayed upgrades.”
“Call Wingnut.” Thundercracker advised, “He always has protoforms shells just in case there’s an ‘accident’ like what almost happened with the Rainmakers. He should be able to help.”
“Good idea.” Starscream nodded, rubbing between Ratbat’s wings and sending the dozy cassette the rest of the way into recharge, “Have him bring six sparkling protoforms shells to my personal labs. I can guess at sizes. Ratbat’s due for a stage two according to my scans and if the other Cassettacon’s have matured at the same rate, he can extrapolate the rest from there.”
“I’ll do one better and call in the whole trine.” Skywarp grinned, clicking at the adorable sight of Starscream plotting about sparklings, “They can do the transfer for lil’ RB here and then we can track down the rest of Soundwave’s little monsters.”
“Sounds fun.” Starscream grinned deviously, “Let’s do it.”

Sorry for not posting yesterday everyone! But I was working all morning and in a staff meeting all evening. As you can probably guess, from this point on the plotline picks up! Mwahaha!
