Chapter Text
It was a day like any another and like any other day, the Decepticons decide to attack the military as they were going to shot their rocket's to space. The battle was just chaotic, Shoots and fire were everywhere the eye could see.
"You sure we did the right thing coming here be?" Spike questioned.
"No but we can hardly stay behind nether," Bumblebee said .
"Supplies: Destroyed," said Soundwave standing next to his leader.
"There is nothing left to take, Return back to base" ordered Megatron as he flew up to the sky and looked down to see a yellow bug driving around.
"And to make sure the Autobot's don't follow us, a diversion" as the Leader transformed into a gun and Soundwave fired the shot.
It went quickly as light itself travelled and before the young Autobot knew anything he and Spike got shot and Flipped to the other side.
Soundwave felt an emotion he didn't think he would feel, Was this Guilt? Sadness? How will he stop this emotion? Why was he feeling like this to begin with? looking down at the Autobot's his optics was locked at the human who seems to be near his off-lining.
"Soundwave!" a voice nearby shrieked in his audio and he winced, it was too shrill.
"Don't just hover there gawking, shoot them or get going!" Starscream snarled at him, bleeding heavily from a shoulder wound.
Soundwave looked at him before feeling the gun his hands vibrate slightly and without another word, he tossed it away and it transformed into his leader. The grey Mech smirked at the sounds of horror below him as the Autobots rushed towards their fallen companion.
"You did well Soundwave," he said in his rasping voice. "Come, we return to base!"
"Affirmative," Soundwave replied, but as all the Decepticons turned in the direction of the Nemesis, Soundwave released a cassette from his chest which transformed. A quick burst of instructions had Laserbeak swooping in low to avoid being detected as Soundwave flew on ahead to base.
Following the Autobot medic to a human hospital, Laserbeak went to the ventilation system listing into the humans speaking to take Spike right away for operation.
Hours later the humans returned and transport the young human to room B15, Laserbeak followed in by the ventilation system and looked down to see Plugspark listening to the Doctor.
"I’m sorry Witwicky, we just couldn't continue with operation" said the Doctor and added "His mind gets in the way of our work, it's a high risk for the Doctors to work on him"
"But you said there is a chance, We Got To Take It!" stated Plugspark, looking down at his soon "He is my only son, I want him out from this stage and back to normal"
The doctor sign and took out a few papers "I will book the operation tomorrow morning then, I need you to sign a few paper knowing the risks"
Sending this live feed to Soundwave directly, he could remember a time back on Cybertron where medics did offer similar things, But in the end, they just took the money and left their loved ones in bad shape.
"Unacceptable" Soundwave went to his working office and to his personal belongings getting spare parts of Rumble and Frenzy's, normally he would save these spare parts for worse conditions. But this will be worth it.
looking down at the box it was enough to build a new body, everything should be in there and so Soundwave went to work right away and started to build together a new Cassette body.
4 Hours of Work and the body was done, it had a black and a light purple colour to it with some yellow line and the visor itself was dark yellow at the moment, Feeling pleased with compliment now all he had to do is to get into the hospital.
"Release: Ravage," said Soundwave as the cat transformed as he added "Operation: join Laserbeak at human Hospital"
With that Soundwave transformed into his tiny alt-mode awhile Ravage carried him all the way to the Hospital.
Getting into Spikes room at was simple enough for Ravage as she found her way to B15 and put Soundwave down so he could transform, The room was tiny, but he did fit in there surprisingly, opening his cheats again Soundwave takes out the new spare body.
Laserbeak and Ravage look at Soundwave surprised and figure out pretty quick what he wants to do.
"Sire, Have you thought this through?" asked Ravage concerned.
"This human is an Autobot supporter, He may not want our help no matter how noble it is," stated Laserbeak.
Soundwave Tried to hide his feeling from earlier today, but looking again down at the sleeping human as if he was in a deep sleep. Those Doctors think they have the situation under control, but in reality, they don't.
"Soundwave Guilty" as he kneels down next to the bed and put the spare body on his lap, he then moved one hand to Spike’s head and the other to the Cassette body "Soundwave will save human Spike"
Now Focusing and entering Spikes human mind he tried to find the boy, too get a hold on his personality, his memory and Spike himself and pushed forward and tried to Transfer his mind to the spare body.
Soundwave have never done this before but he had a theory this was a possibility.
Laserbeak and Ravage watched as they saw the hand on Spike sparked and then the spark moved to the other hand where the spare body was waiting a soul/ spark, But both sister looked at each other with worry.
Soundwave let go of the human body and now looked down at Spike in his lap waiting for him to wake up. as the yellow visor came online with a bright yellow colour Spike looked up to see Soundwave staring down at him, then panic came into his system.
"AAAAHHHHHH" Spike screamed and jumped away from Soundwave and ran to a wall where he stopped quickly and only one thing was on his mind to get away and so he ran for the door and down the hall which he just was running blindly since his last memory was getting blasted by Megatron.
"That went well" whispered Ravage.
Soundwave cursed before snapping. "Ravage, retrieve."
She sighed before running after the panicking former human. He was stumbling over his new feet but she was interested to see that he had better control over his body that one might have expected. Other humans shrieked in shock and fear as Spike came towards them, unrecognisable in his new form and right behind him, a mechanical feline that they all knew. She ignored the humans, they were all scrambling to get out of the way anyway and charged after Spike before he caused more trouble.
He turned back to look and cried in fear. "Ahh....get away!"
"Stop," she snapped back at him and his bright optics widened in shock before he tripped and went flying over a stationary trolley. Nimbly, she leapt over it as he crashed and thrashed on the ground.
"Now then," she said, pinning him to the floor. "That's enough of that."
"You can talk!" he yelled in shock.
"Of course," she replied with a roll of her optics. "Now, you're coming back with me."
"No!" she cried in denial, trying to knock her off but he didn't know how to use his new strength. She dodged his fists, caught one arm in her teeth and started to drag him back to his room where her sire and sister were waiting.
The door to room B15 open and Ravage walked in with a fighting Spike, she made sure to lock the door this time before drooping Spike next to Soundwave.
"What did you do?!" Demanded Spike, on the way back he notice that this body wasn't his. "Why is my real body on that bed and why am I in this one?"
"Soundwave Saved Spike life" answered the blue mech.
"Saved me? You shot me and Bee in the first place!! And Now You just" Yelled Spike in anger, but never managed to finish it since Ravage jumped at his back to he fell on the ground and face facing the floor.
"How ungrateful!! Do you have any idea how hard Soundwave has worked on that body of yours?!" she growled at Spike and added, "He came back for your life Your Autobot friends left you alone HERE!!"
"Ravage," said Soundwave and she seemed to calm down and step away from Spike.
"I’m sure the Autobots did all they could to help me" said Spike as he stared at his human body, it was strange to look at it this way.
"Autobots abandoned Spike to human medics" answered Soundwave and then pointed to the papers next to his human body, Spike walked over there and started to read the papers.
"It says here I have an operation in the morning to save my life," Spike said in delight and saw his dad signature under that approved of it.
"Operation meaningless, Humans technology antique," stated Soundwave and added "Action needed, Soundwave provided"
"This is crazy, You still Shot me and you think I would just forgive you just like that?" questioned Spike, he was not buying this.
"Soundwave Apologize," he tried again.
"You think I will believe that?" Spike said still upset about this whole thing.
"Spike wants proof," Soundwave then sent a wave of how sorry he felt of doing what he did to the boy.
Spike jumped to his feet feeling a wave of emotions that wasn't his, but there were of guilt and sadness? It was too much to take in, he felt like crying.
"Statement: return to base, Autobot will arrive soon," Said Soundwave and looked at his three cassettes "Return: Ravage, Spike"
Spike watched as her transformed and jumped back to Soundwaves cheats, he felt the command in his gut telling him to obey and do the same, but he didn't want to, which made the blue mech stare at him.
"I'm not doing that" Spike said taking a few steps back.
"Return" Soundwave tried again, but Spike just shook his head with a no, with sign Soundwave sent a wave of tiredness to Spike which made him fall to the floor sleeping, then he picked him up and put him in his cheats.
Then Soundwave transformed himself and Laserbeak picked him up and flew back to the Nemesis.
