Starscream had yet to be invited to the "base" as he had been on Megatron's bad side since they had arrived on this planet. He started up at the structure and shrugged, it looked like any other residence expect it had more metal than the other houses did and it was built into the side of the hill so it was sort of underground.
He was going to comment on how "wondrous" it was but Megatron had already told him to shut his trap so he decided not to comment regardless of how irritating it was to not speak for the normally talkative creature.
Megatron cast him a meaningful glance and Starscream finally understood why he was asked to accompany his lord back to the base; the seeker had no problem with that, he was good at teasing and temping his Lord in more ways than just the one that people publicly witnessed.
The Seeker grinned and wrapped his arms around Megatron's neck again leaning in for a light kiss before Megatron roughly tugged his head away nipping at the sensitive wings causing Starscream to let out a gasp of surprise and pleasure; he wasn't sure if it was where his wings were sensitive before or if the Streya had sensitive wings as well, it just felt amazing and that wasn't a hollow compliment.
~~ Fade out for this evening <3

The next morning Starscream was perched outside in one of the trees muttering to himself about things that most probably would consider too much information; but he had to talk to someone, even if it was himself, or he'd go insane with no one but Megatron to spend time with.
He couldn't lie and say he didn't enjoy their "activities" but that was hardly anything more than a nightly chore, a duty he had to perform or Megatron would've probably blasted him into a million pieces plenty of human years ago.
Somewhere in the back of his mind he thought of how nice it'd be if Megatron actually cared enough for him to propose a bond but he quickly tossed those thoughts aside. Foolish thoughts would be the death of him if he wasn't careful.

Megatron stirred from his rest and looked around the room, irritated to find that Starscream had already fled the scene. He knew Starscream wouldn't wander to far as he had beaten the seeker several times in the past for leaving without getting his consent, Megatron didn't like being cuddly and such but he was more likely to be caught unaware if Starscream had gathered up enough courage to try.
Quickly making himself presentable the former mech exited the base and began to look around for his second in command, finding nothing on the ground he peered up into the trees and finally spotting a sliver of olive between some branches. "Starscream, come down here." He ordered watching the olive bits move before Starscream gracefully glided down from the treetops.

Starscream frowned but quickly obeyed his Lord's orders as he expected a beating for fleeing the scene earlier. Surprised that the taller Streya didn't raise his hand against him the moment he touched down Starscream tilted his head and frowned. "What is it oh, Mighty Megatron?" The exasperation was back in his voice, simply dripping from it and he almost cringed at the look on Megatron's face.
Normally he would be struck, Megatron would say something harsh and send him on his way. It was the norm for the past century so the fact that it was different today was a little unnerving; had Megatron finally grown tired of him?

Megatron didn't appreciate the mocking tone of his second, but what could he do? It was Starscream after all, regardless of how many times he put the Seeker into in-operation the brat would come back the same as before if not even more annoying. "I have a task for you, it has become increasingly difficult to do anything without Soundwave or our other fellow Decepticons, they had to have crashed here as well and I'm sure with time we will find them." He ordered simply glancing over to see Starscream's reaction to the news.

"We searched for them for weeks after our arrival, they are not here." Starscream replied bitterly; it was a tender subject to think that he would never see his Trine again all because of the Streya in front of him was too power hungry to see a bad idea even if it was pressed into his optics for hours on end. "They are either dead or on another planet." He added with an even more grim expression as he flicked his hair to one side, not brave enough to turn his back on Megatron just yet.
He couldn't help but feel a little irritated that the situation was difficult just because Soundwave was not here... He didn't know why it stirred such negative emotions that the old b*****d was so dependent on Soundwave but it made him want to bash the tapedeck's face in with his own recordicons. He was Megatron's second in command, Soundwave was just a communications officer! "We don't need Soundwave anyway." He responded tartly a little grim frown plastered on his muzzle.

"You fool! You're too much of an idiot to fulfill the job that Soundwave fulfills." Megatron growled causing Starscream to tense up and respond with his own little growl. "What is your malfunction? In the recent years even the slightest mention of Soundwave causes you to behave like a drone!" Megatron asked irritably, pinching the brim of his nose at the thought, a headache was coming.
"No, no, I don't care, he is just bellow you and I am tempted to switch your positions, you will respect your fellow officers." Megatron wasn't sure he wanted to hear the tirade he knew Starscream was conjuring up in that thick skull of his.
"You will do as I say, and you will track our original locations and do a wide sweep of this land; I am sure that our fellow Decepticons are here, they just need to be awoken."

Starscream flushed red with rage at the thought of Soundwave taking his place! How dare that slagheap threaten his position for that drone like b*****d! He had worked damn hard for this position in more ways then one and to think that Soundwave could come and do the same? Hah, who did Megatron think he was fooling? "I will not respect a Con that's only function in life is to kiss your aft!" He snapped before thinking and instantly regretted it.

A few hours later Starscream sat perched up in his usual spot holding an ice bag to his face; Megatron had flipped his lid at the last comment and had pummeled him so hard that Starscream had been out for a good twenty minutes before their caretaker found him lying on the forest floor.
Starscream had tried to snivel his way back into good standing, but Megatron was too flustered to hear any of it and simply did as he pleased and after it had faded into blackness Starscream wasn't quite sure where Megatron had went and he wasn't about to go find out.
He glowered down at Peach as she glared up at him; still upset at being called an idiot yesterday; the caretaker had request Peach to fix him something sweet to eat to try to patch things up between them, but Screamer had once again insulted the Princess leading to his current postion.
He wasn't afraid of her, he was just sore!

"Insolent little whelp! How dare he behave like he doesn't kiss my aft any time he desires something?!" Megatron roared causing the birds that tweeted above him to flee in a fearful sprint.
The Decepticon Lord had been so enraged after the little incident that he had stomped off to begin his search on his own! Like hell he need that headache doing anything for him! He seriously considered demoting Starscream but the little voice in the back of his head said something along of the lines of "*censored*censored*" and he knew that regardless of how he felt now, his anger would cool and Starscream would behave for a few astroseconds again.
Regardless he continued on with his trek, intent on finding evidence that there were other 'cons on this planet; there had to be otherwise Starscream would be right and Megatron would have to keel over from shock!

Starscream let out a sigh of relief once Peach wandered off to sit next to the green mustachio that she often fluttered about with; the Seeker again mentally insisting that he was only not meeting her challenge because he was sore and not because he was afraid of her to make his ego hurt slightly less.
He glided down from his perch and glanced about the clearing making sure the old rust bucket was nowhere about before wandering over to pick out some food for himself; he wondered where Megatron had disappeared to and admonished himself for being concerned! If Megs kicked the bucket he was in charge.... of the nonexistent Decepticon fleet... The thought depressed him somewhat and reluctantly he began to wander off into the forest in search of his commander.

Megatron had stopped to take a rest after he had found their crash site; shards of unidentifiable material lay scattered about but the earth had healed itself and it looked as if nothing had ever happened here. "This land is almost as pesky as that other fleshie planet we landed on years ago." He muttered irritably kicking a stray root in his path.
He had found a small trunk of a tree that had been carved a while back and sat down, his eyes scanning the trees for any sign of life but finding none. He found himself lamenting the loss of his superior sensors but most had been bred for battle and the instinct of these creatures they were now prevented battle. "Sensors or no sensors I am still sure that we are not alone, we have to be or otherwise we would've heard of aliens unlike the usual sort on the noisy TV that the caretaker has."

Travel through the forest was much easier for Starscream; he glided effortlessly through the trees like he use to fly through the skies on Cybertron many years ago. It was unfortunate that without the aid of wind his body was too heavy for true flight, but at least he wasn't completely grounded... That was a fate far worse than death in his eyes, though he would never admit that out load and give Megatron another advantage over him.
Falling to the Earth Starscream made slow movements into the field where Megatron was resting; he knew the overlord hated being startled when at rest as those hands had crushed his limbs several times when he stirred in bed. "Lord Megatron, I have come to assist you." He tried slowly, knowing that Megatron was still angry.

Megatron cracked an eye open to glance at Starscream's slowly approaching form. "Oh really? What happened to 'they're not here'?" He asked coldly, momentarily stopping Starscream in his tracks as if he was contemplating what to do next.

"I have come to realize that it would be a very lonely world with just you here so I have decide that we must find the others lest we drive each other insane." Starscream replied dryly as he slinked up to his Lord's side aiming to gain favor once again. It would be easier to work alongside the tyrant if he was in a good mood.
"I need my Trine, and you need other cons to boss around." Starscream stated in a matter of fact way as he placed his head against Megatron's shoulder openly flirting with the other since there was no one around. But it seemed that Megatron was in no mood for it and he simply frowned at Starscream causing the Seeker to sit back up straight.
