   “ – oooooold man. ”

   “ – anything you have planned won’t work. ”

He doesn’t like the idea of … whatever it was Megatron was planning. Then again, he isn’t a fan for anything he plans. Any Decepticon plan was bad and involved death and destruction. But the way he’s talking … it’s like he would forget everything.

And that screamed bad news.

“ Yeah, I can’t forget that mug … but I really wish I could. It would do us both a favor. But you …. you’re going to lose the war. And you’re going to go down in history as the worst … everything. Worst face, worst voice, worst leader … yeah, no one will forget you. Just not for the reasons you want them to remember you as. And you know what? You’ll never beat Optimus. ”

      “From where i’m standing, it looks like your words are false, Bumblebee. You may try, you may even manage to stop this plan, but unlike you, I see the reality of things. I will not just beat Optimus. He won’t have his optics, the ability to hear or even speak by the time i’m done with him! He’ll die blind, deaf, and dumb and all the cosmos will know it was Optimus Prime! The fool who truly thought he could destroy Megatron and his Decepticons!”

Maybe he actually had been taking pointers from old films - something to think about, but just not right now. Not anytime soon. Not when it was quite clear that there was nothing and would be nothing to stop him once he took care of Bee in this specific way.

   “ – come on, old man. You can do it! ”

   “ – Decepticon trash. ”

   “ – bite my shiny metal ass. ”

   “ i’Ll tEaR yOu aPaRt. ” And it’s soon joined by a laugh.

   “ – sIlEnCe!! “

   Think. Think. Think! There has to be a way out of this. Optics look around him, still struggling to push the foot off of his chest. It felt like with each passing second, Megatron was just pushing it harder. And harder.

“ – they wouldn’t allow that. ” He wants to say that Optimus wouldn’t allow that – but right now, he has no one but himself to keep an eye out for him. He was his own protection … and his own backup.

Man, it sounds sad thinking about it like that – but he couldn’t just depend on them all the time. Even … if they were the best at what they do when it came to protecting.

“ When you say ‘alter your memories’ do you mean erasing you from them? Because I don’t want to see that ugly mug again. ”

     “All will come in due time. You’ll not remember this conversation, but I can assure you... there are big plans in motion. Plans... that you’ll be playing apart of. Perhaps... you may even see things my way.” The truth of the matter was far more complicated. Megatron didn’t even know if his plan was going to work and if it failed? He supposed that someone had messed up in his schemes - most likely Starscream.  Everyone always blamed Starscream. It didn’t matter if he was responsable for what happened or otherwise. It was simply the way of things and if it wasn’t for him? This war would have been over, but Megatron enjoyed the fighting... far more than he’d ever admit.
