Prompt: "Unexpected"

Megatron glared over at Julian from behind his ostentatious desk with his characteristic grouch face and folded hands, and Julian, in turn, straightened up with his own scowl that he aimed up at his, frankly, ridiculously tall principle.

“Why can’t you get your dumbfuck seeker squad to do it?” Julian grumbled as he tugged at a loose thread that was sticking out of the sleeve of his hoodie. “That’s what they’re for.”

“Do not deign to question my decisions, child,” Megatron sneered down at him. “You have been utterly useless to our cause ever since your transfer.” He leaned down to fix Julian with a look. “You either prove that you have the mettle to be a Decepticon, or you will be expelled.”

Some time later…

“Mueh, mueh, prove that you have the mettle- pshh!” Julian grumbled later that night as he jumped the Autobot Academy’s electric fence, making sure to have both rubber gloves and rubber boots secured as he climbed, the synthetic hairs on the back of his neck standing up on end from the charge he could feel just from the proximity alone. “What a fuckin’ dick.”

Leaping onto the perfectly trimmed grass on the other side, he hefted the duffel back around and unzipped it as he trotted over to a particularly nice and clean bit of wall.

After rifling through its contents, he slapped on his mask and pulled out a can of black spray paint.

“‘You’ll be expelled,’ my ass,” Julian huffed as he began to paint on the wall. “Dumbass would be short one helluva morale booster.”

Not that anyone knew that he was the morale booster in question.

He was nearly done with his wonky Decepticon insignia when he heard a twig snap behind him.

“Shit,” Julian said before turning and throwing the can at whoever it was before making a run for it.

He didn’t make it very far before he was hauled back by the back of his hoodie where he was slammed against the wall of the Academy.

“Decepticon,” the annoyingly tall student glowered, blue optics flashing in the dim light. “I take it you’re the newest lackey?”

Julian didn’t respond and he was smacked against the wall again, and he wondered if it was too late to fuck up Megatron’s stupid ass truck.

“Ugh, I don’t get paid enough for this shit,” Julian grumbled.

“Huh?” The student faltered.

Ay, nice. An opening.

 Julian kicked out at the Autobot student, who cursed and leapt away to keep his balls from getting straight up obliterated by the metal studs Julian had on the front of his boot.

“Hey!” The guy shouted and right as Julian went to run again, a fist came flying towards his face in a brutal punch, one that ended up connecting, sending him stumbling back as his mask went flying into the unknown.

“Son of a bitch,” Julian hissed as he wiped at his bloody nose before glaring up at the Autobot who froze.

“Oh…” the other said numbly, his posture losing its tension.

Fuck this

Julian bolted.

“Wait!”

“Fuck off!” Julian snapped back as he threw himself over the fence and scrambled back to his dorm.

The next morning…

“Wasp thinks JJ lucky that Autobot scum not throw him into dumpster,” Wasp told him sagely as he held out a frozen bottle of water towards him.

“Yeah?” Julian groaned as he pressed the makeshift cold compress against his stinging nose. “Tell that to my fucking nose, Wasp.”

Megatron had been pleased by his vandalism, and, naturally, had proceeded to praise his seeker squad for a ‘job well done.’

Fucking asshole.

But the principle was the least of his problems right now.

“I wanna quit, man,” Julian whined as he flopped onto his mattress where he curled up into a tiny ball. “The Autobot saw my face. I’m fucked.”

Wasp stared at him in confusion. “But… Autobots say they not know who hit school.”

Julian blinked.

Eh?
