    Summary

    A space bridge accident strands both Optimus Prime and Starscream on an unknown planet, filled with mechanical monsters. Once Starscream decides that immediately stabbing Optimus in the back is a bad idea, the two form an uneasy alliance. Just until they can get off this hostile world.

    But cooperation breeds grudging appreciation (and even more grudging attraction). Each uncovered secret on this mystery world brings them closer to returning to endless war. Can they keep fighting as if nothing has changed? Or will they take the chance for something new?

    Assuming the planet doesn’t deactivate them first.

    Summary

    Prime moves swiftly, with purpose—lifting, shifting, tossing debris aside as though it weighs nothing. His steps are careful but unrelenting, the ground shaking just slightly under each one. The tremor of the rubble vibrates through Starscream and it feels like knives being jabbed into his wires.

    Of course Optimus Prime would show up. Of course he'd come for one of his own.

    He can't even delegate this to someone else. Optimus Prime is too noble, too compassionate, too honorable to not put his own life on the line for his underlings.

    Megatron would laugh at the very notion.

    -

    Starscream is left to rust after a failed decepticon mission. Optimus Prime does not let him die.

    Summary

    This work is a sequel to my previous work Shackle. I recommend reading that first!

    After abandoning the Decepticons to save Bumblebee and Optimus Prime, Starscream is ready to officially join the Autobots. If he can manage to make it through the ten day probationary period, that is. Autobot life is a major adjustment for the seeker, and there's a lot to learn. Meanwhile, Megatron is not pleased about losing his second in command.
