    Summary

    Sometimes, characters being born later can lead to much larger changes in the universe around them. Now four sparklings who know nothing but slavery and misery are ready to put their escape plan into motion. It's a shot in the dark, and it's their only hope. Luckily for them, the Autobots are more than willing to help.
    The sparklings' names? Megatron, Soundwave, Shockwave and Starscream.

    Or: you know those series in which little children have a terrible abusive childhood, and then get rescued and proceed to be cute, enjoy life, build a family and kick their former abusers' asses? It's that plot but the children are the Decepticon high command. No, seriously.

    Summary

    Despite Sam giving his all in helping the Autobots, he dies in the battle of Egypt, and is repaid by the Primes ripping him away from his life on Earth. Instead, they send him to Cybertron just before the war breaks out with the request that he stop the war before it's too late. What is he supposed to do about that, you ask? Great Question, because he has no clue either.

    You know the drill. Sam is converted into a sparkling and sent to Cybertron. He proceeds to make everyone's lives as hard as possible on purpose.

    Summary

    It turns out that being wired into giant war machines doesn’t play nice with human brains. The Earth Mechanical Defense Force, or EMDF, learned that the hard way when their pilots started going… neurotic, let’s say, after a few missions.

    The obvious solution to that problem was to simply wire the pilot into their mecha permanently, that way their mind wasn’t being strained by the constant in and out. Unfortunately that strategy backfired and the pilots started going neurotic much, much faster, and this time they were giant and made of metal and much harder to put down.

    So, the obvious next step would be to pull the plug on that idea and go back to the drawing board, right? No, that’s ridiculous, the next step was obviously to simply…

    Make the mecha forget they’d ever been human in the first place.

    Somewhere along the line someone should have pulled the plug, but they’d already invested so much into the project, and you know what they say about sunk cost fallacy.

    Summary

    Instead of Starscream being the well-known and feared Second-In-Command of the Decepticons, he’s practically an urban legend among Autobots and Decepticons alike, only known through vague prisoner-of-war stories and scattered attributions of battle plans and weapon designs. Most mecha are of the opinion that this “Starscream” is a mere myth to make Megatron look more menacing, and others (notably the Autobot spec-ops) often make jokes about ‘Starscream the ghost’ whenever a particularly strange case pops up.

    This changes when Jazz and his team uncover an abandoned Decepticon laboratory on Earth, only to find a dying seekerlet locked in its depths.

    And thus, Starscream is no longer a myth.
