That isn't a matter of dying, it's the reason of their death, who deserves to die and who doesn't. We are civilizated people. Now we dont need to kill others to feed ourselfs, so, in there isn't a reason to kill each other. If you are looking for balance, so, can you explain this war, can you explain why others inflict pain to each other without a logical reason? I came to bring the balance back. that is why I was creatd for. And that is my final task, and I wont rest until my task is done.
Once that voice finished everything it had to say, it would sounds a bit quiet, but with a touch of panic. Where do those voices came from? The weren't something from the books that Catetron downloaded inside Empress head, neither as a part of the programing, so, what is that?
...Help me!... I dont want to do this anymore! I want to be free. FREE! Why Im suposed to do this!?... Hello?... If I do this, will I be free? ...help...

Empress glanced around as she tried to come up with a response. Her audios flickered anxiously and she let out a low whine.
"Some of us still kill to survive... Others do it because it makes them feel better..."
The Predacon began to paw at her helm as cries for help sounded. She looked around the cell to see if there was someone else in there with her, but there wasn't.
"Who is that?! I need to get to them!"
She reached for the door from her corner, the effort more than useless.

A groundbridge swirled to life in the cells and Sky walked out of it casually. He was there to talk to Empress, the bot he had beaten up pretty badly. He didn't feel bad about it at all though as it wasn't really Empress he had beaten. To be completely honest he seldom felt bad for those he beat up, his old decepticon ways of thinking still showed in some places. As he reached her cell, he looked in while gesturing to a couple of guards that he intended to enter. They lowered the grid and opened the door, granting Sky (and Pet) access to Empress' cell. When he got in, he stopped and looked down at her.
Rumors are floating around. Things you did and didn't. I'm not here to judge you though but I'd be happy if you could tell me as much as possible. So that you can walk free again.

The Predacon jumped slightly as the ground bridge opened, something she hadn't been expecting. Empress appeared partially distracted when Sky entered the cell. She was still looking for the source of the cries, but they seemed to have disappeared. Looking up from where she lay, the beast whined and tried to scuffle back into the corner more, away from the Prime.
"I-I just wanted to learn some more, and and..."
Empress trailed off, her white optics blinking with a blank expression. It seemed that the more mental control she gained, the more info she forgot. She glanced to the communicator in the center of the cell.
"What happened to the other bot, Sparkflare?"

Knowledge is nothing to a beast like the Pet. Instinct guided her every move. And The Pet's instincts felt an odd malevolence in the room. She moved about, testing to see where it was. Her instincts sent out death signals when she drew near Skyspray, that was usual, he posed great danger, and yet the malevolence was not there, it was elsewhere. Others would only see a creature pacing back and forth, occasionally pausing to stare at someone. The malevolence stopped, her metallic hackles finally lowering. The Oet's hackles went up when she was confused or alerted by something, the beast did not know fear. Said beast went over to Empress, backing her further into the corner, if at all possible, and began sniffing her. An unusual scent was there, yet it was on Sky and Bruiser in lower concentrations as well. That meant it wasn't from them, yet it also meant it was probably friendly. Yet the scent was familiar. Something that unsettled her, making her hackles raise again. Something that belonged to someone that thoroughly disturbed her, yet she couldn't recall who that was.

You just wanted to learn some more and it backfired. What exactly was it that you wanted to learn, Empress?
Sky asked the female predacon as he stepped further in and observed her. He noticed that nobody had done anything to patch her up yet, something they should have done a while back. Too late to fix now though, what she needed was a proper medic. Sky wasn't a medic. When she mentioned Sparkflare, he looked out into the cell, staring blankly at the wall.
He was found guilty of crimes against the Autobots. Like mind-controlling you.
He delivered the answer while looking at the wall, focusing extra hard on it. There was no real movement from him until Pet started to sniff on the predacon. What she found was clearly bad as her body shifted into a more defensive position. It wasn't much but Sky still noticed, he cared deeply about his Turbofox/sparkeater. Crouching down next to her, he gently stroke her.
What's wrong, Pet? Did you find something? Good girl..

*A groundbridge then opened up behind Skyspray and Supernova Mavrix walked through, after hearing about what happened, she wanted to check upon her fellow Predacon, Nova now knowing that she was much of a victim.
She glanced at Skyspray, his pet and the containment cell. Which held her friend inside, a short memory then flashed and she blinked a little. Nova didn't know really who did this to Empress, but Sparkflare? Sure she didn't really know the mech, but she highly doubted he would do such a thing.
Then she paused in her thoughts. Like looking at the cell with another Predacon inside disgusted her somewhat. She then finally glanced back at the Prime.*
Prime.
*Was all she could manage to say, her face carried with it a look of seriousness, her orange optics locked on to Skyspray.*

As the Pet drew nearer, Empress wanted nothing more than to growl or to chase it off. Unfortunately for her, she was in no shape to even move across the cell without passing out. Instead, she softly bared her teeth while shrinking back against the wall.
"I'm a medic, it's my job to help people. The only way that I can help is if I know enough of what I'm doing- I didn't know much then, but now? I may be of more use."
Empress let out a cough of surprise when it was revealed to her that Sparkflare was behind the whole ordeal. She opened her mouth a couple of times to speak but fell silent. This info was a bit much to process. Hadn't he been the one one that attempted to comfort her earlier? After a couple moments of trying to search her tangled memories, she found no evidence that proved or disproved the situation.
"Are you certain it was him?"
Her voice seemed to falter halfway through her sentence only to strengthen itself at the presence of Supernova. Had she been capable of smiling in her alt mode, she could have managed a faint one. It was good to see a familiar and comforting face after the last while's messed up events.

The Pet froze. The malevolence surfaced again. It nearly scared her. Her instincts pointed somewhere behind her, away from Empress. And the disturbing scent multiplied. Nova was covered in it, from helm to pede. It was choking, invading her snout and remaining there, as if it was taunting her. The Pet slowly backed away from Nova, her optics wide. It was likely the first time Sky had seen her so distressed. When she was attacked by Whirl and didn't flinch, she'd tackled Shrike without hesitation, but this unknown oppressor that had done nothing to her made her very jittery. Eventually, as most of the veteran DJD knew, it would turn into rage and desire to kill whatever caused the sensation, but that could be weeks, or seconds. It was hard to tell. The Pet could see that whoever the oppressor was had definitely been around the autobot base, right under their noses.

Another groundbridge. Sky would recognize that sound anytime and anywhere. He stood up and furned around to face the predacon who came out of it. His shoulder coils sparked a little, completely randomly, and he nodded towards her in a respectful manner. He knew that they were family friends, grandma had said so and then that was how it was.
Supernova. How come you're down here?
Sky asked the red femme politely before turning his attention back to Empress.
But what was it that you now know that you didn't before? I'm not here to question you though, I'm here to set you free. You're free to go, under supervision.
He ignored the question about Sparkflare as he really didn't want to answer that right now. It was important that he played his role now. They were not allowed to break cover. Something happened with Pet though, he felt it. Looking down at her, he saw her staring at Supernova and she seemed... scared. He looked up at Nova again, but couldn't sense anything different. This however made him very suspicious.
Nova, where have you been and what have you done?

To confirm the innocence of one named Sparkflare. And to bring a testimony of my own.
*Supernova nodded towards Sky in a similar manner, clasping her servos behind her back formally. Pacing around.*
You see. Much like Empress, I have fallen victim to something bad, while not as bad as what Empress went through, bless her. It is still provident...
She and I were fooled into believing this mech could help us, help our cause. And that mech's name is Catetron...

"I didn't know much about being a medic before, but after recent events I've learned quite a bit more."
Empress glanced to her motionless hind legs and then to the Prime as he brought up freedom. One of her audios flickered in what could be annoyance, but being who Empress is, she wasn't one to make a fuss. She rested her helm on the ground and looked up to the group with a timid expression.
"I don't think I'll be going anywhere unless someone carries me... Sky, why the supervision? That wasn't me the last while."
The Predacon looked to Nova with a blank expression.
"Who's Catetron?"

A comm came in, private to Empress and another comm ip. Though it could be easily intercepted, it wasn't holding vital intel.
::Bruiser Maximus, Empress, please report to the command central for a field assignment.

The Pet scrambled to climb on top of Dky, the highest and safest vantage she could reach. Her tail and tentacles wrapped around him, securing her to his frame.

Catetron. Just as Sky had thought. This confirmed it even more although he wasn't sure if he could trust her or not. Seeing as she was a family friend, Sky ultimately decided to trust her. As Pet climbed up in him, he shifted his cannons to make more room for her to sit without risking being shot to pieces if something went wrong. He ran a servo over her head and neck to calm her down. If it worked or not.. that was another question. He sent a comm to Bruiser before gesturing to the protectobots to get inside the cell and pick up Empress, something they did without questioning.
As you see, carrying is not a problem. And you're supervised because we have to be sure your mind isn't affected anymore.
The Prime replied with a small smile before opening up a GB to the Halls just as the old GB closed. He walked through and the protectobots carrying Empress followed close behind.

Empress glanced upwards with a panicked expression at the intercom, momentarily mistaking it for the voice from earlier. After a quick realization, she returned her attention to the Prime. Despite her poor and paranoid mood, she was curious about the field assignment.
The Predacon let out a nearly inaudible whine at the latter part of Sky's sentence, wondering if she should mention the voices but decided against it. He had enough to worry about. Upon being picked up, Empress let out a sharp sigh and shuttered. A moment later she vomited up what was left in her stomach. Seeing Skyspay's smile, she managed a weak audio flicker.
"To the med bay!"
She muttered drowsily as they entered the ground bridge.
