Trains, Planes, and Autobots
Summary Fic Part 10
[Previous] [Next]
(decided to stop stringing you guys along. So have the confrontation with DeadEnd. As a treat.)
---
Megatron comes down and Dorothy disembarks. Atlantic City is just visible in the distance. Optimus pulls up not too far from their landing spot and Twitch, with much relief and stretching emerges from his trailer.
Dorothy looks speculatively up at the gates of a scrapyard and wonders why a robot would take up residence where machines are destroyed. Megatron simply replied that it's the sort of place Deadend would go as he "has a lot of thoughts about life and the universe and places like this prove him right".
Dorothy mutters that he's not painting a pretty picture.
Optimus tells the group they'll likely have to split up to canvas the scrapyard and find Deadend. He tells them to leave their comms open and remain in communication as they search.
They split into two groups; Dorothy and Megatron, and Twtich and Optimus, and head into opposite directions.
Dorothy asks Megatron for more information about DeadEnd. Megatron asks her to be more specific and she says she just wants to know if hes going to have any "nasty surprises" for them like shooting lasers from his eyes or something.
Megatron laughs at the idea, but quickly recovers and tells her that no. Deadend is just a regular cybertronian. Unless he has had some sort of special upgrades and he can't imagine Deadend bothering with that without being convinced.
However he does tell her not to let down her guard. Deadend might not have any special powers to speak of, but he could be clever. And while he had a nihilistic defeatist mindset, once properly motivated he could be fierce and clever.
Meanwhile Twitch is hovering around the junkyard and trying to spot cybertronians but is quickly becoming frustrated. She points out that the junkyard has a TON of cars that Deadend could be hiding out as. She asks Optimus if he has a energon detector. He answers negatively, and is about to talk out a strategy when he quickly hushes her. Twitch lowers her voice and asks what it is. Optimus tells her to listen.
After a moment, Twitch realizes she can hear a voice.
They peek around a trash pile and quickly realize that their caution might be misplaced.
Deadend is leaning on a junk pile that hes fashioned into a sorta chair watching a car crusher do its work. He's surrounded by odd junk sculptures and is currently trying to vocally write some cheesy edgy poetry. Said poetry is terrible. Oh and theres music playing.
((I can't decide what sorta music Deadend would listen to. Screamo or classical music. Note in the replies what sorta music you think Deadend would listen to while making junk scultures, writing bad poetry, and watching cars get crushed.))
Twitch asks if thats Deadend and once Optimus confirms she decides to fly over and try and "read him his rights" or whatever her idea of that is. Optimus tries to stop her, but its too late.
Deadend doesn't really react to Twitch's voice as his music is so loud. Twitch tries to raise her voice above the noise, but can't manage it. She eventually get frustrated and shoots an EMP at the device playing the music FINALLY getting Deadends attention.
However Deadend isn't really intimidated by Twitch. Literally snatching her out of the air and wondering what she is. At first he thinks shes an autobot drone until she transforms back into robot mode.
He winds up dropping her on the ground hard in surprise and vocally wonders if shes an autobot only to fail to see an autobot insignia on her.
Twitch is about ready to launch at him only for Deadend to pull a gun on her. He conversationally asks what shes doing there.
Twitch hesitantly tries to answer with something that wont get her shot only for Deadend to cut her off and say that it doesnt matter anyway. Obviously shes either an autobot spy there to arrest him, a decepticon thats come looking to collect on some kind of bounty or else trying to take over "his" junkyard, or else an unaffilated bot tryin to do one of the former. Regardless he should probably just shoot her and-
Thats when Optimus is on the scene and successfully manages to get the jump on Deadend kicking off a fight that attracts Megatron and Dorothys attention.
Deadend largely plays evasion as he moves to retrieve his firearm (which he dropped when Optimus attacked before) and focuses on firing at Optimus from a distance. Twitch manages to get his attention and draw his fire while Optimus transforms into truck mode and nearly rams into Deadend who just barely manages to transform himself and speeds off.
Megatron and Dorothy appear overhead tracking after Deadend from overhead. Dorothy radios Optimus telling him they have their sights on the Con. Optimus radios back that he and Twitch are in pursuit on the ground.
Dorothy watches Deadend racing along the road and consults her GPS. She tells Optimus that he seems to be heading for the interstate. Megatron tells OP to cut him off before he can reach the interstate.
Twitch wonders why. If he tries to hit the interstate the traffic would slow him down wouldn't it?
Megatron darkly says that he doubts Deadend intends to drive responsibly.
Hes proven correct when they fail to cut Deadend off from the interstate and he very deliberately enters the opposite exit and barrels down the interstate in the wrong direction. Cars swerving out of his way, endangering the drivers.
Optimus growls that he'll need to leave pursuing Deadend to the others as his truck mode giving chase will likely only endanger more lives. So he directs Twitch to follow after Megatron while he follows on foot trying to keep an eye out for any crashed cars.
Megs and the others follow his direction and chase after Deadend, who swerves expertly between oncoming cars. Occassionally coming dangerously close to some of the cars.
((Won't lie I struggle to come up with how this chase ends or how they catch up with Deadend. What I DO have is that they eventually catch up to Deadend and manage to capture him.))
Deadend doesnt really argue against his capture. He ran, they chased, they caught up, he was captured. It was inevitable.
This irritates Twitch who demands to know why, if he thought getting captured was 'inevitable', he drove through the freeway and endangered all those people.
Deadend can only give the incredibly unsatisfactory answer of, "I dunno. Instinct?"
His callous attitude irritates Dorothy and Megatron as well with Megatron arguing that its just this careless attitude that has given their people such a hard time on the planet.
Deadend, once again, just shrugs and treats the concept of humans hating cybertronians like some inevitability.
However, Deadend tells them to relax as hes not intending to run anymore. He's tired of hiding out anyway. Pessimistically he wonders is Megatron will leave him to rot in prison or put him into stasis like he did with Motormaster.
Megatron takes the opportunity to say that they'd actually come to talk to Deadend about the stunticons. Asking him when he last saw the members.
Deadend asks why Megatron wants to know something like that, but doesnt wait for an answer before deciding its not worth asking. He then says that he hasn't seen any of the others since the end of the world. He himself has largely been waiting for GHOST and the autobots to come find him. Moving from scrapyard to scrapyard, stealing energy from gas stations and power plants, listening to music, making his statues, and watching "the inevitable fate of all cybertronians" which he describes as "a useless pile of junk only good for crushing and smelting down".
Strangely enough this behavior actually kept him largely under the radar. Something that Megatron doesn't miss. Internally speculating if Deadend would have continued wandering quietly if they hadn't shown up.
Optimus then shows up carrying his trailer behind him. Clearly out of breath, and tells the group that, thankfully, none of the drivers on the interstate were harmed.
To this news Deadend just shrugs.
Optimus ignores him for his own sanity, and asks Megatron if he's learned anything new from Deadend to which Megatron responds negatively.
The sudden interest in the stunticons peaking his interest, Deadend asks why they're asking him about the others. Twtich tells him that they're looking for the others before Dorothy can shush her.
Deadend suddenly becomes VERY interested and asks if any of the other stunticons have escaped from jail.
Megatron sighs and tells him they believe Motormaster may be reforming the group.
This clearly seems to shock Deadend and he begins to mutter to himself. Asking himself if he should run. Then wondering if its possible to hide. Finally he says "its all pointless" and "he" will find him no matter what.
With that he willingly walks into Optimus' trailer and asks them to "get it over with".
After closing the doors Dorothy wonders if they should be concerned with how easy that was after that chase.

Some drawings of Dotty and Megatron.
I always hated the idea of Megatron befriending a human. Even with Autobot Megatron in MTMTE, I always thought It would ruin his character.
Except Dotty is the best possible character match for him, so I adore their relationship! Seeing him have a genuine, badass girl boss friend is actually beautiful.
My two cents.
