    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

    “Come quietly,” Deadlock said, his tone low, soothing. Completely incongruous with the spikes and guns bristling from his shoulders, and the blaster still trained right at Ratchet’s head.

    Summary

    The common Autobot wisdom about running into a Decepticon that you'd known before the war was: don't.

    M.T.Os were one thing; they hadn't really picked a side. But it was different for those who'd been around since before the war. Nobody who’d willingly joined the Decepticons had been a happy or well-adjusted individual to start with, and the war had only made things worse.

    So when Ratchet caught sight of the mech who was leading his band of captors, nobody could blame him for panicking just a little.

    (Or: Shot down en-route to Kimia, Ratchet reunites with Drift a few millennia ahead of schedule. When Drift is still a devout and ruthless Decepticon.)
