He'd heard of his most recent opponent, but had never faced her before. Her name was Airachnid, and she was supposedly the deadliest gladiator on Cybertron. Megatronus, unlike most mechs, knew not to underestimate an opponent. She was small, probably quick and agile, and she could spit sticky webs to trap her prey. Megatronus also knew that he would be able to use his clawed servos to tear the webs. He looked to the crowd, hoping to see his lover, Orion Pax. He smiled when he caught the younger mech's gaze in his own. Unfortunately, Megatronus noticed a little too late that the loving gaze had turned to one of terror. He turned around just in time to block the powerful attack made by the fem-bot. That was the only time she got the drop on him.
When the fight was finally over both parties were tired and beat up. Although Airachnid came out worse off injury wise, Megatronus would be fine. He heard Orion calling his name just after the large mech, with a little support from anther gladiator, entered the med-bay. Orion raced through the small crowd that had gathered to congratulate Megatronus on yet another win. The medibot however would not stand for the crowd while he treated his patients. The only bots allowed were family, which Orion, luckily, counted as. "Are you alright Megatronus?" Orion asked his usual post-battle question. The answer came to Megatronus as naturally as a human's breathing." Nothing the good doctor can't fix up." The red and blue mech seemed content with the answer given and sat next to the repair berth.
A/N This is kind of an introductory chapter, things will change as the story continues. Next Chapter will be just as the war is starting. That's the first official chapter.
