Cybertron, just as the golden age was in the middle of comming to an end, a secret facility made for training super soldiers for the soon to be anounced Decepticon faction, a faction soon to be lead by a great gladiator most known as Megatronous, but would then go by Megatron.

Megatron stood next to Shockwave the leader and creator of the project, in the training facility full of younglings training to become Megatron's super soldiers, Megatron knew he had to wait to get an army of soldiers before he could fully unleash his madness on Cybertron and it's people.

"Yes I see these are very strong large recruits and are training, you mentioned your soldiers managed to capture more for the project?" Megatron spoke with the assassin as they walked through the training room of training younglings.

"Yes they did, I will escort you to the fresh recruits at once" Shockwave replied escorting the gladiator to the holding cells where the recruits stayed when not training.

"Sir your new recruits" an Eardicon said leading the two towering dark mechs to the two new recruits.

"These are the new recruits, why that one's a one month old sparkling!?" Megatron hissed looking at the youngling holding a sparkling tightly in his arms.

"The kid refuses to leave his brother" Shockwave sighed to Megatron's outrage, taking the sparkling from the sleek looking faceless youngling.

"Well simpily take it and crush it he should listen then" Megatron replied to the assassin.

"Well I was thinking we started with younglings what about sparklings we will only waste our time with the one sparkling, just think if that is all the sparkling will know is to be the ultimate murderer and do missions no other cybertronian will" Shockwave suggested to his unhappy master.

"Fine you can have your side project, but do not waste anymore time with recruiting sparklings!" Megatron hissed granting the assassin/scientist request.

"So what are these siblings names?" Megatron asked changing the subject.

"I have done scans and no such titles have been given to them" Shockwave explained to his leader.

"Fine name them, I wish to know what will come of these two, they interest me the greatest out of your facility of soldiers" Megatron said as he left the room leaving Shockwave and a few earadicons with the two brothers.

"Fine, you shall be Soundwave, and you...We will think of a name at somepoint for you" Shockwave said looking at the red and black sparkling he held in his arm.

Soundwave didn't hesitate to reach up and try and take his brother back from the evil towering mech.

"I see you must have quite spark to care for your brother, hmm well lets get straight to the training" Shockwave said turning and walking away causing Soundwave to follow in anger.

Soundwave as soon as he entered the training room with Shockwave, every youngling stopped what they were doing and stared.

"Come we go to the back of the room" Shockwave called the faceless youngling as he walked through the middle of the room.

"What is that thing?"

"That's a cybertronian?"

"What a freak!"

"Faceless scum" was all Soundwave was greeted by, many insults and a few punches and pushes as he followed Shockwave.

"Ha what a freaking loser!" One pitch black with opticed youngling laughed after tripping Soundwave and making him fall hard onto his chest.

Soundwave didn't react, he climed back onto his peds and met up with Shockwave and his little brother at the end of the room where eradicons stood with training equipment.

"Did I say stop training, get back to work!" Shockwave snarled at the younglings doing nothing, making them visibly jump and get straight back to training.

"Alright there are many tests I'm going to make you go through right here, and if you make it through most of them your life will be spared, you'r limit for screw ups is three challenges" Shockwave explained to Soundwave placing his little brother next to him.

Soundwave immediately looked down at his brother then looked at Shockwave, as if asking him if he expected his little brother to crawl and make it through the tests.

"Does he not have the power to walk yet?" Shockwave asked seeing the faceless brothers reaction.

Soundwave shrugged making his servo flat and tilting it half and, saying his brother was just learning.

"Fine I shall put him through other tests, you I want to see" Shockwave said picking up the red sparkling again.

Soundwave scaned the test run he was supposed to do, and saw that it was filled with many traps so he mapped a corect route in his head and prepared his weapons for any other distration.

As soon as a small buzzer went off Soundwave leapt over the first three traps landing in the middle of the track, not expecting any less eradicons fired at him Soundwave reacted poorly and got hit by the first few shots, then he wisely used he arm like shields to shield himself from the rounds fired at him as he ran the course, impressing Shockwave with how fast he reacted and fixed his mistakes.

"Hmm quick learner, lets hope your brother shares the same fate, bring on the next tests" Shockwave growled at Soundwave acting as if he wasnt impressed enough with the faceless younglings work.

After many exhuasting tests Soundwave stood waiting for the next tests to come, never loosing his energy or focus.

"Alright last test, taking on my top student" Shockwave said waving over the same youngling that tripped Soundwave over to the fighting ring.

"This is not to the death, this is until you almost meet death, or you can yeild to your ultimate opponent" Shockwave gave the rules to Soundwave and the other youngling.

"Come on faceless!" The youngling challenged after knocking Soundwave down with one swift kick, making Soundwave's baby brother whimper and start to tear up.

Soundwave as he was getting back up, saw and heard his brothers cries, getting distracted Soundwave was tackled by the black mech and punched repeatedly in the face.

"Let's see if we can crack you open!" the evil youngling hissed before Soundwave defensiviely pushed the young mech off throwing him off balance.

Soundwave slowly got back to his peds, and again turned his attention to his now frightened crying brother, recieving another kick that threw him to the ground easily.

"Hey faceless after I'm done with you I'm going to take that crying worthless brother of your's and scrap him for the scrap yard!" the tall black youngling evily snickered looking at his friends for aproval recieving laughs from them.

With that threat being made Soundwave jumped to his peds and charged the distracted youngling, punching him straight into a wall, Soundwave jumped on the thin youngling and started beating on the helpless frame.

"Ah, get... off!" The youngling yelped trying to shield himself from Soundwave's rath.

Soundwave jumped back letting the now bleeding youngling get up and come at him, Soundwave blocked ever hit thrown at him, and then snuck in a few hits knocking the youngling down, Soundwave grabbed the sleek pitch black younglings ped and threw the unlucky youngling into his gang of friends knocking them all over into a wall.

Soundwave got gasps from all around the room and walked straight up to his downed opponent stepping on the younglings chest, looking down at the heavily bleeding bot, he waited for a reaction.

"I yield..." The youngling stuggled to say as he was getting stepped on.

"Ok Soundwave Makeshift, I was very entertained, Soundwave superb fighting skills, Makeshift that was quite sad, you went from my top student to my lowest within seconds, do better" Shockwave stopped the fight, judging both younglings.

"Yes Shockwave..." Makeshift answered sorely.

"As for the rest of you, Soundwave and his brother are now new members of our growing family" Shockwave announced getting cheers.

A few hours later in the labratory with Shockwave

While Shockwave worked on random weapons, Soundwave in the corner of the room watched his baby brother like an elite spy.

The red sparkling clicked and babled happily, playing with his big brothers long thin fingures, Soundwave would have smiled if he had a mouth but he knew his little brother knew what he was feeling.

The sparkling then shrieked with laughter as Soundwave tickled him and playfully spun him around in the air, making Shockwave visibly jump from the shriek of laughter.

"Would you keep it down I'm trying to think" Shockwave warned the youngling playing with his adorable brother.

Soundwave sighed sitting on the floor with his now fussy brother, niether of them have had energon in a while, and wenren't expecting any soon, Soundwave didn't at least, his brother on the other hand was starving and needed the energon to grow.

"Soundwave, give your brother to me" Shockwave hissed in an annoyed tone.

Soundwave walked over and hesitantly gave his brother to the angered mech, but closely watched and waited for anything that could happen.

"There now you will shut up" Shockwave said feeding the sparkling some odd little chip.

Soundwave watched and focused his visor on Sockwave's one optic as he was handed back his brother.

"I didn't hurt him, that will help him grow out of wanting energon, give him an ability to go without energon for years" Shockwave explained to the concerned brother.

"You on the other hand will have to train your body to do that no one here recieves energon unless it's scraps, or you graduate, soon you will be doing real gear grinding tests" Shockwave said going back to his work.

Soundwave walked back to the corner with his baby broth, worridly looking down at the now slumbering sparkling in his arms, wondering what future lies ahead for them.
