))Starscream growled, straining his processor to remember what his life was back before he was an energon seeker. "Well, I was poor, roaming the streets for whatever energon I could find to bring back to my creators! My 'mother' was slowly dying from a highly infectious virus and my 'father' was suffering from a large battle wound!! Life was hard and every time I had a streak of good luck, I was knocked back down to the ground, forced to work constantly for my creators' welfare!! One day when I came back with the day's earned energon..." Starscream began to slow down, his painful memories returning. "... They were... They were..." He fly into an air pocket and jerked back. He quickly steadied himself. "Crying out in pain... I stood outside and watched through the window... Apparently a couple of theiving bots busted in and demanded all of my family's credits... When my creators explained they had none to give, the theives thought they were lying... They killed both of them... right in front of me... while I just stood and watched..." Starscream gulped back a small cry of regret. "They cried out my name... And I never came through for them..." The jet suddenly shot downwards, his blasters roaring. Starscream shot off towards the mine, leaving Thrust behind.
