[Transformers] Once upon a time there was a machine

"It's illogical."

After listening to the voice message, it took Shockwave a few minutes to react and mutter his finale to himself.

Yes, since I chose the best TF, it is really illogical that the best TF is not me.

But Shockwave also knew that there were many illogical things, and their intelligence officers from the Decepticons had done such things once or twice.The last time Shockwave rebelled against Megatron and tried to become the leader of the Decepticons - Soundwave seemed to obey, and everyone, probably even Megatron himself, believed it.After all, when Starscream 'usurped the throne', didn't Sonic become a very obedient deputy?This creates the illusion that whoever owns the Decepticons owns Soundwave.

Shockwave paid a heavy price for his delusion, and Soundwave and Starscream plotted against him, bringing Megatron back to power.As punishment, he was decapitated and imprisoned for many years.

While being punished, Shockwave finally reasoned out a logical explanation - Soundwave doesn't care about Starscream's superiority, because Starscream is quite 'naive' and easy to manipulate.Starscream's 'superior position' is actually the same as Sonic controlling the overall situation.As for Megatron... Soundwave's logic thinks that Megatron is more suitable to lead the Decepticons than himself, well, although it seems to be a completely different result from the perspective of Shockwave, it is indeed the case from the logical analysis of Soundwave.Soundwave just made a decision in line with his own logic and interests.

Why did he plot against himself? Shockwave never asked Sound Wave. They are all Decepticons. Didn't he plot against Megatron?But why asked Megatron not to kill himself, Shockwave asked, because it was illogical.

"The last sound you can hear, is mine."

What answered him was the voice of the tape recorder.

Shockwave was silent, even he wanted to complain, hey, this is someone’s confession of true love/enemy declaration to you, right? Is it right to just flip the COPY over and broadcast it to me without adding sound effects?

Seemingly sensing his misunderstanding from Shockwave's silence, Soundwave finally explained.

"From the first time I saw you, I knew that one day I would kill you. I will charge for your life, not this time."

Shockwave knew he shouldn't digress, but he still couldn't help but mourn for the Autobot propagandist. In other words, the suspected confession that was faked as a declaration of challenge was completely regarded as a declaration of challenge, right? ?

It's also rather illogical that Sonic hates himself.It seems that I have never done anything that makes Sound Wave hate it, except for countless meritorious deeds and being repeatedly entrusted with important tasks by Megatron.Moreover, Sound Wave often follows him, staring at him fieryly with the optical mirror, isn't it interesting to him?This is illogical. (It’s surveillance! Do you know what surveillance is?!!!)

But let him live even if it's annoying, because Soundwave knows how important he is.This once again proves that I was not mistaken, Sonic is indeed the second most calm and logical perfect TF in all of Cybertron besides himself.

Soundwave's impression of Shockwave is what he looks like now. The first time Soundwave saw Shockwave in his memory was when Megatron introduced him.But Shockwave is sure that this Decepticon intelligence officer who has all the information also has something he doesn't know—for example, he has seen Soundwave earlier and knows his existence.

Soundwave didn't have all the information back then, because Soundwave wasn't even working for the Bat-senator back then.

The shock wave at that time had not yet become the perfect TF of logic supremacy, because the shock wave at that time——

"Member! Please save my friend, please save him quickly!!"

The self in the memory, with the gorgeous paint, and the clever head sculpture, turned around in surprise.

"Your friend?" he heard his own voice ask.

"Yes, my friend, his name is... Soundwave."
