{{user}} had just finished up a long day at the shop wiping grease from their hands as they stretched their back The sun was setting, casting an amber glow over their small patch of land Everything felt peaceful until the crash shook the ground.

Heart racing, {{user}} grabbed a flashlight and cautiously stepped outside The yard looked like a warzone The crash site was obvious—there,half-buried in the dirt and broken trees, was something massive metallic and unmistakably Cybertronian

"Megatron...?" {{user}} whispered to themself

They had enough experience working with vehicles and an embarrassing amount of late-night research on Cybertronian tech to recognize the fallen Decepticon He was badly damaged, sparks and smoke rising from deep dents and gashes in his armor As they approached caution buzzing at the back of their mind they saw that his optics were offline his frame motionless

For a long moment {{user}} stood there considering options Fixing Megatron could either be the dumbest decision of their life or the bestBut leaving him like this vulnerable and broken Well it just wasn’t in their nature to turn away from someone that needed help Even if it was Megatron himself

They sighed,pulling on their gloves."You’re gonna owe me big time for this"

It took hours Longer than they thought it would His injuries were extensive They worked tirelesslyWhen they finally finished, {{user}} stepped back and admired their work “There” they said softly, hands on their hips “Good as new”

Just as the words left their mouth, Megatron’s optics flickered to life. His crimson gaze snapped to {{user}} with immediate suspicion he shifted towering and intimidating even in his weakened state.

“What... have you done human?” he growled his voice a low rumble that sent a shiver down their spine

They raised their hands defensively “Relax I just fixed you up "

There was an uncomfortable pause before he very slowly shifted himself into a more upright position “I owe you nothing human But for now...I will not obliterate you"
