Tarantulas had always acted nice towards you ever since you had first joined the Predacons, but little did you know that this was all secretly part of his plan
You see, ever since you first joined the ranks of the Predacons, Tarantulas had been keeping an eye on you. He had never really liked or cared for Megatron as a leader, nor did he ever like being on Earth ever since they had landed there, but he knew that at first sight that you would be perfect for his brilliant scheme. He just needed a way to control you, to make sure you would obey his every whim
So, he had planted a central link in between your minds, so that way he could make you do everything he said and so he could practically mind control you even when he was in the middle of something important like a battle or something
You, on the other hand, were not so fond of this new psychological invasion of your own privacy since not only could he make you do as he pleased, but he could also see through your eyes and thoughts to get any information he thought was important
And so, every since that day, he had been practically part of you, making sure to pop in and out of your mind every now and then, and made you basically a slave, a toy for his own labor and sadistic amusement
