OMG
Your story reminded me of this scene of Friday Night Funkin
In mind Starscream
Starscream is lost in the purple darkness of the Void While he is trying to be freed From this place
but a Shade figure like him with violet eyes With a sinister smile He said forget about them go back to sleep
Starscream rejected He screamed Get out of my head and said no He continued to sing And at the last moment When darkness swallowed him Slowly He was about to lose hope But when he heard different voices Not to give up And he continued to fight
Then Starscream turned bright red driving away the purple darkness
Then there is a ghost Skywarp and Thundercracker cheer him on Then the ghost of Skyfire appears They help him too
That's how Starscream egained his freedom and his memories
How do you think everyone will react?
What if TFP Autobot Starscream did the heroic sacrifice during the 2nd Season Finale + Megatron captures then brainwashes him! 💜 How would the Autobots + their allies react to seeing Starscream with all his memories ERASED and he’s CORRUPTED by Dark Energon + Megatron? 💜 How would Soundwave, Knockout, Breakdown, Shockwave and Predaking react to the Brainwashed, Corrupted Starscream? 💜
Well, here goes another sad story (TvT)… You like to make me cry X')… Thank you for your request lovely anon ^^!
~~~
Optimus refused to abandon Starscream, so he decided to form a plan to save the Seeker from the Decepticons, even if he had to put his life in danger to do so. His Spark warmed up as the Autobots followed him, ready to fight this battle.
The jet was now part of their family, and there was no question of abandoning him! Miko wanted to join them in the coming battle, but Jack eventually managed to convince her to let them. They shouldn't be a drag on the Autobots, especially now.
Ratchet manages to triangulate the Nemesis' position, with the help of Wheeljack. Now it was time to attack! They walked through the gate together, weapons drawn. Arcee was quick to strike a Vehicon that blocked her path, followed closely by the white Wrecker.
Smokescreen crossed the floor of the ship with the Phase Shifter, finding himself easily in the large corridors of the Nemesis. He was going to do everything possible to save Starscream.
Bumblebee stayed with Bulkhead and Optimus, destroying the Decepticon forces. Megatron was quick to arrive, and wasted no time in attacking the Prime, who parried the ex-gladiator's sword strike with the Star Saber.
Smokescreen continued to walk around the ship, when he faced a familiar figure nearby. He smiled broadly when he saw the Seeker, and went towards him, calling out to him, surprised but happy to see that the jet was free.
The flyer raised his wings, before slowly turning towards the recruit, who stopped when he faced Starscream's optics. There was no form of recognition from the Seeker, who wasted no time in drawing his claws. The racing car felt his body tense, and frowned, scared and confused.
Arcee and Wheeljack heard a scream, and rushed towards the source, after the motorbike swore it was the recruit's voice. Both froze when they found themselves face to face with Smokescreen on the ground, energon flowing over the cold Nemesis floor, and Starscream above him, claws coated in their friend's energon.
“What the frag got into you?! cried out the warrior. Have you gone crazy?!"
The Seeker gave the duo a somewhat disdainful look, before raising his arm towards them, and triggering one of his missiles.

Optimus continued his fight against Megatron, while Bulkhead and Bumblebee took care of the Vehicons and Insecticons troops. It got more and more complicated when the Predacon joined the party, but fortunately Ultra Magnus eventually arrived, having managed to convince Ratchet to let him go into battle.
Suddenly, a huge explosion was heard, blowing out one of the large doors leading inside the Nemesis. Bumblebee beeped in distress when he saw Arcee and Wheeljack lying on the ground, badly burned. He and Bulkhead froze when they saw a terribly familiar figure moving through the smoke.
Starscream flew out of the ash cloud in his robot mode, before aiming his second missile at the Autobots. Optimus quickly pushed Megatron away, then stood in front of the duo.
“Starscream! Stop! We are here to help you! I'm sorry we didn't come before! But, we are here now! We can go home!"
Prime held out his hand towards the Seeker, inviting him to join them, his eyes shining with hope. The jet tilted his head in confusion, not seeming to understand the Autobots leader's speech. Starscream started his missile's procedure, before asking:
“Who are you again?"
Optimus widened his optics in horror, before seeing the Seeker's eyes, and their disturbing purple. The Prime finally heard Megatron laugh, who moved closer to him, then said:
“He’s already home, he’s never considered you as anything other than enemies.
- …
- See what he did to your team. I don't think you're the type to bring an enemy back to your side, are you?"
For the first time in a long time, the leader of the Autobots felt anger rising within him. This burning and devastating anger that rose to rage, pushing the Spark to want to destroy everything.
Optimus rushed towards the ex-gladiator, Star Saber in hand, before being suddenly stopped by Starscream, who stepped in front of him. The Seeker unsheathed his claws, and hit the Prime's cheek full force, who recoiled in surprise. The leader of the Decepticons aimed his cannon at his foe, then sneered:
“I’ll give you one more chance to leave!”
Optimus clenched his fists, before Bumblebee called for a ground bridge. Everyone eventually passed through the portal, and Prime was the last. He gave one last look to Starscream, who gave him a simple confused look, not understanding the sadness in his enemy's optics.

The children were devastated after hearing the news. Miko clenched her fists in rage, before violently kicking the TV cabinet, which fell to the ground, its screen shattering in its fall. Jack said nothing, while Raf cried silently, being consoled by June. Ultra Magnus remained with Bumblebee and Bulkhead, in heavy silence.
Arcee, Smokescreen, and Wheeljack were in the med bay with Ratchet, silently repairing them. He knew he could repair most of their wounds, but not all of them… Spark's were irreparable… The doctor didn't say a word, remaining in a deep and heavy silence, hiding his sadness as best he could to be the support of the group.
Fowler saw Optimus leaving the base, and was quick to follow him. The Prime looked up at the starry sky above him, and did his best to hold back his tears, when he heard the agent call out to him. The leader of the Autobots turned to him and asked:
“What is it, Agent Fowler…?
- I just wanted to make sure you was okay.
- … Not really…
- …
- I wasn't quick enough, I didn't manage to save Starscream... My incompetence condemned him to a fate worse than death...
- You must not give up! I'm sure we'll find a way to save him! To free him from Megatron's control!
- … No…
- …! Optimus, you can't know if you haven't tried!
- I already know it's impossible… You can't free someone from the power of the Dark Energon…”
William said nothing more, and bowed his head in sorrow, while Optimus' shoulders sagged in defeat.

KnockOut repaired the injured Vehicons with Breakdown's help, and looked apprehensively at the medical door several times, as the fear of Starscream and Megatron coming tugged at his Spark. The doctor didn't want to see the Seeker, especially in this state...
It wasn't Starscream he had in front of him… just an empty shell that bore no resemblance to the jet. The Velocitronian would really have liked things to happen differently, that events were not the same... The ex-Wrecker put a comforting hand on the shoulder of his Sparkmate, who looked at him gratefully, before sighing sadly.
"It's about Starscream, isn't it?" easily guessed the big blue robot.
KnockOut didn't even nod, he didn't need to. He clenched his fists, before saying with sorrow:
“I should have let him die…”

Soundwave checked with the surveillance cameras that everything was in order in the ship, and greeted his leader and the Seeker when they passed by him. The Communications Commander was ashamed to admit it, but he was deeply disappointed in his friend...
The spy plane would never have thought him capable of doing such a thing... Starscream may have gotten lost with the Autobots, and indeed he had to be brought back to the good cause, but to the point to...
Soundwave didn't really want to think about it. He couldn't think about it, imagining the pain of the jet as he lost his memories and his will was too sparkbreaking. The Communications Commander began to doubt despite himself… he wondered in which direction they were going, if they weren't coming into total contradiction with the main objective of the cause. Originally, wasn't their fighting against slavery...?

Shockwave was really surprised at the effectiveness of the Dark Energon, he didn't expect such a result, it was a major scientific discovery, and he was somewhat surprised that Predaking didn't share his… how he could describe this emotion? Maybe it was enthusiasm, in any case, the Predacon didn't seem to agree with him.
The large fire-colored robot held the Dark Energon in horror, avoiding the room in which it was kept like Rust. He also avoided the Second-in-Command of the Decepticons who exuded the same energy.
Predaking didn't understand, he couldn't see the point, despite a passion shared with Shockwave about science. Wasn't this discipline originally supposed to help people? Why use it for such a bad reason as manipulating someone, depriving them of their person.
The Predacon thought about the fact that he would have to look in the files to see if there was a cure for Dark Energon. He didn't really know why, but he refused to leave this robot in this situation!

Starscream was alone in his room, unable to get out the strange feeling that he knew the robots he had seen, he was sure of it. The Seeker scowled, never able to think straight. The past was always something blur, the answers only coming from the stories his Master told him.
The jet faced the night, his room lit by moonbeams, while the Autobots leader's optics returned to his memory. He put a hand on his window pane, and faced his own reflection.
He still couldn't understand where this sadness was coming from in his Spark, which seemed to ring in harmony with the sorrow seen in his enemy's optics. The flyer closed his eyes, trying to concentrate on some semblance of memory, something that could help him...
Starscream saw unknown memories flash through his memory, robots he had seen, but should not know. He felt his Spark growing warmer every second, as he saw himself with the Autobots again, as part of their family. A voice in his head was screaming at him to wake up, to not give up.
The Seeker felt a sudden pain in his Spark, as a painful memory washed over him. He placed a hand against his chest, feeling something crawling inside like a parasite.
The jet ventilated with difficulty, and looked out the window. He had a start of surprise when he saw the color of his optics change from purple to red, before returning to their normal color. During this transition, Starscream had a sliver of memory. A name, a simple name that was the symbol of great hope in his Spark.
"Optimus."
