"Alright lets get this started" Rodimus Prime called from his seat. Prowl groaned, Rodimus wasn't his first pick for a judge and Prowl couldn't bring himself to disturb Optimus. "Cybertail, arrested for attacking a fellow officer, multiple stab wounds, and incest actions with his sire" an officer said in the place of Prowl. Prowl was sitting in a wheelchair, both legs where injured and parts to fix him were hard to find. "Prowl, you will be the first to speak" Rodimus said as Prowl rolled himself to front. "Describe what happened" Rodimus said finally taking the session seriously.

"I've known Cybertail as only my partner, and only a slight fraction of a friend." He explained. "As an officer we vow to arrest criminals no matter what the relation to them are" there were murmurs among the audience. "But Cybertail failed to arrest one of his friends, I attempted to arrest the friend and Cybertail took a knife, and shoved it into my leg" Prowl winced, recalling the moment the knife cute straight through the armor. "He was protecting the criminal and at the same time making himself a criminal"

Some of CyberTail's friends stood in the audience and starting booing. They were on his side although there weren't that many. "Silence!" Rodimus yelled and soon everything was quiet again. Prowl stood up from the wheelchair, limping. "We all know him by now, for some reason he's found a way to be our friend, someone we thought we could trust" Prowl explained. "It should be within our best interest, and for the sake of Cybertron, arrest Cybertail" he said as the murmurs got loud again. Prowl sat down and rolled off back to his seat. "Silence. We all have our opinion of Cybertail, and I must agree he has made many friends, and enemies." Rodimus sighed. "Cybertail is not among us for that reason, Whirl, step up please"

Everyone went silent as Whirl stood and walked down the isle to the seat in front of everyone. "Whirl do you swear, for Primus, to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?" An Officer next to him said hesitantly. Everyone had feared Whirl in more then one way. "I do" Whirl chuckled. CyberTail's lawyer, Blurr, stood up. "Now Whirl, What is your experience with Cybertail?"

"I hate him, I saw Tailgate give birth to him, in the process hurt him, and I hated him the day he was born" he explained. "I'm not here to defend Cybertail, everyone knows that. I'm here, not to focus on the crime of attempted murder, but the incest incident." He chuckled. Tailgate, he was in the crowd and his optics were dry, he cried himself until he could no longer cry at all. "Cybertail has been what? A friend? An ally? A lover to more then one?" Whirl chuckled. "We all heard that you were the one that turned him in, why?" Blurr asked. "Easy" Whirl said as he leaned back on the chair. "He was hurting Tailgate, and he was betraying Sideswipe."

The murmurs began again, more quiet this time. "He swore himself to Sideswipe, and after a near death experience, he chose to sleep with his sire like he was a human red head in Alabama" Whirl laughed. No one but him laughed because no one understood what he meant. Whirl knew  exactly what he meant, yet he didn't. "Sideswipe was in the hospital, dying, calling for Cybertail, calling for the lover that Sideswipe tolerated after all these years. And where was he?"

Blurr was staring to doubt why he was defending Cybertail. "He was with his sire, fucking him like Sideswipe was dead, like TAILGATE was dead" Whirl continued. "Arcee, Prowl, Blurr and even myself were by Sideswipe's side, we never left. Cybertail walked out on Sideswipe many times"

"Whirl, if I may intervene, we aren't here to talk about his relationship" Rodimus pointed out. "I know" Whirl said. "Keep in mind, Cybertail isn't of age to interface, he's eighteen just like Sideswipe, and he was interfacing with an old mech, he's a two credit pleasure bot. He begs for a spike day and night" Whirl stopped, he was growling. "Play the video" he mumbled.

A video began playing of Cybertail stabbing Sideswipe, stabbing Prowl, and relentlessly interfacing with his sire, his moans echoed in the courtroom as Cybertail begged for more, his was calling out for Cyclonus.

There were three videos of the interface.

When it was over Blurr stood. "This is where my case ends, I have no no motive to defend my client" and walked out.

"Your honor" Whirl continued. "You saw the video, what do you think?"

Rodimus raised the small hammer from its resting place. "Cybertail will be sentenced to one thousand years in prison, for attempted murder, betrayal to his fellow officers, and underaged sex." The hammer hit the desktop and no one argued. "Whirl has turned the whole court against Cybertail in just one hour. Tailgate stood. "And What Of Cyclonus?"

"His memories and desires are going to be erased, and he will be cloned into a new Cyclonus." Prowl explained. "Is that legal?" Tailgate asked as he held a grip on his chair. "He's a decepticon with no rights in our society, it is."

Tailgate smiled and walked away. As did everyone else.

This session was over as soon as it began.
