[challenge] Backstory Challenge

[ajremix]

So it's JUST slow enough for me to put this up. It'll be the first of my (hopefully) monthly 24-hour challenges. If I can recall to do this on a monthly basis it'll be (idealy) on the first or within the first week of the month.

So this month's challenge is going to be backstory. Pick a character- whatever character you know (or think) I'm familiar with and I'll write a short drabble depicting their past however I see it. Because I probably won't be able to get to these as quickly as my previous challenges, you're free to pick three characters at a time. After I've finished all three of your challenges, you may pick another three. If someone else has picked a character you wanted to see a story of, you can still ask for them and I'll just do a different scene.

CHALLENGE IS NOW CLOSED BECAUSE GOOD GOD I HAVE SO MANY PROMPTS I SHOULD'VE THOUGHT THIS THROUGH MORE^^;;

Prowl

He held himself perfectly still, as if he were merely a statue and not a mech. Sentinel Prime wasn't certain he wanted such a lifeless mech as his second. "Prowl," he said with little conversational attempt, "you have an impressive record."

"Thank you, sir."

"It says that you're also very strict."

"I believe proper discipline should maintained by all ranks in every area."

Sentinel Prime wasn't certain how long this mech was going to last before he got annoyed with him. "Your work ethic apparently transcends your duty stations. Most I've spoken to have been impressed with your accomplishments."

"It is merely my duty, sir."

"Prowl," Sentinel's tone was sharp and dropped all pretense of a casual interview, "you are to be my second in command here. I don't want attitude from you or anyone. I expect immediate response from all my officers, I want all of them to do as I say. You are not here to question me, understood?"

"Of course, sir."

"I've had others come into this position expecting to promote their own agenda. This will not be tolerated."

"I would expect not." Prowl answered plainly, looking- for the first time -as if he were truly seeing Sentinel Prime. "I was created to serve the Autobot cause. I will not do anything to jeopardize our leader or our morals."

Wow. Says a lot about Sentinel, there. I love how you portrayed Prowl's response.
