Okay, this is my fourth story in the Allies series. I should come up with a formal name, but one just hasn't occurred so if any of my readers have a suggestion please send me a private message. It would be appreciated. I do not own the characters in the Transformer's world; I just love to make up my own stories about them.
Okay, this story is going to be different because the two main characters will not be bonded. This will definitely be rated M because of violence, sex, and torture so please don't read if you are of the squeamish variety. I hope you enjoy the story.
It had been a very long and cold winter in the outer planets of the Realm and Cassie was glad that it was finally over. Allie had cut her back to just over seeing the orphanages since she was now in her last trimester of carrying. It had been a surprise when the spark had split in two just after arriving back from her stay on the Nemesis, and Doc (Kacie) had confirmed Cassie's suspicions that she was carrying twins; but the stress of a higher risk pregnancy had left a negative impact on Cassie because she felt ill all of the time, and every little nuisance upset her. She missed Soundwave terrible and it did not help that she had also lost her nineteen year old gato (cat) who had died of old age. His sleek black ears and silky short fur would be missed by all the children in the orphanage as well as Cassie missing stroking his long slender body that would always ease the stress of a hard worked day. He had been one of the few indulgences that Cassie allowed in the orphanage that she resided in because she was afraid that getting too attached would harm the children's mental state but her precious Lumpy had won the hearts of the children and Cassie, until in the end the old black gato had taken their most precious secrets to the grave with him.
She was ready to return to her mate. Allie had made provisions so that they could stay the month and she was excited to see her creations and have her sparklings there on the Nemesis. Allie had made the contacts and arranged everything in the Realm and on earth so that all she had to have ready is her bags. Cassie checked everything she had packed. She threw in some of her favorite cookies and snacks that she could not get on earth as well as made dried fruits and jerky treats so that she would have something to snack on. She also had made some flavored powders and nutrient supplements to mix with water and energon if she should so desire. As she went through a final check list (since she ran out of everything the last time she visited) she decided to comm Shalon and see if she was ready.
"Cassie to Shalon."
"Shalon here, go ahead."
"Shalon, do you have everything that we will need? The spark monitor, the sparkling carrier, blankets?"
"Don't worry, Cassie. Doc has all items packed that we will need, and I have prepared myself and updated my training. I am packing now my bags. Did you pack the snacks and foods that you will need?"
"Yes, I have everything that I need and I made me some snacks. I should be covered. What about…"
"Don't worry so much. We have everything and I will be with you.
"Oh good. I trust Soundwave, but Hook I am not sure about. He makes me nervous."
"Well regardless, I am excited about going to a planet that I have never been to before. Do you realize that I have never even been outside of the Realm? Momma is nervous about me leaving but I don't care. I just want to experience everything that I can. I can't wait to see Chelsea. Someone told me that she was coming. Do you know if it is true?"
"Whoa! Shalon you need to take a breather! Yes , Chelsea is coming although I can't figure why. She has never wanted to contact any of the Cybertronians before but since I told her about Megatron and Barricade asking about her she seems determined to come."
"Allie will be bringing a team to the Autobot base. She says that they have had a few more landings and Wheeljack is coming to join them since we have our own engineering team."
"Well I can't wait to leave! I feel as though I am leaving something. Are you sure that we have everything?"
Yes Cassie. Do you have the diluted energon?"
"Yes, I have all that Doc made me. Starscream made some when I had gotten sick so they know how to make more if we run out. Shalon, I will see you when I get to the temple, Cassie out."
Cassie closed up her bags and grabbed her shoulder bag. She checked one more time to make sure that she had plenty of undergarments and listed all her toiletries. She couldn't squash the excitement that running through her system and she hoped that everything would go smoothly with her sparklings.
0o0o0o0o
Chelsea packed her two bags slowly. She was not anticipating this trip to Earth to turn out well, yet she couldn't stay away. Chelsea knew that she needed closure, but she had been so careful not to allow anyone know just who Metronious' true parentage was. She had kept silent when everyone here in the Realm had assumed that Megatron was his sire. They never questioned why her precious sparkling was predominately black with the grey stripes. Chelsea had had mostly black with purple coloring when she had been on Cybertron. It was so easy to fool everyone had it had been easy to manipulate the duty roster because Chelsea had known time was running out for her and she needed to get away before Megatron found everything out. Now she had lived what some would be a life time of living, but Megatron still thought she would come running back. Her platinum blonde hair fell around her face as she finished adding her toiletries and the little knick-knacks that she liked to travel with. She also made sure that she had her hair ties and pins as well as a few snacks and fruits packed since she had no idea what earth had in store for her.
She had pulled her platinum blonde hair into a French twist and powdered her translucent skin. All the others had skin that was a pale link, but Chelsea's skin held a strange glow that made her different from the other femmes. Many of the villagers were scared and thought of her as a strange witch even though they knew she was part of the ones that the oracle had transformed to protect the Realm; but Chelsea didn't care about their prejudiced ideas and held firm to her introverted ways. Even now she could not believe that she had allowed Cassie into talking her into returning to Megatron, but the desire to put at peace the longing in her spark would not abate. In truth, she did miss having a warm body to cuddle against, having someone to share her private thoughts with, and of course she missed the physical closeness of being joined to another. She also missed sharing her life with a youngling and protecting a life that was completely dependent on her.
Chelsea thought about all this as she finished packing everything in the two bags she was taking. She quickly placed them outside her door so that Comm would pick them up and carry them to gate that was situated several floors below the level of the hall and temple. She walked out into the chamber that housed the oracle. Chelsea could hear the hum of the crystal the encased the sentient being that the femmes had come to rely on, and she smiled as the memories floated through her CPU of the rituals and all the different things that had occurred in her life since coming to the Realm. She did not regret her life here even though it had been filled with wonderful and painful memories. She looked around the chamber, her gaze drifting over the glyphs that covered the walls of the chamber and even reached out into the waiting room outside of the temple. They were the same glyphs that had adorned the Allspark and if any of Optimus's group or even Megatron and the Decepticons were to see this place they would realize the significance of the oracle and it could put all of them in danger. Maybe it was good that Chelsea was going to face her past. She needed closure.
Allie had her team assembled. Raynie, Mia, Racine, Stargazer, and Aura were going with her to the Autobot base. Cassie, Chelsea, and Shalon would be heading to the Nemesis. Allie was very concerned for Cassie but Cassie wanted her sparklings born on the Nemesis with Soundwave so that they could have time to seal the family bond. Allie understood her need since she had been witness to Shia's and Jammer's bonding with their sparklings, but Allie was still nervous even with Shalon going as a nurse. It also helped that Shalon was one of Allie's best front liners and a powerful ally to have if Cassie should need help. Allie had trained her well and knew that her feisty nature would come in handy to assist and protect Cassie.
Allie had everything covered with Alpha Trion in the Realm. Things had definitely become complicated since the arrival of Sentinel Prime. Allie couldn't stand the mech, he reminded her of the senators and the superior classes from the Golden Age of Cybertron. He embodied everything that the femmes and mechs fought against when joining the Decepticons. Allie had always stayed true to the Autobots, but since she was no longer in direct contact with the war, she saw things differently. She and Sentinel had rubbed each other wrong on several occasions and if Alpha Trion had not been there to intercede, Allie knew that she would have lost her temper and probably killed him.
The femmes were ready and waiting on the ramp that went to the gate. Allie gave the order for the gate to open. She could feel the excitement coursing through the girls even if she wondered about the strange foreboding feeling emanating from Chelsea. She knew that Optimus would be on the other side waiting to embrace her, as well as the other Auotbot warriors and Megatron and his team of cons. She had made the arrangements, made contact with both factions, and briefed her femmes on the details.
"Girls, let's go. The gate is not going to stay open all day." She yelled as she heard cheers erupt from the group.
"Bout time we left." Was heard from Mia.
"I wonder how Bumblebee's going to react when he sees me." Said Stargazer.
"Hey Star, don't do anything that I wouldn't do!" Star looked up as Kiki yelled from the observation room.
"Don't worry, Kiki I will!" The girls laughed as they waved good bye to each other. Cassie rolled her eyes as she held her abdomen with one hand and pulled her tied bags that she had attached a delicate dolly to. The sparklings were kicking from feeling their mother's anticipation and Cassie was already starting to tire. The group walked up to the gate and then passed through. It never ceased to amaze Allie how one moment they would be in the controlled room of the holding gate and the next they would feel the heat of Diego Garcia.
As their eyes adjusted from being in a controlled room to outside in the bright sunshine the femmes saw the Autobots standing to one side as the Decepticons stood opposite to them. Allie shook her head as she felt the tension coming off both factions. Both had lowered their weapons, and none were powered up, but still old habits die hard, and the femmes quickly separated into their groups. Allie couldn't help but notice that as Cassie quickly went to greet her mate, Chelsea and Shalon held back. Chelsea's attitude confounded Allie because she thought that Chelsea would be happy to see her mate. Megatron certainly looked please that she was among them, but even he held back. Maybe it was a con thing, Allie didn't know, but as she watched them she felt Optimus walk to her and wrapped his massive arms around her smaller frame.
"I missed you." He quietly said as they both watched the Decepticons across from them.
"I missed you too." She replied. "Do you find it strange that Chelsea doesn't embrace her mate?"
"I noticed it too." Was all the Optimus said. He pulled Allie to him as his optics never left the cons. Sunstreaker and Sideswipe pulled Raynie between them as did Bumblebee reach for Star. Jolt came and placed himself next to Racine even if they were only courting he still felt protective of her. Aura just stood there smirking as she noticed how everyone was paired up.
"I'm Aura." She said to everyone. "But you can wait till we get inside the base to introduce yourselves." She started to walk towards the base as the gaped at her.
Allie looked over to the cons. Other than Cassie and Soundwave the femmes looked very nervous and Allie wondered again if this was a wise idea. Allie could see the looks that the mechs were giving Chelsea and Shalon and as Megatron ordered them to load their bags in Astrotrain Allie sent a warm loving caress through their bond to reassure them. Shalon turned back and grinned as she waved. Yes, Shalon would think of it as a big adventure, but Chelsea growing agitation was still troubling Allie.
"Chelsea," Allie called across the gulf that each faction left to ease tension. "We will be here a month. If you need anything, contact me."
"I have provided for their needs." Megatron sneered. "I don't think that they will contact you."
"We will be fine, Allie." Cassie said this as she waved good bye, and turned to watch her bags being loaded onto Astrotrain. She walked up and went into the shuttle. She looked back as she watched Shalon fussing over the items that she had brought with her.
"Careful! This is all items for the sparklings! I need them to be safe so that they will not be damaged." She stood there fussing with Thundercracker and Cassie marveled at how he took it. Chelsea just walked in quietly as Megatron followed her. She flinched as he placed his claws on her waist. It alarmed Cassie that Chelsea was so stiff and agitated, but with Soundwave being so protective Cassie hadn't had a chance to talk to the femme. Maybe they could talk on the way to the base. Shalon took her place behind Cassie has Chelsea took the seat across from her.
"Okay, this isn't the end of the world. Why do you guys have such long faces?" Cassie asked.
"I'm nervous but I am also excited. Did you see the wings on those seekers?" Shalon giggled and the shuttle shook. Cassie rolled her eyes at Shalon.
"You do know that Astrotrain can hear everything we say." Chelsea said flatly.
"Well I am keeping all options open!" Shalon scraped her nails gently along the seat as she felt Astrotrain shutter in response.
"Shalon, let's wait until we get to the base before you try anything." Cassie warned her.
"Why?"
"We are going to a Decepticon base. Shalon, this is not a free for all. Megatron will make the decisions for us and you may not like it. I explained all this before we left." Cassie told her gently but firmly.
"Cassie is right." The voice came from the communication dash. "He will decide where you will go, and he will also decide who you will go with." Astrotrain told the young femme. "He may even place you in his berth. You need to listen to Cassie."
"Astrotrain is right. Before you get any stupid ideas you need to keep quiet and watch first." Chelsea said. She shuddered to think what would happen to Shalon if Megatron decided to place her in his birth. Shalon picked up on her thoughts.
"I thought you were Megatron's mate. You didn't even hug or embrace after being apart for so long." Shalon said.
"Well he isn't very demonstrative when the enemy is present." Was all Chelsea said.
"Guys, can we talk when we get there?" Cassie asked.
"You okay, Cassie? You look suddenly pale." Shalon asked.
"I was fine, but now that we are moving I think I am going to be sick." Cassie felt suddenly weak and light headed.
"I think it is the high altitude. Doc hasn't been letting you fly wince you entered your last trimester. Astrotrain, will we be there soon?"
"Yes, we will. Just hang on sweet Cassie, please?" He said as he flew ahead of the other Decepticons. He didn't like the idea of Cassie getting sick in his interior and he commed Megatron to let him know why he was pulling ahead of the others.
"I'll try." Was all she said. Astrotrain sent a communication to Rumble who was monitoring the base. In the distance he saw the elevated bridge being extended for them to dock.
Astrotrain landed as smoothly as possible and allowed the femmes to disembark. The entrance remained above the Pacific for the other cons to land as the femmes were unloading their bags so that Astrotrain could transform back into his bipedal form.
"I see that you are making yourselves as home." Megatron commented.
"We were only concerned for Cassie, my lord. She became motion sick when we were traveling." Shalon replied to his caustic comment. As others landed on the platform, the femmes felt it begin to descend into the depths of the ocean. Cassie clung to Soundwave as her stomach kept lurching and rolling causing her to shudder as she tried to control the feeling of nausea. Soundwave held her against him as Megatron saw her face and Starscream stepped away remembering the last time he had been the target of her sickness. Cassie turned her head into Soundwave's chest as Megatron moved behind her rubbing her back.
"We're almost inside the base." He said quietly to her as Cassie grasped Soundwave's arms so tight that Megatron saw dents beginning to form. He rubbed her back as Soundwave whispered words of comfort to her.
The door swished open and Cassie quickly walked out. Rumble was there to greet her and Frenzy quickly hugged her but Cassie was more concerned about holding in her sickness.
"Soundwave." She whimpered as Megatron found an old data bin and shoved it into Soundwave's hands. He quickly placed in front of her as she purged her breakfast from earlier in the day.
"I am so sorry." She cried when she finished. Megatron just laughed. "Cassie, you are carrying. It is expected that your systems are going to be upset from time to time." With that, he slid the bin to Rumble who quickly disposed of it. Soundwave held her tenderly against him as Frenzy took her bags to their quarters. Shalon walked to her and checked her spark pulse and then felt her abdomen to make sure that the twins were a little more settled from the upset.
"Are you still feeling sick, Cassie?" She asked.
"No, believe it or not I feel much better. I knew I should not have eaten that fruit this morning." Cassie laughed weakly as Soundwave cradled her against him. She kissed his visor as she stood up with his help. Shalon smirked at the couple. They were so cute together.
"Decepticons, take them to the command center. I will be there directly." Megatron left to check the status of the Nemesis. Soundwave let go of Cassie and turned to follow his master.
"What's going on?" Shalon asked.
"Soundwave and Megatron are going to check all systems to make sure there was nothing compromised. It standard procedure. You will notice that Starscream will file a quick report because he is SIC, and then all of the mechs under Air Command will report to him."
"But all they did was go pick us up." Shalon said.
Cassie replied, "Yes, but they still have to follow protocol. It is a military base after all. It's just like our procedures and I am sure that the Autobots have their method of following command."
The mechs that were left gently prodded the femmes toward the control center. Shalon watched from beneath her lashes how one of the seekers was appraising her. She was smaller than her comrades but her dark honey hair, speckled with vivid gold highlights, reflected in the fluorescent lighting of the base; and Shalon smiled shyly back as she felt him touch her waist. She shivered from the touch and continued to follow Chelsea and Cassie as they walked into the control center. Shalon could see a large high back chair in the center and she assumed that this was their commander's throne. A moment later, Soundwave entered and walked to a monitor. Shalon noticed that he place a data chip into it and downloaded a file that he quickly saved. She figured that it was a report from the mechs that were on duty while they were picking them up. Megatron walked in a moment later, and Shalon couldn't help but feel the excitement that the large mech made her feel. Cassie looked at her curiously as she stood near Rumble and Frenzy as Soundwave came and took his place next to her. Shalon looked to her left and saw a large bulky mech walk in. He looked more like the Autobots as Shalon realized that he was a ground mech. His sleek black armor was shiny as if he had just cleaned himself up. In fact, as Shalon looked at each mech she noticed that all of them were clean, shiny from polish, and their paint had been touched up. She smirked and wondered which of these mechs that Megatron would give her to, but it was a shame that Megatron was taken because it would have been nice to be if he took an interest in her.
"Chelsea, come here!" Megatron boomed across the room as he took his seat. Cassie looked at Chelsea as she hesitated and then walked slowly to her lord. All optics was on Chelsea as she walked to Megatron, knelt, and bowed her head. Megatron leaned forward and placed his claw under her chin to lift her head. His other hand went to her hair as he pulled the pins out and allowed her hair to cascade around her shoulders stopping at her waist. Chelsea flinched as she felt the pins fall heedlessly on the floor as Megatron tugged her closer to him. She trembled as she placed her hands on his knees.
"My lord, it had been a long time." She quietly said. Cassie watched her but she also noticed the alarmed look on Barricade's face plates. Soundwave's helm turned toward Barricade and Cassie felt alarm go through his system as realization of what Soundwave had picked up from his processor. Cassie looked at Soundwave.
"Oh Shit!" Was what she said to him as they both realized the implications of what was occurring.
Unknown to Chelsea, because she had not seen Barricade come in, she continued to stare at her lord as he watched her pale iridescent face. He smoothed a claw over her features taking in the smooth cheeks, the slant of her eyes, and how her hair was so soft and white.
"So ethereal to look at. You look so different from the others, Chelsea." He murmured the words as if in a trance as he touched her. Chelsea shook as she stayed in the kneeling position until he pulled her up into his lap. She felt his hands smooth down her side, as he brushed the side of her breast, and rested it on her hip. Chelsea gasped at the sensation.
"No kiss for me?" He queried.
"My lord, I will be happy to kiss you." And Chelsea leaned toward him and placed a chaste kiss on his lips. Megatron stopped her as she pulled away. He looked at her, questioning why she was so hesitant.
"Chelsea, just why did you come?" He asked as he became suspicious of her.
"I came to see you, my lord." She replied, but Megatron could sense her fear. Cassie took a step forward, but Soundwave prevented her from coming any closer. Shalon looked on confused by the sudden change in the air. It felt suddenly colder, tensor as she looked between Chelsea, Cassie, and the mysterious mech that she read from Cassie's CPU that his name was Barricade.
"Cassie, what is going on?"
"Not now, Shalon!" Shalon was confused by the conflicting emotions between them. She took a step closer to Megatron's throne, but a hand stopped her from going. She looked up into the optics of a red seeker.
"Don't, he will tear you apart." Starscream quietly told her. She looked up at him as he kept her pulled close to him. She turned back to see that Megatron had grasped the back of Chelsea's head by her hair and was studying her features.
"What are you not telling me?" Megatron continued to study her as she held still under his gaze. He suddenly let her up and she slid off his lap as he stood.
"No matter, tonight you will finally belong completely to me!" She heard gasps from around the room. She knew that everyone had thought she had been bonded to Megatron a long time ago, but she never dispelled their assumptions. She glanced at Barricade who was behind her. He took in her panicked expression and quickly went forward to help her.
"Barricade, what are you doing?" Megatron bellowed.
"My lord, please! It had been a long time since they have been here." He was stalling, he knew it, but to tell Megatron the truth would get both he and Chelsea killed.
"Just because they have been absent all these years doesn't give you the right to touch what is mine!" Megatron took in Chelsea's whimpers as Barricade gently stroke her back and realization suddenly dawned on Megatron's features. He stepped back as everyone saw the rage slowly roll through his systems. The cassettes began to whimper next to Cassie as she pulled them in close to her and Soundwave. Even Starscream pulled Shalon protectively into his embrace for fear that Megatron would hurt all of them.
"How long!" Megatron hoarsely demanded as he watched the couple on their knees before him. "How long!" Megatron grabbed up Chelsea roughly by the hair. She cried out as he threw her against the base of his throne. Chelsea whimpered from the where the corner caught her in the ribs.
"My lord, it was never intentional! It just happened, we couldn't help how we felt!" Barricade said pleadingly. He heard the gasps and comments float around the room. No one had known about Chelsea's and Barricade's involvement and the shock was impenetrable as everyone looked on in horror of what the dark lord would do to the lovers.
