Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers, they are owned by Hasbro. This story was written as a request from leilad80 on Deviant Art and she is the one who come up with the ideas for the characters Bombshell (a femme, not the original), Nightwish, and Florent. I gave Nightwish her Decepticon nickname of Nightmare. This is strictly a fan fic and will have some mild violence with fighting and may have some implied slash in later chapters. No like – no read. No flames or harsh comments. Constructive criticisms welcome. Enjoy!
Bombshell was extremely saddened, as her parents had been shot and killed by rebels. Her twin sister Nightwish and their brother Florent were left on their own. Nightwish, more bold than her sister Bombshell, took Florent with her and left, leaving Bombshell to fend for herself, as Nightwish and Bombshell had had an argument right after their parents were killed. Bombshell, found alone and weak, was rescued by a young Jazz, who saw the young femme struggling to survive, and brought back to the Autobot base. In the mean time, Nightwish and Florent (too young to know any better) were captured by Starscream and brought back and introduced into the Decepticon fold. But before he could be trained, Florent one night unexpectedly ran away, and found a place to hide so that he could remain neutral. Neither sister realized that the other was still alive, though now in a much stronger form.
(Many years later)
Bombshell, was working in the field with Prowl, Bumblebee, and a few other Autobots (all wither Armada or G1 in series) were scouting for a sighting of the Decepticons. Bombshell, who felt that her brother and twin sister were permanently offline, was doing her best, trying to impress Prowl, as he was the one who would decide if she would pass for a scout. Prowl watched the femme closely as she scoured the ground for clues. This training thing was hard, but Bombshell knew if she passed this, she would be able to be more useful to her Autobot faction.
Meanwhile, over at the Decepticon camp, Nightwish, who often was called Nightmare, was training as well. She threw punches and kicks at the helpless bot she was fighting against. And with one final blow, she knocked the bot unconscious, earning praise from Megatron himself. She had proven herself as dangerous and a threat. Megatron ordered for Starscream to be untied and taken to the med bay. Megatron had killed two birds with one stone as he had the dangerous Nightwish practice her moves on the defiant seeker. And soon, Nightwish would make her nickname, Nightmare, come true for the evil Autobots.
Optimus was watching the scouting mission from afar, noticing that while Bee and Bombshell were doing well, several others of the trainees were not. And so, through the comm, Optimus told Prowl to send the others back to base to be trained as something else while Bombshell and Bumblebee were allowed to continue, and while this had only been set as a training session, something Bombshell would find would lead to a fight that no one had prepared for.
And so, while Bombshell dug around, she found something strange, a door. But it was not ordinary door, as it had no Autobot or Decepticon insignia on it. And as she reached down, the door opened, and feeling compelled to enter, Bombshell entered the small, barely lit cave. And as she explored further, she found something that she could not explain. It was a mech! Slightly younger than she was, but he had no symbol on him. He looked like he had lived a rough life and with all the dents and dings on his metal, Bombshell could not help but feel her spark go out to this young mech who looked like he was going to offline if he was left in the cave. And without thinking, Bombshell grabbed the young mech and resurfaced, startling both Prowl and Bumblebee. But with the injured mech, the others decided to head back, just as the Decepticons decided to attack, with Nightmare (Nightwish) leading the charge. Prowl immediately commed Optimus for help and soon many Autobots were on their way.
As soon as Ratchet arrived, Bombshell placed the unidentified mech in Ratchet's Ambulance mode, and Ratchet soon took off. Once Bombshell made sure the injured mech was safe, she joined in with Sideswipe who was trying to take on the femme leader of the group. But Sideswipe got knocked out, Bombshell fought the other femme ferociously. And having learned a few more tricks, Bombshell was able to not only defeat Nightmare, she even shot at Starscream and made the dumbaft have to go to the medical bay. All the Autobots were happy, except for Bombshell as something felt strange. But, shaking the feeling from her processor, Bombshell joined the rest of the Autobots and returned to base. She wanted to learn more about the injured mech that she had found.
When she reached base, Bombshell went straight into the med bay to figure out what was going on. Seeing that she would be able to give him information, Ratchet did not immediately chase out the femme. She provided all the answers she could as she watched Ratchet work on the young mech. Something about the mech seemed familiar to Bombshell, but she could not quite put her fingers on it. the biggest thing she wondered was how a mech that was obviously so strong and young had not been found by either side and drawn into the civil war. Bombshell felt proud that she was able to rescue the mech, but what plagued her mind was what did she really rescue the bot from?
And at the Decepticon base, Nightmare laid into Starscream for losing the battle. Starscream may have been second in command, but Nightmare (Nightwish) had been the leader for this run and he had not done as asked. But rather than reporting to Megatron first, Nightwish handed down her own form of punishment and then, and only then, did she go make her report to Megatron. She knew if she did not please Megatron, he would rape her without a second thought about it, but she hoped that she had at least gained enough info to please her leader so that he would spare her the pain of forced interfacing with whatever Megatron chose.
And after leaving Megatron's presence seemingly unharmed, Nightwish thought back to the fight and how that strong femme had fought her so well. Nightwish was not even aware that the Autobots had femmes on their team, as she had always fought against mech Autobots. Nightmare's optics flared as she realized that this femme bot seemed to almost anticipate her moves. Something was not right. Little did Bombshell or Nightwish realize or remember that they were twins, as they both had thought that they were the last ones of their family. But one bot who seemed to come back from the dead would soon reveal something to Bombshell that she never expected to know or learn.
