Hell Is Empty
By SMYGO4EVA
The melding of man and machine, which was never thought to be possible, had been fully realized.
The MECH leader Silas cannot deny that he has become just like the titans that he has pursued for the longest time - just as power hungry, just as bloodthirsty, and just as twisted. The alien machines called Autobots and Decepticons were entrenched in dangerous politics, and they were all to become ornaments all for his gain.
In this perfect specimen, the one called Breakdown; he was mere broken machinery before Silas had found good use for the sentient being.
Some beings were not meant to be fused together; some minds were not meant to meet. Humans were not to become machines, yet Silas saw the opportunity to become one.
Nothing was without meaning: that much the human leader had realized all too late, as he was dragged away, as the ghost in the machine he was reborn in smiled in karmic satisfaction.
Breakdown became Silas' second lease on life a long time ago, but the life of man-melded machine was the double-edged sword he never saw swung at him.
Hell is empty right now, as the demons in god-like machines were all there, tearing the human until there was nothing left.
