CHAPTER 1: TWO DIFFERENT LIVES:

The leaves slowly fell down from the threes in the only organic part of Cybertron; it was a beautiful autumn in Iacon; even when the war between the cybertronians had started again, the planet still being beautiful, and nobody but Eriel enjoyed it more than anything, she spent most of her time, down an old and big three, writing down, what she thought about the war between the Decepticons and Autobots…she was a very smart and graceful fembot, but not any fembot but Optimus Prime's and Elita One's daughter, so she may be the one supporting the war to bring peace to the universe…but she didn't agree with that…even when her parents and grandparents force her to fight during the battles…

"I think this war is absurd, but my dad says that it leads us to peace, I wish someday both, my dad and understand that we do not need guns, we need just words…" she wrote down, then she looked up: "It's time to go back" she said and close her notebook. ¶Eriel is a pink, red and black colored autobot warrior, her car model is a Lamborghini, born in a beautiful day of March, blue optics just like her father's, an excellent dancer, raised by Jazz, Chromia and Ratchet 'cause of her parents constant battles, she has a big brother called Optimus Prime Jr. A sensitive fembot, she loves to help the others, and her secret love was Ratchet, the famous autobot doctor. When she was a little girl Primus gave her a sword called Galaxy light the one she used in the battles, and Primus told her.-'This sword will bring the balance between the two forces of Cybertron' ¶

During her way to the base, she saw the three decepticon seekers flying above her, she didn't pay any attention to them and continued her way, 'till she arrived to the autobot base:
-"Its late honey, hurry up, Starsounder is waiting for you"- Chromia told her, she ran to Soundy's classroom, there she found her classmates, that of course she didn't like at all, or we should say that they didn't like her, just for being the commander's daughter, besides to be great student and dancer, she changed her boots to a soft and delicate pair of pumps:

"Eri, where you've been honey? We can't do our routine without you" Soundy told her.
"Okay, I'm ready" she took first position.
"Fabulous, third position and then a triple spin girls" Soundy said

Eriel did it without any complication, what causes envy in the other fembots, she was the most important member in the class, despite the fact that both, Jazz and Star Sounder loved her to die, she also took piano lessons, and literature, but she had a big problem, she has never been such a friendly girl, due her pacifistic philosophy, (she blindly believed that the Decepticons had justified reasons to fight) and due her popularity between the mechs. She was like more boyish than girly, and used to spend time with her father's soldiers and her only true friend in the whole universe:
Hound Jr. And of course, she relied on her big bro, but he only visited his parents on holidays and special days for them due his training to be a commander in the future…And Eriel soon would started hers too… to become the fembots' leader and a great tactician…

*After a while*

"Excellent, its all for this class and don't forget to practice for the Saturday's performance"
Eriel slowly took off her pumps and walked along the room, as she heard the other femmes talk about her, she just half smiled and shook her head, then she felt a hand on her shoulder: "Good job, I can say that you're the best in this room"- it was Hound supporting her as he always did it: -"Thank you, did you see the whole class?"- She asked as Hound hugged her: -"Yup, I've seen all, and I know that you will do it great on Saturday night!"- Hound answered, they were walking to the door when she heard a voice calling her: -"Eri, darling, did you finish your homework? And don't go too far from the base; it's almost dinner time!"- Jazz told her giving her a big grin.

-"Okay nanny, I won't do it! And don't worry, I yet finished my homework!"- She answered while she gave him a kiss. They walked to the base's hallway: -"I wonder why I have to be such a good girl; those girls want to kill me!"- She told to his friend, they sat down and watched the first star appear in the sky: -"Don't you worry; they envy your style and your loveliness!"- He answered pulling her close to his chest: -"No matter what happens, you will always have me here for you, I'll never leave you!"- Hound was her tears napkin, she was already crying, she was alone most part of the day and when she had the chance, she let her self out crying in Hound's arms.

¬Hound Jr. is a green military Jeep, with tender soulful puppy optics, born in may 26th, he had been Eriel's best friend since they were 3 eons old, and since this he had been in love with her, but he hadn't had the courage to confess her his feelings. During the battles he protects Eriel with his protons cannon that he used to call hailstorm¬

After a while Hound stood up: -"Well, I got to go, my dad is waiting for me, I'll be here tomorrow at first hour, to go to the school okay?"- She softly nodded.
She watched her friend walked away, then she decided to visit her favorite person in Cybertron, she walked to the R-Bay and knocked the door: -"Come in!"- She heard the voice that so many times before had given her a warm place to cry, or to sleep when she was afraid of something: -"Hi Rache!"- She walked to the blue eyed doctor: -"Hi darling! I was wondering when will you come to visit me!"- He hugged her and gave her a kiss.

-"I came to ask you, if you will be able to go to my performance on Saturday"- She sat down on his desk, as she used to do: -"Yeah, you know that I would never lose the chance to see you on stage, I love the way you dance!"- He answered. She brought out a ticket from her pocket, and gave it to him: -"I'll be waiting for you!"- She said. He tenderly smiled: -"I'll be there my angel baby!"- She smiled back: -"Rache, if I get older and I don't find somebody who replaces you, will you marry me?"- She shyly asked him.

-"Of course I'll do it, but you're too young to think about that!"- He said stroking her helmet: -"Let's go to eat something, I'm starving"-. Eriel took his hand and then both of them walked out the R-bay, Ratchet was like her platonic love, he had taken care of her for so long, and he loved her that much, more than she thought…mean in a different way.

*Decepticons' base*
The three seekers returned and informed his leader: -"we had a big chance, on Saturday night! Optimus Prime's girl will have a show, so we can kidnap her and then we could kill her!" my beloved leader- Starscream said.

-"That sounds good to me, and you will be the one in doing it"- Galvatron turned to his young and only son.
-"Dad you know that I hate this stupid war! Besides I don't think it would be an honorable way to do it, she's innocent"- Megatron Jr. replied.
-"I don't want to hear your pathetic excuses, you will do it, end of the discussion!"- Galvatron pointed out.
Megatron shook his head: "I will dad"- he gave a hard look to the seekers as his father walked away.

-"Skywarp, I won't do that!"- He told to the purple seeker.
-"But your father wants you to do it, so you have no options left!"- The seeker answered. Megatron stood alone in the middle of his father's office, deep inside he was a tender mech, a disturbed mech, who had been suffering for her mother's dead. He didn't even know why he was with his father maybe just for his sister and his step mother; he just wanted to be free, away from the war, away of the military stuff, away from everything…he wished to be dead in such a crucial moment, but then he saw her mother's face smiling at him, and all was okay, 'Skywarp is right, I have no options left' he thought, then he made a decision: he was decided to kill that innocent fembot.

µMegatron is a black and silver Walther P-38 gun, born on March 7th, red optics, gentle spark. He hated the war since he was a kid, when his mother Ereen died, but he never hated the autobots for that, he is the only mech in the family and future commander of the Decepticons, he has got 2 twin sisters: Leana and BlueStar they are as cruel as their father, and he also has a little sister: Elektra, the one he loves the most for her weakness and disagreement with the war too. His father hadn't enough time for him, so he grew up with Soundwave who he considers his second father. Unicron had given him a special power called Galaxystorm, but he warned him that this power will only help him in his darkest hour. µ

**The next day** Eriel walked to the base after school.
When she arrived, and she ran to her father's office, she knocked on the door and walked in: -"Daddy, I got the tickets, so I hope you and mom be able to be there!"- She said kissing her father tenderly.

He took the tickets and gave her a sad look:-"Honey, I'm so sorry, but we have things to do, in Queentessa, we had an important meeting which could lead us to the peace in the whole universe, so mom and I won't be able to attend, but I will send this to your brother and your cousin, okay? That way you won't be alone."-

Eriel held back her tears and then she softly nodded; -"Right dad, I won't be alone"- she walked to him and kissed him coldly, she felt a little bit guilty for wanted her parents with her, when they have 'more important things to do'.

Optimus noticed that his little girl wasn't okay and he decided to call her mother, he dialed the #1 on his communicator: -"Elita!" a little beep:-"Sup, hon!"-
-"Our little princess doesn't like the idea of you and me in Queentessa by the Saturday night"- he told his wife.
-"Well, I wouldn't like it either if I were her!"- She said as she was chewing something.

-"I know it, but there's nothing we could do about it, we have to go to that meeting!"-He answered.
"No, we have not, we should go, and that's very different!"-she pointed out. Both of them stood there in silence for a moment.-"Let's try for one moment in our lives to be there for our daughter, we had lost too many moments with her for this stupid war!"- Elita said, voice half broken.
-"its okay honey, I'll do all to be there by Saturday night, I promise you!"- Prime said.
"Don't tell her about this; let's make a surprise party for her!"-Optimus suggested.
"-Aw Honey that's the sweetest idea you have ever had!"- Optimus coughed due such an offensive comment, and Elita just giggled. They continued talking for a while, and contacted all the persons in the base, it should be the biggest party ever…while Eriel cried in silence in her room.

*By Saturday in the non, Megatron, was walking along the only lake in Cybertron, he was thinking about the night event, and he was thoughtfully, he didn't want to kill that innocent girl, but it was his destiny, he was a 'con and he had to obey his father.

He kept on walking 'till he found a beautiful place, surrounded by flowers and a big three, the water of the lake was shining, and then, in the edge of that beautiful place, he saw a beautiful fembot, wearing a white suite and she had beautiful white angel wings, her deep blue optics were full of tears, he was fascinated with that creature of Primus, he stood there, staring at her, without saying a single word, just watching her tears fall down.

-"For Unicron, I have never seen such a beautiful fembot"- he told to his self.
Then his communicator sounded:-"Megatron, where are you, you father is 'bout to kill us!"-It was Thundercracker's voice:-"I'll be there in 5 minutes, I promise!"-He watched her for a moment, wishing to know her…then he flew away.

Eriel heard a sound and turned, it was almost time for her performance, and she didn't want to do it. Her parents wouldn't be there, and that hurt her so much, 'cause it seemed that they didn't care about her, she didn't have a clue about her parents idea so she sadly returned to the base and found her class mates getting ready.
She saw Star Sounder giving orders to the other fembots…all of them were looking at her as if she was a freak, and it depressed her more; she sadly walk to the stage and stood there 'till Jazz touched her shoulder: -"It's time honey!-" he said excitedly.

Then he saw her sad optics:-"I know it nanny, is Ratchet here?"- She asked. Without asking anything Jazz hugged her:-"Yeah! He's here. And I want you to show the others what a talented dancer you are, and why your parents and I are so proud of you!"-he pointed out, giving her a grin.

Eriel's optics lit up, and she smiled back: -"I will kick the others in the ass!"-she said, those words seemed to cheer up her dark world, by the time, her class mates were already on the stage, she took her position in the mid part and wait.

In the second line were Megatron, Skywarp and Thundercracker, waiting for their victim, they had a plan to kidnap her and kill her. When the music started Megatron's optics couldn't believe what they were seeing, the same beautiful angel in the lake was dancing in front of him, as beautifully as only an angel can be-"She is your victim"- Skywarp said, but he didn't pay attention to his words.

In the last act, she got a solo, planned by her, it was about an angel who danced for the robot she loved, he was a military and at the end of the story she died. All of them were fascinated by her beauty and the way she danced. The dramatic end caused that all the bots in there stand up and applause her, even the 'evil' decepticons did it. Eriel turned made a reverence, and immediately jump out of the stage and ran to Ratchet:-"How was it huh?"- She asked him. Ratchet hugged her tenderly and whispered: -"you did it great!"-.

Megatron took Skywarp's arm: -"I want to meet her!"- He said decided to do it, Skywarp turned to him:-"But she's Optimus' daughter and besides she's an autobot"-Megatron shook his head:-"I don't mind Sky! Do you believe in love at first sight?"- The young decepticon asked.

Skywarp's optics were wide open and he shook his head:-"This is not possible"-. Megatron made his way to her, forgetting all about his mission and then she turned and saw him, she thought that he was the cutest mech she had ever seen, she tenderly smiled at him, and Megatron smiled back.

He took her hand and kissed it, then he fixed his red optics on hers:-"Angels, tough they fall, they're still beautiful"- her cheeks immediately turned red, it seemed that the whole world disappeared leaving only both of them looking at each other…
