"Hello love." Megatron said as he went over to her and pulled her to him.
"Y...you're alive?" Shadow's optics were widened as she was in shock.
"I wouldn't be standing here if I were still offline."
She gave him an unamused look. "Aft." She replied ::I missed you so so much. She said over their bond::
:: I have missed you as well, my dear: He replied back over their bond and she smiled. "So I heard that I'm going to be a sire." She nodded. "Well then I'm happy to be they're sire."
"Tomorrow is a busy day, now everyone get some recharge. Knockout, Starscream should be in your med bay by now so go attend to him." Megatron ordered.
"Yes Lord Megatron" Everyone walked away from the couple.
"Care to take a small walk around the ship, Lady Shadow?" He asked offering her arm.
"I would love too, Lord Megatron." She smiled and linked her arm with his. They headed down the corridor of the ship.
"So did Knockout specify the gender or how many sparkling's were having?"
"He said were having twins which is very rare nowadays considering not too many femmes carry twins. He has yet to specify the gender."
"Well whatever their gender might be, I'm happy to be their sire."
"That's nice to know" She said, but then stopped and looked at him sternly. "Although if you ever go charging into another space bridge that's about to blow up, I will kick your aft to Cybertron and back." She said glaring at him.
"How would you kick my aft if I'm offline?" He chuckled and kissed her helm.
"I'll find a way to bring you back online and then I'll kick your aft."
"I don't plan on doing that, besides I'm invincible." He wrapped an arm around her.
"No you're not, you were just offlined."
"But I came back online." Shadow rolled her optics. He gave her his usual smirk and pulled her close to his side. As he pulled her close she pursed her lips to the side, but then she leaned against him slightly. As they were walking they saw Soundwave and Frequency, Knockout and Esmeral, Darklite and Breakdown, then Moonlite and Starscream who were all walking to their quarters. "They make such cute couples. Most of them all have the same personalities as their mates. Well Frequency actually speaks in her own voice and talks"
"Soundwave speaks only when necessary, but that's what I like about him. He knows when to speak and when not to speak. Also he is the most loyal mech in my army." Shadow nodded. They stopped on the flight deck of the warship. Megatron held Shadow close to him, he placed a servo on her abdomen. When he did so she relaxed against him. They stood there for a while, looking out at the stars in the night sky. They later made their way to their quarters and recharged for a while.
A month later...
Shadow's abdomen area had gotten bigger since and the sparkling's were bound to be born soon. She finally awoke from recharge and she noticed that Megatron had emerged out of their private wash racks in their quarters. She sat up in the berth and groaned as she rubbed her swollen belly, the sparkling's were growing restless and kept kicking her. Megatron walked over to his mate and laid down next to his mate. He then went to her belly and started to scold the sparkling's.
"You two, stop kicking your carrier." He said sternly to her belly, but obviously the sparkling's kept kicking her and she cringed more. Megatron put a servo on her belly and soothingly started to rub it. After a while the sparkling's stopped kicking her.
"You do realize you can't order them to stop doing something. They won't understand."
"I can try. I will raise them to follow my orders."
"Heh. Good luck with that."
"Now once they're born, I intend to have some alone time with you before we will not be able to."
"Pft~! Who said I want to do that with you."
"Do not deny it, my dear. You know you love it." He said as began to move his servo down her side, tracing around the seams of her interface plate. She gasped softly as he did so.
"Megatron." She growled since she was carrying she was a little more sensitive down there and she would easily be aroused by him. He continued to trace around her interface plate, but then she cringed. "M.m...Megatron."
"Yes, my dear."
Shadow started tremble and she sat up, placing her servos on her stomach. He stopped and started to worry. "Shadow, what's wrong?"
"I...I think the sparkling are ready."
"Frag." He contacted Knockout through the commlink and told him the situation. He got off the berth, picked her up, and hurried to the med bay. He laid her down in the medical berth and Knockout instructed Shadow to push. It took a while for the sparkling's to come out, but with each push Shadow would curse and threaten Megatron that she was going to have his spike removed once it was over. Although he knew that she didn't mean...well he hoped she didn't. Knockout and Breakdown cleaned the sparkling's up and gave them to Shadow.
"Congratulations, your both are officially parents." Knockout told them as he placed the sparkling's in Shadow's arms. "What are you two going to name the cuties?"
"Let's call the mech Galvatron and the femme can be Eclipse."
"Fitting names for my sparkling's." Shadow smiled down at her little ones. "Here love why don't you Eclipse." He nodded and gently took Eclipse from Shadow. Eclipse snuggled against his chest, feeling the warmth radiating from his spark. Then the femmes and their mates came into the med bay.
"Aww, they are so cute." Moonlite said quietly. Starscream was in the med bay as well, scowling at the fact that Megatron now has heirs to inherit the leadership of the Decepticons.
"What did you name them?" Esmeral asked.
"Galvatron and Eclipse."
"Congratulations" Frequency said.
"Thank you."
" 're free to leave the med bay. I will need to see the cuties for a checkup in a week." Knockout told Shadow.
"Alright Knockout." Shadow said as she got up from the medical berth.
"Also no interfacing for six weeks." Megatron narrowed his optics at Knockout.
"And why not?" Knockout cringed as he was receiving a glare from Megatron.
"Some femmes experience discomfort after having sparkling's."
"Can't disobey the doctor's orders." Shadow told her mate with a smirk.
A few months later...
"Eclipse! Galvatron! Stay still." Their sire yelled as the femmeling and the mechling ran around the command center away from their father, Starscream, Breakdown, Frequency, Darklite, Moonlite, Knockout, and Esmeral. They were able to dodge them each time they had tried to grab the two younglings. "For the love of Primus, where is your carrier when you need her." Megatron grumbled. Shadow and Soundwave were out on a mission all day and they had just returned. It was already night. They transformed and landed on the flight deck, they made their way to the command center. As they headed toward the command center a loud clash was heard.
Shadow looked at Soundwave. "What was that?" They hurried into the command center. When they arrived, they saw everyone trying to grab the younglings.
"Galvatron and Eclipse stop running and come here." Shadow said sternly as she crossed her arms. The two younglings stopped running and went to their carrier. They slowly moved towards her and they smiled innocently.
"Don't you two smile innocently at me. I told you and your brother to in your berths and be good for your sire while I was away. Go apologize to everyone." The two younglings bowed their helm and apologized to everyone.
"We're sorry." They said sincerely. Shadow watched her younglings then she looked towards her mate, he looked irritated.
"It's time for the both of you to recharge." They sighed and went off to their quarters.
"Those two are a handful." Breakdown commented.
"But they are cute, we can't be mad at them. They're only younglings." Moonlite said.
"Yeah...devil younglings." Starscream muttered. Shadow glared at Starscream, which caused him to cringe.
"Now that the younglings went to recharge, we all can get some." Esmeral said. Shadow went to check on Galvatron and Eclipse to make sure they actually were recharging. When she saw that they were, she walked back to the command center. She saw that only Megatron was left so she went to him. He noticed her presence, he turned to face her.
"Soundwave informed me that your mission was a success."
"Yes. We've managed to get the necessary intel. You seem upset? Is something wrong?"
"No, I'm fine." She frowned. "I'm going for a flight for a while." He said as he walked out. Shadow sighed, then she made her way to her and the other femme's office. She knew she had to write out her report about her and Soundwave's findings. A few minutes into writing her report, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter." She said blankly and the one who walked in was Solarflare.
"There you are, I thought you could use some energon." Solarflare put a cube down on her desk.
"Thanks Solarflare, but I'm not hungry." Shadow said with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"You're welcome. Are you alright?" He looked at her with concern. To Shadow, Solarflare was a father figure to her ever since Proteus decided to disown her for choosing to side with Megatron over him.
She continued to write out her report. "I'm fine. There's no need to worry about me Solarflare." Solarflare frowned as he set the energon down on her desk.
"Shadow, you know that's a lie. Your tone says it all. What's wrong?"
She stopped and looked up from her report, letting out a sigh. "It's nothing, it's just a silly little thing. I really shouldn't be worried about it." He could tell she didn't want to talk about it.
"Alright" He headed towards the door, but stopped before exiting. "You know that if you need to talk, I'm always here."
She nodded. "I know Solarflare and I promise that if something is bothering me, I'll come and find you." She faked a smile and he walked out. After a few minutes she finished the report and left it on Megatron's desk. Then she made her way to her and Megatron's quarters, once she was there she took a shower and then lay down on the berth. As she laid down on the berth, she took out a holocube with some pictures of her and Megatron. She smiled, looking through the photos, then she looked at the most recent photo of them when the sparkling's were born. After a few minutes of staring at that photo, she put the holocube away, and fell into recharge. An hour later, Megatron has returned from his flight, he walked into their quarters, seeing Shadow on the berth. He sighed, and slowly and carefully he slid onto the berth. Shadow stirred, but she didn't wake up. He then fell into recharge.
The next day….
Galvatron and Eclipse woke up early that morning, they silently made their war to their parent quarters, carrying two energon cubes for their parents. As they were walking down the door, Esmeral and Knockout stopped the two.
"What are you two younglings up to?" Esmeral asked with an optic ridge raised.
"We're going to take this to carrier and sire. Sire looked really mad last night." Eclipse said softly.
"How cute. Be careful." They nodded then walked into their creator's quarters. Slowly they put the two cubes down on the table. They got onto their creator's berth, Galvatron went to wake his carrier up and Eclipse went to wake her sire up. Galvatron gently shook his carrier's arm and Eclipse did the same. Shadow slowly woke up and groggily woke up. Megatron was mumbling something, but Eclipse couldn't make out what he said so she continued to try to wake him up.
"Sire?" She shook his arm once again, still mumbling. Suddenly Megatron jolted up.
"I'll kill you." He snapped as Galvatron cowered and jumped towards his carrier, Shadow jumped, and Eclipse jumped to her carrier and screamed. Knockout, Esmeral, Darklite, Moonlite, and Breakdown ran into their quarters with their weapons drawn. When they barged in they saw Shadow, trying to soothe Galvatron who was breathing heavily and Eclipse was crying. They all lowered their weapons.
"What happened?" Darklite asked.
"Megatron scared them." Megatron looked at the five in his quarters. Shadow was rubbing Galvatron back and rubbing Eclipse's back with her free servo as she held onto her neck tightly. After a while they calmed down. "Galvatron a-and I made you and sire your m-m-morning energon." She sniffled as she looked at her sire. His optics softened towards her so that he wouldn't scare her again. Shadow smiled at them. "That was really sweet of the both of you. Why don't you two go with Moonlite and go with them, okay?" Moonlite took their servos and led the younglings out. "The rest of you leave." They left, Shadow got up, and grabbed the two cubes. She handed one to Megatron, glaring at him, not saying anything. He took the cube from her and she sat down in the chair, drinking her cube. Megatron walked over to her and set his cube down.
"I didn't mean to scare them, Shadow."
"I know, but you shouldn't have just sat there and said nothing. Eclipse and Galvatron are probably scared to death because you did that." She said standing up.
"I should have tried to calm them down, but I was in shock." Shadow rolled her optics then she walked past them. Megatron now rolled his optics.
"Shadow…" He grabbed her by her waist and turned her to face him. Shadow gave him a"-_-"expression on her face. "I'll go apologize to them, you know I didn't mean to scare them."
:: You had better or else I'll have Knockout offline your interfacing unit. :: Shadow threatened over their bond. He shivered slightly.
"You would never do that"
"Try…me." She threatened.
"I know you wouldn't because you love it too much in order to have Knockout do that." He said rubbing his digits along her side. This caused her vents to hitch as she was now heating up. "See even the simplest touches, stimulate you." He smirked then his optics widened as she started to grope his interface plate, making him let out a moan. She leaned in close to him, brushing her lips against his. He suddenly pulled her towards the berth, with her on top him, kissing her. After a few seconds, she pulled away and moved off of him. "Hurry up and drink your Energon then go apologize to our sparkling's." Shadow said, grabbing her Energon and leaving their quarters with a shocked Megatron there.
"Primus, that femme." He groaned. :: I'll get you back, Shadow. :: Shadow huffed and went to find her two younglings.
