A/N: Sorry took so long. Had a busy month and all that with school. Never thought that things would be so hard at times. Plus everyone seems to give me a hard time. This chapter was inspired by the song Forgiven by Skillet. You should listen to it. It fits so well with this chapter. Ah yes, Elita is gonna be out of character and mean.
PrimesSPARROWforever: Alright. Hope you enjoy what happiness you get in the future. I know things are getting rough.
Optimus' girl (guest): I have more plans for those two. I just love brotherly relationships between the two.
Guest: I do do requests. Uh... I am working on a few right now but I can get it up. It'll be one of the chapters in the story The best there is. That's where I put up requested stories most the time. I would have to rate it M for what you request, but it won't have much graphic stuff. I can do most of it and mention the rest. But I can get it done in a week or so if I get things done the way I want them to. I'm gonna assume this will take place in G1.

"You know what to do my creation," Quintessa purred. "I want you to as you're told."
"Of course mistress."

Optimus stared at Anna as she slept on his chest. She had worn herself out with her weeping. Megatron hadn't been there for his wakening and so he had yet to talk to him. The Prime set the human down and sought out his brother. He found him staring up at the night sky.
"Brother, why are you out here?" Optimus asked.
"Prime? You're alive? But how?" Megatron asked.
"Primus had the Knights send me to him while my body was fixed," Optimus quickly explained, sitting next to the taller mech. "I would of come earlier, but Anna needed me."
"She's a fine woman for you brother," Megatron nodded. "You are lucky to have her and vice versa."
"Indeed. She reminds me of Elita at times," Optimus sighed. He still loved and missed Elita-One dearly. "I love her sassy attitude and the way she moves. I just wish I could bond with her."
"There's always that ceremony that humans call a wedding," Megatron suggested. "It would be one way of being together for eternity."
"Marriage? I don't know. It could work for us. I should propose to her," Optimus said, smiling at the simple fact of the human custom. "I shall wait until the time is right."
~~~few days later
"Are you positive?" Optimus asked, spark racing wildly. "Is it truly her?"
"I'm sure Prime. There's no mistaking it. That femme in there is Elita-One. I don't know how but she's here and alive. She even has the mark on her from that accident on Cybertron," said Ratchet.
"Who? I heard that there was a new bot," said Anna, leaning against Optimus' leg.
"Elita-One. She was Prime's sparkmate before she disappeared and was pronounced dead," Ratchet explained. "She landed not too long ago."
"Sparkmate? Isn't that the same as a wife or husband?" Anna asked.
"Yes it is," said Ratchet.
"I don't know what to do. I still love Elita, but I love you Anna," Optimus muttered.
"Well... she had you first. You can be with her," said Anna, hiding the fact that she was crumbling on the inside. "You two deserve to be together."
"Are you sure?" asked Optimus.
"Of course," Anna confirmed. "I'll see you around. I have a few things I need to get done."
Anna bounded off towards the rec room. Optimus sighed silently and left to go see his mate. Elita was waiting for Ratchet to return so that he could finish checking up on her. The pink femme squealed and hugged her long lost mate. Optimus returned the hug, ignoring the feeling in his spark of emptiness.
"Oh Optimus I missed you so much," Elita squeaked.
"I missed you as well Elita," Optimus rumbled. "You still look the same since you disappeared."
"I've been wandering space looking for you. Shockwave kidnapped me," said Elita. "I got your message and came straight here."
~~~000
"What's wrong Anna?" Megatron asked the sad human.
"It's Optimus. This Elita girl landed here and Optimus is with her. I want them to be happy, but I also want to be with Optimus. I told him to go to her since she had him first," Anna grumbled, jealous of this new femme. "It's not fair! I love Optimus so much! Then she comes back and ruins it all!"
"Elita-One is here? That's not possible," Megatron said in alarm. "I watched her perish myself. Her spark case was empty."
"Well she's here now," Anna snarled sarcastically. "Stupid fate."
"You may come with me if you like. Optimus will be busy with Elita if she truly returned from the dead. It's most likely this is a trap," Megatron said, taking the human with him outside. "We will keep an optic on him, make sure nothing happens."
~~~000
"Elita, careful," Optimus whimpered, Elita's fingers digging painfully into his shoulders.
"Don't want to. It's been far too long for the both of us," Elita whispered in his audio, nipping harshly at it and licking it.
Optimus shuddered in the pain. His most sensitive hot spots being abused for her joy. He had tried countless times to ignore it, but it was difficult. The Prime forced himself to believe that it was just because his body was getting used to such treatments again. Elita clawed at his chest, leaving scratches all in the smooth paint. She bit at his neck, marking it and denting. The femme smirked evilly in her mind, moaning as she took control.
"Stay on the berth," Elita ordered, patting his face. "I'll be back."
Optimus recovered from the assault on his body. He stared up at the ceiling, trying to distract himself from Anna. The human was devastated, but hid it well. Only her eyes showed what she truly felt. Elita returned with stasis cuffs, quickly pinning her mate to the berth. She wouldn't allow the Prime to get away.
"Elita, loosen the cuffs please," Optimus requested.
"Nope. You're mine now Optimus. I'm in charge here."
~~~000
"Optimus seems sad," Ironhide pointed out to Ratchet. "What's got him like that?"
"Elita is back. Anna told Optimus to go with her. Both are suffering from not being with the other. Elita is different. I saw it in her optics. The way she looked at Optimus with hunger and pride," Ratchet explained, shuddering in disgust. "Something isn't right here. Sadly, there's nothing we can do about it. Optimus has made his choice and gone with Elita."
"I'll talk to him when I see him again. I'm going to find out if Elita is real or not. I don't want Optimus hurt," Ironhide promised. "Come, you need rest. You've been working all day."
Ratchet nodded tiredly, just wanting to sleep. The feeling in his spark didn't allow him to sleep peacefully.
~~~000
Megatron saw Optimus walking down the halls, wincing painfully every now and then. He became worried and stopped the smaller mech, noticing the pain gasp. The ex-warlord stared at the markings and painful scratches and dents in his brother's frame. Anger boiled in his spark.
"Optimus what happened?" Megatron demanded. Optimus stayed silent, optics moving to the ground. "Tell me who did this to you."
"Elita did. We went to my berth to renew our bond. She got... abusive, even when I told her to stop," Optimus quietly admitted. "I kept telling myself that it was just because it's been so long that it hurt. I do not blame Elita for what she did."
"Optimus... please don't let her do this," Megatron begged. "Stay away from Elita."
"I'm not staying away from her. She is my mate," Optimus suddenly growled, getting away from his brother.
"Optimus listen to me! Elita is dead! I watched her die myself!" Megatron shouted after his brother. His reasoning went ignored. "Optimus you fool. Why don't you just listen to me?"
Optimus continued to walk, heading outside. He ignored all the looks towards him, not wanting to explain anything. He knew what Elita did was wrong, but he couldn't help but ignore that fact. It was his decision to stay with the femme. Ironhide came up to his friend, standing next to the taller mech.
"Prime, did Elita do this to you?" Ironhide asked.
"Yes she did. I don't think she meant to do it though," Optimus said.
"Something's wrong with that femme. I can feel it in my spark," Ironhide said, glancing up at his young friend. "Be careful Prime. If this continues, then come get me."
"Duly noted old friend," Optimus agreed.
~~~000
Indeed the abuse continued. It didn't stop, always happening every chance the femme got. Optimus did nothing to stop it, still believing that it was natural. The other members of NEST noticed as well and became worried. Anna had stayed her distance, not wanting to interfere with Optimus' life. She did have a nice talk with Elita.
"What are you doing to him?" Anna had asked.
"Nothing that concerns you human," Elita sneered. "What we do is not of any concern to you or the team."
"It is my concern when I can see he's hurting," Anna countered.
"No really?" Elita asked sarcastically. "I haven't noticed that."
"You're doing this on purpose aren't you?" Anna realized.
"You got it sweety. Now stay out of my way and Optimus won't suffer," Elita lied, taking her leave.
Anna knew what she had to do. She left to go find Megatron. He was the only one that could deal with the crazed femme. She found him cleaning his gun, making sure it worked well.
"Megatron I need your help," Anna said. "Elita is abusing Optimus on purpose. Optimus doesn't see that. I can tell that he is hurting badly."
"I know. I'm killing that femme and making sure she stays dead," Megatron smirked. "Don't worry Anna. Optimus will be safe once I dispose of her."
Megatron went on his hunt, ready to end the abusive relationship. Optimus deserves someone better that the devil. The femme cursed when the larger grabbed her and dragged her outside. Optimus saw his brother with his femme and followed.
"Brother, what are you doing? Release her now," Optimus ordered.
"No way brother. I can't allow this to continue. She is abusing you and you can't see passed that. I'm getting rid of a problem," Megatron snarled, pressing his gun into her helm. "You can't stop me. I'm doing this for your own health."
"What he says is right. You're being abused Optimus. I can see the signs," Ratchet agreed. "Megatron do it."
"You're right. I've been foolish and ignored the signs," Optimus said in defeat. "I truly believed that Elita wasn't hurting me."
Elita screamed and thrashed, attempting to get loose. Megatron tightened his grip before killing the femme in one shot. He threw the body away before hugging his brother close to him.
"You're safe now. She can't hurt you anymore," Megatron reassured.
"Thank you," Optimus nodded. "Where's Anna?"
"She's in her room," Mirage answered.
Optimus swiftly went to find the one his spark truly wanted. The human woman sat on her bed, knees pulled to her chest, chin resting on top of them. Optimus activated his holoform and hugged her close. The human snuggled into the warm chest of the holoform.
"I'm so sorry Anna. I should of stop her. You are the only one my spark wants," Optimus apologized. "Please forgive me."
"I already have," Anna whispered, kissing the metal lips near her. "I love you Optimus Prime."
"And I you, Anna Carter," Optimus whispered back, returning the kiss. "Now and forever."
