Chapter 12 Explanations and Arrivals

Hot Shot stared up at her in horror. "What?"

Optimus sighed. "I should have told you sooner, I know, but you never asked about who your father was, so…."

Hot Shot shook his head in disbelief. "How? Why is he my dad?" He demanded. "He's a fragging Decepticon! You're an Autobot!"

"We were in love, but that was an eternity ago." Optimus sighed. "Long before the Decepticons were established."

"How could you ever love HIM?!" Hot Shot snarled. "He's the biggest fragging aftshaft I've ever met!"

"He was different back then." She replied as she sat down on the berth. "He use to be so romantic and loving and…oh he was so many things!" She mused. "He used to have packs of admirers following him, all of them wishing that they could have him. Of course, those who became Autobots would deny it, but, he was considered so striking and handsome." She sighed. "Mech, to see him always startled you when you first saw him. He always towered over everyone, even when he was a sparkling apparently. Then there were his colours; green and purple were almost never seen together and look good, but he made it look so gorgeous."

"Mom!" Hot Shot shouted. "Focus! Why is he my dad?!"

"Huh? Oh, well, he forced me to bond with him." She replied sadly. "He was as cratered as the moon that night." She shuddered.

"What?!" Hot Shot shouted. "Wait until I get my hands on him! I'll make him pay for that!"

Optimus held up her hand. "The damage is already done." She stated plainly. "He's living with the consequence everyday; not having me or you."

Hot Shot stared at his hands. "Why did you tell me now?" He demanded. "Why not let me continue to believe that I had no dad because he was killed in the beginning of the war?!"

Optimus looked away and sighed. "He just found out." She replied.

"That's not…wait…what?"

"He never knew about you either." She stated as she looked back at him.

"He…you didn't tell him that he had a son?" He asked.

Optimus gave him a semi-annoyed look. "Wouldn't that have been an interesting battlefield conversation? "Oh, by the way, we have a kid. Isn't that great? And the best part is you'll never meet him!" That wouldn't have gone over very well." She stated as she shook her head.

"Then how did he find out if you didn't tell him?" Hot Shot asked as he gave his mother a glare.

"When you were injured on the battlefield, the defenses around you spark dropped and he could sense your spark pulsing in tempo with his."

"Oh…slag."

"Yah, you think?"

"Would he have captured me if you hadn't have been there?"

"I honestly don't know."

"How could you not know? He was your mate!"

"Technically, he still is. I haven't mated with Jetfire…or rather bonded with him."

"Eww. Way too much info." He commented with a grimace.

Optimus laughed as the Minicon alarm went off. "Well, back to business as usual." She stated as she helped Hot Shot to his feet. "Come on; let's go get that Minicon."

Hot Shot sighed as he looked at the others. He had been sent back to the base earlier than the others because he had sustained heavy damage, again. "So, Megatron got the last Minicon needed for the Skyboom Shield?"

"Unfortunately." Smokescreen replied.

"It's my fault." Blur sighed. "If I hadn't shot at it, it wouldn't have run."

Optimus raised her hand to silence him. "It's noble of you to take the blame, but we have other things to worry about." She stated. "With Megatron in possession of the Skyboom Shield and the Starsabre sword, we are in very big trouble."

Everyone nodded; with the Starsabre sword, Megatron had been almost impossible to stop. Now that he had the only thing that could counteract the power of the Starsabre, they were, in short, doomed. "Don't worry Optimus!" Hot Shot shouted as he punched the air. "We'll get those Minicons back! And save the others too!"

Optimus nodded. "Go get some rest everyone." She stated, dismissing them. "We're going to need it." She added after everyone left her alone in the control room.

"You have no idea." Megatron chuckled.

Optimus jumped and spun around. She wanted to scream on reflex when she found herself facing the entire Decepticon army. She felt herself freeze as terror settled in her fuel tank and backed up. "How?" She whispered.

"How did we get in here?" Megatron sneered. "It would appear that your security isn't as good as it should be. It was easy to hack into the coding and get admission."

She backed up against the main console as the Decepticons pressed forward, cutting off any chance of retreat. She ran her left hand behind her across the keys, searching for the "intruder" button. A strange Seeker with a pointed head and gun-like fingers stepped towards her, his head rising and falling as he examined her. There was a glint in his optics similar to a smirk, so she guessed he was smirking beneath his face mask.

"Aren't we a pair?" He asked. Optimus cringed; his voice had a whiny tone to it.

She heard Starscream laugh before he elbowed the other Seeker aside. "Get real, Thrust. What would Prime see in you?" He sneered.

"Whole Pit of a lot more than what she would see in you!" Thrust snapped.

Optimus found the button as Starscream went to retort with some cocky response and pressed it. The alarm blared, raking against everyone's audios. Shouts went up and footsteps started racing down the hallway. While the other Decepticons started panicking, Megatron rounded on her. He snarled slightly as he started moving towards her. She brought her wrist cannon on her right arm up and started taking aim on his chest. A laser blast rendered her arm useless and she screamed as the nerves exploded in pain.

"Ah, ah, ah." Thrust scolded. "That's no way to treat your new leader. Your title won't mean anything; you are Decepticon property now, my pretty little femme."

At her incredulous look, Megatron laughed. "Better add "personal toy to the Decepticon Leader" to that title of yours Prime." He stated with a flash of his red optics, making her spark flutter in her chest.

"What? B-b-but sire!" Thrust whined. "I already…."

Megatron rounded on the conehead, and snarled. "I am leader, Thrust, I get first pick of anything captured, including enemy femmes."

Thrust squeaked and nodded quickly, not wanting to argue with the giant. Megatron turned back to Optimus and grinned as he walked forward and grabbed her only functioning arm. He bared his fangs in a smile as she hissed in disgust and tried to pull her arm back. His grip tightened as he pulled her closer to him. He turned his head back towards the door as it burst open and the rest of the Autobot army charged in. Hot Shot's face twisted in rage as Megatron laughed and pulled her closer still. He grabbed her chin and forced it up to look at him before he leant in and licked her antenna, earning a roar of hatred from the Autobots and a shriek of disgust from her.

"Signora Autobots." Megatron laughed as the warp sequence was activated and they were teleported out of the base and back to the Decepticon base. The last thing she saw was Hot Shot reaching for her, a desperate look in his optics.

Megatron chuckled as he shoved Optimus towards Cyclonus and Demolisher. The grabbed her arms and twisted them painfully behind her back, causing her to cry out in pain. She struggled against them until Cyclonus gave her damaged arm a twist and sent her body into painful spasms. The other Decepticon's laughed at her as her screams echoed around them.

"Take her to the holding cells." Megatron ordered. "I'll be down shortly to…persuade her to our side." He added with a grin, earning more laughs from the Decepticons.

She was dragged backwards down the hallway, crying out as her arms were getting wrenched out of their sockets. Cyclonus cackled insanely as they reached the holding cells and he reached back and patted her head. After a verbal squabble over where they were throwing her, they entered a cell near the back of the room. She was slammed against the wall as the two mechs chained her arms up above her head. When they released their hold on her, she slumped to the ground, disoriented and winded from the rough treatment. She heard them talking to one another and laughing.

"Watch." Cyclonus laughed somewhere above her.

Optimus screamed as the copter's fingers dug into the plating on her shoulder and tore the wires out of place. His hand trailed down her chest and she shrieked in the indignity of what he was doing. His tongue licked her collar before his hand moved to the main fuel line in her neck and he began to caresses it. "Aw, you like that, don't you Prime?" The copter laughed. He leant in and licked her face mask. "How about I let you decide which bots better? I'll give you a test run here, then you can compare me to the Boss once he's done with you." He cackled.

"Did I give you permission to torture the captive?" Megatron's voice growled.

Cyclonus yipped in fear as he leapt away from her. "I just thought…." He whimpered.

"Both of you, OUT!" Megatron snarled. Demolisher and Cyclonus squeaked and took off running. When both of them had left, he turned back to her. "My apologies, Oriona." He murmured. "I truly am sorry that you had to go through that."

"Like the Pit you are!" She snarled. "You!"

"Enough." Megatron stated softly and she fell silent for some reason beyond her understanding.

He smiled softly as he knelt down in front of her, bringing her body close to him without putting too much strain on the chains. His hand ran over her face before settling on the clasp of her face mask. He quickly disconnected both clasps and removed the face mask. Optimus gulped before his lips were pressed against hers, and she felt herself seize up for a moment before relaxing into his body with a soft moan. She watched with only half awareness as Megatron's hand started closing around her face mask. With a yelp, she pulled away.

"No! Don't…."

Crunch

"Break it." She sighed as Megatron tossed her demolished face mask away.

Megatron chuckled softly before he returned to kissing her. "Sorry, my love, but I don't like that face mask. I don't like anything that hides you from me." He purred as he nuzzled his face into the crook of her neck and nibbled on the lesser fuel lines.

Optimus tried to growl at him but it turned into a purr before she could stop it. Megatron purred in return as his hand started trailing down her body and started working on the clasps in her armor. She whimpered and shook her head in desperation but Megatron silenced her quickly with a kiss.

"Megatron…please…don't." She managed to gasp out in between kisses.

Megatron stopped and looked down at her. "Why?" He asked softly.

Optimus shook her head. "Not…not when I'm nothing more than a play thing." She replied as she tried to ease herself out of Megatron's embrace. "I want to be able to move around…not be chained up like some…pet."

Megatron pulled her back and smiled. "The chains make it interesting." He purred. At her insulted look he chuckled again before kissing her again.

"Why don't you get your filthy mouth off of her?" A cocky voice demanded.

Megatron growled and started to turn around. A blur of white and red flashed by before he was tossed to the other side of the holding cell. Megatron gave a grunt of pain before going temporarily offline. Optimus looked up and her golden optics widened in shock. The towering white and red shuttle's optics shone happily down at her as he knelt down in front of her and broke the brittle metal off of her wrists. She collapsed against the shuttle's chest and felt joyful tears leak down her face as he stood up. She looked up into his bright yellow optics and smiled as he took off his face mask and kissed her.

"Jetfire."

Author's note: Enter the Jetfire! Whoo! Go shuttle boy! Save her from some horrible fate! You can bet some love scenes between these two are coming up, and some fun love triangle problems will arise! Insert overexcited fangirl sqeal here…geez, I'm not even a fan of Optimus and I'm all giggly! Anyways, please leave me a review on your opinion, but if you don't like it, put it down maturely please and thank you. Thank you!
