I know, a late update, again, but I've had no inspiration at all to write. However, I've had a request to do more of the nightmares Destiny has had in a previous chapter, so I wrote a chapter about that. I'll give you a warning now, if you didn't like the small nightmare, you're definitely not going to like this. (And it won't change anything in the next chapters, so don't worry, you don't have to read to be able to follow.)
I thought it was a bit unfair, Optimus having an entire new look. I had to find his weak spots all over again… Not. Fair. It had been a few hours until I had discovered one, just one. Of course, he still knew mine, so it hadn't been a fair 'fight'. He was recharging and I was in his strong arms again, only something felt different. Strange. I would have thought it was the new chassis, but I knew better. I had trouble sleeping, having nightmares. Not every night, but every time I had seen Megatron. Something about him just freaked me out. And since those few weeks on the warship, I hadn't been exactly the same. Of course, Optimus had been the only one who noticed. He tried to talk to me about it, and I had told him the truth. Kind of. He knew it were nightmares troubling me, just not what kind of nightmares. And when he wanted to ask me to tell him more, I had always said the same thing: "Just leave it. It's okay, they're just nightmares. They'll stop eventually." He didn't buy it, but it was enough to get him off my back. My stream of thoughts and fears faded, as my eyes started to feel heavier and only a few moments later I fell asleep.
There was nothing but darkness. A part of me knew it was a dream, but I didn't fully realise it. I looked around, but I couldn't see anything. A figure stepped out of the shadows, but it wasn't who I expected it to be. Instead of the dark faceplate of Megatron, the loving one of Optimus was there.
"Optimus, thank Primus" I said, and I stepped towards him. But with every step I took, he slipped further away. Then the dangerously familiar chills ran up my spine. I turned around, and on my other side was Megatron. I carefully stepped back as I saw him, and he grinned dangerously. I turned my head towards Optimus, whose optics were fixated on me as he tried to say something. He reached out for me, but right as we were about to touch each other, a purple flash blinded us for a second, and the next thing I saw was him on his knees, with his hand on his chest. An evil, dark laugh sounded through my mind as the darkness around Optimus started to consume him until there was nothing left. I cried out for him, but no sounds were heard.
"Did you really think you could escape me, Destiny?" Megatron said with a grin. He placed his sharp digit under my chin and forced me to look at him. "He was never able to protect you from me, and he never will be." He got close, way too close to be comfortable, and he didn't let go of my face. My limbs felt like they were strapped to my body, and it took me all of the strength in me to push him away. The grin turned into an angry frown, and he slammed me to the side with the back of his servo. I slammed into a wall, which I hadn't known was there, and before I could get up he was standing over me again. He took both my wrists with one servo and held them over my head, lifting me against the wall.
"Let me go" I managed to say, but he only grinned at my words.
"There is nowhere to go, Destiny" he quietly said in my ear. I wanted to yell at him but his other servo covered my mouth, making it harder for me to breathe. I couldn't speak anymore, the words just didn't come out. I felt his head lowering to my neck until I could feel the cold, metal lips against my skin. He went from my upper neck to my shoulder, kissing, licking, biting. I started to feel my eyes tingle, forming tears. 'No, don't cry. Don't you dear to cry!' I said to myself. But I couldn't help it. A single tear ran down my face, and scrap, he noticed.
"Shhh…" he whispered. "Don't cry…" his lips went from my neck to my cheek, kissing away the tear. The corner of his mouth was awfully close to mine, and he didn't move away. On the contrary. He lowered his servo around my mouth and pressed his lips against mine, forceful, hateful, in every way he was.
"Open your mouth" he said as he pulled back. I turned my head to the side as a refusal, but he clearly didn't approve that. He punched me in my stomach making me gasp, and he forced his lips on mine again. He entered my mouth even if I didn't want him to. If the kiss came from anyone else it would have been one of the best kisses I've ever had, but the fact that it came from him made me feel nauseous. His servo went through my hair and grabbed the back of my head, pulling me closer (if that were even possible). He finally let go, biting my lip with his sharp dental plates. When I closed my mouth again I tasted blood in my mouth. My lip was bleeding. Scrap. A devilish grin appeared on his face again.
"So weak" he mocked. "So easy to make you bleed…" his metal tongue licked away the small drops of blood and he moaned heavily.
"P- Please stop…" I muttered. An evil laugh vibrated through my bones.
"Foolish little girl… Do you really expect some muttering is going to stop this? You are mine, and that is something you can't deny."
A sudden rage razed through my body and I hissed: "I am no-ones, but Optimus Prime's, and that is something you can't deny."
"Well… Not yet…" he said, and he threw me on the floor. He walked towards me, threatening, and his purple optics flashed in raw hunger.
I crawled backwards a bit until I hit a corner. Fear filled me as the horrifying thoughts of what he was going to do to me razed through my head. He was standing right in front of me, but suddenly, everything changed. The dark, hollow shadows disappeared and a blue light slightly lit the space. Things around me started to fall apart, piece by piece, until Megatron was gone as well. There was nothing but the blue light, and then I fell in a black hole.
I woke up with a shock, breathing heavily and sweat drops on my forehead. Optimus' blue optics stared at me in concern as he said: "It's getting worse." He looked at me, wondering, and continued. "You woke me. I woke up because of fear. Your fear. Destiny, you were afraid for your life." His optics begged me to tell him everything, and suddenly that was all that I wanted. To tell him everything. But what would he think of me? He took my hand and placed a soft, small kiss against it as he said: "You can tell me anything. You know I will only help you." And he was right, I did know that. So I told him.
"I've been having nightmares about Megatron." I spilled out. Okay, no turning back now. "It started as just a little nightmare. But it got worse. He started to claim me as his own, trying to take me. This time, he almost did. I wanted to yell, fight, struggle, but I couldn't do anything. Optimus, I'm so afraid…" I said, and I buried my head against his neck. He was definitely taken aback by my words, I could feel that, but he went through my hair trying to comfort me nevertheless.
"We'll solve this… Together, we'll make the nightmares stop" he said as he planted a sweet kiss upon my head.
"I know" I said. "Just never let me go."
"Promise."
