Gaia glanced down at the twisted, wrecked body that lay unmoving on the ground. "Nature, I think you killed him."
Nature snorted, her eyes still glowering at the metallic body. She was furious with the absolute nerve of the alien, insulting her careful work. "So? Survival of the fittest. Would you mind getting rid of the body? I don't ever want to see it in one piece ever again."
Gaia smiled at her sister, before the ground rumbled softly, the earth opening to eat up the body. "Don't worry; I'll transport the metal over to where they're mining iron over in Mexico. As for now, I suggest you get rid of the evidence that it was ever here."
Nature regarded the large hole in the corn crops. "I suppose."
Her body melted into the ground, skin flashing velvet green of nearly full grown corn, before the body disappeared and the corn rose. "It isn't as good as when it grows slow motion, the cobs will be a bit undersized, but all in all, it's a good job I think."
Gaia nodded, murmuring, "Well, I do believe that it was nice to relax a little with you Nature, but for now, I think I'll go back to my volcanoes. Either that or have fun coming up with more fossilized remains for those poor scientists to find."
The sisters couldn't exactly part, but their consciousnesses drifted away from each other, as each turned to their own separate, encompassing task.

Unicron moved slowly and ponderously in his course for Gaia, CPU poking at the problem at hand. He knew that he had seriously messed up introducing himself to the two females. Two. Females. One was a sentient planet, like him and Primus, the other was in charge of organic growing.
Unicron sighed in bliss at the remembrance of the furious, beautiful face and the power that crackled in the air. If she were to ever come onto his actual body, she could probably find some way to kill him. Or at least invalidate him. She was something he absolutely must have.
He paused for a few moments, debating the wisest course of the only plan he could actually think of that might just work. At last he sighed, and sent a message off to Primus.
---
Primus regarded the message in half laughter, half consternation. It was short, extremely short. And very much to the point. Of course, if he could just figure out if it was yet another trick of Unicron trying to pull him out of hiding or if it was truly the real thing would remain yet to be seen. He personally was banking on it was another trick.
Of course, it could not be a trick. Frustrated, Primus glowered at the message. "I'm in love." That's it. He couldn't have sent me more information, like who's he in love with or something like that.
He moved the message to the side, and busied himself with his creations. In the course of an orn, more mechs had fallen in love and were trying to figure out how to confess, then the usual rate in the past vorn. And still his CPU turned back to the mysterious message.
At last he caved in, and sent back a reply. :With who?:
---
Unicron smirked. He knew Primus wouldn't be able to resist asking. He just knew it. :With a femme on a sentient planet. She's in charge of nurturing organics.: As he sent off the message, he wished he could see Primus's face.
Until he remembered when slight problem with his falling in love with an organic. He remembered that he had eaten several sentient planets before. Slag, this could be a problem in the future courtship rituals. It could be a very, very big problem.
A breem later Unicron received his reply. :You fell in love with what?:
:I told you! I fell in love with a sentient planets sister! That's why I need your help.:
There was a long moment of silence, over which Unicron waited anxiously for a reply. It took him a few moments to realize that Primus was either laughing his head off, or dropped the conversation in disgust. :Don't you dare laugh at me.: Unicron messaged.
It was a long five breems before Primus finally replied, :You actually are serious, aren't you?:
:Yes, I'm serious! Why wouldn't I be serious? Do you know how serious I am? I will even let her sister Gaia go free and not be eaten that is how serious I am.: He sent off the message, before remembering his earlier dilemma.
:You don't think she'll hold it against me for eating other planets, do you?:
Primus swallowed a laugh at how frantic Unicron had sounded before a cold feeling settled into his stomach. Unicron was supposed to be the harbinger of destruction and death. Primus wasn't sure what he had done to make Unicron chase him, trying to eat him, however, if he got fixated on another planet-
It could turn out very bad for that planet. Primus could transform and fend off Unicron, he seriously doubted that the other planet could. :Unicron, what suddenly made you deicide you were in love?:
Unicron was silent for a moment, before gradually messaging back, :It's hard to explain. After she destroyed the body that I animated, I knew I had to have her. If she ever got on my body, I believe she could completely invalidate me. I really must have that power.:
If Primus could, he'd bang his head upon the wall. :Then you aren't in love with the femme, you're in love with the pow…:
The words broke off as he realized what Unicron had just messaged him. He hurriedly reran through the message, optics caught by 'if she ever got on my body, I believe she could completely invalidate me.'. No, no normal femme could do such a thing. Nor could any normal planet.
:The power and the femme are impossible to separate. I'll take both.: Unicron snarled back. Primus regarded the message. Unicron. Love. The CPU boggled.
:Where is this femme?:
:There aren't any coordinates out here in space. But, about five to eight million years you passed by here. It was just a small little, miserable water ball back then. No life.:
Primus reran his CPU back to the older memory files in his CPU, before freezing. The Allspark was on that planet. Couldn't Unicron feel it? Or, was he so bowled over by this new femme that he didn't care? Both thoughts were surprising. But, they were the only two that worked to any great degree. :If I animate my own body and send it over, would you attempt to destroy it?:
There was a long silence, before at last Unicron finally replied, :No.:
Primus sighed as he reached towards the Allspark, the ark of light that consisted of him giving another machine life leapt out, slamming into a nearby car. A hologram of a human popped up into the car as it drove off. The human didn't notice until someone pointed out, "Simmons, what happened to your car?"
Primus, however, kept to driving along the road. :Where are you going to re-enter the atmosphere?:
:Somewhere nice and quiet. Without a lot of plants. I want to at least say 'Sorry' before she destroys me and I have to reanimate another body.:
Primus asked cautiously, :Do I wish to know where you got the bodies?:
A negative flew over the link, and Primus sighed softly. Unicron waited nervously for Primus to pick out an area for landing before the body began to streak down through the atmosphere.
A/n: Yes, I did a second chapter, thank you both who reviewed, you really inspired me to continue, though I do hope more people will continue to review. It only takes five seconds!
