Please Warm My Heart
Disclaimer: I don't own Transformers: Energon (Super Link). Never have and never will. Only the respective company does. Kicker x Misha pairing. Read & Review and please, no flames!
It was near past midnight at Autobot headquarters down at Ocean City and all of the Autobots and humans have settled in after a very hard day's work of rebuilding the Energon Tower, since it was previously destroyed by Megatron and his Decepticon army.
As for the rest of the planets such as Plain City, Jungle City and Blizzard City, they too have Energon Towers.
However, there is one individual that can't get a goodnight sleep by tossing and turning on the pillow. That person is the brilliant Energon scientist, Misha Miramond. Ever since the young long dark-brown haired woman had befriended both the Autobots and the Jones family, she has considered them her family and friends. But underneath her beautiful personality lies a horrifying truth that she never told anyone; not even her boyfriend, Kicker Jones.
Back when she was just a child and long before the Energon wars with Unicron had commenced, she had a very strong relationship with her parents, Pierre and Ollie Miramond. Sadly, they've been deceased since childhood and developed a fear of loneliness. Despite being very close to the Jones family, her heart remained shallow due to her strained relationship with Kicker regarding her occupation as an Energon scientist.
Moving into the Present timeline, Misha was sweating profusely and was tossing and turning on the pillow. That's when her nightmare begins:
(Misha's Nightmare Starts)
When she awoke, there was nothing there but pitch black and no matter where she turned to, she's left all alone with no one to protect her from Megatron and the Decepticons. By placing her hands on her chest to where her heart is, she felt it. It kept skipping many beats and begins to feel very scared.
She starts calling out to anyone that can hear her.
"Hello? Is anyone there? Optimus? Ironhide? Hot Shot? Alexis? Sally? Dr. Jones? K-Kicker..." Her eyes were widened in shock and horror after hearing no response from anybody, while her forehead starts sweating bullets.
During this, she heard a footstep and as she turned around, she felt very relieved to see Kicker standing in the distance with his hands in his pockets and not wearing his Energon battle suit. Tears of joy filled up her light blue eyes. "Kicker! Thank goodness!" As she ran up to him by throwing her arms, she went right through him and fell flat on her pretty face. "Huh? What gives?"
A look of disbelief was shown on Kicker's face and starts walking away from her.
"Kicker, wait! Don't leave me! KICKER!"
Unfortunately, he didn't hear her pleas and faded away.
"Kicker..."
Suddenly, a loud and sickening roar startled her from behind.
Misha gasped upon recognizing that familiar voice and her body froze like ice. By gulping her throat down, she slowly turned her head around to see the gigantic Unicron towering over her. She felt very horrified to see Cybertron's terrifying menace glaring at her.
Once the chaos bringer sees its prey, its eyes glowed menacingly and begins hunting her down.
She starts running away in fear but not for very long as she gets swooped in by the Terrorcons and latched onto her shoulders. "No! Put me down!"
Much to her dismay, it only obeyed Unicron and carries her above his head.
She noticed a familiar figure from Unicron's left hand and much to her shock, it was Kicker in his battle armour suit. However, he wasn't responding and as Unicron tosses him onto the pavement, it let out a loud roar and fired a large beam from its massive chest. As a result, it disintegrated Kicker's body completely.
"NO!" yelled Misha in anguish.
As soon as Unicron destroyed his latest victim, he opened up his large mouth and by releasing its huge fingertips, Misha falls right inside while she screamed loudly and Unicron gulped down its throat.
(Misha's Nightmare Begins)
Then, with a quick flash of her eyes and gasping in fear, she stood up and screamed very loudly all across the Autobot base.
Around the same time, it alerted most of the Autobots that were in stasis lock and even the Jones family as they immediate exited from their chambers.
"What was that scream?" thought Ironhide in a panic.
"That must've been Misha. I wonder, what happened?" added Hot Shot.
While the Autobot duo find Optimus about the recent occurance, back on over at Misha's room, she kept crying hard after experiencing a very disturbing nightmare by burying her face with her hands.
She heard some knocks on the door and as she got out of bed, the sliding doors swung open to see Kicker, Sally, Brian and Miranda standing outside of her dorm.
"Misha? What's wrong?"
"We heard you screaming all over the Autobot base."
"What happened?"
"It almost after midnight. You didn't sleep well?"
Misha sniffed and hung her head down. "N-No, I-I didn't." She continued, while she kept on crying. "I-I saw Unicron...kill Kicker and then, it swallowed me whole!"
"What?!" cried the entire Jones family in unison.
Seeing Misha feeling very distraught after waking up from an awful dream, Dr. Jones notices some Autobots waking up from their stasis locks. He turns to his son, daughter and wife. "I'll let Optimus and the others know what happened."
As Miranda and Sally comfort Misha, Kicker felt very concerned for his girlfriend in the middle of the evening. "I've never seen her so miserable."
"Now, calm down, Misha and take a few deep breaths" informed Miranda.
The young Energon scientist took her advice and does so without fail.
Sally noticed a Kleenex box on the cabinet and brought it over to her. "Here, Misha. This will help."
With a slight nod, Misha grabbed the tissue from the Kleenex box and blew her nose. Regardless of Sally and Miranda's assistance, she still felt very sad and tears of pain were still formed in her light blue eyes. "Thank you."
Meanwhile, Dr. Jones told Optimus, Hot Shot and Ironhide about what led them to wake up so sudden.
"I apologize, Optimus but Misha just had a really bad dream."
The leader of the Autobots confirmed his theory. "I see. Did she told you what it was?"
Dr. Jones answered by scratching his head. "She said that Unicron killed my son and then, he swallowed her. That's it."
"Say, what?! Unicron killed Kicker and ate Misha? Talk about having a midnight snack" says Ironhide.
Hot Shot didn't take it lightly with his response and elbowed him in the arms. "Ironhide! She probably didn't get enough sleep."
"She's already being taken care of by my son, wife and daughter. I hope she'll be okay" told Dr. Jones.
Optimus nodded. "I'm most certain that she will."
Back inside Misha's dorm, she has felt a little better but not by much. Sally and Miranda sat next to her on the right, while Kicker sat on the left.
"So, you woke up after getting eaten alive by Unicron?"
"How awful. It's a good thing that was a just bad nightmare."
She responded sadly. "I know. But, there's more."
"What do you mean, Misha?" wondered Kicker with concern by placing his hand on her shoulder.
When she felt it, she turned to him and as she peered into his light brown eyes, tears reappeared in her eyes and without warning, she nestled her head onto his chest. "Kicker!" That quickly, she cried again as more tears kept trickling down on her cheeks.
A slight hint of redness was shown on Kicker's cheeks. "H-Hey, Misha! What's gotten into you?"
Sally and Miranda exchanged looks at each other and soon realized that Misha is deeply worried about him.
"Looks like she was thinking about you."
"Maybe, that's why she's having an emotional breakdown."
Kicker countered. "S-Seriously?"
Right after that, Misha stopped crying and replied back. "It's...It's more than that." She lifted her head up and as she glanced at his handsome face, she revealed her reason behind her recent nightmare. "I...I was all alone in the dark and there was nobody to protect me. I saw you in the distance but you didn't answer me and went right through you. That's when Unicron showed up and swallowed me whole." She again buried her face with her hands. "I hate being alone! I can't stand it!"
That made Kicker felt very bewildered of Misha's depressed state and why she woke everyone up in the evening. "M-Misha."
"I get it. You're afraid of being deserted" explained Miranda to her.
"Y-Yes" says Misha by nodding her head slightly and still covering her pretty face.
Now that they fully understood Misha's problems, Kicker sighed and stood up from her bed. "Well, that makes sense. Let's get back to bed." But before he could head back, he felt his hand being clutched by Misha. "Now what?" He gasped in surprise to see Misha's saddened and worried complexion glaring back at him. He blinked his eyes. "Misha?"
"K-Kicker." A hint of redness was shown on her cheeks, while making a startling request. "C-Could you...sleep with me tonight?"
"Huh?!" cried Kicker and he too blushed. "Wh-What for?"
Sally sneered. "Perhaps, she wanted to do some deep exploration with you?" she raised her eyebrows.
Annoyed with her remark, Miranda slapped across the back of her head. "Sally! That's not a nice thing to say."
"But, Mom. It was just a joke."
Miranda responded by shaking her head. "No, it wasn't. I understand why Misha is feeling very upset. She can't stand to lose our son and all of us." She turns to Kicker with a warm smile. "Go ahead, son. Keep her company. It will help her sleep better."
Kicker smiled back. "Okay, Mom."
With that, both Sally and Miranda join up with Brian back inside their dorms and resume their rest.
Only Kicker and Misha remain inside her room.
"You can relax now, Misha. I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere."
"I'm so glad."
He takes her by the hand and climbed first into her bed before Misha bed. He pulls the covers of the blankets over both of their bodies. Misha moved closer to Kicker and cuddled next to his chest. A bright smile loomed over her and threw her arms around his lower back softly.
Kicker felt it and threw his arms around her waist.
As soon as they locked their eyes, Kicker leaned in closer and pressed his lips against Misha's lips. Upon feeling his tongue dancing inside, she let out a small moan.
After breaking up the kiss, Misha felt very happy and giggled at him. "Thank you, Kicker."
"Y-You're welcome, Misha. Anything else?"
"Just this." By cupping his face with her hands, she laid out her confession to him. "I love you."
"I love you too, Misha."
Similar to earlier before, they kissed again and both moaned in pure ecstasy.
Afterwards, she rested her head onto Kicker's chest and felt very comfortable and safe with her lover at her side. For the rest of evening, she no longer had anymore nightmares relating to Unicron pursuing her and Kicker gone from her life. As long as Kicker is here to protect and comfort her, the weight of her shoulders was removed and is looking to a bright future with her man.
