The ‘bots were in a bittersweet position when they returned. The soldiers honored their fallen as their families were informed. Jadefire went to great them, but sensed something was wrong right away when she saw the others hadn’t transformed. She held back, watching an unfamiliar human stroll in as if he owned the place. ‘Hide? What’s going on? Something Demolisher said before Prime shot his face off isn’t sitting right. Also, we seem to have a… guest. Stay with Ratchet until I come get you. You’re mine tonight. She nodded to no one in particular, hearing Major Lennox introducing Optimus to Admiral Morshower. Out of curiosity, she hung back for a minute, listening to Optimus’ report. It was faint in his voice, but he was unnerved, and the recording of Demolisher’s last words sent shivers down her backstrut. She left only when the newcomer interrupted, immediately proving himself to be an idiot absorbed in his power. Ratchet stopped typing as she entered the medical bay, arching a brow. “I gave you the day off for a reason, you know.” “Yeah, I’m aware. Some government suit is out there mouthing off to Optimus. I can’t stand some of those guys.” Ratchet smiled. “It isn’t just humans that are absorbed in their power. There were plenty of our own who were similar.” “Yeah, but at least ours didn’t need stairs to get in our faces. Can’t imagine what this guy could be thinking.” “It’s not hard to imagine. They know our side won’t kill or harm humans outright, so there are no harmful repercussions. They also have the right to take away our refuge here on Earth. In that, they believe they have the upper hand.” Jadefire tried to answer, but the doors opened once more, allowing Ironhide to storm in. “That fragging fleshling dares to mock us, dares to ask us to leave!” Jadefire stood up quickly. “What? He can’t—“ “Apparently he can. Their president is considering severing our agreement due to some irrational theory. That the Decepticons are hunting us.” “That’s crazy. Why would they think that?” “They are running out of things to blame,” Ratchet theorized. “Question is, what are the ‘cons even after?” Jadefire mumbled. Ironhide shook his head. “We don’t know. And since we don’t know, I bet that’s why their government thinks we’re hiding things apart from the designs of our weapons.” “They’d do more harm than good.” “Exactly. But there’s something else that’s worrying me.” “What else is there?” “That was live broadcast to the admiral. There’s nothing stopping anyone from hacking the information off the satellite they used. That idiot Galloway gave away both the location of Megatron’s body and the last shard of the Allspark.” Jadefire’s jaw dropped. “Things aren’t going to be peaceful for awhile, I’m assuming…” Ratchet sighed. “Not that it was very peaceful right now.” “No. Might get a bit dangerous from here on out.” “You’ll be getting called out a lot more now,” Jadefire said softly. “Yeah, won’t be here a lot.” The doors opened again, allowing Optimus to enter. “Finally shook him?” “Not entirely,” he said, obviously on the verge of reaching critical levels of exhaustion. “We need to leave again. Soon.” “Soon? Prime, we just got back,” Ironhide argued. “We need an outside party to argue our case for us. We need Sam’s help.” Jadefire picked up on a slight stagger as he came closer. “Sir, hold still a second.” She grabbed Ratchet’s scanner and checked his levels. “You haven’t been resting at all the past week!” “I’m fine.” She wanted to push the issue, but the tone he gave off immediately made her stop. “Optimus,” Ratchet tried, “Sam is in the process of leaving for the human academy. We can’t interrupt his life right now. Give him a few days.” He minutely nodded to Ironhide and Jadefire. “Give us all a few days. To figure out a course of action, at least, and for you to rest.” The larger ‘bot nodded stiffly after a few seconds of thought. “I hadn’t considered the others’ well-being. I’ve been a bit distracted lately.” He held on to his helm as if he had a processor ache kicking in. “One more thing, Ratchet. The twins could use a bit more repairs to their memory cores.” “Of course. And the femmes?” “Fighting better than ever now that Arcee can control them. Still good on their own as well.” Ratchet nodded. “I’ll tend to them once you return to your quarters.” The medical officer followed Optimus out, leaving the other two alone once more. “I won’t be able to come, huh?” Jadefire asked as she put the scanner away. “Rather you didn’t. We’ll need someone here in case we have to have Ratchet out on the field with us.” She nodded. “How long this time?” “No telling for sure. A few days to a week, maybe more.” She fell silent for a minute, playing with some of the tools. “Are you still offering?” “As long as you’re still willing.” “Lock the door.” He grinned at her answer. “Can’t wait long enough?” “For this, no.” As he locked the door, she cleared off the table they had used to fix him seven months ago. “Ratchet will be furious, you know.” “Let him be.” The grin morphed into a smirk as he pressed against her back, holding himself up on the table. “This is just from a week of no interfacing, isn’t it?” “Part of it.” The smirk faded. “Lay on the table for me.” “Thought it could be done at this angle as well, as you’ve proven on a few occasions.” “We’re not doing that one. Not tonight.” “Oh.” She turned around as he let her move freely again, shifting herself onto the table and laying flat down against it. “How do we do this?” “I’ll do everything. Just… just whatever you see, ignore it. Good or bad.” He waited for her to nod to lean over her. With a gentle tug, he let her chest plates open, exposing her spark, doing the same for his own. “Last chance to change your mind.” “Not on your life.” He lowered his spark to hers, seeing them both flare up in intensity, and the electrical shocks they got through interfacing arose, intensified by being so close to the core of their being. An inch or so away from her chest plates, their sparks ever-so-slightly left their chambers, merging into one. In that moment, they saw each other. All their faults, their perfections, their thoughts, emotions, senses. Everything was laid out in front of them. Even memories came to the surface, good ones, and bad. He saw through her memory of the first time she started seeing him as more than just her dad’s best friend, felt her remember how shy she felt around him. She saw memories as well, mainly of war, death, and devastation. She reached up and pulled his mouth plates to hers, seeking to ease his discomfort in any way that she could. Each pulse their combined sparks gave brought them closer to a strange sort of overload. One completely different than from interfacing. The pulses came more and more intense, right before their overload hit, making them both groan and scream in unison. The sparks split, but very faintly, they could see a swirling mix of the two in each of the orbs. As they both calmed down, Jadefire no longer felt faint emotions from him that the subconscious bind gave. Instead, she could read him like an open datapad, nothing hidden at all. And, alternatively, he could feel the same. “So this is the real thing…” “That’s right. Quite literally, it’s until death do us part.” She smiled and leaned up into him. “Wouldn’t have it any other way.” A sudden pounding on the door made them look over, seeing Ratchet’s face in the small window. They faintly heard him yell, “I needed that!”While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error. The AFF system includes a rigorous and complex abuse control system in order to prevent improper use of the AFF service, and we hope that its deployment indicates a good-faith effort to eliminate any illegal material on the site in a fair and unbiased manner. This abuse control system is run in accordance with the strict guidelines specified above.
