Bellona and Mars, the divine couple of war and conquest, were roaming the ancient ruins of Baalbek, a city that once worshiped them and their fellow gods. They enjoyed the sight of the colossal temples and stones that testified to their former glory and power. They felt a surge of nostalgia and pride as they recalled the battles and victories they had witnessed and influenced in this land.
"Look at this, my love," Bellona said, pointing to a carved relief of a lion devouring a man. "This is how we should deal with our enemies. No mercy, no pity, just raw and savage force."
Mars smiled and kissed her cheek. "You are always so fierce and passionate, my dear. I admire your spirit and courage. But sometimes, you need to be more careful and strategic. War is not only about bloodlust, but also about cunning and skill."
Bellona scoffed. "What do you mean? You know I am the best warrior among the gods. I can defeat anyone who dares to challenge me. I don't need to be cautious or clever. I just need to be strong and fearless."
Mars shook his head. "You are too confident, my love. You underestimate your foes and overestimate yourself. Remember what happened with Athena? She outsmarted you and humiliated you in front of everyone. You should learn from your mistakes and improve your tactics."
Bellona frowned. "Don't remind me of that, my love. That was a fluke, a trick, a cheat. Athena is no match for me in a fair fight. She is a coward and a liar. She used her wisdom and craftiness to deceive me and steal my glory. I will never forgive her for that. That wretched Greek harlot!"
Mars sighed. "You are too stubborn, my love. You refuse to admit your faults and accept your defeats. You should be more humble and gracious. War is not only about glory, but also about honor and respect."
Bellona rolled her eyes. "What do you know about honor and respect, my love? You are the most unfaithful and disrespectful husband among the gods. You cheat on me with Venus, the most vain and frivolous goddess of all. You betray me with your lust and desire."
Mars shrugged. "You are too jealous, my love. You don't understand my needs and wants. You are too harsh and violent for my taste. You only care about war and destruction. You don't know how to love and please me."
Bellona snarled. "How dare you say that, my love? You are the most ungrateful and insensitive husband of all. You ignore me and neglect me for Venus, the most boring and bland goddess of all. You hurt me with your words and actions."
Mars grinned. "You are too adorable, my love. You make me laugh with your anger and frustration. You are so cute when you are mad at me. You know I love you more than anyone else."
Bellona smiled back. "You are too charming, my love. You make me melt with your smile and compliment. You are so sweet when you are nice to me. You know I love you more than anyone else."
They hugged and kissed each other passionately, forgetting their quarrel for a moment.
They were interrupted by a loud noise nearby.
They turned their heads and saw a red and blue Peterbilt truck driving near the ruins.
"What is that?" Bellona asked, curious.
"I don't know," Mars said, suspicious.
They watched as the truck stopped near a large stone pillar.
They saw the truck transform into a giant robot.
They gasped in shock.
"What is that?" Bellona asked again, amazed.
"I don't know," Mars said again, alarmed.
They stared at the robot in awe.
The robot looked at them in surprise.
"Who are you?" The robot asked in a deep voice.
"We are Bellona and Mars, the gods of war," Bellona said proudly.
"We are here to admire our old domain," Mars said cautiously.
The robot nodded slowly.
"I am Optimus Prime, the leader of the Autobots," The robot said politely.
"I am here to investigate an ancient relic," Optimus Prime said carefully.
They looked at each other in confusion.
"What are Autobots?" Bellona asked curiously.
"What is an ancient relic?" Mars asked suspiciously.
They were about to find out more when they heard another loud noise nearby.
They turned their heads again and saw a futuristic looking flying near the ruins.
It was purely gray in color.
It also transformed into a giant robot.
It landed on the sandy and rocky ground, making a loud thud as a crater forms.
It looked menacing and evil.
It was Megatron, the leader of the Decepticons .
He had followed Optimus Prime to Baalbek, hoping to find the relic before him.
He saw Optimus Prime talking to two strange beings.
He recognized them as gods from the files Soundwave had absorbed using his hacking skills.
He didn't care about them.
He only cared about the relic.
He aimed his fusion cannon at Optimus Prime.
He fired a blast of energy.
Optimus Prime saw him and dodged the attack.
The blast hit the stone pillar behind him.
It exploded into pieces.
Bellona and Mars were startled by the sudden attack.
They saw Megatron and recognized him as an enemy.
They felt a surge of anger and excitement.
They loved war and combat.
They decided to join the fight.
They grabbed their weapons and charged at Megatron.
They shouted their war cries.
"FOR WAR!" Bellona yelled.
"FOR ROME!" Mars yelled.
Optimus Prime was surprised by their intervention.
He didn't know who they were or why they were helping him.
He didn't have time to ask them.
He had to deal with Megatron.
He drew his wrist blade, coated in molten Energon.
He ran towards Megatron.
"FOR FREEDOM!" Optimus Prime yelled.
A/N: To be honest, I always felt as though Roman Mythology is overshadowed by Greek Mythology.
A/N: Unlike Ares, who is more violent and impulsive, Mars is more levelheaded, virtuous, and strategic. He was also more benevolent and protective of his worshippers, especially farmers and soldiers. He's also a patron of the Roman state and its army.
A/N: Unlike Zeus, Jupiter only has 14 kids. Jupiter was more detached from the affairs of humans compared to Zeus. Jupiter intervened in the world by controlling fate rather than as an active, visible participant. He was perceived as focused and dedicated to the state and family. Jupiter was able to shape the course of all events on earth, which is something Zeus lacked.
