Optimus Falls In Love

Chapter 17: Decepticons Part 1/2

We got out of bed and went into the washroom to take a shower. Hopefully, our optics are back to their bright blue color and not still violet. We got out of the shower after a couple minutes and put on our covers and armor. We left our room and went to the main room to see what was going on.

I noticed a prophecy on the main computer sire was at and walked over to it. Jack, Miko, and Raf came in with Arcee, Bulk, and Bumblebee. I frowned as I read it then re-read it for the others to hear.

"And it was written in the covenant of Primus that when the 47 spheres align, a perpetual conflict will culminate upon a world forged from chaos, and the weak shall perish in the shadow of a rising darkness.",  I read.

"No skies raining fire? Goes without saying.", Arcee commented.

"It is a doom prophecy after all.", sire explained.

"I say it's a load of hooey.", Bulkhead commented.

"I'd always assumed the ancients were referring to our home planet, but being that Cybertron has been dark for eons.....", I started.

"And considering what has befallen this planet since Megatron's arrival here.", Optimus continued.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. We've known about these superstitions for ages and never gave them a second thought.", Bulkhead stated.

"Why all the ominous rumblings now?", Arcee asked.

"Because the planetary alignment to which the prophecy refers is nearly upon us.", I answered.

"And it would seem it's end point is Earth.", Optimus stated.

"Why Earth?", Jack asked.

"I don't know.", I answered and walked out of the room.

I walked up to the top of the base and sighed. I watched the last part of the sunrise like I used to on Cybertron. I missed seeing Alpha Trion. A few tears escaped my optics and I heard pedes from behind me. I wiped away the few tears and turned around to see Smokescreen and Magnus. I turned back around.

"Are you okay?", Smokescreen asked.

"Yeah. I-I'm f-fine.", I said and a few more tears escaped my optics.

"No, your not. What's wrong?", Magnus asked.

"Back on Cybertron, before I met you, I knew a bot that was somewhat of a mentor to me. Whenever my sire had to go to work when I was just a youngling, he took me to the bot's housing unit. The bot watched me, his friend taught me a few things.", I started crying and Magnus hugged me.

"Never speak of this to ANYONE.", Magnus told Smokescreen and he rapidly nodded.

"What were their names?", Smokescreen asked.

"Alpha Trion and Mirage.", I explained and Smokescreen's optics brightened.

"I guarded Alpha Trion in what turned out to be the final days of the war. I have never heard of a bot named Mirage though.", Smokescreen explained and I nodded.

Smokescreen went back into the base after that and went for a drive. I wonder if Alpha Trion and Mirage are still alive, I hope they are. I heard more pedes coming as Magnus sat me on his lap and kissed my forehelm. Jealousy came through the bond I have with Optimus, I looked over at him and sent reassurance back to him.

Magnus picked me up and gave me to Optimus.

"What is this? Pass Optimus' bond mate around?", I joked, "Come on. Lets head back inside."

We all went back in and continued the conversation.

"Uh, crazy coincidence, heh, r-right?", Bulkhead asked.
