“Careful, you idiot.” Leonardo snarled at his youngest brother. “They’ll hear you, scatter and I’ll have to chase them all around the city.”

[darkness-to-redemption]

And she did. Mikey was a very vocal individual in anything he did. Fighting, annoying Raph and Inferna, pissing Ratchet off…..this aspect was no different.

The more he grew comfortable, the more he churred, nipped playfully and pushed in firmer. All the while making sure Ariel was feeling nothing but enjoyment after the initial discomfort.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

While Ariel was more of a quiet, calmly observant type woman. Her body language was saying it all during her pleasure. Especially her wings as they curled and gently flapped at times.

She began to feel a build, and it was coming quickly. Her grip on Mike stayed gentle because she wasnt about to hurt him. Ever.

But her fingers were digging in a bit as she became so needy for her release.

“M-mike!” She begged.

@darkness-to-redemption

[darkness-to-redemption]

Mikey groaned as he felt her clamp around him. This was so very new, and precious, to him. She, was precious to him….

His eyes watched her intently as she moved under him, not caring that the couch was about to tip backwards by this point with his thrusts. Then, his eyes closed and filled with tears at feeling an orgasm hit him for the first time without him having to hurt a woman to get it.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Ariel was clawing into the couch as her body finished its uncontrollable seizing. She couldn't keep her eyes open at all by this point. It felt good to get this out of her system. The tension had been building up, and if she was being completely honest the lack of bonding was taking a toll. Gods didnt have a weakness until they did, then it really was a crippling weakness. Not even chaos crystal could hit like this, they figured out how to grow immunity to that. Though it was gone at the moment in these new bodies.

In the meantime, the goddess of air sat back and enjoyed herself as Mikey was able to let loose. He equaled her in strength and power now, but that didn't scare her. She was so lost in the moment, she barely didnt see the soft, gold glow quickly sweep over them for a brief moment.

Vicky slowly raised a brow at Jessica. If Vicky hadn't been so jaded and reclusive, these two could have been twins.

"And you tell me not to get killed by him." Vicky muttered.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[selfless1978]

Vicky came up and tossed her bag next to where her friends were sitting. "Leo is better." She said with a raised brow. "If you are going to run around out of uniform, at least pick the right turtle."

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

"Youre supposed to be out of uniform here, dork" Jess stuck her tongue out at Vicky.

"And Raph is the right turtle. I will die on this hill" Jess waved off.

"Besides. He bodies Leo" Jess flexed with a grin.

"This everyone?" The out of uniform captain asked.

"Sure is. Ready when you are" Jess nodded.

The captain lead the way out the front doors of the hotel near the vans. When vicky and Aon were moving towards the vans with the flight crew Jess grabbed them and pulled them toward the other van.

"Always stick with the Ravens" she explained, moving them along.

"Youre with an MP and an infantryman. Why do you need Ravens too?" Aon raised an amused brow.

"This aint your element. This IS their element" she quickly explained as they piled on to the van.

"It aint your element either" Vicky huffed.

"Why do you think I'm sticking with the raven? No shit. There is nothing you can say to me I haven't already said 3 inches from the mirror" Jess said with a serious expression making Aon straight up laugh.

"Troy Bond is hilarious. Nice choice" Aon approved.

Sideswipe hopped in second to last, while Ironhide followed up the rear, his HAP making the whole van shift. Making the driver check the rear view with surprise and annoyance. Sideswipe was about to drop another smart ass comment to him but the scar ridden, jacked HAP grabbed him by the collar, yanked him closer.

"Not a word" the mech briefly warned.

"Ill buy you two a room after out next leg" Jess assured them getting a glare out of both Ironhide and Sideswipe.

"Cant. Have to keep an eye on your troublemaking ass" Sideswipe gave Jess a wry look.

"Youre lecturing ME on being a troublemaker? Yeah ok" Jess sat back as the van started to move.

"And you tell me not to get killed by him." Vicky muttered.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[selfless1978]

"Hmm." Vicky hummed thoughtfully. She worked a bit more on her hair, making sure the bun was tight and wouldn't fall out of place. "Sir," Vicky sat down to pull her boots on, "I honestly believe Elita is in there. This cube of yours seemed to recognize something. And I honestly believe that it's scaring the piss out of Aon. That has to be scary, not knowing if her current self will get buried if Elita comes out fully. The only thing I can say is maybe try to find a way to where they can merge without either loosing themselves."

Vicky tied her boots and quickly packed her bag, tossing her wet swimsuit into a snatched garbage bag before stuffing it in last and closing the zipper. "I'd make Sideswipe and the others back off the topic. It's upsetting and confusing her. Which is making Aon buck against the whole thing. Even Optimus. Maybe he should try loving Aon instead of forcing Elita out. Something tells me Elita will come through when she's needed the most and things will sort themselves out if everyone would just back off trying to force things."

Vicky slung her bag over her shoulder and sighed very softly. "Like I'm one to listen to about anything involving heart sensitive issues though. I'm always picking the wrong ones myself. To the point I'm tired of looking." Her voice was soft, defeated. Then she slipped her expressionless mask on and tucked any softness she let show behind it. Vicky then headed to the door, but not before a sharp stab of loneliness hit her.

To have a love like that, to carry on so long like the love Optimus had for Elita.....

Who was she kidding. That kind of fairy tale wasn't meant for her. She'd been hurt too many times to really appreciate it.

"I'm ready to go, Sir."

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

"Optimus treads very carefully with Aon. He's getting sabotaged by every one else" Ironhide assured her. Mulling everything else Vicky said.

"I'll protect you from the wrong choices, too" the mech assured way too casually.

"Come on. It's time to meet the crew. Jess and Aon are already down there. We can discuss this further, later"

.

.

Jess was chilling next to Aon in her civilian clothes. The new pilots were side eyeing her a bit.

"Is that a ninja turtle tank top?" The commander asked. Jess nodded with confidence and certainty. Wearing her Raphael ninja turtle tank top proudly.

"Way to stand out" he pursed his lips with disapproval.

"Sir? Im a white woman, not wearing a burka, covered in tattoos, and wearing shorts. Im having fun at least" she shrugged.

"Fair enough" he caved.

Sideswipe and Aon chuckled a bit next to her.

Vicky began to wrap her braid into a tight bun. "Then, the only plausible explanation is that it recognized something in Aon and reacted to it. Did she have these Elita lapses before it zapped her?"

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

"She claims she didnt. She doesnt talk a lot about herself prior to joining the team. And her profile was minimal, parents unknown, deceased brother. No social media."

Vicky thought a moment as she ran the brush through her hair. "This, Sam was it?, he was able to touch the cube and not get hurt. Right?"

Ironhide nodded. That information was safe enough to reveal since it was common knowledge.

"But Aon said it shocked her." Vicky put her brush down and began to braid her hip length hair. "Is this thing known to be sporadic like that? I mean, is, or should I say, was, there something in it to where it could just short out like that?"

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Ironhide shook his head.

"It has never interacted with organics. Only sentient and non sentient machines. Even broken, it should not be "shorting out." We dont know why it shocked Sergeant Aon. Ratchet scanned her, nothing abnormal or machine about her" The large man explained

Vicky rolled her eyes. Everyone gets hungover. Jessica just hadn't found the right mix yet.

Vicky stepped into her hotel room and began to gather up a fresh set of clothes to change into. Then began to brush out her damp hair.

"Ironhide, sir?" She asked the empty air, knowing her guardian was not far away. Sure enough, his holoform popped in. "Can I ask some questions about this cube thing?"

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Sure enough, ironhide materialized in, sitting in the chair, arms crossed as he watched Vicky.

"What is it you wish to know?" Hed answer depending on what she asked. The cybertronians got a little defensive about their technology.

"Another reason I tend not to drink much." Vicky said, a bit smugly. "You never know when you being hung over doesn't matter."

Then she winced as her headache flared a moment. She drank more of her Gatorade as she stepped into the elevator.

@infuriatedleprechaun

"I dont get hungover. So its all good" jess waved off.

"Besides, people that do get hungover that fly with us usually huff the oxygen on the jet, Anyway. Get rid of said hungover" the airman snickered.

Aon chuckled at all of that, sneaky little airman.

"See you guys down there soon. The crew will be in civilian clothes. So they'll be difficult to find" aon sighed.

"Told you so." Vicky said, not really surprised. "There is no turning in for the night when you're on alert. I guess we better go up and get changed. Not sure swimsuits are proper military uniforms."

Her mind, however, wasn't really interested in rubbing it in. She wanted to learn more about this cube thing. Vicky was developing a hunch, but didn't want to just throw it out there without more information.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

"They had more pilots here. Bull shit. I guess the fact we've been drinking makes no difference, either" Jess muttered in annoyance.

Jess hopped out of the pool, dried down with the hotel towel, and put it in the dirty bin by the pool side. Slipping her clothes back on to go back upstairs. Aon following her lead the entire time.

"The flight crew said they'd meet you in the lobby in 20. Youre taking our tail" the pilot finished. Jess gave the pilot a bitter thumbs up and walked with the rest of the women and haps to the elevator.

“Careful, you idiot.” Leonardo snarled at his youngest brother. “They’ll hear you, scatter and I’ll have to chase them all around the city.”

[darkness-to-redemption]

Mikey finally let himself go. All of his attention and thoughts were on her. His beautiful guardian angel. Nothing else but the need to make her feel loved, cherished even, was allowed in his thoughts.

In the spirit world, Morokuma tilted her head a moment, then smiled gently as she pulled her consciousness away from their connection to give Mikey the privacy this situation deserved.

Mikey himself now turned his own past into a tool to help Ariel feel nothing but pleasure after the initial pain. Making new memories to fully drown out the old ones.

Then, for the first time ever, Mikey churred. A sound that was soft and loving as he pushed repeatedly into Ariel.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Ariel gave her body time to adjust to Mike, once the pain went more into pleasure she went with the flow and rhythm. Keeping her entity on a tight leash, she wasnt about to risk this moment for anything.

She pressed her hips into his, encouraging his pace. And let out a shaky breath full of pleasure, her arms fell from his neck and onto the couch above her head. Fully submitting to Mikey, and watching him move.

She heard the new sound and blushed deeply at it. But couldn't give it too much thought because her mind was locked in on what was going on. But whatever that was it was cute and she wanted to hear it a lot more.

"Gotta have a crush to talk about first." Vicky muttered bitterly. Then she remembered Ironhide had flirted with her earlier. No he wasn't. Yes he was. That was not flirting....

Anyway!

"How exactly did Sam manage to do that?" Vicky asked, trying to get her still fuzzy mind to focus on more important things than men thinking she was their personal sex relief dispenser.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

"Are all earth women this dense?" Sides blinked.

"What are you talking about?" Jess sneered.

"That guy from earlier has been staring a hole into you, Aon, Optimus is so lovestruck over you it's insane. And Vicky-" he was cut off by being smacked into the water by Ironhide's hap.

Aon rolled her eyes, turning her attention back to Vicky.

"A cybertronian relic: The all spark. Had infinite amounts of energy to create new life. Dude rammed it into Megatron's chest killing him instantly. It's reduced to slivers"

"Dude that's crazy" Jess breathed

"Is that what we were moving when nemesis prime showed up?" Jess narrowed her eyes.

"No. I was guarding it that day" Aon didn't know WHAT the girls were transporting or guarding.

"I would know. It shocked the shit out of me" Aon sighed with a hand to her head in memory.

@selfless1978

[selfless1978]

Proving Sideswipe right, Vicky's still recovering mind didn't immediately catch on. She just looked mildly confused at the interaction between the bots.

Then turned her attention back to the conversation. "You got zapped by it?" Vicky asked Aon for clarification.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

"Yeah. Got the weird side effects afterwards. That shit hurt" the marine NCO huffed.

"I gotta say. This is not looking good for you" Jess pursed her lips at the woman.

"That's what we've been saying" Sideswipe assured.

"That makes no sense" Aon pointed a finger to the fellow front liner.

"Sunny and me fought megs in the pits" Sides said

"No you didn't." Aon looked confused but confident.

"You see??? How do you know that???" Sides said

"Hey. You guys are flying out with other pilots. Like, right now" one of the flight crew announced to the front liners and maintainer.

"Fuck" Jess said.

Mikey hung his head with a blush that had nothing to do with their intimate position. Even after all these years, he had deep down felt that he was nothing to be proud of. It’s why those memories still haunted him. It’s why he couldn’t give Ariel this kind of physical love before.

“I’m proud of me too.” He finally admitted softly before looking directly at her. Then brought his lips to hers in a kiss as he slowly pushed himself into her soft body.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Ariel wrapped her arms around his neck, gladly accepting the kiss. Her entity going ablaze at the attention, after bonding so long ago. It was finally getting the attention it was really demanding.

Her body arched as he started to slide in, wings spreading instinctively. Her body shuddered with both pain and pleasure. Her breath was picking up, grip on the couch tightening.

Mikey wiped his mouth as he raised his head, smitten with her reaction. So many emotions were going through him. And the more negative ones finally were pushed away.

“You are so beautiful.” He almost whispered as he brought his face to hers. His own groin was now aching for his own satisfaction, but he took a moment to cup Ariel’s cheek gently. His eyes were free of any past torment, shining clear and blue as he lifted her legs over his shoulder and positioned himself.

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Ariel was tense with excitement but a little bit of nervous anticipation. Her eyes were gentle and trusting though while looking at her lover.

"I'm proud of you" she said with a prideful smile. What he did/overcame was not easy, but he did it, he could move on with his life, to the next big step.

Vicky then narrowed her eyes a little. "Or are you actually able to hear him reporting in?"

@infuriatedleprechaun

[infuriatedleprechaun]

Aon tried to hide her prying ears, but you could tell she was growing suspicious, but more importantly: worried.

"They said Decepticon activity is happening right now with the boy" Aon said quietly to Vicky and Jess.

"He said this team is going to reroute and fly back to the states. Pilots will get a phone call soon"

"They'll get orders before we leave in the morning most likely" Jess explained.

"That was over comm. AND in cybertronian dialect. What ARE you Aon?" Sideswipe's eyes narrowed, what looked seriously.

"Drop it. Its not funny anymore" Jess waved off.
