Bombshell and Starscream just sat there, watching the sun go down.  Starscream was still gently holding Bombshell who had just stopped leaking energon, though her gentle faceplate was still stained with the blue energon tears that she had already leaked.  Starscream quickly took a small shammy out of a subspace pocket and used it to dry his sparkmates tears as well as gently clean off her face.  She purred and smiled at the loving attention, something she had missed for the past two weeks.

Starscream thought about what was going to happen now that he and his precious sparkmate were with sparklings.  And, absentmindedly, Starscream began to scratch behind Bombshell’s cat-ear -like antenna, receiving a purr as well as a warm feeling in his own spark.  And when he realized what he was doing, he continued to scratch her in her favorite spot, but he could not help but wonder why it seemed like he had met her before, but in a different form.  Bombshell, sensing the questions that Starscream had, began to tell her story.

(8 months ago)

Leila was a very special human girl, but what made her special were the half-feline powers that she possessed.  And while in her bipedal human mode, her cat ears and tail could be seen, when she transformed into a black and white cat, very little was seen of her human form, excepting her green eyes.  She had green eyes both as a human and as a cat, which was an indication to the ones who knew her that the cat was her.  And while she was happy about being able to change into a cat and transform, she found it was very difficult to find a guy to love her for who she really was.  The fact that she could change her form had scared many a prospect away.  Hurt, but not willing to give up, it was not too much later when Leila finally met the transformers.

She first met Hotshot when she was in her cat form and had climbed up a tree to retrieve something for a friend, when she realized she was too scared to climb down.  Hotshot, having just happened to be in the area looking for a minicon, saw the cat meowing in trouble, and being the soft sparked bot that he was, transformed to his bipedal mode and rescued the cat.  Leila, scared of the big robot who was rescuing her, tried to scratch Hotshot, but her claws did nothing.  Hotshot, trying to relax the cat, scratched behind her ears, something that he had learned from Rad and Carlos that could calm cats down.  And soon, Leila relaxed as Hotshot scratched behind her ears.  And shortly after she calmed down, she startled Hotshot by transforming.  The yellow racer almost dropped her, but held onto her gently as he realized that she had passed out in his giant hands.  Seeing no choice, Hotshot brought her back to the base.

Once arriving at the base, Leila woke up to find herself being scrutinized by a very concerned Red Alert, who had never before seen a human that could transform.  As soon as Red Alert realized that the young female was awake,   he introduced himself as well as the other Autobots that were standing around curiously.  And seeing nothing wrong with Leila, Red Alert discharged her from the med bay.  After being set down on the floor, Leila was met by Alexis, Rad, Carlos, Coby, Lori, Bud, Mikela, Kicker, Misha, Billy and Fred.  

They were all curious, but Alexis, Lori, Mikela, and Misha sent off the boys as they were obviously being more of a hindrance than a help.  And since Alexis was the leader of the group, no one argued with her.  Alexis sensed that Leila was overwhelmed and even asked the other girls to give Leila some space, which the other girls gladly did.  Soon it was just down to Alexis and Leila.  Alexis, being the warm, welcoming person that she was took Leila under her wing and showed Leila around the base.  And while Leila had been feeling lonely before, she enjoyed joining the Autobots, as no one judged her here.

A couple months after Leila had come to the base, Starscream had defected from the Decepticons, tired from all the beatings and berating that Megatron blamed on the second in command, though the faults were Megatron’s completely.  Starscream had fled and sought out the Autobots, mostly for the fact that he wanted to destroy Megatron, but Optimus Prime, never wanting to see any bot go offline, allowed Starscream to join the Autobots.  Things were tense at first, but things began to quiet down as Starscream finally decided to be part of the team.  

The one thing that helped was the cat that Starscream saw always walking around the base.  The cat seemed to like the seeker as the little black and white cat with green eyes would purr loudly when the seeker scratched its ears or petted it.  Starscream even woke up to seeing the little female cat curled up on his chassis, right over his spark.  And while Starscream had never seen the cat in human mode, Starscream could tell that there was something different with this cat, as his spark fluttered and skipped a jolt when the cat was nearby.  Odd, he thought, how could I fall in love with a cat?

Leila was absolutely in love with the seeker, but was afraid that her cat mode would scare him off, and so she never appeared as a human around the seeker, choosing instead to win him over by using her alt mode first.  Leila loved the way Starscream scratched her ears, so gentle yet the jolt it gave her made her purr loudly.  She always sought out the seeker.  

Then one day it happened, she did not know how but it happened.  Starscream walked up to the group of humans as he wanted to ask if one of them owned the cat that was roaming around the base.  Leila, having just taken off her hat, was showing the humans her black cat ears that were still visible in her human form.  It was then that Starscream froze.  Leila, not knowing what else to do, transformed quickly, hoping to avoid the awkward situation, and ran away, to hide in her favorite hiding spot, Starscream’s berth.  Starscream, realizing what he just saw and struggling to process it, soon realized that Alexis was yelling at him.   wonderful thought Starscream, not only am I getting yelled at by Alexis, I just scared off the one who my spark calls out to .

Leila was crying, as she felt that the only one she had ever loved had rejected her.  He loved her so much when she was a cat, was that all fake or had she been too quick to judge him.  Not knowing any better, Leila transformed back to her human mode and cried as she thought her heart was breaking.  Before too long though, and unknown to Leila, Starscream had entered the room, as he knew the cat loved to hide in his room.  He found Leila, tail and all sitting on his berth crying.  Starscream felt bad, because he knew it was him that had made her cry.  

Starscream went up to the little human and picked her up gently, and tenderly and soothingly wiped the tears from her eyes.  It was then that she realized that he was still here.  She looked up at him, tears still in her eyes.  Starscream spoke softly to her, bringing her up to the area of his chassis that sat over his spark.  He did not want her to cry, he wanted her to feel the love that he had for her.  Now Starscream realized why his spark had skipped a jolt and shivered every time the cat was near, it was not just a cat, but a human.  

And since Starscream discovered the truth, he always sought out Leila, to the point the rest of the Autobots and humans realized that the two were fast becoming “soulmates” as humans would say, or “sparkmates” as the transformers would say.  The problem was that one was human while the other was transformer.  Someone would have to change.  It was late one night when one of the two finally made the decision.

Having realized that she was no longer happy being a human as so many human men had rejected her, Leila decided it would be better if she changed into a transformer, as she could tell that Starscream loved her with his entire spark.  And so, one night, Leila snuck out with Jetfire in tow.  The reason she had chosen Jetfire was the fact that he was the only one other than Starscream who would be able to fly her where she wanted to go.  And once they were in the air, Leila finally told Jetfire to head to Cybertron.  Jetfire bulked at first, but not wanting her to damage his insides, Jetfire complied with her wish.

Soon they arrived on Cybertron, fortunate not to be shot down by laser fire.  Jetfire set down in an area he was not familiar with, but it was where the young human on board had directed him to go and he was not about to argue with her.  And then, once on the ground, Leila left Jetfire waiting for her, while she entered a dark, mysterious cave that had called to her.  

Inside the cave, Leila ran into an old, antique floating box.  She knew not what it was, but felt that this artifact was the thing that had been calling her.  The blue light surrounding the box soothed her, as she had been scared, her ears perked up, her tail between her legs.  But she was curious, and so she reached out and touched the box that floated right in front of her.  

As soon as she touched it, she felt herself being covered by the light, and she felt herself changing.  And while this mysterious force would leave her feline side intact, the human side would be changed.  She felt her body grow and become metallic.  She realized that this is exactly what she had wanted.  This way she could be with her wonderful Starscream, and as she thought about her lover, her own spark skipped a jolt and shivered.  She knew exactly what that meant, they were meant to me sparkmates.

Jetfire, who was waiting outside, saw the blue light, and was worried.  He was worried that he had brought Leila here and she ended up dying, but he was wrong.  After the light faded, he stood there in shock.  Right in front of his optics, he saw a very beautiful femme.  Her colors were green and red, but she still had the green optics, though they were much lighter than when she had been in her human form.  It was not until Jetfire saw the tail and the cat-ear-like antenna on this femme that he recognized her.

“Leila?” Jetfire asked “is that you?”

“Yes” Leila replied “but I think I should change my name now that I am a transformer, call me Bombshell.”  Jetfire, never one to argue with a femme, was more than happy to follow her command.

“Ok, Bombshell” replied Jetfire, “Let’s get you home.”  

Bombshell just smiled, as she knew her lover would be surprised upon her return.  And since the femme still did not have a flying mode, she had to return to earth in her bipedal mode inside Jetfire.  Jetfire, even though he knew this was Screamer’s girl, could not help but think of the pretty femme that he was carrying inside of him.  She certainly was gorgeous, but he had to stop this or else risk Starscream’s wrath, and that was not something Jetfire wanted to face, and so the two made it back to earth without incident.

They arrived once again, at night, only to find Starscream up and frantically searching for something.  Jetfire and Bombshell realized that Starscream had missed his little lover, Leila, and had been searching for her while they were gone.  Jetfire just stood there as Bombshell quietly approached Starscream.  Starscream was about to jump up and run when he recognized something.  Bombshell was purring and rubbing her metal tail on Starscream’s legs.  Starscream turned around, and noticed the femme that was standing before him.  He looked and noticed her tail and her cat-like ear antennas.  Then he saw the green optics.

“Leila, is that you” asked the seeker, his spark skipping a jolt and shivering, hoping it was.

“Yes, hon, it is me.  I wanted to surprise you and I knew that one of us would have to change and I wanted to do that before you had even thought about it.  And one more thing, my name is no longer Leila, but bombshell.”  Bombshell replied.

Starscream, though shocked, reached up his hand to scratch Bombshell behind her “ears” and received the same deep purrs he got when she was a human and a cat.  Bombshell, even though she was a tank, still had her cat mode, and transformed into a cat once again, still black and white, as her transformer mode had not changed her cat mode.  
And after that, the rest is history

(Returning to present)

Starscream was holding his precious femme tightly yet tenderly in his arms.  This bump in the road they had not anticipated.  They had both gotten drunk on high grade one night, just before Starscream left, and now they were dealing with the consequences of their actions.  The history that Bombshell had told Starscream had made him treasure her all the more.  She was his femme and there was nothing that he would not do for her.  He just wished that the sparklings would be born when there was no more war.

Bombshell felt much better as her strong sparkmate enveloped her in his loving arms.  She leaned up against his chassis, her metal tail rubbing up against his glass cockpit.  Absentmindedly, the two were stroking hotspots and the only thing that stopped the two from interfacing right then and there was a message from Prime.

“All Autobots report in, now” came the call form Prime, “and that includes you Screamer.”  Sensing the urgency, Bombshell and Starscream headed in, hoping that they would be able to convince Prime to keep Starscream closer to base.

And even though Starscream was happy to hear from Prime as well as his sparkmate, the pregnancy weighed heavily on his mind as he knew that Megatron would kill a sparkling if he could.  And since Bombshell was Starscream’s femme, Megatron would not hesitate to take the femme, kill any already developing sparklings, and take the femme for himself to use and abuse until she offlined.  

Hopefully, thought Screamer, hopefully I can convince Optimus to get rid of Megatron, if not for the universe, for the little sparklings yet to be born.
