Author’s note: Finally, the story you’ve all been waiting for! Darkfire and Megs get a little romantic in this fic. Ah, I’m so happy for them. But…there are always problems with relationships…

Have you ever been in love

You could touch the moonlight

When your heart is shooting stars

You’re holding heaven in your arms

Have you ever been so in love?

Have you ever walked on air, ever

Felt like you were dreamin’

When you never thought it could

But it really feels that good

Have you ever been so in love?

Have you ever been in love

You could touch the moonlight

When your heart is shooting stars

You’re holding heaven in your arms

Have you ever been so in love?

The time I spent waiting for something

That was heaven sent

When you find it don’t let go

I know…

Have you ever said a prayer

And found that it was answered

All my hope has been restored

I ain’t looking anymore

Have you ever been…

Some place that you ain’t leavin’

Somewhere you gonna stay

When you finally found the meanin’

Have you ever felt this way?

The time I spent waiting for something

That was heaven sent

When you find it don’t let go

I know…

Have you ever been in love

You could touch the moonlight

When your heart is shooting stars

You’re holding heaven in your arms

Have you ever been in love?

Have you ever been in love?

So in love

"Have You Ever Been In Love" performed by (surprise, surprise) Celine Dion.

Darkfire was trotting down the hallway in beast mode. Her mane and tail of fire blazed brightly on the black walls of the base. Her dragon-like wings were folded back against her back and her pointed ears were pinned back against her head.

As she was walking, something bumped into her. That something was Megatron, who was also in beast mode at the time.

"Oh, hi Megs," she said politely nodding her head in a greeting manner.

"Such a pleasure to see you, Miss Fire," he said with a smile.

"Always a treat to see you too."

"Where are you off to?"

"Just…going out."

"I wouldn’t suppose anyone is accompanying you?"

"No, I’m going by myself."

"It is quite…cold tonight, is it not?"

"Yeah, it is."

"Mind if I…come with you?"

"You wanna come with me? Ok, sure."

He smiled and turned away. "Meet me at the entrance in about 5cycles."

She nodded her head and turned the other way. Finally, I’m getting along with him. He seemed more nervous than I did, she thought.

* * *

In about a few minutes they were in the air and flying out to…wherever their destination was.

"It’s a lovely night, isn’t it?" Megatron asked breaking the silence.

Darkfire could hardly hear him over the flapping of her wings and his jet thrusters. "What did you say?!" she called over the noise.

"I said, isn’t a lovely night?"

"Oh! Yes! It is!"

The T-Rex sighed and looked below him. What to do? What to do? What do you say to someone that you…I won’t say it yet…but what should I tell her? That I love her? he thought.

"There’s the spot!" Darkfire called out pointing to the spot with her hoof.

Megatron nodded and they landed softly on the wasteland. "It’s um…nice here," he said looking around.

"That’s what I would say," the red horse replied. "Darkfire, TERRORIZE!"

She transformed and grabbed something out of her subspace pocket. "This is the right location. So where is it?"

"Where is what?" Megatron asked from behind her. He was now in robot mode as well. He was trying to see over her shoulder. They were both around the same height, so that made her just as hard to look over to see things.

"I got a reading from right here saying that there was a stash of energon, but it looks like I was wrong, as usual."

"It seems you picked a very…romantic spot," he mumbled.

"Huh? What was that?"

"Nothing." Megatron did not know how to word his feelings. He had never told anyone that he loved them. He despised females, but…Darkfire was more than just a female; she was an Angel of Fire or his favorite, the Angel of Death. She was beautiful, for a horse, that is.

He wondered for a second. What does a guy give a girl on a date? Oh yes, a flower. Isn’t it a rose or tulip or something like that? He looked down at the patch of flowers next to him.

"These will do," he said cheerfully. He picked up a bundle of roses, but to spare him the agony of smelling all of them, he chose the best one.

"Yuck, I hate the smell of roses!" he grumbled. He cleaned it off and hid it behind his back.

"Ahem, Darkfire, there is something I would like to present you with," he said cautiously.

"Really? What is it?" she asked with enthusiasm.

He pulled the rose out and handed it to her. "For me?" she asked.

He nodded. "You are the sweetest bot alive!" she cried and pulled him closer and kissed his cheek.

"Uh…you’re welcome," he said grinning.

"No man has ever given me a rose before."

"Well, I’m the first."

"Yes, you are the first." They both sat down on a rock.

Darkfire then looked at the sunset. "It’s beautiful, isn’t it?"

"It’s wondrous, if not lovely." Where did that come from? I never liked the sunset! So why am I saying how lovely it is? he thought.

Megatron noticed Darkfire’s hand next to his and he brushed hers gently. "Sorry," he said.

"It’s ok," was her sweet reply. She then placed her hand on his and held it tightly. Megatron saw this and was shocked at her response.

As soon as the sun set, they turned toward each other. They gazed into each other’s eyes and smiled. Then, they each said the most dangerous words known to Cybertronians:

"I love you, Megs," Darkfire quietly said.

"I love you too, Fire," Megatron quietly replied.

They looked each other in the optics, and kissed softly. Megatron wrapped his arms around her waist as she wrapped her arms around his neck. They fell off the rock, kissing of course.

Blackfire was sent out to find her sister, by Inferno, but found something far worse than that.

She came into a clearing of forest and saw two familiar figures. Is that Darkfire and Megatron? she wondered.

She flew down to get a closer look, and sure enough she spotted her leader and sister making out. "How did she…? When did she…? This cannot be happening!" she said in shock.

She transformed to robot mode and watched them closely. "When did they get struck by Cupid?" she wondered while making the bow and arrow movements with her hands.

"Obviously a couple minutes ago, horse," a deep voice said from behind.

"Rampage?! I didn’t know you were out here," Blackfire said to the transmetal crab.

"I followed you. So, Megatron and your sister are making out, are they? We can take care of that."

"How?"

"Oh, we can…ambush them."

"Our own comrades?"

"Or, we could…scare them off."

"I don’t like either one."

"Tough, live with it."

I thought I could trust him. He doesn’t seem trustworthy anymore, Blackfire thought.

"Rampage, I thought you liked me…" said Blackfire walking up to him.

"I do, just…not at this very moment," he said in a rush.

"Uh-huh. Well, just because they are making out in public, doesn’t mean that we can’t too."

"Miss Blackfire, please. I am not in the mood!"

"Are you ever going to be in the mood?"

"I don’t know."

"Silverbolt, get over yourself," Wildfire was telling his heroic friend.

"I cannot forget my beloved, no matter if she is the enemy," replied the fuzor.

"But, it is rather difficult to fight when your girlfriend is on the other side, is it not?"

"How would you know?" Silverbolt snapped.

"I don’t. I just know that it’s hard. I have two sisters that are Predacons, remember?"

"That was their choice. I know my love, she would never disappoint me."

"Fine."

Silverbolt walked away. Whitefire stepped into the room. "So, how is everything?" Wildfire asked her.

"Wonderful. Isn’t life glorious?" his sister replied dreamily.

"You feeling ok?"

"Yeah, I’m fine."

"You in love?"

"Uh-huh."

"With who?"

"Dinobot…"

"Dinobot?! That Predacon traitor?!"

"That’s the one."

"You can’t love him!"

"Why not?" she demanded snapping back to reality.

"He’s too…honor bound!"

"What’s the matter with that?"

"He’s just not the guy for you."

"Oh? Ok, since you know me better than anyone, what kind of guy would you say is good for me?"

"Just…not Dinobot."

"I like him and you can’t break us up!"

"Just watch me!"

Whitefire trotted away in beast mode. She almost knocked down Dinobot. "Hello, Angie," he said with a smile. He was in beast mode also.

"Hi, DB," the white Pegasus/unicorn replied sighing.

"Something wrong?"

"It’s just that…Wildfire doesn’t want me seeing you anymore."

"Why?"

"He doesn’t think you’re the right guy for me."

"Why is that?"

"He thinks you’re too honor bound."

"Oh he does, does he?!" His voice rose with the intensity to echo throughout the base.

"Don’t get mad. I already got mad at him. He doesn’t need a lecture from you."

"I will straighten him out!"

"Dinobot, I love you, you know that. If you loved me, you wouldn’t get vengeful over one silly comment."

The raptor sighed. "All right, but this is for you, sweetheart."

The horse then trotted away. "Wildfire thinks he can take Angel away from me, ha, I’d like to see him try!" Dinobot said grinning evilly. "I will have to take matters into my own claws…"

* * *

Darkfire and Megatron soon recovered from their kissing frenzy. "Wow, that was…invigorating," said Darkfire catching her breath.

Megatron agreed and helped her up off the ground. "Don’t ever talk me into doing that on the ground again. I have at least an entire colony of ants and termites growing inside of me now!" he replied with a bit of sarcasm.

"Not as bad as the poison ivy that we’re both standing on!" The two jumped in the air screaming.

"You know, someone oughtta put a sign here saying: Poison ivy. DANGER!!" Darkfire cried.

"Indeed. The same thing to be done with these mosquitoes! Ouch!" Megatron said scratching himself.

"Hey, I thought I just saw someone in the shadows. Blackfire, if that’s you, come out right now!"

The shadow did not come out. "Miss Fire, I order you to come out, NOW!" Megatron shouted glaring at the shadow.

It still refused to move. "Fine, you want it that way, so be it! I’m gonna kill you—Who are you?" Darkfire said staring at what appeared to be a large Pegasus.

"I’m Korea. And you are…?" the creature replied.

"I’m Darkfire and this is Megatron."

"Lemme guess. You’re Predacons, right?"

"Yeah, I guess you could say that we are."

"Thanks, that’s all I needed to know."

"That’s it?"

"Yep. Now I know who to destroy."

"Wait! Did I just hear the word ‘destroy’?" asked Megatron as he stomped over to her.

"Yes, you did. I am a Maximal." She then stepped out of the shadows.

"Whoa! You are very strange," Darkfire commented.

Korea was a beautiful horse with green, sparkling wings. Her eyes were an emerald green and she had a sea green mane and tail. She had a braided tail and part of her mane was also braided. Her hooves were silver and her body was mostly purple with tints of sea green. If you saw her, you would say that she would look like a mythical goddess of weather or sea or even eternity.

"Okay, let me get this straight. You’re Korea. You’re a Maximal, not a Predacon. You’re a Pegasus like my sisters and myself. You came here without anyone knowing your presence. And now you claim to want to destroy us? Did I miss something, or did I get it all right?" Darkfire said looking at both Korea and Megatron.

"Well, let’s see. I’m a Maximal. You’re both Predacons. What does a Maximal do to a Predacon?" Korea replied with a smirk.

"She leaves them alone?"

"EEERRR! Wrong! She destroys them! Korea, MAXIMIZE!"

She then transformed into a tall, feminine robot with sea green braided hair and emerald green eyes. Her face was silver and her lips were purple. Her wings folded onto her back making her capable of flying in both modes. Her body was mostly purple and sea green with shades of silver. Her horse head became her shield, and her braided tail, became a handy whip.

"Watch your backs, Korea is on the rampage!" she cried.

"Speaking of rampage…" said a deep voice.

"Who are you?!" she demanded.

"Oh, I’m your worst nightmare, I’m Rampage."

"Yeah, well I’m Korea, Goddess of War!"

"Are you?"

"Yes, and I can prove it!" She drew out her sword and sliced through his metal.

"Rampage! You will pay dearly with your bloody life for that, Maximal!" Blackfire called out from behind the crab.

"And just what’re you gonna do about it?!"

"This!!!" Blackfire grabbed her sister’s fire sword and swung at Korea.

The Maximal ducked and sliced her opponent’s side. "AAAHHH!!" Blackfire cried with agony and fell into stasis lock next to Rampage.

"Okay, this doesn’t exactly seem like the way we planned, is it?" Darkfire mused to Megatron.

"No. First, Korea arrives out of nowhere. Then, Rampage ambushes us and Blackfire follows. What is this world coming to?" Megatron replied with sarcasm.

"It’s coming to a world of defeat, Megs!" a voice from up above cried. They looked up to see a female white Pegasus/unicorn above them.

"Whitefire!" Darkfire shouted.

"That’s my name don’t wear it out!" the white horse replied. She then transformed and fired her eye lasers at the Predacons.

"All right, all right!" Darkfire then turned to Megatron. "I think it’s time for a tactical retreat!"

Megatron nodded and transformed to beast mode. "Hey look, it’s Barney’s evil twin!" Korea smirked.

Megatron glared at her. "I am not Barney’s twin!"

"No, you’re his EVIL twin! There’s a difference!"

"Megs, let’s get outta here!" Darkfire called.

The T-Rex turned and followed the red Pegasus.

"Hey, uh…thanks for savin’ my tail…um…Whitefire," Korea said.

"No problem. You’re a goddess, right?" she asked.

"Uh-huh."

"I’m an angel. Everyone calls me Angel, but my boyfriend calls me Angie."

"Nice to meet you, Angel."

"Let’s head back to base."

Korea nodded and transformed to beast mode. "I love this mythical form! Never in all my life did I expect to be a Pegasus!" she said with enthusiasm.

"The others will be glad to see you," the white fused horse replied smiling.

"Are you half Pegasus and unicorn?"

"Yeah."

"Cool."

The two horses flew off back to Maximal base.

* * *

"Hi, I’m Korea," the purple and green femme said shaking Optimus’ hand.

"Pleasure to meet you," he replied with a smile.

"So we gotta another horse runnin’ ‘round here, huh? ‘Cept dis one’s a little bit prettuh dan da other two," Rattrap said walking over to Korea. "Name’s Rattrap, sweetheart."

"Nice to meet you, Rattrap."

"See? She at least appreciates me."

"Who would ever want to?" Dinobot smirked.

"Shut up, Lizard Lips! At least dis gal’s got some class! Obviously somethin’ you’ve never heard of!"

"Silence rodent, or I will have a new appetizer on my menu!"

"Korea, tell dis jerk off, will ya?"

"Rattrap, this is obviously a conflict that has been going on for quite a while. I can’t just end it with a simple plead," she replied calmly.

"You talk in circles!"

"Yes I do."

"Where did ya find dis lady?" Rattrap asked Angel.

"In Grid Victon. She was battling Rampage, Blackfire, Darkfire, and Megatron," the blue and silver femme replied.

"Well…I like her!"

"You would, wouldn’t you?" Dinobot smirked again.

Korea glared at him. "Don’t talk, warrior! I bet you don’t even know the Code of the Warriors!"

"And what makes you think you do?"

"I am the Goddess of War! I know all about war, battle, etc."

"You do not!"

"Dinobot, calm down!" Whitefire said restraining him.

Korea narrowed her green optics at the raptor-bot. "Watch your back, warrior. I WILL get you," she mumbled to herself.

Wildfire then came up the lift. "Oh, we have company, do we?" he asked.

"Yes, Wildfire, this is Korea," Optimus said.

"Pleasure to meet you," he said shaking her hand.

"Always nice to meet a hero," she replied with a smile.

He blushed a little and grinned. "A h-hero? You think I’m a hero?"

"You are, aren’t you?"

"Well…yes. But…I never really considered myself a hero."

"Well…why not learn from Mister Sensitivity over there?" she mused glancing over at Dinobot.

He growled at her. "No matter if she is gorgeous, she is a little bitch," he mumbled.

"Yes, but even bitches can hear when a male is insulting them," Korea sneered glaring at him.

"Uh…" Dinobot could hardly say anything.

"Dinobot, did you call her a bitch?" Angel asked him.

"Maybe…"

"You big, stupid idiot! She’s my friend, not just an object to ridicule!"

"She violated my honor!"

"I did no such thing!" Korea protested.

"Indeed, Predacon! Listen to the Goddess of War! She’ll know more than you any day!" Wildfire agreed.

"I am going on scout patrol! Don’t count on me returning!" Dinobot said and rode the lift down.

"Now look what you did! He left!" Whitefire cried.

"So?" Wildfire and Korea said in unison.

"So, he’s my boyfriend!"

"We have already been through this, he is not your boyfriend!" Wildfire angrily said.

"He is to!"

"Is not!"

"Leave me alone! I love Dinobot and you both just ruined our relationship!"

"Just goes ta show dat some relationships don’t last long," Rattrap said rolling his optics.

"SHUT UP RATTRAP!!" cried everyone in the room.

"Sheesh, try ta tell everyone da truth an’ dey all blow up in yer face!"

"Do you hear that?" Cheetor asked trying to annoy Rattrap.

"Yeah, it sounds like a pinging noise," Korea smirked.

"Hey! Dis, isn’t good!"

Everyone laughed throughout the base as Dinobot slowly stalked away cursing under his breath.
