Summary: Ultra Magnus' first duty shift and he makes out with a Decepticon Femme ...  

Nightingale created by Seawave

Rating - R {NC 17}

He was young, fresh out of training and eager to look good in the eyes of his superiors and uphold the Autobot Cause. His first assignment had been guard duty, on the Gamma Shift which was generally considered to be a   "rookie's  " job, but a serious one nonetheless. The Decepticons could strike at any time. Ultra Magnus was determined to do his best and not let his comrades down. He eagerly awaited at his post, keeping a very sharp eye for even the slightest movement.

The first half of his shift seemed to drag on and passed uneventfully, and he was starting to get more than a little bored. I hope it's not always like this ... Being quite large and strong, Ultra Magnus had hoped to tackle a Decepticon spy to the ground and promptly lead him off to a prison cell. He feigned a yawn and smirked. I should've brought a book...

Almost a split second later, he saw a shadow in the darkness dart away and his mind sprang into action. Quietly, he took off after the shadow, readying his gun.

Careful, his mind said, It might be an Autobot ... Magnus hoped it was a Decepticon, but even if it was a fellow Autobot, he could still pretend, couldn't he? He saw the shadow sneak down a corridor, around a corner, and followed silently.

The shadow Ultra Magnus was following quietly snuck along the corridor, back to the wall, then prepared to unlock the door ahead with a Universal Electronic lock-pick.

  "Hold it."

The silhouetted form's shoulders slumped and the spy froze. Shit.

  "Drop your weapon and turn around - slow." Sensing the spy had no intention of dropping his weapon, Ultra Magnus fired, destroying the silhouetted gun. The spy's black form jerked.

  "Turn around,  " Ultra Magnus demanded.

The small Decepticon did so. Magnus was quite astonished - he'd never seen a female Decepticon before. She regarded him, a little nervously, but did her best not to let it show. Magnus approached her and grabbed her arm.

  "You're not going anywhere."

She tried to struggle away, and was surprisingly strong for her size. Ultra Magnus cursed as she almost escaped and wrestled her to the floor.

  "All right!" she spat.   "You win." The femme winced as he held her arm in a tight lock. He eased his grip a little, but not enough for her to make a break for it.

He lead her to a prison cell - and hated to admit, she was quite attractive.

  "What's your name?  "

  "What's it to you?  "

  "I'm Ultra Magnus."

She sighed.   "Nightingale."

  "That's pretty,  " the Autobot thought aloud.

  "Why thank you,  " the Decepticon said, her voice bitter, both cross at being caught unawares by such a young Autobot - she knew a raw recruit when she saw one, and the other thing, thinking that he was one handsome bastard.

Ultra Magnus lead her into a prison cell and locked the door.

  "Not the first time I've been here, I must admit,  " the Decepticon said.   "I've escaped before, y'know."

Magnus ignored her cocky comments.   "What information have you discovered?  "

Nightingale gave a disdainful smile.   "Nothing so far. Unfortunately some big 'Bot nabbed me before I could find out shit."

  "It's my job,  " Ultra said.   "I can't very well have 'Cons running amok, finding out all our plans and secrets. It'd look bad on my resume."

She gave a smile.   "So it would, I suppose,  " Nightingale said in her best 'I really don't give a shit' voice.

Ultra Magnus cursed himself again for being attracted to the small femme.

  "So, you spy often?  " he asked, feeling a tad uncomfortable. Primus! Is that the best line you could come up with?

  "Yes,  " Nightingale said with a smile.   "It's fun to sneak around. And I don't often get caught."

  "Get lots of info?  "

  "Yeah,  " Nightingale said, with a smile.   "Some useful for tactical advantage, some bits just fun, like who Ratchet spent last night with."

  "What?!"

Nightingale smirked.   "It'll cost ya. That sort of information doesn't come cheap. It's fun to get the gossipy bits."

Ultra Magnus could barely contain his intense curiosity.   "Come on, tell me."

Nightingale smiled.   "Nosey, aren't you? All right ... It was First Aid."

  "What?!!!"

  "Not gonna say I'm lying, now are you? I saw what I saw - Hey they're both into medical stuff. They're prefect for each other."

  "Whoo. I never really thought of Ratchet that way before. Never even heard of him with a femme."

  "Fun to learn, isn't it? So you're always on guard duty?  "

  "First time."

  "Not bad for a first timer. You're good, damn you,  " and she smiled.

  "Too bad for you, ah?  " Ultra Magnus smiled too.

  "Yeah, I guess."

The two were almost on top of each other now and then in a flash, they were. Their bodies clashed and they kissed passionately, violently, Ultra Magnus surprised at the small femme's vigour. Passion instantly flared between the two, both knowing it was wrong, and both not giving a shit. Nightingale slammed her body against Ultra Magnus' and they both crashed to the floor, entwined in each other's arms. Ultra instantly opened his side panel and connected his energy filter into Nightingale's open panel on her side, and sent vigorous pulses of energy into her body. She yelped with delight and returned the flow with equal vigour.

  "Ooooohhhhhh eeeeeee!!!!!" Ultra Magnus shrieked with pure pleasure. He had heard interfacing was pleasurable, but never thought it could be this pleasurable!

They exchanged flows, both knowing anyone could walk into the cell at any moment, but the risk heightened the eroticism and at this point, Ultra Magnus couldn't give a high flying fuck if Optimus Prime himself walked in.

  "First time?  " Nightingale asked.

Magnus nodded, almost breathless and unable to wipe the boyish grin off his face.

  "Enjoy!"

  "Ohh, I am..." he panted, increasing his energy flow.

  "Ooh! Kinky!" Nightingale gasped, thrusting her head back, whilst clutching onto him and increasing her flow to match.

Although part of him knew it was wrong, the other part - the dominant part, right now, wanted nothing else. He felt a surge of power to his head and felt a little giddy for a few moments, but the feeling soon passed and he gazed into Nightingale's smiling face and returned the smile.

  "Fuck, you're beautiful..."

  "You're not so bad yourself..."

Their heads almost rammed together in a luscious, passionate kiss. They kissed each other's faces, then laid kisses all over the other's bodies. Ultra Magnus let out an audible sigh. Part of him never wanted this to end.

Their energy pounded into each other for what seemed like an eternity, their hands and mouths roved everywhere.

  "Oh ... Night, please .... more!" Ultra Magnus screamed.

Nightingale smirked.   "Here ..." she squealed, pulsating more energy into him.

Ultra Magnus shrieked with delight. Nightingale giggled, and Magnus increased his energy flow.

  "Wheeeeeoooooh!" Nightingale gasped.   "Yeah!"

The two continued to pound each other's body with energy until they had almost run out. They broke apart, exhausted and panting, then they burst out laughing.

  "Primus... that was the best! Not bad for a first timer!"

  "Glad you think so,  " Ultra Magnus smirked.   "I'll ... get us some .... energon." His voice was broken with laughs, which forced Nightingale to flop onto the floor and burst out into raucous, most unfeminine sounding laughter.

  "I think I love you, Nightie."

She wiped laughing tears from her eyes.

Ultra Magnus stood and could barely walk straight.

  "Don't stay away too long, Maggie - don't you dare leave me in here!"

  "Hey, trust me. Would I do that to you?  "

He smirked, and managed to make it to the energon storage hangar, narrowly avoiding being seen by Kup.

Ultra Magnus made it back, unseen to the cell with two energon cubes.

  "About time!" Nightingale huffed with a smile.   "I was beginning to feel rejected."

Magnus smirked.   "Here." He handed her a glowing pink cube.

Both Transformers drank them in one gulp and threw the empty cubes away. The two put their arms around each other and Ultra Magnus sighed.   "My shift's almost over. Alpha shift will be taking over soon."

  "Damn."

They kissed gently and stood up, still in each other's arms.

Ultra Magnus opened the door and made sure the coast was clear.

  "What are you doing?  "

  "Letting you go ... prisoner..." he added with a smirk and a wink.

Nightingale smiled.   "Ooh... remind me to spy more often..."

  "Shh! Someone might hear,  " Ultra Magnus whispered.

  "When're you on next?  "

  "Dunno. Have to look at the roster."

He grabbed her arm and lead her out, making it look like he was escorting a prisoner, in case he was seen. He lead her out of the complex, used his scanner to make sure no one was about and released her.

  "Thanks, Night."

  "Thank you,  " Nightingale said with a smile, which held some sadness, which she hid from him.   "I'd better go."

Ultra Magnus kissed her lips gently, before she flew off. He watched her until she was a black speck in the sky. Part of him wanted to jump about and squeal for joy at the amazing time he'd had with her, the other part sad that she was gone, and the other part of him scalding himself for making love to a Decepticon. What sort of an Autobot fucks a Decepticon spy on his first duty shift? What would Optimus Prime say if he knew? He'd kick me out and be absolutely disgusted. Ultra Magnus didn't regard himself a traitor. He hated what the Decepticons stood for and always would. Part of him felt great, the other part rotten. He headed to his quarters for a warm shower.

  "How'd you find your first guard duty shift?  "

Ultra Magnus almost jumped.   "Oh ... it was fine...   "

  "Anything much happen?  "

  "Nothing, Ironhide, absolutely nothing." He felt bad about lying, but couldn't very well tell the old soldier that he'd rogered a Decepticon, now could he?

  "Well, I remember the first time I was on guard duty - my first shift too ... I was achin' for some action and when I got it, well it wasn't what I was expectin.' The 'Con jumped me from behind before I knew what-  "

Ultra Magnus laughed.

  "Well, hey,  " Ironhide said.   "I was young back then, as hard as it might be to believe. I beat him though, but man, was that a fight!"

Ultra Magnus smiled.  A 'Con had jumped him too ... And 'action' he got was much different from Ironhide's ...

Magnus waked past the main control room and stopped when he heard the conversation.

  "I don't know how in Hades they got that information,  " Optimus Prime was saying.   "Those plans were very classified."

  "And how did they discover our secret armaments bases?  " Prowl asked, clearly confused.

  "I don't like it at all!" Red Alert was livid.

  "It's not your fault, Red."

  "Indeed it is, Optimus. I'm in charge of security and, excuse my language, but everything is fucked up!" Red Alert threw his arms into the air.

  "The Decepticons are clever, Red. Don't blame yourself. We need tighter measures."

  "You're telling me! And how they got those security codes is totally beyond me."

  "Calm down, Red,  " Inferno said.   "You'll likely blow a gasket."

Red Alert sat down in a huff, proverbial steam blowing from his audio and olfactory sensors.

Ultra Magnus stepped into the min control room, quite concerned at this new breach of security.

  "How did they find out?  " Ironhide asked, clearly angry.

  "When I was spying on them,  " Bumblebee said,   "I saw a Decepticon Femme reporting to Megatron."

  "Do you know who she was?  " Optimus Prime asked, curiosity piqued.

  "No. Didn't catch her name. She was small, black and claimed to have electronically read some Autobot's mind. Don't know who, though..."

Ultra Magnus felt an uncomfortable rush of nutrients to his head and felt physically sick. Ohh, my God... he almost blurted out.

  "Ultra Magnus."

The red, white and blue Autobot froze.   "Yes... Optimus?  " He felt like a twentieth century Earth schoolboy about to be caned by the headmaster.

  "You were on guard duty last night. Did you-  "

  "No,  " Ultra Magnus almost snapped. He simply could not bring himself to tell Optimus Prime the truth, though it pained him greatly to lie to his leader and friend.   "I didn't see any Decepticon activity. If I may be excused, I have some ... business to attend to."

  "Certainly."

Ultra Magnus struggled to keep his false calm composure, and walked to his quarters instead of running like fuck, as he felt like doing.

He entered his quarters, let the door close and lock, then stormed in and slammed his fist into his computer, shattering the monitor, then continued to pound it until there wasn't anything even Wreck-Gar could salvage. He thrust what little remnants there were left onto the floor and crashed onto his resting ledge, and pounded it with loud noises of frustration, grateful for the sound dampeners.

  "How could she??!! ..... Fucking Decepticon bitch!"

But part of him still felt for her.

Ultra Magnus stood and angrily wiped tears from his face.

He entered his shower compartment and turned it on. He wasn't dirty, but felt like sludge from a place lower than hell. He felt like absolute filth. The water drummed down on him. Ultra Magnus felt a little refreshed as he used the cyber-soap to thoroughly clean and scrub himself, and the warm water was somewhat calming. After more than an hour, he stepped out, used the automatic dry and emerged into his quarters, but spotless as he was, he still felt filthy and doubted the dirty feeling would go away.

Within days, Autobot security had been revamped. Weapons storage had been moved, plans revised, and codes changed, but the damage had been done. The Autobots had suffered heavy losses and Ultra Magnus hated himself for it, but couldn't bring himself to tell his comrades what he had done.

The Autobots clashed in battle with the Decepticons the following day.

  "Well lucky me!" Ultra Magnus snorted as he came face to face with Nightingale. Fortunately they were out of earshot of from any others.

  "No hard feelings, Bub. I was just doing my job."

  "Ohh, none taken!" Ultra Magnus spat.   "So do always fuck your opponents, or what it just me?  "

Nightingale looked annoyed.   "Don't think it wasn't fun, Magnus. I... liked being with you."

  "Oh sure ... rape my mind as well as my body ..."

  "That's not fair!" Nightingale snapped.   "You enjoyed it too - too much for words."

Ultra Magnus slapped her.   "I don't suppose you told them exactly how you got the information.  I'm sure Megatron would approve... Oh, I'm sure ..." Ultra Magnus mimicked the Decepticon Leader's voice   "'Decepticons! Go forth and screw your Autobot opponents at once!"

Nightingale half smiled, half scowled.   "But you did enjoy it, didn't you?  " she pushed, thrusting his fist away.   "You can't blame me for doing my job. I'm a Decepticon, for Primus' sake! Did you expect me to betray my kind? Part of me hated what I had to do, but my Cause means more to me. I'm sure the Autobot Cause means more to you than a night of passion, no matter how enjoyable."

Ultra Magnus let her arm go.   "You are right, but don't think that lessens the pain, and don't expect me to kiss and make up."

  "I don't." Nightingale stood and left him.

Magnus watched her leave, both with anger and respect. Part of him still loved her, the other part hating what she did, although now he understood why, it still pained him.

In the coming years, Ultra Magnus tried his best to forget her and what she had done.

He never saw Nightingale again.

It was over a year after the first battle with Unicron. Galvatron had been restored to Megatron, much to both sides relief, too the Quintessons and Sharkticons had been eradicated, but still an end to the Transformers war remained to be seen.

Ultra Magnus sat on his resting ledge in his quarters with Optimus Prime, his voice, broken by tears streaming down his face.

  "I just can't hide this from you ... any longer... I hate myself for what I did ... and for lying to you... And if you want my resignation you can ... have it. I-  "

Optimus Prime sat down next to him.   "Ultra Magnus, you don't want to resign any more than I want you to. I respect the courage it took for you to tell me this."

  "It sure as Hades took me long enough. I didn't have the guts."

  "I'm sure I'd feel the same in your boots."

Ultra Magnus regarded his leader.   "Prime, you'd never do what I did."

  "It happened a long time ago, Ultra."

  "That doesn't change what I did."

  "No, but you've tortured yourself over it long enough. I'm not angry with you. Having intimate liaisons with Decepticons is not a requirement of new Autobot recruits, but-  "

Ultra Magnus half smiled.   "You can say that again. But part of me didn't regret it at all and still doesn't - and I hate myself for that, and for letting my friends down."

Optimus Prime smiled.   "You're acting as if I've never had lustful thoughts in my life. I know what it's like, Ultra, and I have been with others before."

Magnus failed to hold back a smile, finding it hard to picture Optimus Prime engrossed in mad passionate sex with another.

  "You have?"

  "Sure. Just because I'm the Leader of the Autobots, doesn't mean I'm not allowed to indulge at times."

Ultra Magnus shook his head.   "I don't know what I was thinking. Sure you can, I mean, sometimes I guess I think that you-  "

  "I know,  " Optimus said.   "I guess it's hard for a lot of Autobots to think their leader is just like everyone else."

  "Yeah, it's hard to forget that after all you've done for us, but even so, you've never been with a Decepticon."

  "No, but I have on occasion had a few ... lets just say thoughts about some Decepticon femmes."

  "Oo ... But I went a step further."

  "Was she pretty?  "

The question threw Ultra Magnus off guard.   "Hell yes, shit, she was beautiful, feisty too. Part of me hated her for what she did, but she made me understand it was for her cause, and in a way I respected that."

Optimus Prime nodded.   "We're all different, Ultra. I don't feel angry about what you did. You need to forgive yourself. I sense you're more upset about letting your friends down than anything else."

Ultra Magnus nodded.

  "We all fail sometimes. No one's perfect. You are one of the most trusted and loyal friends I have ever known."

  "Thank you, Optimus. That means a lot. I feel the same about you."

The two friends hugged, Ultra Magnus relieved to at last have found the inner courage to finally tell his friend and Leader.
