Life's New Adventures and Secrets
Chapter 30
~~~~~~~~~~
The next morning, Strongarm woke up feeling weird, she felt something attached to her aft but didn't know what. She reached down and felt a tail, but not Steeljaw's tail. With a yelp, she jumps out of the berth and looks to see she now has a tail, "What the..!?"
Steeljaw bolted up, "What's wrong?" He asked as he looked at her, "You have Wolf-Con ears."
"I do?" She asked as she felt her helm and felt a pair of ears up there, "What the frag? I got ears too?"
Before Steeljaw could say anything else he heard a high-pitched scream.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Metalsound and Thunderhoof woke up to the scream, "Who screamed---what in the?!" Metalsound looked at Thunderhoof in shock, he had small wolf-like ears just below his antlers.
"What?" Thunderhoof asked feeling confused.
"You have wolf ears," she replied slowly, reaching up to feel his ears, "They're real and surprisingly soft."
"I do?" He asked as he reached up to feel his helm and felt the ears, "Eyo! Who gave me wolf ears!?"
"That's not all you have," she replied, pointing at his tail.
He looks down at his new tail, "I also have a tail!?"
"I think it looks nice on you," she smiled as she intertwined their tails together.
Thunderhoof felt it and smiled, "Maybe it's not so bad after all."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"How the heck did I get wolf ears?!" Knock Out was outside running around the scrapyard in a panic.
Ratchet throws a wrench at him, "Calm down!"
Knock Out flinched as he fell to the ground. Optimus and Megatron both came out to see what was happening, "Does everyone have a tail and ears?" Optimus asked.
Everyone else came out, "Would appear so," Ratchet replied after seeing everyone.
"So, why do we have Wolf-Con ears and a tail?" Sideswipe asked in anger, his new tail lashed out in tune with his emotions.
"Not sure," Optimus replied.
"Maybe Shockwave will know," Knock Out suggested feeling annoyed.
"Where is Shockwave?" Steeljaw asked.
"Probably in his lab, follow me."
Steeljaw followed to see Shockwave. He walks in and finds Shockwave knocked out, "Shockwave!"
Shockwave slowly got up from his workstation, "What time is it?" He didn't notice the Wolf-Con tail or ears on him.
"Shockwave, were you in here experimenting last night?" Steeljaw asked him.
"Yes, I am still trying to figure out how I can revive the Predacons. The substances didn't mix and it made a small mess. Why, is something wrong?"
"Yes. But rather than tell you I'll show you."
"Alright."
Shockwave followed Steeljaw outside. Steeljaw had him look at the others with wolf ears and a tail, "This is what's wrong."
Shockwave circled Sideswipe, taking everything in, "This is very interesting," he muttered much to Sideswipe's discomfort.
"Why are you only circling me? There are others here you know."
"You were closer," he stated as he moved to look at Strongarm, "May I?" He asked motioning his servo to one of her ears.
"Sure."
Shockwave started rubbing her ear before he scratched behind it. Strongarm got into it before she pushed his servo away, "Wow. Now I see why you like being rubbed and scratched behind your ears," she said to Steeljaw.
"It feels nice, doesn't it?" He grinned as Shockwave examined Megatron's tail.
"It does actually," she replies with a bit of a blush on her faceplate.
"What happened, Shockwave?" Megatron asked a bit annoyed at the 'Con examining his tail.
"I am unsure," Shockwave replied as he examined his own tail, "I will have to look into this."
"Yes, you do that."
Shockwave retreated to his lab as Seajumper came out yelling for his mom.
"Right here, sweetie. Are you okay?"
"I have these things on my helm and butt," the sparkling motioned to his wolf ears and tail.
"Cool, everyone has a tail," Emberwing said as she looked at the adults.
Nightback runs up to his mom, " Mom, you have ears and a tail like Dad and me."
"Yes, we're not sure why though. Pretty cool, huh?"
"Yeah."
"OK everyone, let's get started on patrols," Bumblebee told them as he headed out on patrol with Drift and Grimlock.
"Nightback, your mom and I are going on patrol you be good, you hear?"
"Yes, sir."
~~~~~~~~~~
Steeljaw and Strongarm drive along the path, "I always wondered what it was like having a tail but I never expected to actually get one."
Steeljaw chuckled softly, "How long do you think it'll last?"
"Not sure, temporary I hope, feels kind of weird."
"I'm sure it is, I've had a tail all my life. I would miss it if it was suddenly gone."
"I'm gonna need to get used to maneuvering with it."
Steeljaw chuckled again, "Don't worry, I'll help you," he crooned.
"I hope so."
"Would you let me rub your ears as you do for me?"
"Maybe..."
"Please, after all of the rubs you've given me, I want to return the favor. Besides, it makes you look cute."
"I may let you if you can catch me," she says as she drives off onto a path leading into the woods.
Steeljaw quickly followed after her. You just love having me chase after you, don't you?
Guess I like the thrill of it.
Who knew you had a wild side? He teased.
All due to you. You're the reason I'm like this now.
I like having a challenge.
And that's why you had me start walking on the wild side?
Is that bad?
I guess not. Strongarm giggled as she kept driving. Steeljaw followed after her through the forest. He was suddenly reminded of their first race. Strongarm keeps driving through the woods trying to keep ahead of him. Steeljaw zigzagged around the trees trying to catch up. Losing your touch?
You'll see. He chuckled as he made a turn.
What? She asked looking into her mirror and seeing Steeljaw make a turn. Steeljaw floored it making his way past her. Slowly he made his way in front of her. Strongarm wanted to turn and go another way but there was no way, it was too narrow to turn around and go back. Steeljaw smirked as he transformed, quickly turning around with his arms spread out. Strongarm slammed on her brakes screeching to a halt, "Steeljaw, have you lost it!?"
"What? I thought you were going to transform like you did last time."
"You mean like this?" She says before she transforms and jumps over him. Steeljaw just smiled and chased after her.
What did I do the last time?
When I thought I had you cornered you jumped over me.
Oh, just like how I just did? She asked before she giggled.
Steeljaw chuckled, trying his best to keep up with her. It was odd seeing her with a tail but it made her look sexy. Strongarm keeps running through the woods, she makes a right turn going through the trees. Steeljaw was right behind her, hot on her tail. Suddenly her tail got under her feet and tripped her up. Steeljaw quickly caught her by the arm to keep her from falling.
They both went down and started rolling down a hill. Steeljaw pulled her in, wrapping his arms around her as they made their way down the hill. They landed on the bottom with him on top of her, "I really need to get the hang of walking and running with this tail."
"Yes. Are you okay?" He asked wincing a little.
"Yeah. Are you?"
"I'm alright," he assured.
"Well, you got me."
"I guess I did," he teased as he started rubbing and scratching her ears. She leans her helm into his touch, "Feels good?"
"Yes," she replies in a smutty whisper as she gives him a cute look, the sunshine is glimmering in her optics.
Steeljaw gave a throaty chuckle, "You are so beautiful," he whispered before kissing her passionately. Strongarm started blushing as she kissed him back. Steeljaw's servo started roaming over her body.
I hope you're not planning on having us do it right here in the open.
Why don't we find a place where we can continue this in private?
Why must these games always end in having sex?
I'm not sure but I like it.
Just this once, can we end a game without sex?
Yes. Steeljaw chuckled as he gave her a soft kiss on her forehelm.
"Thank you. As much as I enjoy it we don't need to do it all the time."
"I understand," Steeljaw says as he gets off of Strongarm and offers his servo to help her up. She took his servo and stood up. "Shall we head back?"
"I didn't say we had to head back."
"I know, but everything looks fine in this area. Unless you want to continue on the patrol."
"Actually, I had something else in mind," she said as she started walking back up the hill.
Steeljaw quickly followed after her, "What did you have in mind?"
"You'll see."
Steeljaw didn't say anything as he scanned through the radio stations, quickly finding their song. Their song started playing and Strongarm lost her footing and slid back down the hill right into him, her aft bumping into his interface panel. Steeljaw caught her as he slid back but kept his footing, "Are you okay?" He asked.
"Yeah," she replies feeling her faceplate heat up at the feeling of her aft pressed against his interface panel. Steeljaw's face also heated up as he held her close, "We should get going," she tells him as she tries to get out of his hold.
"You're right," he says as he releases her. They continued walking up the hill and soon made it to the top. Strongarm went down to the ground pulling him down on top of her, on her back, when she heard a noise, "What is it?" He whispered as his ears perked up for the sound.
"Humans," she whispered back to him, "Get down so they don't see you."
Steeljaw got low to the ground, keeping out of sight and the humans passed them. That was close.
Yes. You can get off me now.
But I like this position. He tells her as he wraps his arms around her, "I want to stay like this."
"Steeljaw, we need to get going."
"Alright," he says as he gets up. Strongarm got up as Steeljaw walked past her, popping her aft playfully. She let out a small yelp. Steeljaw glanced at her with a playful smile and Strongarm punched him in the arm. Steeljaw winced at the punch, chuckling through the pain. Strongarm just walked on.
"You still live up to your name," he chuckled as he followed her.
"Of course. You still want to head back?"
"Why don't we enjoy this beautiful day before we head back?"
"I agree, I actually want us to go to that one cliffside where you took me that one time."
"That sounds like fun. Do you remember which way to go?"
Strongarm stops and turns to look at him, "You mean you forgot?"
"No, did you?"
"No," she says as she continues walking. Steeljaw followed after her. She went right to the cliff, "Remember when we were last here?"
Steeljaw wrapped his tail around hers, "How can I forget? This was where I played our song for the first time," he replied as he held her servo.
"Yeah, it was," she said with a chuckle. He gently rubbed their helms together, happy to be with her and to have her as his mate. Steeljaw intertwined their tails together as he enjoyed the view. Strongarm leaned against his body as she too enjoyed the view.
After sitting there enjoying the view for some time, Strongarm speaks up, "We should head back now."
"Yeah, we should. Don't want them to start worrying because we didn't return at the time we were supposed to."
Strongarm nodded in agreement as she started walking and he followed close behind her, intertwining their tails as they walked. Strongarm giggled, "You love intertwining our tails together."
"And I'll do it as often as I can. But I prefer wrapping it around your waist," he chuckled as he moved his tail to her waist.
Strongarm just chuckled, "Actually, I much prefer that as well."
They get back to the scrapyard and get greeted by their son Nightback, "Mom, Dad, you're back! Have a nice patrol?"
"We did, and no there were no Decepticons," Steeljaw replied as he rubbed his son's helm.
