The moment the femme predacon emerged from the tube, Shockwave cared for her and had the mindset of getting her adjusted before even looking in the general direction of Predaking. The eager male waited with anticipation to meet her, but Megatron had other ideas.

He brought Predaking to the caves of Shockwave's off-site lab but in another cavern. Shockwave, doing as told brought her as well, leading her inside the cavern, there was enough space for 20 predacons. The two sat there, Predaking was a little unpleased that she was as small as she was but she stared at him, a little shocked to see another one of her kind that wasn't in a test tube. He stepped towards her making her flinch and optics narrow taking defensive precautions as she looked at him.

Shockwave told her to make nice though..

She stood there when he screeched, barring his sharp dentas, slowly warming to idea of having this male predacon around.

"Predaking, this will be your mate, (y/n)." Megatron said

"Her vitals are detecting slight attraction, though.. Predaking's attraction towards her is a little lower than I expected."

"Please, they might as well kill each other now." Starscream scoffed watching the 2, Predaking screeched and walked around staring as (y/n) just laid there. She didn't show too much interest in him and the lack of attention made Predaking angry as he screeched and growled, charging towards her and snapping at her exposed underbelly making her screech back and stand up, attacking back at him as they snapped at each other's throats, fighting roughly

"My liege, we must contain this." Shockwave said

"Indeed. Predaking! That is enough!"

He snapped at her once more before backing down as she backed away towards Shockwave and screeched

"I suppose mating isn't an option anymore.." Starscream muttered "They'd just be at each other's throats."

To Megatron's dismay he ordered Shockwave to continue the cloning process even though it takes a longer time.

Over the last week (y/n) had been kept on the Nemesis, and had Predaking keep her company from time to time but not long enough to provoke a fight.

But Megatron placed them in the same room on the flight deck, big enough to hold both predacons. They laid there for awhile until Predaking got up and almost forced himself upon (y/n) as she screeched and snapped at him, clawing at his chassis as her tail flailed smacking at his feet, becoming angry at Predaking.

But Shockwave walked in "Predaking, enough."

Heeding him, he got off as she turned upright and glared at him before retreating behind Shockwave, growling at Predaking.

"He has become increasingly forceful, that was the third time I found him forcing himself upon (y/n) this week." Shockwave told Megatron

What if we were to sedate, y/n and allow him to mate?" Megatron asked

"She may accept him.. since once predacons have young they stick together to help them grow.. though on the other servo she may try to harm herself to get rid of them." Shockwave explained

"I'm willing to take the chance.." He grumbled

Shockwave scrapped up a strong sedative for y/n as he went over to her awhile later only to find her panting, her vents whirring hard as she made a small scuffling noise in pain.

"What's wrong with it now?" Starscream grumbled folding his arms

"Her heating cycle has activated.." Shockwave said bluntly

Starscream was quick to leave as Shockwave went to retrieve Predaking.

Once closer Predaking ran, undoubtedly smelling her cycle as she laid there with a throaty groan. Shockwave remained there incase they started to fight.

Predaking instinctively mounted her, licking her neck as Y/n screeched at him almost sounding impatient. Shockwave heard Predakings panel click back and took his cue to leave and allow them to mate, returning to his lab to watch from there, observing their behaviors as Y/n roared out when Predaking plunged his length into her.

Soon her claws were digging into the ground as she went still, letting him breed. Though the sounds she made let Shockwave know she enjoyed it. The two went round for round that night, completing 7 whole rounds of non-stop fragging. Shockwave found that odd but went out to see them as y/n was sound asleep, curled up beside Predaking, his tail and neck curled around her a bit protectively.

They were probably both exhausted from what Shockwave observed he expected Predaking to collapse around round 3 but he didn't. He wondered if it was y/n's cycle that drove him further.

"Intersting.." the cyclops said before heading back to his lab.

Over the next couple weeks Shockwave watched over y/n's progress, she was indeed pregnant. But of course she had to of been since they had fragged every night since her cycle and she was most fertile.

Though they then found their bipedal mode...

Predaking had y/n pressed against the wall as she growled, her legs latched around him "plunge that big thick spike into me til I can't walk.." she rumbled needily, clawing his chassis.

Starscream found it repulsive when he ran into the two dirty talking each other or going into detail of what they planned to do. It made him shudder.

Megatron found it best to leave the beasts to breed whenever. Given they've lost many vehicons trying to break them up before. Megatron advised others to just turn and walk away.

It was animalistic, it didn't matter how many times they talked to them even when calm, everything was thrown out the door once the mood was set.

Y/n laid there once her first term began to kick in, she was weak as Shockwave sat beside her, stroking her helm gently when she rested it in his lap.

She made a gentle growl if she had enough and to signal him to stop or when to start petting, sometimes indecisive but shockwave didnt mind her being picky. Soon she groaned a bit, screeching softly up to him.

Shockwave took his cue as he got up and went to grab her some energon.

Predaking snuck in as Shockwave left, he crouched down to her in bot mode "how are you, sweetspark?"

She gave a gentle growl that translated to something like "go away, this is all your fault."

Predaking looked over her and huffed "it is not... you were in heat."

She snapped at him with another irritated growl of "leave me the frag alone"

Predaking growled and grumbled at his grumpy queen but knew it was the sparklings making her moody. They werent quite sure how many there were but the normal batch is around 8 but given y/n's size, it'll be more like 5, if that.

Shockwave gently shooed Predaking when he came back with 3 energon cubes knowing her craving and need for more energon was high. Predaking grumbled but did so, leaving him alone as he placed the energon cubes down and opened them allowing y/n to lap up the energon from the cubes. It was recommended she remaining in beast mode and y/n hated it because sometimes the energon would run out through the small cracks of her mouth, half tempted to transform but also found no motivation as she continued to drink up til it was all gone, going back to relaxing as Shockwave proceeded to stroke her head some more before being called out and letting Predaking take his place in caring for his queen.

Boy would this be a long term..
