   Summary

   What if Megatron was part of the High Guard?
   Megatron, Captain of the High Guard and reigning Champion in the pits of Kaon, gets assigned to work for Prima Prime - He has a new, shiny prospect who needs a Guard, and who better to protect them than the relentless, fearless Megatron?

   The job is simple: protect Prima's prospect from harm.
   Easy enough since the peace treaty was signed with the Quintessans; the largest threat to Prima's precious prospect would be whatever paperwork the Prime's decide to throw at them...
   Megatron expects to be bored to tears by this assignment... but when he finally meets with the prospect he quickly realizes why they need protection.

   It's not so much protection from others that's needed, but more so protection from themselves - to Megatron's detriment.

   Orion Pax. Chaos-bringer. Troublemaker extraordinaire.
   Annoying little asshole who somehow knows exactly how to grind Megatron's gears.

   But no matter how hard Megatron tries, he can't help but enjoy Orion's company...
