Well, look at this that interests me.one if elita one were alive and arrived or she was in the neutral ship as the only survivor... would she see her as her mother figure?

*Sighs deeply* The only reason that I am answering this question is because I feel like I did Elita-1 dirty in my one shot: making her a plot device for someone else character development, and...I've also thought about this scenario myself. Don't use this as an excuse to ask for other characters not in TFP! Remember the ground rules! THESE ARE THE GROUND RULES!!!! READ THEM!!!!!

In my very first AOP oneshot, I had a rouge end up killing Elita while in Megatron's grip which Soundwave was intercepting because they were aiming for Megatron. Instead of it being a fatal stab wound, it's a wound that ends up forcing Elita in a stasis lock to save her life. Optimus doesn't realize it and quickly goes after Megatron out of grief. Optimus gets knocked out by Soundwave, an explosion goes off, and Elita's body is lost in the chaos. By the time Optimus wakes up, she's gone. And Optimus assumes her body was destroyed.

Instead, someone managed to grab her when they realized she was in stasis lock and nursed her back to health as they flee the planet because Cybertron goes dark. Elita wakes up to the neutrals far away from the planet and begs for them to take her to an Autobot ship or something. She can't stand by and do nothing in this war, not after learning that the planet was destroyed. And Optimus, she doesn't know if he's alive or not. She needs a confirmation.

But before they could do anything, they get attacked by Decepticons, and the Decepticons unleash scraplets on the ship to tear it apart. The ship ends up falling and taken in by the AOT world's gravity as it heads for the island. The walls in the ship collapse and Elita is flung out by the force. The ship crashes on the island, and she crashes in the water close by.

Elita ends up pulling herself out and tries to locate the ship on her own. When she does, she's in horror to find it in ruins. She tries to find a way inside to at least help whoever was in there, but she pauses when she hears the agonizing screams of the neutrals, followed by the familiar chomping noises of the scraplets. Elita also found herself injured, leaking energon from the same wound she got in the first place. And she has no choice but to run and save herself.

She hates herself for that decision. It haunts her, but there was nothing that she could do. She tried to hold on to the hope that she could escape the island and this world to return to the war and avenge the fallen. But the world was so primitive and backwards. She had to be careful about getting parts from the outside of the ship to the best of her ability because of the scraplets. And...these lumbering creatures bothered her. She tried asking for help from them, but they had no real intelligence to speak of. They lumbered around with no real goal or real thought. She did notice the Walls, and approached, calling for help, but she was immediately met with cannon fire from primitive weapons. She couldn't risk getting injured and she had no choice but to run and hide. Her chances of leaving this world dwindled. Her hope dwindled, and she had no choice to do what she could to survive, for the next 20 years. She was all alone. She failed...and she can't live with herself because of it. It hurts her spark so much.

During the Next to Me OVA, Eren, Optimus, and Megatron clear out the titans on the island and within Wall Maria. As Optimus and Eren are working together, Eren notices something in titan form and goes to investigate. With Megatron's shield in hand, he manages to find a campsite with a dim fire place that was still quite large for a human. And there were...metal parts? Eren then grunted as someone jumped on his back and yanked his hair, ripping some of it off its scalp, Eren managed to grab the assailant and threw them off, but she landed on her feet with grace. And Eren's stunned to see that it's a Cybertronian with faded pink armor. She looked so exhausted, but she still attacked anyway. She drew out her sword from her back and charged, and Eren did his best to block and defend. He didn't know how to try and reason with her, but damn it, she was going to kill him!

Optimus heard Eren let out a cry in panic, followed by him getting knocked several feet backwards. He skidded on his back and groaned in pain and Optimus quickly got in front of him. Optimus is surprised to find that the assailant is a Cybertronian, and assumes she is a survivor of the neutral ship. Maybe she could be reasoned with. However, Optimus noticed the sword she's holding, and his spark completely stops. That's...that can't be. Eren doesn't realize Optimus' distress and quickly gets up, and she see it and quickly goes for Eren. Optimus then pushes Eren out of the way and takes the full brunt of the Cybertronian's attack. They are rolling across the ground in a heated tussle, and Eren is prepared to attack, but is surprised to find that the woman was on top of Optimus. She was attacking, trying to kill him with her sword, but Optimus knocked it out of her hands. She then pulled out her blasters and fired, but Optimus redirected her blaster away from his head. Optimus didn't attack. He didn't want to kill her. Eren then heard Optimus calling her by a name and begging her to stop. "Elita-1" Wait, they know each other?

But she wasn't stopping, she was being relentless. And Optimus was desperate. By the Allspark, he didn't want to hurt her. He took a gamble that he wasn't sure was going to work, and...

"Ariel, stop!" Optimus pleaded with her as he grabbed and held her wrists to force her to stop.

Eren saw that the Cybertronian froze at that name. She stopped trying to attack and take Optimus' head off. She quickly snatched her hands back from his grasp and stumbled backwards onto her rear, allowing Optimus to sit up and face her. She eyed him with suspicion and doubt, but Optimus removed his mask, and Eren could tell that the woman's heart stopped. Eren turned his gaze to Optimus, and recognized that Optimus had that stare dumbstruck stare that she had. Almost as if...the two were looking at ghosts. Long forgotten ghosts.

"It is me," Optimus spoke to her in a whisper, "My conjux endura. It is me."

Eren had no idea what that word mean, or even what was going on. What...who was she? Eren grew tense as she reached her hand out towards the Prime and touched his face. But the Prime did not back away. He leaned into that touch, cradling her hand into his own, treasuring that simple act of affection. Before Eren knew it, both had embraced each other so tightly that it looked like they were never going to let go. They still looked like they were in disbelief. That this was all surreal and a figment of their imagination. They looked so...afraid that it was going to be a lie.

Eren heard a familiar jet engine and looked up to see Megatron approaching them and landing right next to him.

"What happened?" Megatron demanded. Eren pointed to the scene, and Eren was shocked to see Megatron freeze at the sight. It was almost as if he was seeing a ghost as well. He also looked...worried. Eren saw the woman open her eyes and see Megatron, causing her to rip herself from Optimus' grip and aim her blaster directly at Megatron. Eren quickly got in front of Megatron to protect him with the shield, but Optimus quickly grabbed her arm and lowered it while also forcing her to look him in the eye.

"Elita, you are safe, I promise you." Optimus swore, "They are my allies and the war is over. The Autobots won, Cybertron is restored. Please lower your weapon."

"I can't," Elita seethed in anger, "He's still-!"

"Please, I just found you again," Optimus begged her, and Eren can see the heart break and desperation on his face, "I refuse to loose you a second time. Lower your weapon, please. Let me take you some place safe. Trust me."

Elita could only glare at Megatron in anger, but the trusting and fearful look Optimus had in his optics, made her question her decision. She ultimately decided to trust his decision and lowered her weapon.

Elita is still completely tired and exhausted after all this new information and everything else. And Optimus recognizes it and carries Elita on his back. She wraps her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, and tells the two that they need to go back to the walls. Megatron orders Eren to stay in front with him, and Eren makes the good call of not questioning the decision. Megatron and Eren walk in front together, Optimus is behind them with Elita on his back. Optimus manages to grab her sword and hands it back to Elita, who's now holding it tight in her grip as they walk back to the walls. Eren can't help but notice the sheer tension in Megatron's body and the disbelief and remorse etched on his face, along with that expression of...fear. Eren looked back to see Elita glaring at them both and quickly straightened out his back and looked ahead.

When they arrive back at the walls, oh shit the pandemonium. The Survey Corps are just shocked to see Optimus carrying Elita on his back when they enter, and then immediately bombard them with questions. But Optimus can't answer. He can only ask Hanji to help find a place for Elita to rest. And Hanji can only comply because she notices how exhausted Elita looks, still holding onto her sword and eyeing the humans with caution. God, she looked so tense. She hasn't even said a word.

But the Survey Corps notice just how tense everything is. Because Elita looks exhausted. Optimus is running on autopilot at this point and refuses to put Elita down. Eren is just confused and very nervous around the newcomer and Megatron fucking looks scared. It's a whole thing.

Hanji manages to get a cave for the both of them because that's the best that she can do on short notice, and Optimus tells her that she's going to stay by her side as she rests. And Hanji realizes there's no room for debate, something is clearly up and she leaves them alone. And when they are alone, the two...there's so much to say, but they don't know how to get it out. The fear, the sorrow, the pain, the happiness, joy, guilt, everything! The only thing that they can really do is cling to each other and cry, refusing to let each other go, deciding to explain everything to each other later. Right now, they just need this.

And now the Survey Corps are just bombarding Eren with questions because Megatron just fucking left again, claiming he was going to continue getting rid of the titans on the island. And Eren is just as confused as everyone else.

"I don't know!" Eren yelled, "She attacked me, then Optimus. Then Optimus called her 'Elita'-!"

And what no one expects: Mikasa spits out her water and Levi drops his teacup in shock. Mikasa's now on the ground, coughing up the water that got into her airway while Levi is just frozen in place.

"Uh, Levi, there something you wanna tell us?" Hanji snapped her fingers in his face.

Levi mumbled something that Hanji couldn't hear.

"Eren, I think you broke him," Hanji commented.

"Hanji, that's his fucking girlfriend!" Levi shouted at her, grabbing her collar in the process.

The room was so silent that a pin drop could be heard.

"WWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTT?!"

Meanwhile, Ymir and Historia are awakened by the sound of screaming from their bed after they had make-up sex.

"Do you hear that?" Ymir asked.

"It can wait until the morning," Historia grumbled, snuggling closer to Ymir.

(Maybe I might continue this. I don't know it depends.)
