A Seeker's Family 1

What would you do if I were sparked with your child?

It was one of those raids that were to lead the Decepticons into victory over the Autobots. However, like the many raids set out with the same goal, under the almighty leadership of Megatron, it ended in failure and a hasty retreat.

Starscream and his trine were following behind and not too far from their leader while Starscreamer complained how Megatron failed as a leader.

"Sceamer, have you ever thought of keeping that treacherous processor of yours under radar?" asked the black and purple seeker. "Or are you secretly masochistic?"

"Is there a glitch in your system, you slaghead?" retorted the trine leader as he kicked the other Seeker and made him lose balance in flying.

"Hey! Watch it!" exclaimed the dark Seeker putting a hand on his chassis as he regained balance and stopped midair.

"What? Are you starting to care for your paint job like one of those wretched Autobot twins?" snickered Starscream.

"None of your business," said Skywarp defensively as he started flying again to catch up to his trine.

"Screamer, leave him alone. You already got your fun from kicking him," said the calmer of the Seeker trine.

"Stop being so protective over him," said Starscream. "The others might think he's your weakness and that would be rather shameful."

"You fragger," whispered Skywarp as he glared at his trine leader before something hit him. Skywarp cried from agonized pain as the shot hit right at one of his wings and he was losing the ability to regain control from plummeting straight to the ground.

It was none other than the Autobot twins that spotted the three Seekers and engaged in shooting at them. Starscream stopped in his tracks thinking if he should help the falling Skywarp from his rather unreachable spot. However, he gave up on the idea as self preservation won him over and anyone can be replaced when they fell in the Decepticon army, it has always been that way.

"Aren't we going to help Skywarp? He might get killed if we don't help him," asked Thundercracker as he was hesitating between what he should do.

"Every Decepticon for themselves, Thundercracker," answered Starscream. "If you want to save him, be my guest but don't expect any help from me," as he pressed forward without falling behind.

Thundercracker stayed put as he watched his rather cold trine leader fly off. It was only until the sound of metal colliding with the ground that brought him out of his train of thought and he flew down to help his fellow Seeker.

Skywarp landed on the ground rather hard and he landed with his face hitting the ground first. The Autobot twins surrounded the fallen Seeker and told him to surrender, however Skywarp felt a stinging pain in his chassis and his body started to convulse on the ground from the pain.

"What do you think he's doing?" asked Sideswipe as he looked at Skywarp convulsing with his hand on his chassis.

"I don't know but it could be a 'Con trick," replied the yellow twin.

"I surrender...please help me," pleaded Skywarp as he tried to reach out.

"Um...Sunny...I don't remember ever firing at his chest...Didn't we hit his wing or something...," asked Sideswipe as he noticed some energon seeping through Skywarp's torso armor.

"Get away from him," roared Thundercracker as he rushed to Skywarp's side from the air before Skywarp cried out from agonizing pain.

"TC...," cried Skywarp as he reached out for his trine mate while clutching to his chassis.

"We've got to get Ratchet...This doesn't look like a regular injury...," replied Sideswipe as his bad feeling deepened.

"I'm on it," replied Sunstreaker as he spoke in his comm link to Optimus and Ratchet.

"Warp...What is wrong?" asked Thundercracker as he approached his trine mate while being very wary of the two Autobots with their weapons pointed at them.

"Our...My...sparkling...," replied Skywarp as he tried to formulate a coherent sentence before his optics went offline.

"Warp...! Answer me...," said Thundercracker as his trine mate fell unconscious in his arms.

"What did you two idiots do?" said a rather pissed off Ratchet as he approached their location behind their Prime. "Oh Primus...What did you do...?"

"We didn't do anything this time...," answered Sunstreaker in their defence. "He came crashing down face first and for what we know...we shot at his wings not his torso..."

"He said something about a sparkling before he went...offline...," answered the red twin. "You've got to take a look at him..."

"Then get out of my way!" said the cranky medic as he approached the two Seekers.

"Who are you? His sparkmate or something?"

"Ugh...no...," replied the blue Seeker as he looked at the red and white medic.

"Then get out of my way," said Ratchet as he pushed the blue Seeker aside.

The blue Seeker landed on his aft and stared at the medic. He gave the Autobot commander a look of confusion and wondered what he was suppose to do.

"Rest assured, Ratchet will be able to help," reassured Optimus as he saw how worried Thundercracker was. "Your mate would be fine."

"We're only trine mates," replied the blue Seeker as his wariness subsided with a worried expression on his faceplate.

"But what he said before he lost consciousness really suggested otherwise...," interrupted Sideswipe. "You sure there's nothing between the two of you?"

The question shook him up a little before Ratchet interrupted the conversation.

Thundercrack and Skywarp needs more love! So, I'm writting one for them!
