Sterling ran out in the open and a few minutes later a green portal opened and the Ratchet, Arcee, and Bumblebee walked out. Sterling ran and they followed.

"Stop!" Sterling stopped and Arcee and Bumblebee drew their blasters.

"Don't hurt me!" She covered her face.

"Who are you?" asked the medic.

"I'm Sterling. I have information on Orion!"

"You do?"

"Yeah. He's been my friend since he came. He's sparked!"

"Sparked?!"

"Megatron sparked him as part of a plan to have an army!" Sterling held out the data pads to Ratchet.

"Why are you telling us this?"

"I don't want the sparklings to be used as soldiers."

"Sparklings?"

"Orion is sparked with twins! Megatron knocked him out and sparked him! It's all on those data pads. I wrote everything down and kept it from my creators. You have to get Orion back! I don't want Megatron to take them!"

"Why would you care?"

"Because I like sparklings and I want those two to have a good life! I'm not evil right now. But I know that I probably will be when I get older. Please just do it now."

About a Month Later

"Well Optimus it seems everything is in working order."

"What of the sparklings?" Optimus put his servo over his abdomen.

"They're perfectly fine. One's a little small but everything else is fine." Optimus nodded and rubbed his abdomen.

"Optimus you aren't going to keep them are you?" asked Arcee, "It's not too late to abort them according to Ratchet." The Prime's optics widened and he stared at Arcee.

"What?" Optimus' stare turned into a frown and he stood up, placing a servo on his back, sounding very upset and very disappointed

" Arcee I do not intend to end my sparklings' lives. They're innocent sparks who have not yet been given a chance to live in this world yet."

"But they're Megatron's sparklings and they were forced on you!" Optimus' voice seemed to fill with sadness.

"They're not just Megatron's sparklings, Arcee. They are my own spark and energon as well. Not Just Megatron's."

"Optimus they're Megatron's fragging pit spawn! We're at war with him!" Optimus' optics welled slightly with tears and he walked quickly out of the room and to his quarters.

When he reached his quarters he finally let tears fall. The Prime sobbed quietly and wrapped his arms around his small bump. Both of the sparklings felt his sadness and sent sad feelings back to him. He rubbed his bump gently with his thumb.

"P-Please don't be sad my dears..." he mumbled.

"I love you both very much and I would never let any kind of harm come to you." He sat down on his berth and tried to stop the tears from falling.

-In the Main room-

"Arcee it was not place to say those things to Optimus!" yelled Ratchet, throwing a wrench at her helm in the process.

"He should get rid of them! They'll get in the way and they're Megatron's pit spawn!"

"Arcee why are you being so mean?! It's Optimus' choice not yours!" said Bulkhead. Ratchet hit her with the wrench.

"I'm going to go check on Optimus," Ratchet said, grabbing two med-grade energon cubes and walking down the hall.

-With Optimus-

The blue and red Autobot leader was leaning against the wall, still crying softly. There was a knock on the door.

"Come in..." he said quietly. Ratchet opened the door and looked at him.

"Optimus..." The medic walked over and sat the two cubes on his desk then sat on the berth beside Optimus. He looked at the Prime's tear stained face.

"You shouldn't take what Arcee said too hard. It's not her decision. It's yours." Optimus' optics didn't meet Ratchet's. The Prime was absent-mindedly rubbing his thumb over his bump. Ratchet gently placed a servo on Prime's shoulder. Optimus flinched slightly. He frowned and grabbed one of the energon cubes.

"Here Optimus." He placed it in Optimus' empty servo.

"Fill up. All 3 of you will need it." Optimus started to drink the energon cube. After Optimus finished will both cubes he fell into recharge. Ratchet pulled the blanket at the end of the berth over the Prime's frame, turned off the light, and left.


Hey guys. I know I haven't worked on this story for a while. I've been re-writing it. It was really crappy before and I'm trying to make it better. I'll be re-writing the 2nd chapter as well and adding a new chapter.
