"Knockout was accurate." Ratchet muttered, slightly saddened. "I could remove it." He suggested.

Optimus and I let out a squeak in protest, "Knockout suggested I wait." I pointed out, "And it would be weird for Knockout if it was gone all of a sudden." I added.

"So Knockout and Breakdown know?" Op asked.

"Breakdown knows you're the Sire, Knockout doesn't." I explained.

The atmosphere became a sad one, "You know, normally when someone is sparked, it's a reason for celebration." I started.

"Maybe we could have a little party?" Alphy suggested.

"A goodbye party?" Ratchet suggested and the chicks started biting his peds, with some occasional flame.

I think we spent half an hour grieving for an unborn sparkling.

"Soo..." Ratchet started, "How's the courting going?" He asked, trying to lighten the mood. "And how'd that start?"

"We got drunk." I said and Optimus nodded before casting a hesitant glance at his mentor. He was frowning. "Then we were sober, talked about it and well, here we are."

"And it's going well." Op added.

"So you're basically Megatron's brother in law?" Ratch asked.

"Oh Primus." Optimus looked utterly terrified now. "What if he finds out about the, you know?" He looked at me.

I shrugged, "Haven't told him, anything."

"Mmm." Optimus said, lost in thought.

"But that would go badly." I added, "Maybe a night or two in a cell." I shrugged and noticed Ratchet glaring at Op.

"What?" He asked.

"You have made terrible choices." Ratchet said and Alpha Trion nodded along.

"But-"

"My fault, he's terrible with peer pressure." I excused him.

"Are you going to tell the others?" Ratchet asked. We glared at him as if he were crazy. "Right, bad idea."

"It would have a negative moral effect." Trion agreed as he picked up the chicks.

Then I got a message from my brother, he wanted to see me. "Meg wants me." I stated and grabbed Optimus, leading him away from the toxic atmosphere.

"Now?" He asked as we got outside.

"Yea." I said as the chickens followed us. "Look, if things go bad, would you be okay if it were removed?" I asked.

"Well, it would be better to have less casualties." He agreed sadly.

"Yea, next time, I'll just get you sparked." I grinned, trying to lighten the mood.

"Or not at all!" Ratchet shouted from inside.

Optimus nodded slightly. "But hey, we have the chickens." I added, "They're enough sparkling's for all of us." I grinned.

They're MINE. Egg stated in an icy tone.

"I know." I said and let the chickens in my chassis, "So I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Perhaps it's best if you get some rest." Optimus suggested and poked my faceplate. "Your optics are puffy."

"It's been an emotional day." I said and hugged him and got another message from my brother, "And Meg wants me." I added.

"Why's he so possessive?" Oppy asked as he let me go.

I shrugged, "See you soon." I said and flew off. The flight was short as another ground bridge popped up, I flew threw and crashed into a wall.

"Careful!" Meg yelped and helped me up.

"Since when were you so caring?" I asked.

"Since you almost died." He argued and we walked.

"Not 'almost', I did die."

"That's the problem, so you are going to rest." He stated, I opened my intake to argue but he shot me down, "You can do that in the cells if you want."

"No, rest sounds good." I nodded, the lie barely making it through my dentas.

"Good." He said, "And since you can walk just fine, you won't need my help making it to your berthroom."

"Yea yea." I grumbled and strolled off to my berthroom.

Well that was nice of him? Egg asked in question.

"I don't know either." I said and let them out as I entered my berthroom. Breakdown was already there.

"Afternoon." He greeted.

"What are you doing here?" I asked as I got some regular energon and poured it into the chicken's bowls.

"Checking on you, you went on a flight?" He asked, rather worried.

"Yup."

"Why would you do that?" He asked in panic, "Take some of your sparky stuff." He demanded.

I did so.

"Better?"

"I don't feel any different." I shrugged and put it away.

"Mmm hmm. So... where did you fly?" He asked as I sat on my berth. I glared at him, did he even have to ask. "Right..." He started, "How did that go?"

"Optimus was sad and Ratchet and Alpha Trion were angry at him." I said.

"Alpha Trion's dead." Breakdown noted.

"Oh yeah, I meant he's angry at him, you know, from the Allspark." I quickly added.

"Ah ha." Breakdown nodded.

"Mmm hmm." I nodded awkwardly.

"Knockout's coming in to do some scans." Breakdown added and the chickens waddled over to their hatch. "They're very organised." Breakdown noted.

"Yeah well, don't want that to happen again."

"Don't want what to happen again?"

"Megatron discovered her and hurt her." I explained.

"Aft." Breakdown muttered as Knockout walked in.

"Who's the 'aft'?" He asked.

"Meg." I said.

"Why?"

Breakdown and I exchanged glance.

"Did he get you sparked?!?!" Knockout said in utter shock.

"He's my brother!" I said utterly disgusted.

"Well, that hasn't stopped some mechs before." KO argued and got out a scanner, "Anyway, who's the sire?" He asked.

Breakdown and I exchanged glances.

"I'm going to assume it's not a Decepticon." He said.

"Yeah, it's a Autobot." I nodded.

"Well, that's what I was implying." Knockout snorted, "So come on, who would want to frag Meg's look-alike?"

Wait, what if he only fragged me cause he wanted to frag Meg? Why would he want to do that? Well, they were palls... I blinked, nah that was just my hormones going off.

"Well?" Knockout asked. "Oh yeah, won't tell, swear on my spark." He put his servo over his spotless chassis.

"Cool, I fragged Optimus." I said, "He's the sire."

Knockout blinked and snickered. "And here I was thinking he was a virgin." He muttered before he started scanning my chassis.
