Orion: " Mother, Father. NO."

General Narration

Shadow: "EARTH TO OPTIMUS FOR PRIMUS SAKE."

Optimus: "Huh? What?"

Ratchet: "Optimus are you alright? Shadow called your name five times and you didn't answer. Is there something on your mind."

Optimus: "Uhh no old friend I'm fine. Just a flashback."

Shadow: "Of what?"

Optimus: "I do not wish to speak of it my love."

Shadow: "O-Okay. Anyway as I was saying thought you weren't listening we've detected another autobot emergency becon."

Optimus: "Uh of course."

Ratchet: "I belive it is another Iacon relic."

Optimus: "BloodClaw, Razor-Blade, Arcee, Night Bird, and Bumblebee investigate. If it comes to a battle contact us immediately. Good luck."

Optimus closed his optics and sighed. He went to the back alone with many things on his mind. Shadow looked until he was down the hall and made a turn. I turned to Ratchet who quickly looled away and went back to the computers. It then hit Shadow that Ratchet new something.

Orion: "What's wrong with dad, mom?"

Shadow: "I dont know. He's been awfully quiet today. I'll go talk to him."

Shadow headed in Optimus's direction until she heard gun shots ahead. She ran to the sound of the gun shots. She saw Optimus target practicing. He then was beating the dummies and slicing them in half.

Optimus: "Are just going to stand there or do something my love?"

Shadow: "What gave me away?"

Optimus: "Your energy."

Shadow: "Seriously?"

Optimus: "Indeed."

Shadow: "Optimus what's wrong you've been too quiet?"

Optimus: "I am a Prime and I keep things to myself. Before I met you that was all I ever did was stay quiet"

Shadow: "What are you trying to say Optimus?"

Optimus looked at Shadow and walked over to her. He placed a hand around her waist and pulled her for a passionate kiss upon her lips. He pulled away but still held her close.

Optimus: "Shadow I love you with all my spark. What I'm saying is that I wouldn't be the bot I am now if it weren't for you. I'm happy to have and to hold you as a sparkmate and that we have two beautiful children. I can't thank you enough."

Shadow smiled as Optimus placed a cervo on the side of her faceplate. She placed her cervo over his and gave in to the touch.

Shadow: "No honey it should be me who should be thanking you. You took me away from a horrible life and gave me a new one. But you didn't answer my question."

Optimus sighed and looked down. He then looked up as Shadow saw a small tear fall from his optic.

Optimus: "Nothing it's just that today is the day I lost my parents so long ago. And I'm not too active on this day."

Shadow: "Oh Optimus I'm so sorry. I-I didn't know.

Optimus: "It's alright."

Shadow: "What were their designations?"

Optimus: "My mother. Kaylana Mistress of Strength. My father. Silo Lord of Power. They died in battle. In front of my sibling and me."

Shadow: "You had a sibling?"

Optimus: "Yes her name was Athena Pax. I sent her to a safe place during the war. When I returned for her she was nowhere to be found. I haven't seen her since."

Shadow placed her cervo over her chest feeling the pain her sparkmate was going through. She placed her other cervo on the side of his faceplate, wiping away the tear with her digit. He looked at her as she sent a wave of comfort through the bond. She smiled and placed a kiss on his cheek.

Shadow: "As long as you remember what they were like what they taught you, they always remain in your spark."

Shadow placed a cervo over Optimus's chestplate as he placed his over her slightly smaller one. He smiled and nodded as he took her cervo away from his chestplate and raised it to his lips placing a sweet and gentle kiss on it. He then let go and held her close as he burried his faceplate into her neck. She rubbed his helm softly as she hummed a tune to him.

Optimus: "You always know how to make others feel better in the oddest ways. You are completely more than meets the eye."

Shadow: "Haha. I know. Back when I was human I was really good at that."

Silo: "Alright coming dear. Orion, Athena come on it is time for our meal."

Orion: "Coming Father."

My sister and I went over to our parents as they welcomed us with open arms. My mother embraced me while my father embraced my sister as he held my mother close. It was a happy moment for me and my family.
