The Flaming Emissary

Chapter 12

Two weeks had passed and nothing had changed but merely the growth of little Reiscorn had increased. Vigor was out on patrol while TrailFire and young Reiscorn were watching over the egg, Reiscorn recharged near his carrier as she watched the both of them. Until the egg shook, Trailfire perked her helm up from the commotion. She nudged reiscorn resulting him with his optics half lit in tiredness noticing the reason for his disturbance of his recharge, he walked beside his carrier to meet the emerging sparkling. 

Reiscorn heard large wing beats from the outside of the entrance, his sire came rushing in overjoyed of receiving a comm from his conjunx of the news. 

"Is it actually time Sweetspark?!" Vigor asked settling next to Trailfire. Reiscorn sat excitedly awaiting the arrival of his new younger sibling. "I will finally have someone to play with!!" Reiscorn exclaimed cheerfully. 

"Yes you will, but you will need to be cautious around it, it is still younger so it will not measure to the same strength as yours Reiscorn. You will need to be careful, until it is old enough you both will train. But till then live life to the fullest enjoying each others company understood Reiscorn?" Vigor explained to the excited young sparkling.

"I understand Sire" Reiscorn acknowledged nodding his helm.

The egg shook more until cracking was heard and a small hole was punctured through, a bright yellow optic was seen shining through it. 

"Hmm, it has yours optic color as yours and Reiscorn." Trailfire confirmed a little saddened that none of her offspring had taken the trait of her blue optics. Vigor noticed her disappointment and nuzzled into her neck cabling purring, "It is alright Sweetspark, not everything has to go according to what we prayed to Primus for. Be blessed it made it through to see with those optics a world of love and a choice to see what Primus created." 

"Yes, you are right once again my love." Trailfire nuzzled back in return for his affection and wisdom. 

The egg cracked more and more and finally a head popped out from the top, it struggled pushing the rest of its frame out but still managed to climb out. It optics were half sealed as a small glow crept out under, Trailfire leaned forward and licked away the remains of the seal. 

It was brown with small pieces of grey spines and frills here and there as some yellow highlights were placed and it had large wings as its sire. Most of its frame was identical to Vigor but his color scheme was switched around mixed up, it cried out for its carrier.

"I'm here little one, no need to cry. Hmm, indeed it is a mech as Prima foretold."Trailfire examined her newborn, she turned her attention to Vigor, "We must follow his word as Prima stated, his designation will be Dragotron. Though I can't wait to see you grow into what is prophesied; my future Lord of the Legion of Predacons." Trailfire snuggled against little Dragotron. 

"Indeed my sweet, yes indeed. Well, now that our second sparkling is born I must head out as I promised Prima I would." Vigor went over to their shared quarters gathering prototype inventions and a few documents, and came out hustling toward the entrance. He stopped then turned around and gave a peck on Trailfire's cheek, "I love you, I will return soon from my duties as always my dear."

Vigor walked out and flew off to the Primes first stationed settlements; Crystal City. Trailfire grabbed little Dragotron by his soft plates behind his helm, Reiscorn curled up against his carriers frame as she placed Dragotron beside him. They curled up all together falling into recharge, Vigor flew with his reports and material assigned by his Lord and fellow Primes.

A month had passed of Vigors absence, his duties had again taken his attention from the responsibilities of being a sire to his young. Reiscorn grew larger as did his younger brother Dragotron, they played while their carrier went out for supplies.
