Ratchet's POV: (At last LOL)
My audio receptors cannot be correct. Did Optimus just agree to Megatron? The blurred figure of Optimus sits on his knees, his wrists bound, and glares up at Megatron with pained but angry optics. Wait-- blurred? My sight is coming back! Knockout was wrong. I think, and Megatron's grip on the back of my neck tightens a bit, and I almost yelp in pain. What I did do is a small whimper, and Optimus notices.
"Release him, you have gotten what you wanted." The Prime states slowly and cautiously, his optics keep flickering down to me as if to make certain I was okay.
"Ravage, fall back. Tell the Autobots we will meet at sunrise at a location; Soundwave will send the coordinates." Megatron says over the com link as he releases me, and I shakily walk/desperately speedwalk over to Optimus to check his wounds.
"Ratchet... you can see." He murmurs when I crouch down beside him.
"Knockout appears to be off on the blind state's course." I reply shortly, and almost gasp when I see the long gash marks down his back. I know my wounds are worse, but I can't bear it happening to Optimus.
"Are you alright?" He asks me, with a concerned faceplate expression.
"I'm fine, but did you really give it up?" Anger heats my spark. Why would he agree?
"I couldn't let him kill you." Optimus shakes his helm, and shifts into a comfortable position.
Passion replaces the anger in my spark when I hear the words from Optimus. I slightly nod and start patching up the wounds with my built in flare I have in my arm. This is gonna be rough.

Emma's POV:
(Back at base)
The sparkling is just the prettiest, she has a shiny white paintjob with malachite detailing, a mixture of Ratchet and Ultra Malachite, but she has Malachite's shining red optics. She squirms a bit and giggles in her mother's arms, and, still in beast mode, I lean forward to sniff her. She touches my muzzle and giggles again. Happy child. Is everyone sure she's related to Ratchet?
"Isn't she just the cutest?" Everence smiles, seeming to forget we have a meeting with Megapuss tomorrow.
:: Awww, look at that. Ratchet would be so proud...:: Bumblebee beeps.
Bulkhead nods, also staring at the squirmy little sparkling. "What's her name?"
Malachite sighs, her optics filling with pain. "Ratchet and I agreed if it was a femme, her name would be Mithra."
I lean in closer. "You'll meet your father, I promise." But no one can understand, I'm still in my beast mode. "Optimus won't let anything happen to him, and neither will I."
