Warning: this chapter does contain subject matters such as sibling rivalry and real life scenarios of inner turmoil, please read with care if you are sensitive to this kind of stuff, you have been warned.Eight solar cycles have passed and everyone was buzzing around the ship with smiles on their faces as the news spreaded like wild scraplets throughout the entire ship of finally be able to go home, after eons of years of endless blood shed and tears both good and bad officially join together to bring cybertron back to life. But there are the thoughts of the past coming back to destroy the distant future, it is going to take a very long time before long lost autobots and decepticons warriors to forgive each other after many years of war, difficult it will be but happiness we shall find. Despite everything that has happened the leaders were pretty sure that cybertron will slowly re-populate in time and things will go back to the way it was before, as long as mutual befits were involved.
Megatron yawned for the third this morning as he didn't get much sleep, because young phantom has been growing up rapidly throughout these few weeks and is now the full size of a toddler, meaning that his sire has to carry him with both servos and the young mech has been learning how to speak. As great as that is phantom has been keeping up his sire for most of the nights with unintelligible words, megatron has been warned about this from starscream and arcee but he didn't think that it would be this annoying. Luckily megatron hasn't lost his cool yet as being a parent, but he feels like his pride is slowly seeping away though but he doesn't care because that's the price for being an awesome sire.
The grey mech stretched out his limps and slowly got out of his huge berth then walked over to phantom's cradle to find that he was already awake and is playing with the large white teddy bear, he was given it from the twins a while ago. Once phantom saw his sire he raised up his disproportionate arms to be begin the morning schedules (A/n: right arm thin, left arm bulky, kinda like shockwave but with two servos and one optic) megatron softly smiled and learned down to pick him up then phantom reached out for the teddy bear and the grey mech grabbed the toy then gave it to baby cyclops and made their way out of the room, on the activities list for today was to look for more energon mines, he and optimus thought that it would be wise to collect the remaining energon off of this planet, then work on more future plans with optimus and ultra Magnus, captain shoulder pads still doesn't trust him but he knew Magnus never will because of obvious reasons.
After when all four keys were found the doctors/scientists still have no idea on how to activate them, even optimus doesn't know so for the past couple of days ratchet and knockout have been trying to figure it out, so far nothing has worked but they will not give up. During the mean time the leaders are preparing for the future little by little, although megatron wouldn't mind to have a holiday every now and then with his son, he was thinking that maybe in the afternoon they can go out for a midnight flight and try to figure out what phantom can turn into, will he be a helicopter or a tank? Who knows maybe he'll be a triple chaanger but that's extremely rare to be born with that ability, normally cybertronians would get surgery to do that.
"*yawn* oh my, I didn't think that you'll be this vocal once you got to this age phantom, but I can't wait to hear you're first word or even yet you're first sentence" megatron said to phantom who was tightly hugging his toy, the gladiator couldn't help but to smile softly again until he saw dreadwing walking towards them.
"Lord megatron soundwave has located a new energon mine in a continent called Africa, we are heading that way now and are waiting for your orders toe send out the troops" dreadwing explained in a stern voice.
"Excellent dreadwing, how much energon have we mined from this planet so far?" Megatron asked while adjusting the small mech in his arms, for such a small bot phantom has a lot of energy to spend as the purple mech bounced the bear high in the air, dreadwing tried so hard to not look at him as he searched through a data pad to find the results to his leader's question.
"So far we minded about seventy point eight-five percent of this planet and it is getting harder to locate any more veins because-" as the first lieutenant was talking, phantom had accidentally dropped his bear on the floor and dreadwing picked it up immediately and handed it to the pouting sparkling, phantom giggled and embraced the teddy with his right arm while holding onto one of dreadwing's digits with the other. The lieutenant tried to pull his digit away but the kid was strong to a point where dreadwing was slightly blushing and didn't want to upset the child by being rude, especially if front of the kid's sire. "Umm as I was saying..."
"There is no need to continue on further dreadwing I understand the situation and we shall continue mining until every last energon crystal is ours" megatron was completely ignoring dreadwing's silent cries for help as phantom was gripping his digit very tightly.
"Um, m'lord can you, uh make him let go of my digit please" dreadwing pleaded until megatron chuckled softly and looked down at his son while undoing his right servo from holding the child to carefully convince phantom to let go by prying baby's digit off dreadwing's metal finger, even though it was funny that the tough seeker was loosing his cool against a sparkling.
"Phantom please let go of his digit" phantom giggled softly and didn't budge "let go now" megatron asked sternly and immediately phantom did let go and the adults made their way to the main room, along the way they ran into the knockout, smokescreen, bee and starscream laughing and chatting away about whatever.
"Good morning big M" Smokey greeted them with a wave. Dreadwing and megs nodded in return and phantom started to randomly cry out in excitement as he saw them and so megatron knelt down to place him on the floor and the sparkling stood up on his pedes and almost ran with his bear all the way to bee who held out his arms and embraced the small child then hoisted him up in the air for a moment then held him close to his yellow chest. The muscle car bleeped in greetings to the child and starscream carefully caressed phantom's helm with the back of his claws as to not accidentally hurt him.
"Hey lord megatron would it be ok if we can go down to earth for awhile" knockout asked and megs thought about it for a klick with a raised optic brow.
"Knockout your supposed to be in the lab studying the omega keys with ratchet, and you starscream aren't you supposed to be looking after your mate?" Megs asked and starscream spoke up first.
"She's ok arcee's not heavily pregnant yet and plus it has been a long time since we had a break and if we ran into any danger we'll call in immediately" starscream said with calm expression.
"And plus phantom hasn't been outside the ship yet and we want to show him a whole new world" smokescreen joined in with pleading optics. Megatron was hesitant, he didn't really want his son to know anything about earth so he just shook his helm in disagreement.
"You all can have a break but you cannot take my son with you" megs said and bee lowered phantom to the floor so he can go back to his sire, but strangely enough he walked up to dreadwing and wrapped his arms around the seeker's lower leg, making him blush again, the boys couldn't help but to snicker at the scene.
"Haha, well we should get going now before dreadwimg blows a fuse" knockout chuckled to himself and they left to find soundwave to be transported to England for some sight seeing and other fun. Bulkhead and wheeljack went to go exploring too awhile ago, it seems like everyone was getting the war ship cabin fever and needed to go outside. Megatron was feeling the same way too but he had to stay in command for the remainder of the voyage.
