A young femme sat silently away from the Decepticons that were forming a line to be told where they would go. She had snuck onto the ship that carried them to Autobot City to get away from Megatron and all the fighting that had been happening. When they arrived, she again snuck past everyone and found a silent place to sit as the Autobots started to treat the injured. She wrapped her arms around her as she watched some Autobots and Decepticons past her without looking. Almost everywhere she went, she was invisible to them and she would love to keep it that way. The last time she was shown attention was when she was a sparkling. Her Ada and Atar were so proud to have a sparkling, but they went against Megatron and had a femme and not a mech. Not only that, but they hid her from him and the Decepticons to prevent her from joining the war.
"Hey," a small voice said causing her to lose her train of thought.
Opening her optics, she looked at the youngling standing in front of her. Her optics showed a little shock as she saw the first femme her age she has ever seen before.
"My name is Silverbow. What's yours?" She smiled sitting down next to the young femme.
What was her name? She remembered her Ada and Atar calling her by a name, but she couldn't think of it.
"I… don't know," she said looking down at her peds.
"Oh," Silverbow said softly. "Would you like to play with my friends and me?"
The young femme shook her head. She was scared to go with the femme in fear of being seen by the adults.
"Okay, but if you change your mind we are just over there," she smiled before running off to go and play with the other younglings.
The young femme watched as the younglings played and were enjoying themselves. Her Ada and Atar wouldn't allow her to play with the other younglings in fear that she would be seen by a Decepticon that didn't know about her.
Silently she stood and walked out and away from the mechs and femmes that were taking care of the new comers. She wanted to be away from everyone and she was going to find somewhere that she could be alone.
Once she got far enough away from Autobot City, she sat down. She began to sing softly to herself as she closed her eyes. One of her last memories of her Ada and Atar was when she was alone and wanting company. They had told her that singing would help and it did. From that day on, she was convinced that she wanted to share music with the world. But not long after that came the worse day of her short life. One day, her Ada and Atar told her that she needed to hide and stay hidden till they came back for her. Little did she know that she would never see them again. After a few orns, she finally left her hiding spot to find energon. After what felt like forever, she finally found some and realized that she was lost. From that day on, she began to wonder the streets looking for places to hide and recharging and energizing when she could.
When she heard that a ship was leaving the city and heading away from Megatron, she knew that she had to get on it and leave. Now she was in a new city and alone.
She finished singing her song as she began to rock forward and back comforting herself, but when she heard a voice, she jumped looking around. When she found the source of the voice, she was shocked. She was looking at a screen with two mechs on it. They were talking about the refugees that had just come.
"And now back to our music," one mech said.
That's when her new favorite song started to play. It was fun and very upbeat and one of the first lines was 'they say we're dancing the stress away, this beat is underneath your feet'. She smiled as she felt herself start to dance to the music and have fun. What she didn't know was that close by, Springer had called Drift as he watched her dance.
When the chorus started for the second time, she began to sing softly.
"Welcome to the club now, gonna pump it up now, this is an emergency, music is my galaxy," she sang as she danced and skipped the next few lines that she didn't really know. "We got it goin' on, till the break of dawn, so put the record on."
The young femme danced and sang as the song continued to play and for the first time since her genitors disappeared, she felt happy. As the song ended, the mechs on the screen started to play another song. Unlike the last song, it wasn't as upbeat, but this time one of the mechs started to dance on the screen. She watched him dance and started to try to dance just like he was. Part of her wished she could be just like them and dance and play music and forget about all her worries.
"Work it harder, Make it better, do it faster, makes us stronger," the music finished as she watched him sit down and start to make a report about the refugees again.
"One of these days, I want to be free to sing and dance and share music just like you," she said softly before turning around to see a mech standing behind her.
Her eyes went wide as she backed up. She didn't know if he was to be trusted or if she should run.
"Hello youngling. Where are your genitors?" he asked bending down to look into her eyes.
"They left me a while ago," she said softly taking a few steps back.
"Do you know where you came from?"
She paused and thought over that for a moment. Where was she from? She couldn't remember where she lived with her genitors. She just remembered that it was on Cybertron.
"Somewhere on Cybertron," she replied. "I don't know exactly where though."
She felt bad that for the second time in such a short time, she didn't know the answer to such simple questions.
"It's okay. What's your name?" he asked.
"I don't know that either," she said shaking her head as she held back tears.
"It's okay, youngling. You will be fine. I heard you say that you wish you could sing and dance and share music," he smiled.
"Yes," she nodded. "My Ada and Atar told me that I could sing when I felt alone. It helps me feel better and I love to dance too."
"Your Ada and Atar were right," he smiled, "And if you come with me, I can take you to get a check up and I can see if I can let you meet Jazz and Blaster."
"Who are they?" she asked.
"Jazz and Blaster are the two that you were watching on the screen."
"I would like to meet them," she smiled. "What's your name?"
"My name is Springer," he smiled.
The young femme smiled as she stepped closer to him.
"You seem like a good person that I can trust."
"I hope you can trust me," he replied. "Now let's go get you a check up."
She nodded as she watched him stand and carefully lift her up and into his arms. Once he made sure that she was safe, he headed over to the sparkling and youngling med bay.
-Leaving the Wash Racks-
"That wasn't that bad," the young femme said looking up at Springer.
"Not at all," he smiled.
"Where do I have to go now?" she asked.
"Well, you have already been to the med bay and to the wash racks. Now I get to bring you to see someone," he smiled taking her small servo in his and leading her through Autobot City.
"Who are we seeing?" she asked.
"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you," he smiled down at her.
"But what if I don't want it to be a surprise?"
"Either way, it will be a surprise," he smiled as he kept leading her to the place that she would meet some of her favorite Autobots to spend her time with.
The small femme followed Springer till he stopped and waited for a few minutes. Finally the door near them opened and the mech that had been dancing on the screen walked out.
"Jazz, I would like you to meet someone," Springer said as the young femme looked up at him. "I found this youngling singing and dancing to the music on your show. She even tried to dance like you were."
"Really?" Jazz smiled as he bent down next to the small femme. "Hello. What's your name?"
"I don't remember," she said looking at him.
"Do you know who your genitor's names or where you are from? We would like to help you find them," he smiled.
The young femme stood there and thought over the question and shook her head when she couldn't remember.
"I don't remember that either," she said softly. "Will you still help me find them though?"
"I will do everything I can to help you find your genitors," Jazz smiled as he lifted her into his arms. "Would you want to pick a song and be on the program with us?"
The young femme smiled as she looked up into his eyes.
"I would love to."
"Maybe if your genitors are here, they will see you and come for you," Jazz smiled as he brought her into the room where Blaster sat. "Today we have a very special guest with us. This young femme is one of the refugees that just came to Autobot City. The sad part is, she doesn't remember her name, where she is from, or her genitor's names. If anyone knows anything about this sweet, young femme, please call us with information. Thanks."
"Sweetie, do you have a song you want us to play?" Blaster asked.
"Yes," she smiled. "Would you play the song that you played earlier about the club?"
"Yes we can and for those watching and listening, the requested song is 'Welcome to the Club' by Manian," Blaster said as the music started to play and the young femme started to dance with Jazz.
-Elsewhere in Autobot City-
A small group of refugees from Iacon sat and watched The Jazz and Blaster Show as they energized. Among them were two mechs who sat in shock as they watched their youngling dance with the Autobots on the screen before standing up and heading to find the closest Autobot that could help them.
-The Jazz and Blaster Show-
The young femme danced and sang with Jazz as Blaster smiled and watched them. She was happy and hoped that her Ada and Atar could see her right now. As the song ended, Jazz sat down with the young femme as he took the call that was coming in.
"Thanks for calling The Jazz and Blaster Show. This is Jazz. How may I help you?"
"The young femme on your show, her name is Nocturne. I am her Ada," came a voice over the call.
"ADA!" Nocturne almost yelled as she smiled. "Where are you?"
"Your Atar and I are here in Autobot City. We are in a conference room with the Prime. Jazz, Blaster, can one of you bring her to us?" Nocturne's Ada asked.
"We can do that and now back to our music," Jazz said as Blaster turned on the next song and Jazz walked Nocturne to her genitors.
-Conference Room-
Blitz Wave and Octane Scream waited with Optimus Prime for their youngling to arrive with one of the two mechs that helped them find her. As soon as the door opened both almost jumped up to only find out that it was Prowl with a sparkling in his arms.
"That's a cute sparkling," Blitz Wave smiled as they relaxed.
"Thanks. This is Kaon, our Grandsparkling," Prowl smiled as he sat down next to Optimus as the door opened again.
This time Jazz walked in with Nocturne right beside him.
"ADA!" Nocturne yelled as she ran up to her genitors only to be swept off her feet and into the loving arms of her Ada.
"Nocturne, we were so worried that we lost you," Octane Scream said as he held his youngling tightly in his arms.
"How did you get separated from her?" Optimus asked.
"Around 300 decaorns ago, Blitz Wave and I left to go and find energon. We searched everywhere, but energon was getting hard to get. After about 6 orns, we found some and started to make our way back to Nocturne, who we told to hide and stay put. When we got back to our housing, she was gone. We spent the rest of the time searching everywhere for her," Octane Scream explained.
"Nocturne, where did you go?" Blitz Wave asked.
"When you and Ada didn't come back, I left to find energon. It took a few orns, but I finally found some. When I went to go back, I realized that I was lost. I tried to find my way back and got even more lost. I started to energize and recharge when I could and hid from the Decepticons. When I heard talk about a ship leaving Megatron, I snuck on and came here," she explained.
"We heard about the ship leaving Megatron and decided that we had to get away. We almost gave up trying to find her, but part of us knew that if she heard about the ship, she would get on to leave Iacon," Blitz Wave added.
"Did all of you see Ratchet or one of our other medics and have a check up?" Prowl asked.
"Springer took me to someone," Nocturne spoke up.
"We didn't," Octane Scream shook his head.
"It would be best for both of you to go straight there after we finish talking."
"Is there anything you can tell us about Megatron and his plans?" Optimus asked.
"Not that I can think of," Blitz Wave shook his head.
"Very well. Please go and visit with one of our doctors, energize, and recharge. If you can think of anything, please inform Prowl or myself," Optimus added.
"Thank you," Octane Scream nodded as he walked out with Nocturne in his arms and his bonded by his side.
