Alright, this is kind of different a little from usual stories. I think. Well anyway right now in the first few chapters this story will be based around Ratchet. But then later on it'll switch to being based around the last sparkling made and Ratchet. Who do you think the last sparkling is? Don't say who you think it is in reviews either. Don't wreck it for other people. Also I will work on my other stories but I keep coming up with new story ideas! Darn me! Well enjoy this story till I continue the other ones. Oh and if you see words in this format that means it's a flash back and it's also some times thoughts too.
Disclaimer- I don't own Transformers the only character I own is the one called 'Blue Sun'
The Last Sparkling
Chapter 1
"Don't worry. I'm not going to leave you. Don't give up. Please stay with me!" Ratchet yelled to his fallen femme friend.
"Ratchet…I'm…I'm not going to make it." The young femme said sighing and looking up at the young red and white medic.
"Don't you dare say that soldier! Your going to make it! For the love of Primus, Blue Sun you will make it!" the medic said gently picking up the femme.
"Stop kidding yourself. Ratchet I…I need you to do something for me. Take it as…my dying wish." The young femme known as Blue Sun slowly said.
The medic fell to his knees but held on to the dying femme. "Anything, I'll do anything. Only for you."
"A vorn or two ago I created a…a sparkling of my own." The femme admitted as she looked away. The medics eyes were wide. "He hasn't gone online yet though. I asked Perceptor what was wrong…he said…ugh…he said that the sparkling needs a male Autobots programming."
"What…what do you mean? What are you talking about? The sparkling only needs your programming! It doesn't need two bots programming!" the medic exclaimed.
"That's what I thought. But this sparkling…is what Perceptor called…special. I tried giving him my programming. But he only took half of my programming. I kept trying and trying but his downloads never finished. He's incomplete. Ratchet, I want you to go to Perceptor's lab. In the back room, the one he lets no one go into, the sparkling is in there. I want you to complete him for me. Download your programming into him. Give him half of your programming. You're the only one I trust."
"But why me? You could have completed this sparkling ages ago! You said you went to Perceptor for help! Why not him?" Ratchet asked confused.
"I've only known him for five vorns. I've known you since I was a youngling. You're the only bot I trust to take care of my sparkling…once he downloads part of your program into him…he'll be…our sparkling." The femme smiled and put a hand on the young medics cheek. Her optics slowly closed "Please Ratchet…complete...our…sparkling." her hand soon fell to the ground and the femme's body grew cold as she went offline.
Ratchet held onto the femmes body. "I'll complete our sparkling Blue Sun and I'll make sure he grows up to be the greatest bot anyone's ever seen. I'll never let any one hurt him."

"Hello? Ratchet? Anyone home?" Bumblebee asked as he gently knocked on the old medics head.
Ratchet came out of his thoughts and glanced at the young bot. "I was thinking. Can't a bot think in peace?" the medic snapped.
"Whoa, sorry. Geez, don't got to be such a grouch about it." The young mech asked backing away slightly.
The medic sighed then asked "What do you need?"
"Nothing, you just kind of blanked out and I just wanted to make sure you didn't go offline some how." The yellow bot said smiling.
"It's just my old war wounds acting up again. It's never a good sign when they do. Especially the memory that comes along with the pain." Ratchet said as he looked at the war wound on his arm.
"Didn't you say that bounty hunter Lockdown gave you that wound? What do you think he's gonna come back again?" Bumblebee asked.
"No, it wasn't a memory about Lockdown. It was about…an old friend who went before her time." The medic said then walked away from the young bot and to a different room, leaving the confused Bumblebee there.
The old medic walked down the hall. He was heading for this med bay, maybe he should do a full system check on himself. Why would that painful memory suddenly come up again? Blue Sun had been dead for centuries. Though she was never forgotten since Ratchet had a reminder of her always with him. But he always tried to never remember the day she went offline, but now…he suddenly remembered again. Why? Why was he remembering it now? Was some thing bad about to happen? Was it what the Elite Guard had warned him about when he succeeded in bringing to life the sparkling Blue Sun had created?
No, maybe it was just a random painful memory he was having. Or was it? He prayed to Primus it was.

"Ratchet! Ratchet!" Blue Sun yelled running into her friend. At this time Ratchet had been a medic-in-training. The young medic has hoped that his femme friend would join him in being a medic but she always took the easy way in life and decided to become a sparkling sitter. Though he wondered how taking care of sparklings could be easy.
"What is it?" the young bot asked facing his femme friend.
"I passed my sparkling sitter tests! I'm now a certified sparkling sitter! See I became a sparkling sitter WAY before you became an official Elite Guard Medic so HA!" the femme said jumping for joy, while rubbing it in her friends face.
The medic-in-training simply sighed "It's takes more time to become a medic so of course you got your dream job before me."
Blue Sun immediately stopped jumping and glared at her white and red friend "Who ever said this is my 'dream job' huh Ratchet?"
"W-well you never said you wanted t-to be anything else." Ratchet said slowly backing away. The young femme had a short temper at times. Even if Ratchet was her best friend she would still give him a good lashing out.
"It doesn't mean I WANTED to be a sparkling sitter! It's just…the only thing I'll ever be good at…" the young femme said frowning and looking at the ground.
"Blue Sun don't say that! You're good at lots of things. It's just…well take this as advice and not an insult Blue, you never want to try harder. All the vorns I've known you you've never wanted to try. You always took the easy way out of things. Isn't that why you took the job of being a sparkling sitter? Cause it was an easy job that you knew you could handle. You could be destined for great things if you just tried." Ratchet said as he placed his hands on both of the young femme's shoulders.
"Y-you really think I could be something great?" Blue Sun asked looking into the medic-in-training's optics.
Ratchet smiled at the young femme "I don't think I know. I remember when we were younglings and you talked about being an Elite Guard Commander. What ever happened to that dream Blue?"
The femme looked down at the ground again and got the young bot to let her ago "That dream…died a long time ago." She said then turned and walked away.
"Yeah…it died away…just like the rest of you." The bot silently said to himself as he turned the other direction and walked.

"Why Blue? Why'd you have to be so foolish?" Ratchet said to himself as he walked into the med bay. He sat down on the medical berth and sighed.
He looked over at the door as the young Autobot leader known as Optimus Prime stepped in.
"Hey, you um…want to talk? I passed Bumblebee and he said you sort of…blanked out. Is it your war wounds again?" Prime asked.
"Yeah it is and no I don't want to talk about it." The old medic said getting off the medical berth.
"But you know you can…right? Are you sure something's not bothering you?" Prime asked the old medic.
"Yes I'm sure!" the medic yelled. Prime stepped back, a little shocked by the medics sudden out burst. Ratchet just sighed "I'm sorry Prime. I just don't want to talk about it. It's a secret…that I'm never meant to tell anyone."
Prime slowly nodded "Alright but again…you can talk to me if you ever need to." Prime said and left the room.
"Yeah yeah…I know." The medic said once the young leader had left the room. The medic sighed again 'Why do you have to haunt me now Blue? Why?'

Megatron sat there looking through the files of the Elite Guard that his double agent had sent him. Most of the information was old though. But right now that's all the double agent could get.
Most of the information was also very…dull. Half of the files on here had been old war tactics that were out of date or just a bunch of Autobots old war journals.
"I will never need any of this. If Shockwave thinks I can use any of this he must be dumber then I thought!" Megatron said angrily. He soon came across an old war journal that got his interest. The journal came with some interesting files as well. "Hm…looks like the files Shockwave sent me aren't all boring." He said as he read the Autobot's name that the computer journal belonged to "Autobot…Ratchet? That's one of the Autobots that are on this planet." He said then grinned "Let's see what happened during your time in the war medic bot."
The Decepticon leader started opening some files in the medic's war journal. Most of it was, as Megatron knew, boring beyond all belief. "This is useless." He said as he was about to move on to some other files. But then an entry title of one of the journals caught his eye…and his interest. The title of the entry was- "The Last Sparkling." The Decepticon leader said now interested again.
He quickly opened the journal file and started reading what the medic had wrote at the time.
'I have finally succedded in bringing to life my old friends sparkling. It took more time then it should have but it worked. My old friend, Blue Sun's, dying wish was to bring to life her sparkling. This sparkling…is special in so many ways. He looks nothing like me even though he has half of my programming. He has Blue Sun's looks and more of her personality. It's like Blue Sun has yet again returned to me in the form of an adorable sparkling.
After he was brought online I took care of him in secret. I didn't want the Elite Guard to know about him. If they knew…then the Decepticons would soon find out about him too. The Decepticons wanted EVERY single sparkling dead and I wasn't about to lose Blue Sun's sparkling to a bunch of traitors. Sadly taking care of the sparkling got in the way of finishing up my Elite Guard Medic training. The Elite Guard soon found out about him. He was known as the last sparkling.
We soon found out that the young sparkling possessed a great power unlike any other bot. The Elite Guard took him away from me saying that I couldn't handle him now. That he was in the way of my training. That he needed to be put under special watch so the Decepticons would never know about him. But that was a lie. I told them that if he was under special watch all the time the Decepticons would soon find out about what we were keeping a secret and that they would know we had one final sparkling left. Luckily it worked. I hoped they would return my sparkling to me but they never did. They gave him to a femme and are now keeping him hidden. They told me in the future I could once again see him and that one day we would have to use his power to defeat an evil that would one day come. But no matter what I hope that he grows to be a strong bot and is a great warrior. I hope he never falls into Decepticon hands and that he becomes everything that Blue Sun should have been.'
Megatron's grin got wider with every sentence he read. This sparkling still existed somewhere in the universe and he was going to be the Decepticons new weapon. More files on the sparkling still existed in other Elite Guard files and Megatron was going to find them all and find the exact location of the sparkling and the first one he would destroy once he had the sparklings power…would be the one who finished his creation…Ratchet would be the first to fall…under the sparklings power.

What do you think? Okay yeah I gave Ratchet sort of a lover. Well actually can you can't Blue Sun as his lover? Actually people they were both just friends. In my mind Blue Sun never intended to have Ratchet be the what we called 'father' of her sparkling but eh, as explained in the story the sparkling was 'special' and needed two programs from two bots and I'm sure you would ask the person you trusted the most for help which is exactly what Blue Sun did. Now if you like RatchetXArcee and have a problem with some one even being friends or slightly attracted to Ratchet then don't read this story. Because later on there might be some Blue SunXRatchet moments. So deal with it. Will continue if people like it!
