(A/N: So this story is based around my OC Stealthblade, an OC I play with in threads. Now many have come to dislike him, which in unfortunate. However there are some few who like him. So I decided to make a drabble/ memoir why he is the way he is. I think even if you don't know the character you will enjoy it!)
This is the tale of a bot whom many misunderstood. Many wonder why he fell down the path he did. His father and mother of high rank in the Auto-bot guard. Here we shall go into the past to understand the future.
Stealthblast laid a servo in his sparkmate's slightly bulging belly.
"You won't be able to feel it yet," Mercurystar laughed laying a servo on his.
"You think it will be a mech or femme?" he asked, excitement on the tip of his voice.
"Oh, I don't know," she said with a smile.
"Well no matter what it is it's name will-"
"Share your name and the name of your fathers," Mercurystar cut off and finished.
He smiled sheepishly, he had that so many times already. "So what did the doc bot say?"
"The little one is doing fine, the only thing out of the ordinary is how fast it's growing," she said.
Stealthblast laughed hartily. " Thats my sparkling! So ambitious, they'll certainly be an elite guard like me. perhaps it'll inherit a tall stature like me," he grinned.
"I hope so,"Mercurystar said leaning on her sparkmate. She then noticeably winced in pain.
"What is it?"
"my belly..." she said laying a servo on it, wincing again "ah!" she cried in pain.
"Is it the sparkling? It can't be time!"
Mercurystar let out another yell in pain. "Primus!"
"Hold on dear," Stealthblast said as he lifted her up rushing off to the doc bot.
It felt like eons till the doc bot came out to talk to Stealthblast as he sat his servos wrenching. He was nervous for the wellbeing of his sparking and sparkmate.
"How is she?" he asked quickly.
"Mercurystar is fine, she's resting now," he replied calmly, however he sounded grave, like there was something still wrong.
"…What about the sparkling?" Stealthblast asked slowly in fear.
"It was a successful delivery but-"
"It's here! Is it a mech or a femme?" Stealthblast asked excitedly
The sudden burst threw the doc-bot off. He finally said, "A mech... But-"
"I want to see them now!" Stealthblast interrupted again.
The doc bot sighed then nodded. His solemn attitude making Stealthblast nervous, he brought the nervous father over to a holding area for sparklings.
Stealthblast's optics widened as he saw a sparkling smaller than the size of his servo laying there looking up at him curiously. His tiny body was a dark grey. His cyan colored optics locking onto his fathers the sparkling smiled with a laugh. Stealthblast didn't return it. He was frowning.
"What's wrong with him?" he asked the docbot stiffly anger radiating from him.
"He was extremely early. It's normal for him to be this size, but not delivered... Or"
"or?"
"to even be fully developed like this."
"Fully developed? He's tiny! How will he be able to live?" Stealthblast roared.
"Please calm down," the docbot urged, "although this has never happened it could still be possible he grows up to be a perfectly normal."
"Really?"
"I believe so, just make sure he gets enough nutrients."
Stealthblast looked over to the sparkling, his sparkling. Looking close he noticed his servos. Each and every digit was sharp looking and triangular like a knife. The two stared at each other for a few nanoclicks. He then noticed a cut across the sparkling's chest and each one of his digits covered with a rubber looking cover.
"What are those?"
"His digits are extremely sharp, we put coverings on them for his safety," the docbot said, relieved that Stealthblast had calmed.
"May I see mercurystar?" he asked.
The docbot nodded and lead Steathblast to her. She lay on a berth. Her head rotated over to her sparkmate. He paused as he saw her legs covered in small scratches.
"Hello," she said weakly with a smile.
"Hello my love," he said going to her.
"Did the docbot tell you about the sparkling?" she asked.
"Yes..."
"Did you see him? What does he look like? I couldn't get a look at him"
Stealthblast held her servo with both of his. "Just rest now, we'll both see him later"
"What should we name him?" she asked.
Stealthblast paused. He was his son still... And he could be normal...
"Stealthblade."
Thus the young bot is born, albeit not under normal circumstance. A shocking discovery for his father, but it would take a blind eye to not see he was special. However many of the most apt eyes are blind.
