One Foot in Front of the Other

Oneshot. Set after the events of 'Sick Mind'. Hints of Ratchet/Optimus. The leader's chassis was intact, just as it should be.

One Foot in Front of the Other
By SMYGO4EVA

After everyone else had went off, working on repairing damages from the latest battle and working on plans for the next, Ratchet took a break from his own work. He walked down to the infirmary.

Optimus was still unconscious, and the medic noted the delicate way his body breathed in and out. The leader's chassis was intact, just as it should be.

Ratchet let go a heavy sigh of relief. He was so glad that Optimus was still alive.

Watching him now, the medic couldn't think of what else to be grateful of. Well, his own beating spark of course, but he wasn't a warrior.

When it comes down to it, Ratchet was replaceable.

Optimus' own life was always more important. And Ratchet was okay with that.

It was simple as putting one foot in front of the other.
