What an Irony: New changes Chapter 1
Remember: I do not own any of these characters except for Sarah aka Starout! Everyone belongs to Hub, Hasbro, and all the other owners! Enjoy this fanfic!
Also, I shall be using Sarah's name in here so I don't confuse you all but when she is talking, people will call her by Starout. The only two that will call her Sarah is Knockout and Starscream. Enjoy this second part!
Sarah was asleep in her own berth. She grumbled as she tossed a bit trying so hard to get comfortable. It was really hard for her considering she was a transformer now and not a human.
As a human, she could sleep no problem. But as a transformer, with wheels on her back and her technology, recharging was indeed a problem.
Sarah groaned as she sat up and growled," I cannot sleep. Dammit it all." As she rubbed her optics.
She looked out the window and wondered what time it was. Maybe Starscream was up. Or her father. Or Breakdown.
Looking at her lone bed, she wondered why Starscream just could not sleep with her. But she remembered him saying the leader always sleep by themselves.
Sarah blinked at the sudden realization. That was right. She is the leader of the Decepticons now.
She whispered," I cannot believe that I am leader now." As she sat on the edge of the berth giving her legs time to adjust.
Slowly standing up, she almost fell and caught the side of the berth. She had to be careful. She was still trying to get used to her new size.
Sarah whispered," Oh I hope that I can get used to this soon." As she walked to the door and went ouch! When she bumped her head.
Rubbing her head, Sarah frowned," This transformer thing is not that easy." As she walked down the hall.
She sighed as she walked down the hall noticing that everyone seemed to be asleep. Well almost everyone.
She looked in on the medical bay and chuckled. She seen her father standing there looking over his schedule for the day. It seemed like when the bots started returning to Cybertron, his and Ratchet's work doubled. She did not know how he found time for Arcee.
Sarah shook her head at the thought as she knockout on the door and said," Father?"
Knockout turned around and said," Sarah? What are you doing up so late? You will have to be up early." As he seen his daughter walk in.
Sarah frowned," I cannot sleep." As she watched him working.
Knockout chuckled as he said," The wheels getting in the way again? Didn't I tell you to sleep on your side?"
Shaking her head, Sarah replied," I tried that. It's not very comfortable." As she stretched.
Knockout shook his head as he said," Don't worry love. It takes some time getting used to." As he looked at his schedule.
Sarah said," What is on today's schedule?"
Knockout chuckled," Not much. Just a few bots for a check-up, one coming in to get an appendage put back on, and …." As he grinned.
Sarah blinked," What?"
Knockout grinned,' You might want to come see this. A femme is coming in to have her sparkling checked up and make sure it's growing okay."
Sarah grinned," A sparkling? How about that?" as she looked at the computers and whispered," I want a sparkling of my own."
Knockout chuckled," How would you find the time? Between you helping me in the Medical Bay, making sure you are a good leader, and being a spark mate to Starscream, I am surprised you are still standing up."
Sarah giggled as she said," I guess you are right." As she said," So when can I expect a brother or sister?"
Knockout stopped in his tracks as he looked at Sarah and said," Ummm why do ask that question?"
Sarah grinned," Oh come on now. We are not getting any younger. True we can live hundreds of years but still…"
Knockout turned a bit red as he said," Well, I am not even sure if Arcee can have sparklings or not. Her machine outlook is different…."
Sarah blinked in confusion as she replied," What does that mean father?"
Knockout sighed as he looked at the keyboard. He stated," That means if she was to get sparked, there is no telling if she could carry to term or not."
Sarah blinked," When you mean term, what is the pregnancy term for a transformer?"
Looking at his daughter, Knockout said," Curious eh? Well, a human pregnancy can last up to 9 months while a transformer is a bit different. The sparkling has to go through so many changes from upgrading to forming the body to the spark starts pulsing. Usually if everything goes well it can last anywhere from 10-14 months."
Sarah's eyes widened as she whispered," That is a long time."
Knockout nodded and said," And it takes a toll on the femme or mech who carries. It can cause a lot of problems which is why the mother must be monitored closely. See with transformers, it is possible for the femme to get pregnant or well as the mech. But it depends on which body the spark chooses."
Sarah looked confused as she said," Pregnancy sure is tricky with transformers." As she looked at the paperwork.
Knockout nodded," Hai which is why Arcee and I are waiting a bit. If I was the one the spark chose, it could be risky for me being the only medic besides Ratchet. If the spark chooses Arcee, then it could put her life in danger."
Sarah nodded," I see what you mean." As she frowned a bit at the thought of it could either be her or Starscream to have the sparkling.
Knockout nodded as he said," Why don't you head back to bed a bit? This could take a while."
Sarah snorted," Nonsense. I am in here so I might as well be of assistance to you."
Knockout chuckled," You are my child after all. Okay here is what you can help me with." As father and daughter went to work.

Sarah sighed the next morning as she walked down the hall looking for Starscream. He did not show up for breakfast which was very unusual for him.
Maybe he was sleeping in or he spent last night drinking Energon with Bulkhead. She groaned at the thought of that.
Sarah whispered," That means he is going to have a horrible hangover." As she walked up to Starscream's door and knocked on it.
Starscream said," Yeah yeah come on in."
Sarah typed in the code and entered. She saw Starscream lying on the berth with a cloth over his face plate.
She put her hands on her hips and said," You have been out with Breakdown again haven't you?"
Starscream groaned," Don't start with me today. I have a horrible headache."
Shaking her head, Sarah took the washcloth and carefully dipped it into his wash basin. She laid the cloth over him and whispered," Can I get you anything love?"
Starscream groaned," Make this headache go away." As he mentally cursed Breakdown .He would get that bot back for this.
Sarah looked at Starscream as she stroked his face with worry.
Looking at his spark mate, Starscream replied," I thought you were supposed to be at the bridge. You are our leader after all."
Sarah said," I was but I left Breakdown in charge until I go back. I had to make sure my spark mate is doing okay."
Starscream frowned," Breakdown is fine? Well, I guess that is natural. He is an automobile after all and automobiles can take more than seekers."
Sarah chuckled lightly as she said," It's okay. I still love seekers."
Starscream grinned as he took his washcloth off and said," Oh? And why is that?"
Sarah grinned," Well Seekers have a sexy body for starters." As she slapped his hips.
Starscream's ego really boosted when she said that. He smirked," Go on."
Sarah grinned," And they have such strong wings for travel." As she ran her fingers up and down his wings.
Starscream smirked wider as he leaned into her and said," Well, what are you planning to do now?"
Sarah grinned as she said," Anything you want me to do. But are you sure you can handle our sparking?" as she leaned in closer.
Starscream smirked," Well I think I can try." As he turned the control and made sure the lights were out and the door was closed.
Just at that time, Knockout was walking down the hall. He had gone up to the bridge that morning but Breakdown stated Sarah had left looking for Starscream. Now he was going down to the Seeker's quarters to talk to Sarah.
He got to the door and frowned as he heard the kissing and moaning sounds of the two bots making out.
Knockout blinked a bit wondering if he should disturb them or not. He finally decided that it would be a good time to break this up before Sarah or Starscream got sparked.
He knocked on the door and said," Starscream? Is Sarah there?" and chuckled as he heard the two bots getting off of each other as quickly as possible.
Sarah opened the door, her face still red from the sparking. She said," Father! What are you doing here?!"
Knockout sighed as he said," I was looking for you. That femme is here if you want to go down to the Medical bay and watch me perform a check-up."
Sarah blinked a bit but nodded as she walked down the hall and said," See you at the medical bay. Bye Starscream!"
Starscream watched Sarah leave and turned back to Knockout frowning. "What the hell do you think you are doing?"
Knockout frowned as he said," What am I doing? Why are you two sparking? Are you trying to get sparked?"
Starscream snorted," How do you even know it would be me to get sparked?"
Knockout snorted as he said," Need I remind you that neither one of you needs to get sparked at the moment. You have duties and so does she."
Starscream snorted," We are spark mates now. We have that right to do sparking."
Knockout's face cringed as he did not need to know that. He said,' Look all I am saying is that you two need to wait before you bring a sparkling into this world."
Starscream snorted as he said," Fine. We shall wait but now can you please get the hell out of my quarters so I can get rid of this headache?!"
Knockout scoffed as he left the Seeker's quarters. He mentally told himself that he needed to keep an eye on those two. Who knows what would happen if one of them was sparked.
