Hey people! The wonderfully written next chapter! Thanks to Zoey the Wolf who is my wonderful beta!

It's amazing how easily I can be distracted. Really, I had just finished my patrol, returning to Iacon, when I saw something. To be honest I really don't know what I saw. It sparked my interest, though. So I went over to it. Little did I know what I would find.
A sparkling is what I found sitting on a railway corner. Nobody had been near this railway within a deca-cycle, because it leads straight towards Kaon. The HQ for the Decepticons. No Autobot that wanted to see the dawn of a new cycle ever went there. Ever. So what was this little itty bitty teeny tiny sparkling doing down here?
That's when I found the shot mark; it wasn't really a mark, but more like a hole. Right in the middle of its chest, right next to the spark casing. Even I, who had NO medical training, knew that was a very bad thing. Even an adult mech or femme could barely survive this. I don't want to know the odds for the little thing.
Well, I can't just leave it here…so I picked up the little sparkling and put it in my sparkling chamber. I know that usually only for femmes, but my sparkmate, Prowl, had always wanted a sparkling. For our spark anniversary I had Ratchet put one in so Prowl and I could try. It wasn't for the next couple of joors, but I really needed the time to get used to the thing being in my chassis. I transformed into my car form being careful not to hurt the sparkling.
"Jazz to Ratchet, come in," I said as I spoke in to the comm. link as I was racing to get back to base.
"This is Ratchet. Go ahead Jazz," I was so relieved to hear him.
"Ratchet ya'd better have ya medbay ready f'r meh when ah come in."
"Why? Did you go and get your leg torn off again? I swear when Prowl hears this…"
"It's not f'r meh! Though ah did get a few scratches, but tha's not th' point. Ratch, ah found somethin' nobot eva wants t' see."
"Oh, and what is that?" Why is he so sassy all of a sudden?
"I found a sparklin'! Near offlinin' Ratchet! On a street corner! A deca-cycle away fr'm Kaon!" Now I was yelling at him. Great, angry docbot. One that throws wrenches, wonderful.
"…You found a sparkling?" Now he was yelling back at me.
"Yea! What, y' don' believe meh?"
"Near offlining? I have the medbay ready now. You should have been hear a cycle ago if it was anywhere near offlining!" finally. The sparkling gets taken care of.
"Ah'll be there in half a cycle. Jazz out."

Ratchet
Oh my sweet Primus… a sparkling. I haven't seen one of those since I first saw Optimus. He was such a small little sparkling. Could never hurt a Turbofly. I chuckled as I thought of little sparkling Optimus. He was so cute when he was that age. I never thought that he would turn into a very large mech wrecker, or a Prime for that matter. Though they say that you should never judge a datapad by the edging.
As I got any extra materials I thought I might need, Ironhide came in…as did the twins, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe. They may be good warriors, but they don't know the term 'responsibility'. I turned my back so I wouldn't break anything and the next thing I heard was a loud CRASH, from across the medbay. I turned back to find Ironhide on top of the twins, wrestling them about putting something in his canons again. If I had an energon cube for each time they pulled a prank on someone here, the whole base would never be out of energon again. That's saying something. I remember the last prank they pulled on me. It was horrible.
Flashback
"What are you two doing in my medbay? I told you two not to come in here unless either one of you is injured!" Why did I always have to yell at them?
"Stop worrying docbot! We were just getting out of here! Don't blow out your carborator!" Sunstreaker said with fake reasons.
"Yeah, stop worrying. We're good bots!" Sideswipe basically yelled into my audios.
"Fine, then get out! Don't come back without missing a servo or you're not coming in!"
"We're going!" They screamed at the same time.
The worst thing happened right then. A ton of bright green goo, there are no other words that could describe it, fell on top of me. It splashed on me, it went everywhere. There was not a crack in my armor it did not fall into. I hated it, it smelled, it was runny, and I had a feeling it wasn't coming out of armor that easily…
I was right; the goo didn't come out until four showers in a row. I had yet to get them back for that by giving them any good dents…
Right then Jazz flew through the doors yelling at the top of his vocal processor, "RATCHET! YA NEED T' FIX IT NOW!"
"Put it on the exam table and you three OUT NOW! Or you three will have to live with your dents until the next joor!" I screamed with all of my might, hoping that they might listen. They did more than that; they ran out with such speed that you would think that Megatron himself was tailing them. I have never seen Ironhide move with such speed, except when Chromia is mad at him. She is one scary femme. I looked over to the little sparkling. Primus it was small! The only one I had seen that was smaller was Bumblebee. This one only beat him by a few cyberinches. I pushed Jazz out of the way, and started my work.
_Line Thingy!_

I hope nothing happens to the sparkling. Nobot had seen one since the terrible accident to the youth sector. The only one left online was Bumblebee, he had grown up. He was 2000 vorns old, he had just turned old enough to join the Autobots. I wonder what would happen to the sparkling when it was older. Who would raise it? I got an idea…
