"Please Primus let them find food" Ratchet sighed watching the eight run into the forest.
"R...r..Ratchet I heard Optimus was he just here?" Elita asked weakly crawling out of the den.
"Elita you shouldn't be up!" Ratchet growled rushing over to the weak pregnant female.
"Oh Ratchet you worry to much" Elita sighed lying at the door of the den.
"Maybe but I care" Ratchet said grooming giving the female caring licks.
"So where's Optimus?" Elita asked looking around.
"He came to get more hunters, the cons attacked him the twins and Ironhide" Ratchet said.
"Are they ok!" Elita panicked getting up.
"Elita careful!" Ratchet panicked helping the pink and silver female lay down.
"Ah!" Elita yiped getting a sharp pain.
"Elita are you ok!" Ratchet asked nudging her with his snout.
"Mmhmm" Elita whined.
"Ok back into the den" Ratchet said guiding the female into the den.
"Ow!" Elita whimpered laying in the middle of the den.
"What's wrong?" Ratchet asked.
"I don't know I'm getting strange pains" Elita whined breathing heavily.
"Primus...you're in labour!" Ratchet yelped.
"First aid Wheeljack signal Twilight and Dusk!" Ratchet ordered sticking his head out of the den.
"Aaaaaooooooo!" Wheeljack and First aid both howled for the raven and eagle.
"You called?" The majestic eagle landed.
"Dusk at your service" the noble raven landed beside the eagle.
"Find Optimus and tell him it's time!" Ratchet said to the raptor and scavenger.
"Time!, time for what?" Twilight asked ready to take off.
"Time to get a sundial ha ha ha!" Dusk joked.
"Elita is in labour! now go!" Ratchet snarled.
"Sure thing Ratchet be back in a few" Dusk said taking off with Twilight.
"Sideswipe?" Sunstreaker whined licking his weak twins wounds.
"He needs to rest and get medical atention" Arcee said walking over to the twins.
"Optimus!" Arcee called walking over with the injured silver and red twin.
"Yes Arcee" Optimus answered watching Arcee and the yellow and silver twin trot over to him with the silver and red twin trailing weakly behind.
"Sideswipe needs medical attention" Arcee told the leader.
"Yes he does Sunstreaker Arcee take him back to see Ratchet" Optimus agreed.
"Optimus...no...you need help finding food" Sideswipe whined in pain.
"My young friend you are very thoughtful, you need to heal your wounds please go back we have enough help" Optimus reasured as he licked Sideswiped wound.
"If you say so big guy" Sideswipe smiled following Arcee and Sunstreaker back to the den.
"Where are those mutts" Dusk sighed flying with Twilight.
"I don't know look for them" Twilight rolled her eyes.
"Hey am I an eagle?, I don't have the eagle eyes here" Dusk said.
"Fine you fly lower in the trees I'll see if I can see him from up here" Twilight sighed.
"Will do!" Dusk said soaring down into the thick forest.
"Wheeljack!" Arcee called running up to the white red green wolf.
"Arcee what is it you're supposed to be hunting" Wheeljack said greeting the female.
"Sideswipes hurt he needs medical atention where's Ratchet?" Sunstreaker asked walking over with Sideswipe.
"He's in Optimus and Elita's den, Elita's in labour"
"WHAT!" All three shouted.
"Yeah we sent Dusk and Twilight out to retrieve Optimus" Wheeljack said happily.
"Someone need medical attention?" First aid asked walking over.
"Yes Sideswipe" Sunstreaker pointed.
"Oooh that's one good bite Megatron has" First aid said looking at the wound on the back of Sideswipes neck.
"There you are!" Dusk cawed finding Optimus flying out of the trees to notify Twilight.
"Found him" Dusk said flying back down.
"Wha?" Optimus lifted his head hearing a familiar screetch and caw from above.
"Optimus!" Twilight and Dusk both dived for the red and Blue wolf.
"Aaaah!" Optimus quickly ducked holding his paws ontop of his head.
"What's going on?" Ironhide and Bluestreak asked as Nightbeat and Mirage, Jazz, Tracks and Hound walked over with them.
"It's time!" Twilight and Dusk bothe said excitedly waddling over to the alpha male.
"Time?" All of the wolves tilted their heads.
"Time Elita!" Dusk and Twilight shouted.
"Elita?...time...OH TIME!" Optimus ran jumping over the birds running back to the den.
"Optimus!" Ironhide called running with the pack after the leader.
"Elita's in labour mutts!" Dusk finally said flying dodging branches.
"Ooooh!" All of the nodded.
"They should be here by now!" Ratchet growled pacing outside the den.
"Ratchet don't stress I'm sure they'll get here" The twins smiled.
"Unless the cons got em" Sunstreaker and Sideswipe shrugged.
"Prowl!" Ratchet growled.
"Twins shut up!" Prowl growled.
"Where are the..."
"Aaaaaaaooooooo!" Howls filled their ears as Optimus and six others jumped over to them.
"Come on Optimus quickly" Ratchet said guiding the leader into the den.
"Elita..." Optimus sighed happily walking over to the female in labour.
"Just in time" Elita smiled giving Optimus a kiss.
"This is sooo awesome can't wait for pups!" Sideswipe Sunstreaker Mirage and Jazz jumped and wagged their tails playfully bowing.
"Now now boys settle down...remember Elita is not to well we will be lucky if one makes it" Hound reminded the excited young adults.
"We know..." All four sighed settling down.
Hour and a half later
Four small little lifeless bodies were brought out by Ratchet.
"Take these to the memorial grounds" Ratchet told his team of medics and scientists.
"How is she?" Jazz asked bowing his head mournfully.
"She's still in labour" Ratchet said.
"Still!" The twins gasped.
"She's having a difficult time" Ratchet sighed walking back into the den.
"Back...anything new?" Wheeljack asked walking over with the team.
"Not tha we know of" Twilight sighed hanging her head low.
Just the Ratchet came out holding a tiny little yellow pup with a black stripe on each side, it softly whined and yawned wanting its mothers milk.
"It's alive!" The pack cheered happily.
"Tiny little thing isn't he?" Arcee cooed giving the pup a sniff.
"Never seen a pup so small" Hound smiled.
"He's the runt of the little, I don't understand how he is the one to survive but it dosen't matter how as long as he is" Ratchet said taking the pup to his mother nd father.
The small pup whined and yiped finding his mothers warm milk.
"Oh Optimus he's beautiful" Elita smiled rubbing her head on Optimus's chin.
"He is... you did it" Optimus sighed licking Elita's head.
"We did it" Elita said licking Optimus's snout.
"Yes" Optimus sighed as he watched his new son snuggle up against Elitas stomach getting the mothers warmth lulling himself to sleep.
"Optimus let's let these two rest" Ratchet said happily to the new father.
"Love you" Optimus gave one last loving lick as Elita yawned.
"Love you..." Elita sighe falling asleep.
"Optimus congradulations!" The pack greeted with wagging tail and happy barks caws screaches and nudges.
"Thank you all of you" Optimus smiled at his pack proud to be a father.
"Come on Optimus Elita is going to need food lets go hunt" Ironhide informed the leader.
"I just hope we can find food" Optimus sighed following the large black wolf.
