Never the same

Sorry this took so long! Got another glomp courtesy of homework!!

As usual I own nothing and more than likely never will!!

Sparks. Sitting in each of the twins hands were sparks. Twins sparks. Jazz stared the sparks, and for the first couple time in dayshe smiled….. warmly and genuinely.

The twins instantly brightened, unfortunately that's when the newly appointed Prime, CMO, and second and third commands decided to walk through the door effectively destroying the rare moment of happiness.

"Explain" Rodimus ordered gesturing at the sparks held carefully in the tree mechs hands. Sunstreaker growled , he would never get used to his new 'superiors'. All they were to him were sparklings trying to fit into their creator's armor.

Sideswipe shifted uncomfortably, "we need to speak to the… to the….First Aid" he could never bring himself to call First Aid CMO, he was after all replacing THEIR CMO.

"Well I'm sure you can say what ever you need to in front of us to" he replied hurt.

Springer and Arcee gave each other looks; this could go many ways at this moment.

"I don't need to tell you anything" Snarled Sunstreaker viciously, "Sunny let up" his brother pleaded through their bond. Sunstreaker looked at him and then huffed breaking the sense of imminent danger.

It was Jazz who spoke, he explained in full detail from the dream to waking up with the spark obviously his sparkling in his hands. Their optics widened to the point they were threatening to become to big for their faces. Arcee however looked absolutely thrilled.

"I love sparklings, can I play with them Jazz??" she questioned optics bright with anticipation.

Jazz laughed good naturedly and reassured her she could play with his sparkling once it was in its protoform. The three higher ups walked out to announce the news to the rest of The Arc, Arcee gushing about how cute the sparklings would be and so on. Rodimus Prime could only smile and nod.

First Aid eyed Sunstreaker cautiously. No doubt he would protest to having him give a medical check, even if it meant he wouldn't know whether it was a femme or mech. You would be better off telling a petro rabbit to stay still. It was settled he'd ask Jazz, then Sideswipe, then get them to persuade Sunstreaker….

"Hey Jazz do you mind if I give that spark a check?" Jazz smiled brightly and handed the spark over. First Aid placed the spark on the medical berth and ran a few quick scans, after a few minutes he handed the spark back to the surprisingly quiet Jazz.

"Congratulations you have a healthy young mech", Jazzes' face was brimming with happiness at the news. "When will the protoforms be ready?" he asked, optics never leaving the bubbly spark in his hands.

"Should be about 4:00 human time, I'll wake you then"

Jazz for once simply nodded obediently and left the medbay. Jazz having random moments of silence had become nothing new to the residents of The Arc. It saddened all to see him reduced to almost never coming out unless for duty, or if called for a check up. But no one could ever bring him out of it. But now he had a sparkling, First Aid reasoned, things could be looking up….

He finally turned to give the twins a 'no nonsense' look but they were conferring over their bond. Sunstreaker shook his head obviously disagreeing with something. First Aid watched them for a while before the twins walked over to him cautiously. Sideswipe handed the spark over gently, and after three HARD nudges from Sideswipe so did Sunstreaker. He began the scans , completely healthy: good, gender:…..First Aid nearly stumbled and would have fallen if Sideswipe didn't catch him.

"Watch it!!" snarled Sunstreaker, holding the sparks to his chassis protectively.

Sideswipe shot his brother a glare, "Ease up will you".

"Their… Their…" First Aid stumbled across the words unsure on how to address this to the twins. "What" growled Sunstreaker but he said no more as Sideswipe obviously scolded him over their bond. How times changed.

"Femme's"

"What?"

"Their femmes"

Sideswipe grinned stupidly, while Sunstreaker breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jeez leave us in suspense then!" Sideswipe teased playfully.

"Suspense?" First Aid questioned not quite understanding what the suspense would be about in the first place.

"Well we thought you were gonna say…" Sideswipe drifted off uncomfortable with the ending of the sentence.

First Aid's optic's widened as he guessed what he had been implying.

"No no no I was just amazed that's all"

"Would be from all of Sideswipes femininity" Sunstreaker smirked,

"Just too gorgeous for my own good!" retorted his twin.

First Aid observed the now rare banter from the twins, though he couldn't hold back the laughter at Sideswipes 'femininity'.

"Well time to hit the hay" Sideswipe picked up his spark from Sunstreaker and headed out the door, "see ya 'Aid".

Sunstreaker hung back a little looking as though he was going to say something, this unnerved First Aid slightly.

"I'm sorry" he spoke quietly but loud enough for First Aid to hear, he could only stare in shock at the retreating yellow form.
