chapter 2
"Smokescreen once saved my life using the forge he tends to make good judgement." Optimus said.
"Yes and he seems to be his own bot but he has your smile and spark." Elita said.
Smokescreen was out driving. He was looking at somethings. He arrived home. "Hey son how was the drive?" Optimus asked.
"It was fine." Smokescreen said.
Elita came in. "Is that a scratch?" She asked Smokescreen.
"Oh I was parked and some kid with a spiky bracelet came by on skateboard and scraped against me it was an accident." Smokescreen said.
"Oh my poor Smokescreen." Elita said.
"Elita it's just a scratch in the paint. It does seem to be affecting him." Optimus said.
"I'm fine it doesn't hurt and not harming me in any way." Smokescreen said.
"Okay. Optimus may I talk to you in private?" Elita asked through clenched teeth.
They went into a room. "Optimus you are being so unconcerned for your son!" Elita said.
"I am concerned!" Optimus said. "You didn't even care to tell me that you were pregnant!"
"I was going to tell you but I was able to contact you because they kept saying you were too busy!" Elita said. "Maybe if you should take time off for others!"
"Maybe you should not be so overprotective!" Optimus shouted.
They kept shouted Smokescreen came in and saw. "Um Elita?" Optimus said.
"Don't um Elita me!" she said. The Optimus turned her around. Elita saw Smokescreen. Smokescreen began to cry and ran off. He left Hangar E transformed and drove off.
"What's going on?" Ratchet asked.
"We just saw Smokescreen run out he looked very upset." Arcee said.
"He saw Optimus and I fighting." Elita said.
"That can be upsetting for some children. He probably left to calm down I hope he didn't run away." June said.
It has been a couple of days. "I was afraid of this." June said.
"Let's look for him no one leave no stone unturned!" Optimus ordered.
"Smokescreen." Ratchet called.
"Hey Smokey!" Bulkhead said.
"Where are Smokes?" Wheeljack called.
"Hey Smokescreen!" Arcee shouted.
Bumblebee beeped in a call for Smokescreen.
"Come on kid where are you.' Ultra Magnus said and he saw some thing it was Smokescreen he didn't look good. He looked sick. "Hang on kid you're going to be fine." Ultra Magnus said. He opened his com link. "Optimus I found him and we need Ratchet." he said.
"Good work Ultra Magnus. Ratchet, Ultra Magnus said that Smokescreen needs medical treatment." Optimus said.
They made it to the location. "We need to get Smokescreen to the Hangar." Ratchet said.
They brought him in. Ratchet began treatment. Smokescreen had a high fever. Ratchet took a look at him. "It' s Cyber strep throat. He should be fine." Ratchet said. "All Smokescreen needs is rest." Ratchet said.
"Thank the allspark." Optimus said. They went in the room to check on him.
"Mom, Dad I'm sorry." Smokescreen said.
"It's okay we're not mad we were just worried." Elita said.
"It's okay son we are just glad that you are okay." Optimus said.
"Am I grounded?" Smokescreen asked.
"No I say what you been through has been punishment enough." Optimus said. Elita agreed and kissed Smokescreen. "We are sorry too." Optimus said.
"We didn't me to upset you." Elita said.
"It's okay." Smokescreen said.
"Okay you two Smokescreen needs rest." Ratchet said.
Optimus and Elita left. "Okay kid you better get some sleep." Ratchet said.
Smokescreen did as he was told he was pretty tired. After a few days Smokescreen got better. He was just as full of energy as he always has been.
Today Optimus, Elita and Smokescreen were out together as a family. Because today was Smokescreen's birthday. They sat together in the forest. Primus had a plan he was going to turn Smokescreen into a sparkling to give him a chance at the life he deserves. Smokescreen began to glow. "Um Optimus why is our son glowing?" Elita asked.
"I don't know." he answered.
Then Optimus had a vision it was Alpha Trion he told Optimus what Primus was doing. Optimus assured Elita it was alright it was Primus' doing. Then the glowing stopped and there was Smokescreen as a little sparkling. Smokescreen began to cry. Elita picked him up.
"Oh there, there Smokescreen." she said.
Optimus requested a ground bridge. Optimus explained what happened to others when they saw Smokescreen. "He's so cute!" Miko said.
"I would like to give him a check him check up." Ratchet said. Ratchet looked at the child and saw he was healthy one day old sparkling. "He is a happy, healthy one day old mech sparkling." Ratchet said.
"That is good to know." Optimus said.
"We need to make a bassinet for him." Ratchet said.
"Doesn't he need things to play with too?" Miko asked.
"That's true he does but Smokescreen is a new born right now and all he cares about is eating and sleeping." Ratchet said.
The bassinet was finished. They also made a little mobile and got a nice soft blanket. Ratchet got out bottles and diapers because they were going to need that. Ratchet gave a bottle to Elita so she could feed the crying child. Smokescreen drank about half of the bottle before going to sleep.
It has been the end of a very eventful day. Smokescreen needed to be put to bed. Optimus set up the baby monitor so they could hear him if he cries.
Sparkling cuteness ahead!
