Arabella's pov

I hate not being around my kids. Sure some moms at a point in time say that they need to get away from their kids but I am not there yet. I had training this morning which means that my sparklings would have to spend that time with someone else. I decided that Arcee and Bee together would be able to handle them. As a general rule I don't want my kids left with only one person. The odds would not be in that person's favor. So after I dropped them off I made my way to the training room where I saw Tia dancing. Hmmm. When was the last time that I danced with her? Especially to hip hop? I quickly decided and fell into step with her using my holoform. We continued on laughing as we went, until we heard a low wolf whistle.

Cadet: "Day-am! I had no idea that this base came equipped with fine ass civilians."

Kyler walked in right after he said that. And Boy does he look mad.

Kyler: "Michael back the fuck off."

Michael: "Why? Last I checked, you were single."

My brother grabbed him by his shirt and held him at eye level.

Kyler: "That is my little sister you creep."

He growled out.

Michael: "No...no way! Your sister is-"

Me: "Right here."

I called out from where I was leaning against the wall. Oh joy everyone else is arriving now. Aaaaannnnd my sparklings are upset. Must resist the urge to check on them.

Me: "Fun fact about us, we can project holoforms. Usually our Holoforms are what we would look like if we were human. This is what I used to look like."

I said as I extinguished my holoform.

Will: "Well I see you've began learning lesson one with working with them, expect the unexpected. For example; Tia mind transforming for us?"

Tia obliged, going from her pretender mode into her alt and then into her bipedal. everyone stared.

Tia: "Kinda leaves ya speech less doesn't it?"

Will: "All right enough fun! Time to run! Lets go! 14 laps around the island."

He commanded as they all left for their jog. Before I could move I was greeted with a very loud wail. Turing I saw Bee and Arcee walking towards me with four very upset sparklings.

Me: "Awww, what happened?"

Bee: "I WANT MY MOMMY!"

A child cried over his radio. I took Nightsinger from him and snuggled her close. I knew that it was too soon. But I can't spend all my time with them, I have other responsibilities too.

Me: "Chromia, would you mind if-"

Chromia: "So long as they don't cause mischief and they stop crying its fine with me."

She said as she smiled gently at them.

Me: "Can you four do that? Will you be good and stop crying for me and for Arcee and Bee?"

I was met with a chorus of watery chirps and clicks. Arcee and Bee set down a blanket and some toys for them to play with, much to my sparklings delight. I watched as they crawled about with the toys clicking and squeaking happily. It was an hour before Will and the others returned, exhausted. Well Will wasnt, everyone else was.

Kyler: "Pain. Everywhere...pain!"

He said dramatically as he collapsed to the floor making Maverick giggle.

Kyler: "At least he found it funny. I can die happy knowing that I made my nephew laugh."

Now all of the sparklings were giggling, they found him to be quite hilarious.

Will: "On your feet soldier, You still have sparring practice to go through."

Kyler: "I know, so long as I don't have to fight my sister."

Michael: "Whats the big deal about fighting her? She'll be using a hologram."

Me: "Thank you for volunteering to go first."

I said as I materialized in front of him. Pulse clicked at me indicating that he was hungry. I picked him up and began feeding him, (I came prepared. Ask any mom, you always carry an extra bottle just in in my case four.)Arcee, Chromia, and Bee picked up his siblings and began to feed them too. With the quads, you have to feed them at the same time. If you dont then they feel neglected and will cry until you've fed them. We learned that the hard way...I'm still trying to catch up on sleep from that night.

Michael: "All right lets do this!"

Kyler: "Dude you are so over."

Michael: "I think I can take her. You know what I'm capable of."

Kyler: "I do, and again, dude you are so over!"

He chuckled as room was made for us to spar. I smirked. I love a good match. Upon his first move I countered and blocked. On his second I knocked his legs out from underneath him. And before he could make his third I wrapped him in a headlock making him gasp and slap my arm indicating that he A) Wanted air. And B) Realized he had lost.

Me: "That was easy. Another fun fact about us, we can make our holoforms solid. You should probably remember that."

I muttered as I let him go.

Hide: "Nicely done. I didn't think you had it in you to do that."

Chromia: "Now I remember why Elita made you the warrior trainer. Since you were once human, you know how much one can take."

Me: "And I don't have any qualms about hurting one either. Well I do, but not like you guys."

Kyler: "I tried to tell you. Now do you want to admit to losing to a 16 year old girl, a 20 thousand year old girl, or to a holoform of a girl? Take your pick they're all funny."

He laughed. He does a have a good point, it is kinda funny. The rest of the morning was spent sparing in our holoforms, which was fun because while I spared, I could also play with my sparklings who were loving the attention.

Intercom: "Will the following bots please report to Medbay; Ironhide, Chromia, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Arabella, Pulse, Maverick,Freezefire, Nightsinger. Again please report to the Medbay immediately."

Me: "Well, looks like its time for your check up. C'mon sweetsparks, lets go see Ratchet."

I cooed at them as Arcee and I carried them to Medbay. Meanwhile Ironhide tried to sneak off. I dont blame him, Ratchet could be a little rough around the edges.

Chromia: "Oh no you don't! You're getting your exam right now!"

Hide: "But Mia! I dont need one, I feel fine!"

Chromia: "Okay, fine but know that I will do nothing to stop him if Ratchet or the others come after you."

She said as she walked with us to the Medbay, where Ratchet was waiting with a smile. Primus he kinda looks scary like that. He's up to something.

Ratchet: "Aw! There they are! How are my newest patients?"

Me: "Oh they're good, though they don't seem to like being too far away from me and the boys."

Ratchet: "That's to be expected, their split sparked,so their bonds are a little stronger than most sparklings. Now why don't we do your check up first, that way they know what to expect."

Me: "Okay. I'm going to assume that Sunny and Sides are going to hide from you today. No I don't know where."

I said as I hopped onto a berth. The sparklings watched curiously through the whole thing. I'm not sure why but Pulse took some serious interest in what Ratchet was doing. Finally it was their turn. Since he took interest in what Ratchet was doing, I figured it was only a good idea for Pulse to go first. Boy was I wrong.

Pulse: "Mehh! Chiiiirp!"

Ratchet: "Easy there little one. I'm not going to hurt you. I promise. Just hold still."

Me: "Pulse, big bots don't break promises. I promise that I won't let him hurt you."

I said as Ratchet scanned him. He squeaked in surprise at the feeling of the scan. Much to my relief he began to giggle. Apparently it must have tickled, because Maverick, Nightsinger and Freezefire smiled brightly at him as they all felt his mirth.

Ratchet: "Atta mech! See, you're being very brave. Unlike your fathers, who are too scared to come see me."

Pulse: "Whirr?"

Pulse almost seemed to ask. He and his siblings all had their heads tilted to the side as if they were surprised that he would say such a thing.

Ratchet: "Alright all done. Who's next?"

He asked. One after the other I handed him my kids, each growing fonder of him after seeing that he didnt harm their brothers and sisters. Finally when Ratchet was done he turned to me with a slightly sympathetic look in his optics.

Me: "Okay, what's wrong, you're scaring me."

Ratchet: "Well...do you want the good news, the bad news or the strange news first?"

Me: "Bad."

Ratchet: "I have to give them three booster vaccines, two of which are shots."

Me: "Oh. Okay...and the good news is?"

Ratchet: "One is oral, and your husbands will rush in here when they feel your sparklings distress."

Me: "HOW IS THAT SECOND ONE GOOD?! Primus! What is wrong with you?!"

Ratchet: " Do you honestly think I want to do this?! I don't like this anymore than you do! But it's for their own good! (SIGH) We'll give them the oral vaccine first, then we'll give them the shots."

He mumbled as he pulled out a large spoon and some seriously nasty looking syrupy slime. He poured a spoonful and offered it to Pulse.

Ratchet: "Okay little mech, open wide and say ahhhh! Ah good job!"

Pulse swallowed the solution with a very upset face. He then proceeded to take his servos and try to wipe his glossa clean.

Me: "Pulse...none of that now. That stuff is supposed to make you healthy."

Pulse: "Whirr! Beep click, chirp squeak!"

And just like before the other sparklings responded to his mood. Oh how wonderful. One after the other tried to refuse Ratchet's vaccine. It was only after I would poke them gently in their sides that he could give them the syrup. They did not take it well, especially Nightsinger. She kept spitting it back up, which only meant that she would have to get more. Finally after the fifth time she kept it down, only to whine in fright of the needle that Ratchet was holding.

Me: "Shhh, shh. Its okay, Ratchet is only going to give you a small pinch and then you'll be all done. Okay?"

They all shook their helms in a very prominent no fashion, as tears began to form. Please Primus, not that cry. Not the "I'm-scared-I-want-my-mommy/daddies-right-damn-now" cry.

N.P.F.M: "WAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! AEH! AEH! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Ratchet: "Primus! Please make them stop! For the love of Cybertron make them stop!"

Wow, four sparklings brought the infamous Ratchet the Hatchet to his knees. I'd find that impressive if I didn't have my own hands clasped to my audios in pain. Its amazing how they can all explode like that in tandem.

Me: "Shh, shh, you're okay, it's okay. Ratchet would never hurt you. Please don't cry."

I said desperately as I bounced Maverick up and down. They continued to wail, while I mentally kicked and berated Sunny and Sides over our bond, in hopes of getting them to come to my aid. I swear to Primus if they dont-

Sides: "What happened?! Ratchet!"

Ratchet: "I didn't do anything to them you glitch head!"

Sunny: "Shhh, c'mere I wont let the evil medic hurt you anymore, I promise."

He cooed at them. Somehow Sideswipe and Sunstreaker got them to stop crying in a matter of minutes, which was long enough for Ratchet to explain what had to happen.

Sides: "Do they have to? I don't like this one bit."

Ratchet: "I know, but they need their shots. As unlikely it is for them to contract cybonic plague or cosmic rust, they still need to be protected just in case they come in contact with it or with somebot who has it."

Sunny and Sides looked at each other woefully. They hate shots, heck they hate the Medbay. It's only natural that they didn't want our sparklings to have to experience such things, but at the same time I think they know that they have to do it. But they don't like it. None of us do.

Sunny: "(Sigh) Where do they need to get the shot?"

Ratchet: "In the arm. It'll only take a nano klik if you hold them still."

Sides: "I'm so sorry Nightsinger, hurry up Ratch."

He said guiltily as he held her little arm out. It happened so fast that even I was stunned. Before Nightsinger could even begin to cry, he had given her the two shots, and put a small bandage on her arm.

Ratchet: "There we go! All done! And because you were such a good girl, you can have a lollipop."

He cooed with a kind smile as he handed her the lolly.

Me: "Where did you get those? I thought you were like totally anti-sugar."

Ratchet: "I am, but from past experiences I thought that it wouldn't be bad to have a bribe for them. Okay, next sparkling. C'mon I still have an entire base of allies to check over!"

He grumped. I love my sparklings. After they saw Nightsinger with her lolly, they all wanted to get a shot so they could have one. They didn't even bat an optic at the needle, well Maverick did, but Pulse grabbed his servo and nuzzled him for comfort, while Nightsinger and Freezefire chirped their encouragement.

Sides: "Awww, look they're so supportive! Remind you of anyone bro?"

Sunny: "Yeah. Well thank you Ratchet. We should-"

Ratchet: "Not so fast. You two still need your check up."

S.S: "Run!"

Jolt: "Oh no you don't! You two aren't going anywhere."

He said as he blocked the door. Sunny and Sides stopped dead in their tracks.

Sunny: "Jolt. Move out of the way."

Sides: "We feel fine, we don't need a maintenance exam."

Ratchet: "I will be the judge of that. Now hold still."

He threatened with his signature wrench. They stood still just long enough for Ratchet to give them a scan.

Ratchet: "Good, your systems seem to operating well. Now if you two will kindly take a seat on this berth, I can get the rest out of the way."

Sides: "Seriously? You just said our systems were fine."

Whang!

S.S: "Owwwww!"

They whined as they took their seats. Our sparklings clicked back and forth probably wondering about why their daddies are such babies when it comes to their check ups. (Hey I can say it, I'm married to them.)

Ratchet: "Well you seem to be in near perfect health. Lay off the sweets. Bella-"

Me: "I know, I know, I know. I feel bad for the soldiers though cause I'm pretty sure that they nearly live off of my goodies. And I haven't baked since before the sparklings were born."

Ratchet: "Hmmm. I may have to look into that. Alright you two are free to go, just as soon as you get your cosmic rust shots and after I show you the strange news."

Sides: "SHOTS?!"

Sunny: "WHAT STRANGE NEWS?!"

Freezefire: "BA! Click, whirr!"

Pulse: "Ehh. Chirp click?"

Ratchet: "Yes little ones. Even big bots need to get their shots too. And it's about time that your daddy's got theirs."

Maverick: "Beeep."

He said as they reached for Sunny and Sides. When they picked them up, they all grabbed their massive servos, for comfort.

Me: "That's sweet."

Nightsinger: "Warble. Click chiiirp."

She said beaming up at them as if she were telling them not to be afraid.

Sides: "Aww, thanks bitlets."

Sunny: "We love you too."

POKE

S.S: "AH!"

Ratchet: "There now that wasn't so bad was it?"

Sides: "I hate it when he says that."

Sunny: "Especially since he knows we hate shots."

He said as he cuddled Maverick close.

Pulse: "Squeak!"

Ratchet: "Huh? Oh, those are only for you guys."

Nightsinger whined as she pointed insistently at the cabinet where the bribes were held.

Ratchet: "(Sigh) I suppose you're right. They did behave... for once."

He said as he gave my husbands lollipops for good behavior.

Sides: "Wow! Thanks Ratch!"

Sunny: "See? I think he's growing on us!"

He said with a smirk as he ate his candy.

Ratchet: "Primus don't make me regret giving you those. Now for the strange news."

Me: "Is there something wrong with the sparklings?"

Ratchet: "I'm not sure. Let me ask you this; how long have they been able to crawl?"

Sides: "Hmmm, bout 2 days after they were released from here they started doing it."

Ratchet: "That is peculiar. Most sparklings don't begin crawling until they're two weeks old, usually older."

Me: "When are their other milestones going to happen? Like walking and talking?"

Ratchet: "Hmm. I suppose since they are moving an average of 2 weeks faster than most sparklings, I think they will be able to take small steps in about a month, maybe two. And depending who is around them, they might be able to speak or rather say small words in a matter of weeks.

Me: "So soon?! That's it! No more cursing around them! I swear if Hide teaches them swear words..."

Sides: "Easy bae. We'll worry about that a little bit later."

Sunny: "And this is strange how? We knew that they'd be smart. You're not telling us something."

Ratchet: "Well... I found something interesting about their scans."

Sunny: "Which is?!"

Ratchet: "Hmph. Impatient little...Nightsinger and Pulse's t-cogs are near fully developed. Maverick's and Freezfire's are not very far behind, maybe two weeks."

The room fell silent for a few minutes, allowing our sparklings to get comfortable and fall into a light recharge. I was the first to ask the question that no doubt was on a few bots minds.

Me: "Ummm. First of all what is a t-cog. Second is it a bad thing that they're under developed?"

Jolt: "Our t-cog is what allows us as a species to transform. Without this organ we wouldn't be able to do so."

Ratchet: "Further more, this organ does not usually finish developing until late youngling hood."

Sides: "So does this mean that in a few month's time we'll have four baby lambos to run after?! AWW YEAH! THIS'LL BE SO EPIC!"

Sunny: "Siders! We definitely gotta take them through the car wash! They'll love it! Well, Pulse and Freezefire will!"

They nearly shouted at the top of their intakes. Somehow, the sparklings didn't wake up. Thank Primus.

Ratchet: "HOLD IT! Not once did I say that they'd be able to take your alts, not to forget to mention that they shouldn't learn to drive at such a young age. Now, here's where I burst your hopes. Well, slightly. Their t-cogs appear to look like Arabella's."

Me: "Wait, mine looks different than theirs?"

Jolt: "Yes. Both your and Tia's t-cogs are slightly different than ours. You two have multiple alts. Therefore, your t-cogs are slightly bigger and are shaped differently."

Me: "So rather, than having four baby lambos racing around...we could have four baby cyber jaguars running around?"

Ratchet: "More than likely yes. Now I imagine having found this out, you'd wanna rush out and tell everyone the great news."

Sides: "Well actually-"

Ratchet: "You seven are under peede. Out."

He said gently as not to disturb the napping sparklings. We left the Medbay as Moonracer was dragging Ironhide in by his audio, all while he complained. Well, we sure have a lot to talk about. (SIGH) This parenting thing seems to only get harder as you go. Now we know that the game has definitely changed.


A/N: Alright, there you have it chapter 2. Now is where I ask you my beloved readers...what do you think the sparklings should do first? Talk or walk? Both will happen and will lead to plenty of fun. Let me know in the reviews please! Please also follow and favorite!

peace love and quadruplets!

CLYL! 🌠💜🌠💚
