Stupid Autobots and their glitch of a base commander Windstorm. I can't believe he had the audacity to tell me, no order me to stay silent. Just because we are at peace right now gives him no authority over me. She should know, the whole of Cybertron should know! This makes my oil pressure rise but then again he did not specify that I could not write it down for the record. Heh, I love technicalities. Ok getting focused again. Well everyone old and new has heard about Skywarp in some fashion and if they haven't, well they should just crawl into the pits. But really he was a popular mech, great friend (well to those he liked anyway), in with Megatrons elite guard, wing mates with Thundercracker and the …ugh…air commander Starscream. On that note I really, really do not like Starscream. He was such a pompous, arrogant, self conceded, conniving, loud mouthed leader wannabe. Ok enough of my ranting on that. Sure Skywarp was all that, yet at the same time he was an annoying prankster, had the attention span of a petro rabbit and needed constant direction but that was really all a front. Before I go on I must warn you. What you will read in the following entries will show you a side of him that nobody but myself and a select few, primus guard their sparks, knew about Skywarp.

So as I was saying, Skywarp had another side that even Megatron himself did not know about. I still can't believe he pulled that off and nobody found out because really Skywarp is not known for secrecy. He was the one that loved to know about every and anymechs private life. He was ah what do the earthlings call it…oh yes gossiper. Mech, could he ever spread the word. Who needs communication links when you had Skywarp. I am sure he could get word around faster than Soundwave. Oh! I am off track again. Ok focus, so what was it you may be wondering? Well he had a drive, no wait an urge, no that's not it…oh what did he call it? Ah yes! "A sudden sensory explosion to create something new". Now this was not something such as a new weapon (which never worked) or prank contraption (which unfortunately did). No, what he wanted was something no mech would have believed then or even now. This desire was so uncharacteristic of him that he only confided and sot help from a trusted few (of which sadly I am the only remaining one). Skywarps secret was that he wanted to create life, he wanted a sparkling.

Yah, shocking for you? Well you should have seen my face plate when he told me himself. At first I didn't believe him either but I also knew at that moment he was being serious. I should know, I was his closest friend and I had never seen him like that before or since. Thinking about it now I believe it came about from his interactions with my own sparkling. Oh those were the days. Skywarp always dropped by and played with the little one. I remember his favorite game was when Skywarp would pick him up and warp him around the base. Oh how he loved that. It threw off his equilibrium but he laughed the whole time. I could see that Skywarp himself was becoming attached to him because when it happened….No. I will not go there, that still hurts too much and this is Skywarps story not my own.

So back to my purpose for writing this. Contained within are my own reflections and memories of the event but in addition they are supplemented by Skywarps own personal journal entries. I was privy to that information after his unfortunate demise. All the more reason I hate Starscream but then again he got what was coming to him. Although he might be out there still as rumor has it that he had a mutated spark... However my own feelings, I implore you to use your own judgment to decide if the time is right for the world to know the truth. Since you are reading this I assume I am no longer around to, well spread the word myself.

Oh! she stirs so I better turn this off. Maybe you know how sparklings are when they wake up. Always inquisitive and full of energy so it is not good to be working on something she is not to know of.

Hum. Interesting indeed. I would never have guessed that. He never came across to me as having an interest in sparklings. But then again that would explain all those…. Now when did this take place and how did he get away with no mech finding out "Computer display the next record."
