Chapter 10

Rodimua watched as her son played with Grimlock's tail. The Dinobot leader looked like he was having a great time playing with Orion. The Dinobots were the perfect babysitters for the little sparkling as even though they were adults the Dinobots were still mentally like a sparkling.

"Grimlock could you to watch Orion for a while? I need to take care of some important business." Rodimua asked as she let out a smile as she saw Orion jump on Swoop's back and let out a squeak.

"Me Grimlock watch Sparkling while you Rodimua go work on your paperwork." Grimlock said with a grin on his face.

Rodimua just glared at her son's favorite babysitters. Somehow they always knew what was going on. That was why Rodimua always gave them more credit than others gave them. Despite having the mentally of a toddler they were smart toddlers.

The femme Prime walked over to her son and picked him up. "I want you to behave for Grimlock and his team while I take care of some things." Rodimua told her son as she brought his face up to hers and rubbed her nose with his.

Orion let out a small squeak as his mother rubbed her nose with his. He loved it when his mother did that. He felt himself being picked up by another set of arms and cradled to a warm chassis.

"Take care of yourself Dinobots and be careful." Rodimua said waving good bye to her son who had just learned to wave.

Rodimua headed straight to her office to finish the mountain of paperwork that had piled up when she was on maternity leave. Ultra Magnus did his best to do what he could but even he couldn't make a dent into anything.

Rodimua knew that she had a duty to the Autobots but she also had a duty to her son. She wasn't going to be a workaholic mother and not spent anytime with her son. That was out of the question. Her son would always be the most important in her life no matter what.

Once Rodimua was in her office and the door was shut, she slid down against the door and started to cry. She was crying about the fact the Orion would only know his father only through the stories that would be told by the fellow Autobots. She cried because her father may never wake up due to the damages he had sustained from Megatron. She cried just because it was the only thing she could control at the moment.

Suddenly her comm started to beep. First Aid's voice came on the line. "Rodimua I need you to come to the med bay right away." The young medic calmly said.

Thinking that something was wrong with the injured Autobots Rodimua ran as fast as she could to the med bay. As she was nearing the med bay she heard a voice that she thought that she would never hear again.

"First Aid I don't care if you are a medic I am fine. I want to see my children now." Prowl's voice was heard through the open door.

"Prowl, you and the others can't leave the med bay just yet. You only just woke up a few moments ago and are still recovering from your injuries. Besides I call your daughter a moment ago. She should be arriving any moment." First Aid said. He held his hand up to show that he wasn't done talking . "One think that I should tell you is that a lot of things have changed. Optimus was killed by Megatron who was injured by Optimus just before he was killed. From what we know Unicron reformatted Megatron into Galvatron and Skywarp and Thundercracker and the Insecticons were reformatted into Cyclonis and Scourge and the Sweeps." First Aid said and began telling the group everything other than the part about Hot Rod becoming the new leader of the Autobots. He wanted to see the look of their faces when Rodimua came through the door. The medic also left out the part about Orion also wanting to see the face of Prowl when he found out that he was a grandfather.

"So who the new Prime?" Ironhide asked wincing a little as he moved his leg a little to hard.

"You'll see." First Aid said with a smirk on his face. "If fact the new Prime is just right outside the door."

Rodimua took that as a sign to go into the med bay. She couldn't wait to see her father and had a feeling that he would be in for quite a shock when he and the others saw her. Rodimua took a deep breath and entered the med bay.

Prowl couldn't believe that he was seeing his daughter after being away from her and her brother for so long. But there was something very different about her. Something that he couldn't place.

"Whoa Roddi did you grow up in the years that we haven't seen you." Ironhide said with a smile.

"I have to agree with Ironhide on this. You do look a little more older and mature than you should." Ratchet pointed out his two cents.

First Aid gave a smile and opened his mouth. "Allow me to introduce to you the new leader of the Autobots, Rodimua Prime." First Aid counted backwards from three and when he reach three all slag broke out.

"WHAT!"

Rodimua and First Aid covered there audios receptors and when the yelling was done they check to see if they still had hearing which by some miracle they did.

"Are you say that my daughter who in my optics is barely out of her youngling years is the one that will light our darkest hour and is now the leader of the Autobots?" Prowl said after he somehow managed to find his voice.

"The matrix chose her Prowl. She tried to give back to Magnus but the Matrix refused to budge from her spark chamber. She is the leader of the Autobots and has been doing a great job at it." First Aid said as he stuck up for his 'sister'. The Protectobot knew that Prowl was just concerned for his daughter.

Just then Grimlock came in the med bay with a giggling Orion who was holding the stuff turbofox toy that Galvatron. The four injured Autobots just looked at the sparkling on the Dinobot leader's head. To them it looked like a mini Optimus with a little bit of Hot Rod as well.

"What are you doing her Grimlock? Is Orion ok?" Rodimua asked worried that her son may have done something dumb.

"Me Grimlock thought that you Rodimua would want son to met Prowl and others." The T-rex said as he pluck Orion off his head and walked over to his leader and gave him to his mother.

"SON?"

"Yes my son. Mine and Optimus's sparkling. I found out that I was carrying just after I became Prime. His name is Orion-one after his father and my idol. He was born three weeks ago." Rodimua told the group.

Four jaws hit the floor at the same time. Prowl crashed at the thought of his daughter being both a Prime and a mother and the thought of him being a grandfather. Ratchet just had a huge grin on his face after he got his jaw back in place. Brawn just stared at Orion and Ironhide had one of the biggest grins he could ever had. Not many bots knew this but Ironhide was a big softy for sparklings and younglings. He had practically raised Bumblebee.

"That went well don't ya think First Aid?" Rodimua said as she shifted her son so that he was hanging over her shoulder. She was standing over her father with a frown on her face.

Next chapter The four injured Autobot settle into a new way of life and Prowl finds out that Galvatron is tryingg to woo his daughter.

Ideas would be wonderful

I would like at least 2 reviews before uploading the next chapter. Thanks and peace out.
