Chapter 11:
Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end. ~Author Unknown
Light, brilliant, blinding light.
Radiance humming, brightness singing, a song so old, so new.
Orbs, globes, bubbles, stars flowing in a river of light.
I lost you.
You found me.
Who are we?
Where are we?
Does it matter?
No, I suppose it doesn't.
We have to go back.
Will you wait for me?
Of course.
You will not lose me again?
Never.

Spike was not happy.
He was sitting in his crib where 'Hide put him for his nap. He didn't want a nap, he was too old for naps; he wanted to see Jazz and Prowl's new sparkling. While there were other sparklings, he and the new sparkling were the only ones without the help something called the AllSpark.
Unlike Spike though, the new sparkling wasn't a surprise for Prowl as Spike had been for 'Hide. Jazz and Prowl's new sparkling had been born only a few years ago so it would be really, really tiny and really, really fragile.
Spike promised to be really, really careful but they still wouldn't let him see it. Not fair! All he knew was that sparkling's name was Goldbug. Since they weren't gonna show him, he would go look himself, Spike decided but first he had to get out of this crib. Having gotten out before he knew to throw his blanket and one of his pillows over the rail 'cause the ground was hard.
Last was his stuff toy Mojo. He stacked the rest of the pillows and got on top of them, then pulled himself the rest of the way up. Leaning forwards a bit he swung his legs up and over the rail. Hanging for moment on the other side, he dropped down onto the blanket on the floor.
He grabbed Mojo and crept quietly over to the door. It squeaked loudly when he opened it. He stayed still but when he didn't hear footsteps coming, he peered out the doorway.
Seeing no one, he crept out into the all empty hallway. It was easy to get to Jazz and Prowl's room from his creators' room; it was just down the hallway. The hard part was getting the door open. It took him three times to get it, but he managed it.
Thankfully the room was empty of adult mechs and Spike made a beeline for the yellow crib in the back of the room. Inside, sleeping among the soft blankets was the cutest, prettiest sparkling ever, Spike was sure. Surer than sure.
He was so small, with black and yellow plating, very different from Spike's blue and silver. Then Goldbug opened his eyes. They were the prettiest, most beautifulest blue ever.
He knew those eyes, didn't he?
Shaking off the weird feeling, Spike felt suddenly shy. What if Goldbug didn't like him? "Hi." Spike whispered.
Goldbug giggled and chirped "hi," back at him.
Spike was in love.
Then he noticed it was a little cool in the room. What if Goldbug got cold? He could get sick. As the older of the two, it was his responsibility to look after the younger ones like Optimus said when he talked to earth born sparklings. Spike pushed Mojo through the bars of the crib. Looking around, he sat a chair on wheels by a desk. He pushed the chair close the crib and climbed up. Then it was up and over the rail and he was in the crib.
Goldbug giggled as he crawled jerkily over to Spike. When Goldbug got to him, he threw his arm around Spike, squealing, "Mine!"
Spike hugged him right back as he snuggled the blankets around them so Goldbug wouldn't catch a virus. Goldbug nuzzled Spike with a yawn. He was probably sleepy 'cause it was naptime. Cuddling close, Spike didn't mind didn't mind taking a nap with Goldbug, even if he was too old for naps and he wasn't a bit sle…

It was the giggling that lead him to the mischief-makers.
He looked around the corner, taking in the sight of the first two Sparkling born on earth without the aid of the AllSpark. The mischievous pair was happily munching on Energon goodies while cuddling on top of a storage cabinet, where the container had been kept so it would be out of their reach.
How they got up there was a mystery. A new place would have to be found for the Energon goodies though.
Vorns ago it was almost guaranteed that his people were facing extinction, even after the war had ended with the destruction of the AllSpark, when it was discovered Ironhide of all mechs was carrying the knowledge that would save their race as well as something else.
A sparkling.
He suppressed a chuckle at the memory of the ornery old mech's face when he was told. A look that was mirrored by Ratchet, who bemoaned the fact that Ironhide's demented programming would be passed on to the next generation and that they could only hope that his programming would mellow Ironhide's in the sparkling.
An earth year later, Spike was born. One the most feared mechs in the former Autobot Army had held the tiny sparkling so gently, cooing over him for hours. It had been a time of great joy as well as sorrow. Joy because their race would not die out, that they could truly make earth their home and sorrow because they would never see Cybertron again, there were so many that would not see this new beginning.
It was something that weighed so heavily on his spark at times.
But others had answered the message that went out to the stars, calling them to their new home. When Prowl made it earth, he and Jazz reunited, finally bonding now that the war was over. A year later, there was Goldbug.
The thought of more sparklings warmed his spark as more of his race made their way to earth.
Once Spike had found Goldbug, the two were inseparable. A bond had clicked into place between them as if it had always been there.
"…does that make you my guardian angel?" The giggling voice of Spike drifted in the air.
"I can be your hero, baby," the weak warble from Goldbug's speakers followed.
"What are you doing, little ones?" He asked revealing himself as he walked over. It was getting close to the sparklings nap time, and a missed nap meant cranky sparklings. Both sparklings jumped at the sound of his voice.
"Optimus!" Spike whined, snuggling against Goldbug, "Don't do that!"
"Op-tim-us want?" Goldbug asked solemnly offering him a half eaten Energon goodie.
"Thank you," Optimus took the goodie just as solemnly, "You both know better than to sneak Energon goodies."
"We were hungry." They chorused sleepily as he scooped both sparklings into his arms. Most likely they had eaten enough to become sleepy though once they rested…the excess energy would make them hyper and even more mischievous.
He pitied their babysitters.
As he walked down the hallway with his precious cargo, he couldn't help but be amazed how those who were so small could effect such an immense change.
How they could fill the world with such hope.
The End.

Author notes:
Ta da! It's done!
Happy Valentine's Day!
This just wouldn't leave me alone until I finished it to the point I've ignored quite a bit of my homework. -.-; I'm so thrilled my first fanfic turned out so well.
So Spike is Sam and Goldbug is Bumblebee reborn, and their back together. Awwww.
I told you everything would okay didn't I?
I have a fondness for the Jazz/Prowl and for Ironhide/Ratchet pairing. With all the pairings, Valentine's Day seemed perfect to post the ending.
