Aires was working on a special project in his room, and since it was a surprise for little Lyra, he had not been able to play energon tea party with her as much as he usually did. Aires was determined to keep this project a secret, and so not even Orion and Taurus or mom and dad were aware of what little Aries was doing. Lyra, feeling slighted, felt left out. She had tried to catch her oldest brother several times to get him to play with her, but each time, Aires was unable to join her. All little Lyra could do was return to her room and cry. She wanted to be with her brother, but he kept pushing her away. She could not understand why he kept his door closed nor why he was not able to play with her like usual, and because Sparkles could see that little Lyra was upset, Sparkles decided to take the matter into her own small hands.
And so after Lyra fell into recharge, Sparkles, along with her sister Shimmer, headed up to Aires room, determined to find out why Aires was so elusive and hurting their "big sister". Sparkles and Shimmer managed to find a way to squeeze into Aires room and saw Aires working on something. However, after remembering why they were there, they marched right up to Aires, both angry at how he was treating his sister.
Before the little minicons could speak their mind, they saw that Aires was working on a special pink table. What is with that, they thought, as Aires and his brothers did not like pink, but Lyra did. As soon as the little minicon sparklings beeped, Aires jumped. They had caught him completely off guard. Aires turned quickly to find Sparkles and Shimmer looking at him. He could tell that they were upset but that they were also surprised. Aires, feeling he had no choice, welcomed the little minicon sparklings to take a look at what he was working on. Sparkles and Shimmer were surprised when they saw the soft pink sparkling sized table that Aires had made especially for his little sister. Sparkles and Shimmer could see that Aires had even marked special places, such as the place where Samkalia usually sat and there were special little spots on the table where the minicon sparklings usually sat. Aires took the opportunity to check his work by having the two little sparklings sit in the areas he had created for them. They spots were made to adjust so that when the little minicons grew, it could be accomadated.
Though Sparkles and Shimmer were glad to be let in on the secret, Sparkles still had a message to deliver. Sparkles delivered her message in angry beeps and whistles, letting Aires know in no uncertain terms that Sparkles was not happy with the way that Aires was handling the situation. Sparkles also informed Aires of how much required "secrecy" was hurting Lyra. It was then that Aires was saddened. He did not want to hurt little Lyra. And so taking a break, as the special gift was finished, Aires headed to Lyra's room and found little Lyra asleep.
Aires knew exactly what to do. Since Lyra was asleep, he brought down the specially made table and began to set it. The pink tea pot, pink cups, and even pink "strawberry flavored" energon sat on the table as Aires also set all the guests in their proper places. After preparing for the special tea party, Aires woke little Lyra up. Lyra was surprised, as she had thought Aires had wanted nothing to do with her, but that is when she noticed the specially made table, painted in pink with spots for all of her guests, regulars and non-regulars. Lyra, now realizing why Aires was hiding in his room, gave him a big hug before he set her down on the floor. And as Lyra began playing the perfect hostess, Aires just smiled as he knew Lyra would use his gift to her for many years to come.
