Ratchet was quickly and delicately working on Starscream in the surgical suite with Red Alert and First Aid while Optimus Prime and Ironhide tried to calm down the distraught Sunstreaker, who was pacing the floor, not just like an expectant father, but like a worried spouse, as Sunny was deeply concerned about what had happened to his sparkmate. Sunny did not like being kept out in the waiting area while his sparklings and his sparkmate lay on the surgical table hoping to survive.
In the surgical suite, Ratchet had removed the abdominal armor and was shocked by what he saw, Starscream's sparkling development chamber was rupturing, slowly killing Starscream and the three little femmes inside. Ratchet knew he had no choice but to remove the entire chamber out, as the sparklings had to come out as well. The pink discoloration on the seeker's abdomen was the sign since the beginning that the seeker's chamber was defective, but it was not caught till now. And the reason it was defective was due to the Decepticon medic that had helped Starscream give birth to Sunscream, and had accidentally nicked the chamber upon the removal of the large sparkling, but had never repaired it.
But before they could reach the defective chamber to get it out to save the seeker, they had to remove the little femme sparklings, whose sparks were moving much too slowly for unborn sparklings. Ratchet reached in and grabbed the first one he could get a hold of, a little fire engine red racer with yellow trim. Ratchet passed the little femme off to First Aid, who revived the little one before placing her into the special berth. She was spry, but she did not want to remain in the berth, as she wanted to be held and be held now!
Next, Ratchet pulled out a royal blue Lamborghini with white and red trim and silver optics. Ratchet also handed this little femme off to First Aid, but this little one was crying as First Aid received it, so there was little needed to revive this little one. First Aid had to laugh as this second one had definitely inherited Sunny's sense of humor as she sprayed sparking fluid everywhere, some even landing on First aid's faceplate. Yep, definitely Sunny's kid.
However, the last one was going to be tricky as she was buried far down in the chamber and she was leaking precious energon. She had the energon cord wrapped around her little neck. Ratchet did his best to quickly get at her as her little life depended on how fast he could reach her, and with every second that went by, she was slowly slipping away.
Ratchet worked faster than Red Alert and First Aid had ever seen him move before, and soon the little one was repaired and the energon cord was cut and taken from around her precious little neck. But even after the cord was cut and removed, the little one remained barely online and deep purple in color. Ratchet, after removing the defective sparkling development chamber, went to perform a dangerous procedure, a spark rubbing, to save the tiny little femme. It was the only way he could think of to save this precious little sparkling.
Everyone held their collective breath as Ratchet tried to save the little one while Red Alert repaired Starscream and his energon leaking innards. It was quiet enough to hear a pin drop from across the room. And while all hoped that everyone made it through, there was no way of knowing what was going to happen. As Ratchet continued to rub the little spark, he soon was overwhelmed, as the spunky little femme came back online. The purple faded, and her true colors could be seen. She was blue, red and yellow, with a "birth mark" of a diamond-shaped form with a picture of a star and a sun inside. It was right on her little chest plate. Ratchet was unable to relax as he still had the great big seeker to worry about. And so ratchet quickly ran another energon drip into the seeker, and found that the seeker was keeping fluids n and not losing them. Ratchet could now go tell the others the happy news, but he was not expecting what he found outside the surgical suite.
Ratchet came out, hoping to talk to Sunstreaker only to find him passed out on the floor. Sunstreaker had been so worried about his sparkmate that he had forgotten to drink enough energon, and hence had passed out. Ratchet grumbled, but helped Ironhide and Optimus prime peel the Lamborghini off the floor and onto a med berth so that he too could receive an energon infusion. Ratchet, exhausted by what had just happened, finally settled down as it appeared that Sunstreaker was getting his color back and was starting to come around. Within 30 earth minutes, Sunstreaker was back on his feet and feeling much better, but he was still worried about his sparkmate who was still in the surgical suite.
Ratchet informed Sunstreaker about the births of the three femme sparklings. Sunny wanted to take a look at them, and so First Aid brought out the little femmes. Sunny was amazed as he looked at the little ones. They were so precious. Then he remembered that they still needed names. For the first femme, the little red and yellow one, he named her Blaze. For the second one, the royal blue with red and white trim and silver optics, he named her Bluebonnet. And for the last little one who was quite the little firecracker, he named her Sunstar, due to her "birthmark." Sunny was so happy, but then he felt a pain in his spark, as his he could feel that his awaking sparkmate was in a lot of pain. Sunstreaker, ignoring Ratchet' warnings, ran into the surgical suite and hugged his sparkmate. Fortunately, Starscream was all repaired.
Soon, Starscream came back online. Sunny was happy, but Starscream could tell that something was bothering his sparkmate. It was then that Sunny told Starscream that Ratchet had to remove the seeker's sparkling development chamber, and so while Screamer would be able to help produce sparklings, he would not be able to carry any more. Starscream, not wanting to carry anymore after his ordeal, and Sunstreaker talked and made the decision that for now they would lay off having any more sparklings, as they had 8 already and now it was time to raise the ones they had.
And so, after a couple of days in the intensive care of the med bay, Starscream and the little femme sparklings were released from the med bay, healthy as ever. And Sunny and Screamer brought the little femmes home to meet their brothers. All the little mechs wanted to meet their little sisters. Starstreaker and Sunscream helped Afterburner, Sidestreaker, and Sunburn meet the little femmes. And while Sunny and Screamer had been worried about how the boys would take having three little sisters, they need not have worried as the five mechs each took turns caring for their little sisters, with Sunscream leading the way. Boy, are the parents and creators going to have a hard time watching 8 little ones, but Starscream and Sunstreaker would not have it any other way.
