Yay another chapter done and I'm so happy! I'm not sure how long this will last like I said before but hope once again you all enjoy. Please read and review and idea's are welcome.

Dreadwing pushed aside some more bushes as he walked through them and held it aside for Breakdown as he came through as well. Pebbles looked around as they continued to walk in the forest, so close now and Pebbles could feel her father over there bond finally.

"Daddy?"

"Pebbles? Are you alright?"

"I'm fine daddy. Where are you?"

"I'm at the location now waiting, are you far?"

"I think so"

"I'm glad to hear. Won't be long now sweet spark, I'll have you again"

"I love you daddy, please don't do anything that will cause trouble. I just want to go home"

"And we will. I promise"

Pebbles sighed as she heard her father so that. He made too many promises and he has broke many of them but has also kept some. She didn't know any more, she just felt like there was nothing else in life and they weren't going to go back home.

As she thought they came into the open where they saw Skywarp standing in the middle of the open area looking at them and smiled seeing his daughter was alright.

"Good you followed orders" Dreadwing said coming to a stop.

"Let me have my daughter" Skywarp told him.

"You will. But only if you come back with us. If you do there will be no trouble" Dreadwing said.

"What kind of a deal is this?" Skywarp snapped.

Pebbles struggled and tried to reach out for her father, wanting to be with him and wanting to feel his warmth and touch. She whimpered when Breakdown wasn't letting her go.

Dreadwing sighed "Don't make this hard"

"Then hand over my daughter and we will leave with no problems. How hard is that?" Skywarp stepped closer.

"We are just following order's" Breakdown said.

"Can't your Megatron get it through his thick head I'm not going to join his army and my daughter and I just want to head back to our world. It's simple as that but he just has to make everything so difficult"

"Look" Dreadwing stepped forward "I don't know much about you or your universe and I don't care who you take order's from but your in this world and your stuck. Just come with us and we will find a way to get you back"

But Skywarp wasn't buying it "I don't care what you say your not changing my mind"

"This is all we came for. Are you sure?" Dreadwing wanted to ask again.

Skywarp was about to snap back at him with the same answer but then looked at him daughter. She stared at him with terror filled optics, pleading. She wanted to e held in his arms again but that wasn't going to happen if he didn't go with them. If he did they would be in the same spot they were before. If he didn't they were not going to let them get his daughter back. But all he wanted was for her to be safe.

"How about this?" He looked back at Dreadwing "You let my daughter go, let me hold her for a moment and then I will go with you. You don't need my daughter you only need me. How does that sound?"

The two decepticon's stared at him, thinking about it before Pebbles spoke up.

"N-no daddy..."

"It's alright princess. Everything will be fine" He smiled at her.

Pebbles watched him. Something wasn't right. He was smiling but it looked fake, she wasn't sure why but he had something else on his mind.

"Your willing to come with us if we let her go?" Dreadwing wasn't to sure but it was true. All Megatron needed was Skywarp.

"Yes"

Breakdown got a nod from Dreadwing and slowly set Pebbles on the ground. She was in no rush and looked at the decepticon, with soft optics before a smile appeared.

"Thank you" She whispered before running to her father.

He knelt down and scooped her up in his arms, holding her close and kissing her helm softly not caring the two decepticons were here. Skywarp heard his daughter whimper softly and hushed her gently into her audio's.

"Everything will be fine. Your my beautiful daughter and you will not be harmed by anyone"

"I-I love you daddy" She nuzzled into his neck.

"I love you too Pebbles" He smiled.

Skywarp placed his daughter on the ground and com linked Ratchet to open up a ground bridge. Once it was open he softly pushed Pebbles towards it.

"Go on it's alright"

Pebbles slowly walked backwards into the ground bridge and stared at her father trying to find what he was planning. But there was no time before she disappeared into it. Skywarp slowly turned back to face Dreadwing and let out a sigh.

Dreadwing grinned at him "You coming now?"

Skywarp looked up at him with a neutral look before it turned into a grin. Before Dreadwing could say anything Skywarp ducked and Blizzard and Ravage came jumping through the ground bridge barking and growling at the two decepticons.

"What the-" Breakdown was attacked on the leg by Blizzard and let out a yell of pain as he sunk his teeth into his leg drawing out energon. Ravage pounced onto Dreadwing, scratching his amour and digging her claws into his shoulders. He grunted at the pain before he tried to reach his arms around to grab the beast. Before either two could grab a hold on them they both jumped away and ran back into the ground bridge before it disappeared.

Dreadwing looked around and saw Skywarp was no where to be found. They were tricked and Megatron was not going to be happy.

Autobot base

Ever so tightly Skywarp held his daughter, holding her and letting her cry it out with joy she was back in his arms finally.

"It's all over. I'm here now" He told her to calm her down.

"Good plan Arcee" Bulkhead said "They would never expected that" He let out a laugh.

"Thanks to Blizzard and Ravage for distracting them as well" Arcee said looking at the two "You did well"

Skywarp placed Pebbles on the ground again and smiled seeing Blizzard and Ravage nuzzle and purr into her small body.

"Ratchet" Optimus looked over "Have you sorted out the problem?"

"I think so let's get this started" Ratchet said typing in a few things before reaching his hand over to the switch.

"Not long now" Skywarp whispered to his daughter "Were going home soon"

Pebbles smiled and watched Ratchet as he pulled the switch down making the ground bridge fizz up with energy. But a strange noise was made was made and the screen flickered off.

"Damn Scraplets!" Ratchet hit the board making it flicker up again "Nothing has been the same since the infestation"

"Scraplets?" Pebbles asked softly.

"Scraplets are the most dangers vermin ever to crawl on the face of cybertron" Ratchet warned her.

"It's alright sweetspark, back in our universe they haven't been seen for years. Before I was even sparked"

"Your lucky. Right now cybertron is crawling with them" Ratchet said letting out a shiver.

"So it's broken now?" Skywarp asked.

"Not really but a few things need fixing. But I need to get it fixed so just a little more longer before you can return"

Pebbles let out a soft sigh and looked at the ground.

Miko saw this and ran over to here smiling with joy "Hey Pebbles. Want to play some video games?"

She seemed to like this and smiled up at her "Ok"

Later that night and everyone had gone into recharge, besides Skywarp. When he put his daughter to bed he watched her for a moment, seeing her recharge in peace and a place where no one was going to harm her. H really thought he lost her today, it was much easier then he thought. He wasn't going to let that happen again, even if it meant to keep holding her closer. He then left and heading to the top of the base where he knew some quite time was what he needed. Sitting on the edge he stared up at the star's, seeing them sparkle and shine on him. As a shooting star flew above him it reminded him of Starlight.

"Starlight" He whispered "I miss you so much"

He just wished to feel her touch just one more time, hear her soft voice, see her beauty and touch her gently. Lowering his head he sighed as he got nothing back.

Then he felt a soft hand on his shoulder, rubbing gently into him. Thinking it was Starlight he reached his hand around to place it over it, holding the hand close and smiling softly.

"You ok Skywarp?" Arcee asked softly.

He spun around and saw it was Arcee who's hand was on his shoulder. Quickly he removed his hand.

"Ah hey. Sorry I didn't realise it was you"

Arcee sat next to him "Who were you expecting?"

Skywarp felt a lump in his throat but swallowed it before letting out a sigh "Sometimes when I'm alone I just wish my bond mate was here. I just think it too much before I feel her touch on my shoulder and her voice whispering in my audio's. Sorry about that"

Arcee was silent for a short moment "You really miss her, don't you?"

"Every minute of my life. I should have been there for her, been there for Pebbles but I missed thousands of years of her life. What kind of a father am I? I felt like I abandoned them"

"It's almost been two months since you've been here and so far I see you as a good father. Your a father that loves his daughter very much and misses his bond mate deeply. It may be horrible but it happens in life. The main thing is your daughter is with you now and she loves you no matter what"

"I-I just wish I could have been there. I missed her first steps, first words, her first pet, her first boo boo, her first-"

A soft hand on his own was all he needed to stop talking.

"You did miss a lot of thing's in her life. But now you get the chance to watch her grow up. She is still very young and has so much more life in her"

"Yeah" He half smiled "I guess I will"

"You both will miss her but all you can do is move on ahead. I learned that the hard way"

"What do you mean?"

Arcee sighed "When Tailgate went offline all I wanted was to kill the one that killed him, I hunted Arachnid. Everytime I saw her I just wanted to rip her in half, but she is just too quick and I keep getting caught or fail. Then when Cliffjumper offline I would do anything to find out who it was. Starscream was the one and I let my guard down letting him get me, and I let the only chance of this war to end get away. Those were my mistakes"

Skywarp knew what she was saying, but he couldn't say he didn't do the same "When I found out autobot's killed my bond mate I wanted nothing more then to make them all suffer. I went to cybertron and found them, I made them scream, beg for mercy. Then I found out I missed one and he was just as crazy. He wasn't an autobot he was a pretender. When he got my daughter he hurt her and at the end I was able to hurt him but then he look his own life"

"Do you regret killing those on cybertron?"

"Sometimes I do but other times I don't. I knew it was wrong but just the thought of it really got to me. What's done is done and that is all. But I won't tell my daughter what I did"

"Will you ever tell her?"

"Maybe when she is much older, but for now she doesn't need to know her father is a killer. Though I have killed other's but she doesn't need to know that"

Arcee nodded before asking something else "When she is older, are you going to make her become a decepticon?"

Skywarp looked at her "I'll love her no matter what she wants to do, even if she join's the autobot's I'll still love her. She is perfect and I want her to be happy"

"I'm glad you raise her well"

"It's not easy sometimes. Half the time I don't know what I'm doing, but I just wing it and see the results later"

"Your like any other new parent, you may make mistakes but you learn"

"Thanks for the talk Arcee"

She smiled and rubbing his shoulder "It's ok"

Skywarp looked into her optics, watching as they glittered in the moon light. Without thinking her reached his hand up to her face, softly rubbing her cheek and saw the confused look on her. Both didn't say anything but just stared. Arcee's hand was placed on his chest, just over his spark and she could feel the warmth from him, it's beat thumping softly. Skywarp then leaned forward to her, slowly before closing the distance and placing his lips onto her own.

Arcee didn't know what to do, she was stiff as his lips touched her's. His hand still placed over he cheek and her hand over his chest, so still and both silent. Slowly Arcee leaned into the kiss and placed her hand on his own cheek, cupping it gently. Skywarp took this and let out a sigh into the kiss, leaning forward more he deepen the kiss.

This time Arcee went to try and wrap her arms around his neck but as soon as she did Skywarp pulled away and gasped at what he just did. He looked away from her feeling she felt violated.

"I-I'm so sorry!" He told her "I-I-I...d-don't know what I was thinking. O-oh Primus"

"N-no I'm sorry...I-I...I-I should go" Arcee quickly left Skywarp to head back into the base. Both were in shock and didn't know what came over them.

"Damn it Skywarp. Just when she is starting to be nice and your just jump in" He hit himself feeling like an idiot.

He didn't know what Arcee was feeling but right now she slid onto the floor with her back on the wall and sighed. Letting a small tear roll down her cheek, feeling like she was unable to control herself before she went back to her quarters to think about tonight.

The next morning Skywarp was up early, he didn't recharge well. He just couldn't get out of his CPU about what happened between him and Arcee. He was sure she was going to hate him after that and he would have to forget about it. Today was the day they were going home and everything will be back to normal. He came around a corner and suddenly bumped into Arcee. He tried to find words real quick but she cut in.

"Skywarp I was looking for you"

"H-hey Arcee. Look about last night-"

"You don't have to say anything" She held up her hand's "It was something we both did"

"S-sooo...what now?"

"How about we forget it ever happened? Is that alright?"

"I was going to ask the same thing. You ok with that?"

"It's fine. I'm sorry I did that"

"I should be sorry-"

Pebbles came running around the corner to see the two talking but also heard her father "What are you sorry for daddy?"

"Oh hey princess" Skywarp smiled "Ahh just something that happened but it's all good"

"What happened?"

"Ahh well..." Skywarp tried to think of the best way to explain this.

"Umm Pebbles your father and I...w-well we..." Arcee tried to find the word.

In this short silence Pebbles looked back and forth at the two adult's, studying there faces and the expression they had. At that moment she took a guess.

She put her best and cutest grind on her face and folded her arms behind her back "Did you two kiss?"

The epic and shock look they gave her was all she needed for an answer. Squealing with excitement she jumped up and down and ran around the hall, filled with joy and happiness as she has wanted this to happen for so long.

"Ok Pebbles calm down" Arcee laughed softly.

"I'm just so happy! You two are together now!" Pebbles almost shouted.

Skywarp sighed a laugh "Sweetie were not-"

"I've dreamed this day for so long and I'm so happy it's you Arcee" Pebbles smiled.

Arcee smiled but also laughed softly "Pebbles your father and I-"

"I've always wanted another mummy"

That comment made the two silent and stared at the sweet and happy sparkling who has wanted this for so long and now she thinks it's happening. How could they tell her nothing was happening between them? She will be spark broken.

Skywarp finally spoke "Baby why don't you go to the rec room to find everyone. Arcee and I will catch up"

"Ok daddy" Pebbles then ran down the hall to find the others.

Arcee and Skywarp both leaned onto the wall and sighed "Well now what?" Arcee asked.

"H-how can we tell her, we should have said nothing. We will tell her before we head back to our universe" Skywarp said.

"Yeah" Arcee half smiled "You will be missed around here. Everyone likes having you and your daughter here"

"Thanks. We will miss everyone as well"

Arcee put out her hand for him to shake and he did so.

"Come on" Arcee turned "Let's go before your daughter blurs it out to everyone"
