P.O.V. Redrun

Redrun knew that when her mother found out what she was about to do she would not be happy with her nether would her Opie, Soundwave, Jazzy, or any of the bots for that matter. 'Well tough nuggets' she was not happy with her Grand Pappy she had gone against her mother after she had given him a chance to keep his Prime-hood and he blow it. If she couldn't save Grandpa for her Opie she could save the family member who had no choice in the first place her Uncle Tron was near she could sense him. He was screaming on the inside for it all to stop he didn't want to hurt the humans or his brother anymore he was prying that his brother would kill him, so all of this would finally be over, and he could sleep. She could feel that he was hurting there was a gaping wound on his spark caused by the Fallen and nonmatter how much he tried it wouldn't heal and he couldn't break free from the slave program. It was frustrating to him as he could feel the programing starting to break, but it wasn't enough. She knew that her uncle just need on final push and he could be free and there was only one thing that would be strong enough to break it once and for all. She was going to be grounded for the rest of her life for this she just knew it.

Getting off Goose Island was easier that she had expected she had subdued Buzzsaw and snuck onto one of the empty transporters. Thanks to conning Jetfire into teaching her how to drive a ship it was easy to get to where she wanted to go. Three blocks form Trump Tower now all she had to do was tick off a worm and get it to chase her. She was dead if the worm didn't kill her the rest of her kith sure as pits would.

P.O.V. Megatron

I looked over the human city and internally cringed. I didn't want to do this, he had hoped that when Optimus had killed the Fallen he would finally be free, but he was still bound to Sentinel. As the eldest Prime, I had no choice but to obey him, no matter how much i didn't want to. I had been happy when Sam had killed me the first time. In the Well I had been free, Primus had forgiven me for all that I had done, and finally starting to heal. I was at peace until I was ripped away, to this cage called life. I just wanted to scream, to fight beside my brother, for this nightmare to stop, and to hide away from the pain in my spark. Instead I was here listening as Sentinel gave a speech about how he would bring Cybertron to its former glory and how he would rule both worlds blab la blab. The Fallen's programing demanded that I say something about how he didn't rule the Decepticons, but I just didn't give a turborats aft about it. The tugging of a bond that wasn't familiar or someone I knew was something more interesting.

It was like someone pulling a thin string in his spark, something so fragile that one sharp tug would break it. He knew he had always been too curious for his own good as his current predicament could protest, but it was nearly imposable to hurt someone through a true bond. So, I was pretty sure it wouldn't hurt me to investigate. I reached out and was surprised at how young the presents felt as far as I knew Bumblebee was the youngest Transformer still alive and whoever was on the other side of the bond was younger than the bug. Slowly I started to gently prod at the bond trying to find out who exactly was at the other end. The youngling felt my gentle prodding and reached to him in fear sending an image of an angry worm chasing after them. I knew that if I wanted to solve this mystery I would have to follow the bond and see them before the worm got them.

"Sentinel, I must leave my mechs are having some trouble on the north quadrant and with victory so close I do not want to take any chances."

"Yes, go everything will be in place in one breem (8.5 minutes) do not let the Autobots get past the barrier."

I did not like Sentinels tone at all, but the tugging at my spark got stronger and the fear I felt from the other end was growing with each passing Nano-klik. Letting my spark guide me I ended up near what the human called Washington square park they were close, but I didn't know exactly where they were. Straining my audios, I listened for the telltale grinding of the worm. It was the noise that followed the worm that froze the energon in my body worse than any liquid nitrogen ever would; it was the sound of a sparkling screaming in destress. My optics brightened so much that my face seamed to glow red. I didn't think, I didn't allow myself to crash with the impossibility of a sparkling here I just ran. I knocked over trees and nearly tripped over that dam fountain, but I didn't care he need to see the if it really was a sparkling. He could feel his spark pulsing faster as he saw the worms tail looking past it he could see a little red and white femm. It was a sparkling; an honest to Primus sparkling not even a decivorn (8.3 year) old. The sparkling warbled in destress as a stray rock hit its helm but kept running.

Something within me shattered No one and I mean NO-ONE was going to hurt a sparkling while I was still alive. With a battle cry I unsub- space my Bardiche (a type of battle ax) and remove the worms head with one stroke. It skids forward causing the sparkling to cry out in fear as she trips, curling into a ball to try and protect herself the 'Oh shit I'm dead' was definitely coming from the sparkling. Her appearance brought a lot of question, who was she, where did she come from and how was she bonded to me when I had never seen her before, but I was glad to see her. I crouch down near her and croon trying to calm her down. The sparkling slowly uncurled herself and looked at me with bright blue optics, I nearly fell over as I was shocked at how much she looked like Orion at this age.

"Uncle Tron?"

"….Un?"

The sparkling beamed "Uncle Tron your Free!" she screeched in Joy before flinging herself at me in a flying hug.

Startled I caught her wondering, as the humans would say, when I had fallen down the rabbit hole. The bond flared and strengthened it was stronger than the bond I had with Sentinel. I could feel the little sparklings excitement to seeing me and nothing made senses. The sparkling reached to me through the bond and held on tight before started to explain.

"My designation it Redrun I am the only daughter of the Allspark and her Prime I was created four earth years ago and have grown up among the Autobots here on earth. When the cube was destroyed my mother took on a new from she caused quite the stir showing up from nowhere with me in tow. Mother knew what was coming and planed the best she could for the best outcome for all Cybertronians. With the Fallen and the corrupt Prime still alive she hide us away from the world only letting those she trusted know about me and the other sparkling. She started to capture the Decepticons and free them of their slave program, she formed stronger alliances with our allies, and started to build a better future for all of us. The Fallen died and Mother gained her Angel of Chaos along with bonding with her two mates, but she wasn't strong enough. So, she bided her time until the corrupt Prime was reviled and readied the troops, but I didn't want my Opie hurt."

The sparkling was silent trying to find the words to tell me what was going on I rubbed her winglets in encouragement "you can do it little on take your time" I tell her gently.

"I" left the safety of the Island and let Sentinel see me I was hoping that if he had me he might rethink his plan and come back to the right path, but he didn't. I failed my Opie I couldn't get Grandpa to see what Mommy was trying to tell him." Redrun started to chirp and click in destress I clicked at her trying to calm her down for the near hysterics. "I didn't want Opie to hurt anymore he just wanted his Kith back I couldn't let him lose anymore." She was practically screaming at me trying to get me to understand but I had no idea what she was saying. "He had lost you so many times Uncle Tron if he lost you again I don't think he would ever heal I couldn't leave you I need to save you I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please forgive me I'm sorry." She wailed clutching at my armor trying to get me to understand.

I could feel my spark crumble as the puzzle took shape in front of me. I had a bond with her because she was my brothers sparkling, the seer femm was the Allspark in hiding, and the reason she was sorry was because she knew I would be angry at her for risking her life to free me of the Slave program.

"Sweetspark it's okay" I send her love and understanding over the bond. I was not happy that she risked her life, but I had grown up with Orion and if it wasn't for the bond this would prove to me that she was definitely his sparkling. "Of all the thing you had to get form my brother it had to be the suicidal martyr tendencies."

"Mommy is just as bad according to Uncle Ratchet and Uncle Hide."

My optics are glowing brightly again, Sweet Primus, if Ratchet and Ironhide think that Venatrix is worse I'm going to need at least two trines watching her until her protector is found. I nearly whimper at the thought of watching all three of them I could barely keep up with my brother I now had two more of him to watch over now I scoop up Redrun and hold her close to my spark "you three are going to offline me permanently." The little scraplet just giggled at the stress in my voice.

"Love you Uncle Tron"

Well at least this one is cute.
