I do not own Transformers. I just own my OC's Kore River and Lethe River.
Chapter 21: Sideswipe and Kore part 2
Due to wanting them to wake up in a human size room, Ratchet, Sunny and I moved them to the human med bay before they woke up. Once moving was complete, I resumed my position by Kore's side. But, was interrupted by my narcissist brother, "Hey, Ratchet. I've got a question about my spark."
Holoform Ratchet shifted his eyes to Sunny's, "What Sunstreaker?" My brother then told him about the weird feeling he's been having in his spark lately. "Yeah! And they happen when he's around Lethe and I'm with Kore! What's going on doc bot?" The medical Autobot stared at us before phasing out. "Where did he go- Whoa! Oh, he scanned us."
And with that, the Hatchet returned with a data pad in his holoform hands. As he scrolled through the data, a scary scene happened. He smiled. And it kept getting bigger! He then started to laugh! AHHHHHHH PIT! WE'RE GONNA DIE!
"Sun…Sunny? Are we gonna die?" I turned to my twin for an answer, "I don't know Sides… Oye! Doc bot! What are we going to die off?"
The medic's laughing slowly stopped as he brushed a tear away from his holoform's eye. "You two glitch heads are not going to die." Relief flooded both our sparks. "Well, what's wrong?"
Ratchet's face went serious before bursting out laughing again. Sunstreaker was furious now, "FOR THE LOVE OF PRIMUS! TELL US!"
Ratchet took a breath before continuing, ""I never thought I would be online to see this day! Okay mech's! Basically your sparks are reaching out to other sparks. And more specifically, to Lethe's and Kore's sparks. There compatible."
Sunstreaker looked at me with a confused look, hoping to get some answers. But I was just as confused as he was. "Well, what does that mean?"
"You two have basically found your sparkmates. Congratulations." What? Like…Like Prime and Elita-1?Ironhide and Chromia? "WHAT!" we both screamed as the realization hit us. Hard.
The feelings I've been having around and without Kore are now all explained. And I'm in shock. I walked over to Kore and looked down at her as I once more took her hand, warmth swelling once more into my spark. I 'uppose this will be nice. And I drifted back into recharge.
As I came online, I felt movement and a groan. Pit! Kore! Pain?! And with that I shot up, "What's Wrong?!" No sound came out of Kore. No, no, no! Something's wrong! She must be in pain! RATCHET! "Wait here!" and with that I went to get Ratchet.
I found him outside the room in his holoform. "Ratchet! You have to come! She's awake and in pain! COME ON!"
"Hold your pistons mech! The femmes aren't going anywhere!" As we entered the room, Kore giggled. Huh, I guess she thinks this is funny? Ratchet started to check her vitals, reflexes and all the doctor stuff that he was programed for before moving on to Lethe. But once he was done he made us leave saying (in is impersonation of Ratchet's voice), "They need their rest. Blah. Blah. Blah." He then threw us out.
A few hours later, Sunstreaker and I were pranked by the very two femme's our sparks had chosen as sparkmates. Uh… Guess my spark really knows I love pranks. Any ways, so they pranked us, we made them give us a car wash, Ratchet came and captured them. But he confined them to the med bay. Poor femme's, I know when I'm stuck in the med bay, Hatchet gives me and Sunny Pit!
So we had to wait FIVE DAY'S before the two techno-organics could leave the med bay. Sunstreaker went and looked after Lethe, while I went with Kore. Kore and I spent a lot of time playing video games, but after a few hours she would get tired.
One day we were playing Mario Kart for, I think it was 5 hours, when all of a sudden, I felt something leaning against my thigh and my spark rate went through the roof! I paused the game and looked down seeing that Kore had fallen asleep and was resting against me. I had no idea what to do. So I sat there. Frozen. For three hours. I did not move a single nanoclick, until she woke up.
Another day, we were allowed to go out off base. "Where do you want to go?" The brown haired femme thought for a moment. "The book store! I haven't gotten any new books recently!" And with that I set our course for the books!
I turned my back for only a minute, and the femme is GONE! I've gone down the kid, adult, teen, cooking, craft- Oh there she is! Kore was in the geography section looking at a book on nature preserve, but she looked sad. "Hey Kore, you okay?" She shot up and closed the book. "Yeah… Yeah, I'm fine. So did you find anything?"
We were driving back to base. Kore was still silent. She had been since I found her with that book, but when I asked her about it, she would change the subject. Maybe I'll ask Lethe and Sunstreaker if they have any ideas…
So I asked. "What book was my sister looking at?" I had to think for a moment, "Oh! It was…I think a book on nature preserves!" The expression on Lethe's face saddened at that, "What's wrong?" Lethe then told me the story of their parent's death.
No wonder Kore seemed depressed! I've got to find out how to get her better. Just then Lethe's words came to mind, "She loves chili chocolate! It perks her up almost every time!" With that information, I went to buy this chili chocolate.
I activated my holoform, brought the chocolate and found Kore. She was had been reading a book, but she was staring off into space. "Hey." My salutation brought Kore back to reality and her gaze met mine. "I bought you some chocolate. Lethe said it was your favorite." Kore took the chocolate and began to eat it. But what happened next stunned me.
Fluid began to leak from her eyes. Tears. They were human tears and Kore was crying. "Hey, hey. It'll be alright. It's okay." I began to rub her back and then she opened the waterfall. Kore began to cry more and more. Though it was strange, it was fine. I wanted to be there for her.
Kore cried and began to hiccup. In between hiccups she would say that the accident with her parents were all her fault. She still blamed herself. She shouldn't. "It was never your fault. Your parents loved you! They would be happy to know that you survived. Never! Never say that it's your fault!"
I comforted her for the remainder of the time. But after about 20 minutes, she fell asleep. I deactivated my holoform and transformed. I then picked her up and cradled her next to my spark. I had heard that sparkmate's feel more comfortable when they are near each other's sparks, and it seemed to work. Her breathing became more mellow and calm as she peacefully rested in my hand.
About two hours passed and Kore finally woke up. "Oh dear! I am so sorry! I never meant to… I'm so sorry!"
I laughed, "Its fine. Don't worry about it." she took in a breath and smiled. Man, I missed her smile! It's like a super nova! I then brought the rest of the chocolate up to her, "What's some more?" And with a nod, she picked it up and resumed her consumption of it. "Thank you Sides."
A few months passed, and I had read about what humans call "dating." If Kore is my future sparkmate, then I guess I've got to go through the earth custom of "getting to know you beforehand."
"Will you be my girlfriend!?" Kore froze. She stayed frozen for a full 10 minutes, "What?" Oh scrap! She does not want to be with me! "I- I mean, you, uh, don't have to. I… I just… really like you… and-"
"I like you too."
This time I froze and stared at the femme that was seated in the palm of my hand, "You do?" She giggled, "Yeah, I do. I'm sorry that I paused for so long. It just took me a minute to process what you asked."
"Oh."
The two of us had started to date.
Chapter 21 out of 23! We're almost done with A New Life!
