Bumblebee caught up with Magnia at her quarters, when she nearly slammed her door on his ped.

"Magnia please listen," Bumblebee begged.

"I can't believe you," Magnia bit her lip, refusing to look at him. "This is our sparkling and you wanted to kill it."

"No, I don't!" Bee cried. "I want to keep it and raise it with you. But I thought that decision should be up to you, because you will be the one going through the most pain and struggle to have it. If you had chosen to kill it, I would have been devastated, but it wasn't my choice."

She looked at him, finally, "Of course it's your choice, dumbaft. It's just as much your sparkling as mine."

"Magnia," he took her servos in his. "I promise to I will be here for you through all of this, through the pregnancy and the creation and raising it. Anything you need, and anything the sparkling needs, I will be there."

Magnia smiled, "Really?"

"Really."

"Okay, first thing."

Bumblebee chuckled, "What?"

"Whenever Optimus starts talking about me, I need you to completely ignore him," she sighed. "You're only making it worse by fighting with him; it's just convincing him that I'm trying to separate you two."

Bumblebee squeezed his optics shut, "It'll be hard, but I will try as best I can."

She was silent for a moment, "Strangely, I am in the mood to cuddle. Do you want to?"

Bumblebee laughed, "Such a big bad Decepticon." Magnia scowled at him playfully and he clambered onto her berth and patted the space next to him. She nestled next to him under the covers, leaning against him as he wrapped his arms around her.

"We're going to have a sparkling," his optics danced. "I can't wait! What do you think they'll be like? Do you think it will look more like me or you?"

"Bumble, calm down," Magnia laughed.

"I'm sorry, I'm just so happy," he grinned. "There's no one on Cybertron I would rather have a sparkling with than you."

"I feel the same," she gazed up at him lovingly. "We should think of names."

"Hmmm," he pondered. "How 'bout if it's a mech, Orion, and if it's a femme, Magma."

"Aww that's sweet to name him after Optimus," Magnia smiled.

Bee nodded, "And Magma is after you, because Magnia sounds like Magma."

"Hmm, I don't know about those ones," Magnia mused. "What about Firebee if it's a mech, and Lunablade if it's a femme?"

"Firebee," Bumblebee looked flattered. "After me?"

Magnia smiled, "Yes. And Lunablade after my mother."

Bumblebee sighed, "I don't know. I like Firebee, but I think it will depend on what they look like."

Magnia yawned, "Yeah. I bet Orion would make Optimus happy though."

"Mags?"

"Hmmm?"

"Do you think it will be a mech or a femme?"

"Femme..." Magnia murmured sleepily.

"How do you know?" he asked. "Mags?" But the exhausted femme was already fast asleep against him. Bumblebee smiled and snuggled closer to her.


Optimus went looking for Bumblebee, and when he wasn't in his quarters, he headed to Magnia's, fuming.

He bumped into Ratchet on his way, "Where are you heading?"

"To check on Magnia."

Optimus sighed, "Bumblebee is not in his quarters again."

Ratchet shook his helm, "Off to Magnia's we go then."

As they walked, Ratchet sighed, "You know, this is getting a bit ridiculous."

"What is?"

"We can't keep monitoring them and preventing them from…" Ratchet coughed. "Well you know. It's getting a bit ridiculous, and they're about to be parents anyways. They'll need to move in together."

Optimus sighed, "I wish you weren't right."

They reached Magnia's room and Optimus knocked lightly. When there was no response, the two opened the door and peered in.

"Aww," Ratchet said, seeing the two snuggled up together. "See Optimus, they're just sleeping."

"Hmpf," Optimus huffed. He received a comm from Prowl, :Yes Prowl?:

:Somebot responded to our message to wandering Cybertronians,: Prowl commed. :They will be arriving in the docking area shortly.:

Optimus motioned to Ratchet, "A new bot is arriving. Care to come?"

"Sure," Ratchet said. "I wonder who it is. Could be a Decepticon."

"I'm sure Prowl is managing it."


Prowl was indeed managing it. He had posted soldiers outside the approaching ship, cannons trained on the aircraft. Optimus and Ratchet arrived along with almost the entire base, who had somehow gotten wind of the news. With a nod from Optimus, Prowl signaled the craft to land.

With a hum of electricity, the hatch hissed open and three figures stepped out.

Ratchet peered through the smoke from the ship's tailpipes and exclaimed, "First Aid?"

The younger medic waved the smoke away from his faceplates, "Ratchet!"

"Good to see you, boy!" Ratchet clapped him on the shoulder.

"You know this mech?" Prowl questioned.

"Of course," Ratchet smiled. "He was one of my apprentices."

Prowl gestured to the two other mechs, one red and the other yellow, "Do you know them?"

"Oh, this is Sideswipe and Sunstreaker," First Aid sighed. "They're twins, and they're a real pain in the aft, but they're alright."

"More twins?" Ratchet groaned as Mudflap and Skids emerged from the crowd.

"Hey...we're the only twins 'round here!" Mudflap frowned.

"Yeah!" Skids chimed in.

"Well look who thinks they're a real class act," Sunstreaker grinned. "Just gonna let you little dudes know, me and Sides have been called the kings of pranking, and we ain't goin' down easy."

"Did he just call us little?" Skids growled.

"Oh no he didn't!" Mudflap yelled, and tried to tackle Sunstreaker, who just laughed at the smaller bot.

"Attack of the munchkins," Sideswipe snorted.

While the two sets of twins got to know each other, Ratchet went off to show First Aid to his new quarters. Once they had met the three new bots, everyone got a bit disinterested and started to go back to what they were doing.

Optimus caught sight of Magnia and Bumblebee arriving; the commotion must have awoken them. Optimus frowned, seeing the way Bumblebee looked at her, so lovingly it almost made him jealous. But that was ridiculous of course; what did he have to be jealous of? Magnia didn't have anything Optimus didn't have.

Looking at the happy couple, Optimus realized that Magnia did have something he didn't.

She had Bumblebee.
