chapter 4

It had been a couple of months and Jetstorm and Slipstream had been growing up. They were about three months old. They were taking a nap. Drift was taking a break he was really tired. Denny understood babies take a lot of work.

Drift was looking at his swords. After awhile he knew he had to check on them. Slipstream was asleep sucking his thumb. While Jetstorm was awake watching his mobile and gurgling. Drift smiled at him Jetstorm looked at him and gurgled. Drift picked him up and changed his diaper. "There we go." Drift said.

Slipstream woke up and gurgled. Drift took care of Slipstream.

After that he took a break. Drift organized all the baby stuff. In a couple of months the two of them would be moving into the nursery.

Slipstream and Jetstorm were now 8 months old. They learned to crawl a week later. They were all over the place the baby proofed the scrapyard just to keep them safe.

Jetstorm and Slipstream were in their playpen. Slipstream was stacking blocks while Jetstorm was cuddling soft plush elephant. Both them were sucking on the pacifiers in their mouths.

Slipstream was busy playing with some blocks he looked at Jetstorm and went to him. They were taken out a while later. Jetstorm was crawling around with the elephant in his hand.

It was pretty cute because Slipstream was doing that with his plush giraffe. Jetstorm saw Drift and crawled over to him and reached up. Drift knew what Jetstorm wanted and picked him up.

To him Jetstorm and Slipstream are the universe.

They were so cute. Fracture was in stasis with his minicons and for that Drift felt relieved. Because he knew that Fracture would do anything to harm something or someone that Drift cared about.

Drift was brought out his thoughts Jetstorm was starting to fuss. The little fella was tired. Drift could see that Slipstream was tired to so he picked him up and he put them in the nursery in there cribs and the toys in the rocking chair.

"Okay my little ones go to sleep." Drift said.

Jetstorm and Slipstream dozed off. Drift walked out quietly. Then shut the door very quietly. He didn't want the little ones to be disturbed.

"I just put them down for a nap we should try to be quiet." Drift said.

The others knew when the sparklings were asleep they should be quiet so they won't wake them.

Jetstorm and Slipstream had been teething so they have been biting on their teething rings. Jetstorm and Slipstream will put almost anything in to their mouths including their feet.

Drift was a bit worried at first until Denny explained it is normal baby behavior.

At twelve months Jetstorm and Slipstream were both very different they have been different for a while. Slipstream always looked at the camera and at other bots and people's faces and looked at them when they said his name.

But Jetstorm didn't he didn't look at the camera to often or look others in the eye he didn't look when his name was said on occasion. Drift was worried Jetstorm might be hard at hearing. Ratchet gave Jetstorm a hearing test his hearing worked just fine. Then a Firetruck drove by sirens wailing. Slipstream snuggled with his toy while Jetstorm cried loudly covering his audio receptors.

"Jetstorm doesn't like the siren." Russel said.

Ratchet saw this. "Has this happened before?" Ratchet asked.

Drift tried to cuddle Jetstorm but Jetstorm got even more fussy. Grimlock handed Jetstorm the plush triceratops he gave him. Jetstorm held the toy and began to calm down. Jetstorm began to babble he was very happy.

"Yes it has happened before. I don't know why he isn't big fan of bright light or colors and he doesn't like it when the daily routine changes." Drift said.

"Hmm we have to test Jetstorm when he gets older. To try to find out whats wrong." Ratchet said. "In delays in development or independence?" Ratchet asked.

"No pretty normal so far." Drift said. "Why you ask?" Drift asked.

"Just worried that Jetstorm might be one of those few bots and humans that have one of the disabilities both our species has in common." Ratchet said.

"Will he be okay?" Drift asked.

"No I didn't say it was an illness he'll live it might be disability that is becoming quiet common not even Cybertronian science can tell how it happens." Ratchet said. "But I am sure he will be fine." Ratchet said.

"We kind of picks up certain things a bit fast." Drift said.

"Hmm I think he might be on the high functioning end." Ratchet said.

Drift let out a big sigh. Jetstorm began to squirm he wanted down. Drift put him in the play pen. Jetstorm was playing by himself he seem pretty relaxed. Slipstream tried to
