A/N: Thank you for your reviews! You are the best!


***A year later***

Dear diary,

I haven't written on you since my little sister came. I have someone that listens to me and answers me. My brother is more responsible now that she is with us. The Decepticons blew a gasket when they knew their greatest soldiers left. We had several confrontations with the 'Cons because they wanted the kid back to them but I promised myself nobot will touch her again.

Carrier, Sire, remember I promised you and myself to rescue her the day you off-lined? Well I saved her. I did it. We did it. We are an united family now. Mom, dad, you are just missing but we keep you in our sparks. Creators, your youngest creation was named DarkHope. The decepticon that off-lined you chose that name. He thought that hoping to save her would only be a waste of my time, of our time but he was wrong. Hope. Our little sister gave us that hope to continue our work to save her. That part of the name is beautiful.

Hope.

Never stop hoping for what you want. Fight until your last breath. That's what we did and we got the result. Sometimes, hope is hard to keep when eveything around you is dark but at the end, Hope will always be waiting for you. Raise your servo, reach it. Reach Hope. Hope is just waiting for you to do that. Never lower your helm. Walk proudly, keeping the reason that motivates you to continue in that path. Nobot can tells you you are wrong. Hope is your own coach when you think you are alone. I always thought hope was only for weak mechs and femmes but I was wrong. I don't know if that Decepticon named her to help us, it looks like he did want to help us. Like he was just following an order but as 'Con, helping an Autobot or future Autobot is an act that would lead to self-off-line.

Sire... Carrier, if you can see us from where you are, never forget us. I'm sure you must be proud of us. Not only Sides and I but also of our little sister. It took her a long time before to get rid of that dark energon.

Dark.

Thinking about it, the first part of her name also had an effect on us. On us all. Dark. We thought we would never get her save with us. She lived in a dark life during all her younglinghood. I don't know what she had to experience but being a Decepticon is nothing easy. She had hope. A dark hope that somebot would take her out of that miserable place. A place were an innocent spark can be corrupted for the rest of the time living. A place were rights are violated. My sister lived an unforgettable experience. Even though she was a Decepticon, she kept hoping to see the light of the day. Her hope was dark but she kept it until the day we came for her.

DarkHope.

Mommy, after having a little chat with her, we decided to change her name. DarkHope has now a history but it will only be said by a storyteller not her. Her new name is...

BrightHope.

We kept the hope to remind us all the things we, the three of us, went through before to be together once and for all. She loves her new name. So we do. What about you Carrier? Like it?

Sire, since the day you left us, I have taken care of my brother as you told me. It was hard at first because you were the one that took care of us. Carrier and you. I was alone with him. Yes, the Autobots were there but as family, we were alone. I was alone. I tried to be strong for my little brother. He had a hard time recharging weeks after your death. It was hard for me to comfort him because I was also in pain for your eternal departure. I took care of him like he was the last youngling on Cybertron. After all, he was the only family I had. The day we landed here, on Earth, I grew even more protective with him. I was always keeping an optic on what he was doing and even if he hated that and had many quarrels about it, I never left him alone. I always protected him, like you told me Sire. I loved him the most I could, I took care of him the most I could and I tried to be the most paternal for him. I'm not trying to take your place but he told me he missed the paternal care he used to have. When we were young and I had to tuck him in his berth and he was half recharging, I always gave him a goodnight kiss and with his sleepy voice, he would call me 'Daddy.' It was hard to hear that but I accepted it because he missed you. He always said I look more like you than Carrier. Although, I always told him he looked more like Carrier than you.

Carrier, Sire, I can now smile knowing our family is completed. I succeeded in my mission. As a big brother, as your creation, as Autobot, as the mech I am. I succeeded. I had up and downs but I never gave up. Hope was always with me, even in the darkest days. I enjoy my days with my BrightHope. I taught her how to draw, how to attack, how to curse! Heh,heh,heh. I could not not teach her that! She needed to know about the art of cursing! I had many reprimands from Prowl, Optimus and Ratchet but what do they want? I am Sunstreaker. The mech that won't be scared to be himself and teach the others what he knows about life.

I took now the responsibility to 'raise' BrightHope. I did it well with Sideswipe, I can do it with her. It will be something new because she is a femme but Sides is now with me, ready to help me. She had spent months before to stop having nightmares about the experiences she had. She always came into my quarters and asked to sleep with me. Now that we were promoted, Sides and I, as front-liners, grade 1, we have our own quarters so I don't wake up him with a song or throwing a glass of hot oil over him!

Carrier, Bright' looks like you. Every time she cries because of a nightmare or a pain, her face reminds me of you. Such a pure and beautiful face. She has that strict look of yours! Aww... The best gift you could have gave us in our life was her.

I think what happened to you two had to happen. If you wouldn't have off-lined, we would all be on Cybertron, living like a typical family. I would not care for Sides or Bright'. I would have never known about Earth. I would have never felt so proud of myself. I would have never loved my family like I am doing today. I would have never known what is to fight for something I want. Thank you mom, dad for bringing me here safe to life this experience. Primus had it planned I think.

I really hope you are proud of us. I will always miss you and I will never stop to take care of my little brother and sister. Never. I promise you daddy. Mom, don't worry, I will keep an optic on Bright' so no mech will try to run after her. If I have to choose her future mate, I will! Ha ha ha! I can now live peacefully.

I love you with all my spark.

Your handsome creation, Sunstreaker.


Only one chap and finish!
