But I'll try to update more!Also Bumblebee has his voice back! Also thank you to those who voted on my poll, the winner is that Magnus will get sick, I have a great idea thanks to Girl Supersonicboy!

*Optimus POV*

"He's been WHAT?!"

I cringed slightly before responding to him," Agent Fowler, we do not know how this happened, but Ratchet is working hard to find a solution to this problem."

"Prime, I get that and it's good that Ratch' is working on a solution, but you are now one soldier short! And that's something that you don't need right now, the 'Cons attacked one of our military bases with some new weapon. It destroyed everything, and you weren't there Prime! And why? Because you were here, babysitting!" As Agent Fowler finshed, the entire base had gone silent.

I sighed," Agent Fowler, we did not recieve any indication that the Decepticons were making any movement."

"Well they were there Prime and I don't know what to tell you, but this needs to be taken care, or I will," The Agent said while walking over to the door leaving the base.

I sighed heavily turning around to look at my companions.

"What are we going to do Optimus?" Smokescreen asked.

"First we need to find out what the Decepticons are planning, Ratchet please do some research on their activity," I said looking to Magnus," And perhaps I can wa-"

"I'll watch Magnus!" Bumblebee said popping forward.

"Why thank you Bumblebee I would greatly appreciate that, I would like to go for a little drive," I thanked him turning towards the exit, while watching Ratchet hand Magnus to Bumblebee," I am going on patrol then."

Taking one more glance back at my comrades, I exited the base, stress heavy on my mind.

*Bumblebee POV*

"Come on Magnus, let's go and see what Raf is doing," I said looking down at the sparkling in my arms.

"Ok'y," He replied.

I took Magnus over to the kids T.V. area to see Raf racing with Jack. I set him down next to their couch and leaned over them.

"Aw! I lost again! I think you're cheating Raf!" Jack said tossing the controller onto the table.

Raf laughed," I swear I'm not Jack!"

"He's just that good Jack, hey he may even beat me someday!" I said smiling.

"You know I will Bee!" Raf said setting his remote down and walking over by Magnus," So what are you guys going to do?"

"Not sure yet, but I thought that whatever we do you could tag along," I offered.

"Sure sounds like fun!" He replied.

So Raf hung out with Magnus and I until had finished what he was doing for the day so he came and took Magnus from us. He thanked us for watching him though.

"Do you need a ride home Raf?" I asked him.

"Yeah I need to get home, its getting late," He replied, so I transformed and opened my door allowing him in, then I tore out of the base taking my friend home.

*Ratchet POV*

I walked down the hallways to Optimus' and I's quarters with Magnus in my arms.

"Did you have a good day?" I asked him arriving to the door typing in the code.

He nodded his head in response and realized that this expierience could good for him. It allowed him to see everything from a different manner.

"That's good, do you need some energon?" I asked him.

"Ye' plea'," He replied and I smiled while grabbing a cube for him.

He drank the cube up and started getting drowsy, not that I was surprised. After drinking energon most sparklings become tired.

"Alright time for bed for you, okay?" I said and smiled softly when he nodded and rubbed his small fisted hands on his eyes.

I took him into the berthroom and set him down gently kissing his forehelm and exiting the room.

*Magnus POV*

As Ratchet exited the room I started thinking a little bit before I drifted off. I realized that Optimus was true to his word when saying that this team is a family. Perhaps what happening to me was a good thing, it has already taught me some good lessons.

As I started to drift off I coughed a little bit and my eyes widened when the faintest amount of rust came out. I had no time to think anymore, it would have to wait till mourning because I felt myself drift of into a deep sleep.

*Optimus POV*

Arriving back from my patrol for the day, I headed straight to my quarters. Opening the doors I came in to Ratchet sitting on the couch reading a datapad.

"Good evening Ratchet," I greeted him seating myself next to him.

"Hello Orion," He said leaning over and kissing me.

"You can never get away from work can you?" I said noticing he was looking over medical statistics.

"Just doing a look over of everyone, nothing strenous," He said shutting the datapad down and putting it away.

"Hmm, well I think you can stop working for now," I said putting my arm around his waist and pulling him close," I missed you all day."

"I missed you too Orion," He said then kissed me," We should probably go to bed though."

I looked at him and frowned hoping we could spend some time together to do some things.

"Optimus we can't do that with Magnus here," He said putting a hand on my thigh.

"Oh right, I had forgotten he was here," I said," Well then let's just go to bed."

So we stood up and headed to the berthroom with our arms around each other. Then we carefully laid down in the berth as to not awaken Magnus. And I fell asleep happy knowing they were both safe in my arms.

I had to put a little Optimus Ratchet fluff in there! I just love that couple! Anyways next chapter I will give a little info on the disease I have for Magnus! Please review! It will help me update faster!
