This came from one of many plot bunnies that seem to want to make my life harder.

I do not own Transformers. All original Transformers belong to rightful owners! I only own my Oc Arabella, and anyone else I add.

I also do not own ANY songs, media, or name brand foods used in this story (Don't Sue me please!).

Special thanks to: HeartsGuardianSol For following me!

HeartsGuardianSol: Thank you! You now Ratchet, he has to-*Bella: "MINE!" Snatches peppers while aiming blaster at me and slowly baking away into the shadows* Okay...Thanks again... :l

Shadow91259: Thank you! I've read a lot of stories where there were twins and the occasional triplets, but never have I read a story with quadruplets. So I decided why not be different. Glad you like the story!

Fandom Jumping Expert: I have been good, thank you for asking! Don't feel weird for asking about what she said...I should have translated. It is French, and the song I stole it from, which was used by the Sans-culottes during the French Revolution basically says that they'll hang the aristocrats from the lampposts. Thought it would be cheeky of her to say that to Mirage, cause ya know he was an aristocrat. Ahh mood swings! XD

AetheriusStorm: Thank you! I hope you like this chapter!

Retrokill: Indeed. But in most author's defense you have a really badass penname. Thank you for the compliment, hope you like this chapter!

TFSTARFIRE: Thank you, and I hope all is well with your pregnancy. Congrats BTW! Here is the second to last chapter!

Guest: Thank you, I really like your girl nicknames! I've actually been thinking of that for a while and so far all I've come up with is the qualm quadruplets. Not sure what to call them yet as far as a group nick name goes. I'm really glad that you like my story so much, there is only one chapter after this, but there will be a sequel. I hope you like it!

koekiemonster: Thank you! I enjoy writing this story...to the point that a few have questioned my sanity...XD I like to make things detailed...leaves less room for explanation and more room for imagination to run wild. :) Hope you like this chapter!

Normal point of view

I. Hate. Maternity. Leave. A lot. Sure at the beginning it was fun, helping build the nursery and designing the playpen, but about last week Ratchet insisted that I become less physical. And when I say insist I mean that he threatened to magnetize me to my berth if he caught me helping out again. Sunstreaker and Sideswipe are no better. They won't let me lift anything or help paint the nursery, the last time that I helped, Jolt (with proud approval from Ratchet) smacked them both in the helm with his hammers (note to self smack Tia later). This sucks! I can't train, I can't transform,I've done all that I can think of in my lab, and they're trying to curb my indulging in my cravings. I swear if they say "Have a high grade cube" or "Have a salad" one more time, I'm gonna freak! I have to drink medical high grade because it is the only thing that keeps me awake and that will curb my and the sparklings hunger. I'm eating for five, give me a break! And let me enjoy my chocolate covered sweet heat peppers! Sheesh! Ahhh so what am I doing? Ah yes I (after Terrin and Sheila told me about her rude ass) am going to haunt Lauren. How you may ask?

Me: "Wheeljack?"

Wheeljack: "Yes?"

Me: "What are the effects of putting a holoform through the ground bridge without our physical forms?"

Wheeljack: "I'm not sure, why do you ask?"

I told him my plan and he smirked, I hope that means he's on board.

Wheeljack: "I could use a break. If you would like I can assist in solving your theory."

Me: "Great! Lets-"

Sunny: "Arabella!"

Me: "Slag."

Sides: "Step away from the ground bridge! What have we told you about coming in here?!"

Me: "Oh for the love of Primus! Will you two leave me be and let me have my fun?"

Sunny: "No. Now come on you need to take a nap. You need to rest, you're due in a month an-"

Me: "I am not a sparkling. And I suggest you let me get my revenge, seeing that now is the only free time I will have before the sparklings are born."

Sides: "Revenge? On who?"

Me: "Lauren...I plan to haunt her a little bit today."

At the sound of this both of them grinned. I love it when they do that.

S.S: "Can I help?"

Me: "Yes but-"

Prowl: "Mrs. Brinks, what are you doing in Wheeljack's lab?!"

Why me?! Can't I just have a little bit of fun?!

Wheeljack: "We were going to test and see how a holoform holds up going through the ground bridge without our physical forms."

Prowl: "I see. Well may I ask what prompted this experiment?"

I told Prowl my intentions and what Lauren had done to me and several others. He frowned at first and as I told him more about her his frown deepened. Insert large tantrum here. There goes my fun for the day.

Prowl: "She has committed several crimes, correct?"

Me: "And then some. Even though she doesn't have to she shoplifts for stuff she doesn't need. She once blamed another kid from our school for shoplifting on a field trip and he got into trouble. Poor kid was innocent and he was suspended for a week."

Prowl frowned deeper. I didnt know that it was even possible for him to frown like that.

Prowl: "Well, I insist that I help you teach her a lesson. Though it is not my place to take revenge, it is my place to protect sentient life, of which she is endangering. If you don't mind I have an idea as to how we can teach her a lesson. You said that you wanted to haunt her yes?"

Sides: "Oh, ho ho! This is gonna be good!"

Manzano high school 12:05 lunch, courtyard

I have to hand it to Prowl, his idea for how to get her back is marvelous, especially since it was public and because so many bots were on board to do this. We tracked her phone and found that she was in the courtyard. Wheeljack opened the bridge and I poked my head out. My holoform appeared to be solid, excellent, muhwahahahahaha! I threw a small rock at Lauren's head with great accuracy.

Lauren: "OW!"

She screamed. With that we began our revenge. Wheeljack conjured up a holoform of Lauren, only this one had a small hole in her head, like she was hit by a meteor. He then made her colapse. This made a small group of kids gather around her holoform, gawking. Lauren herself included.

Lauren: "H..how am I there? I'm standing right here!"

Me: "Oh thats because you're dead. Mmmm, that's a shame."

Everyone turned to where I was standing, well hovering. I'm portraying an angel of death, I kinda have to float to look the part.

Lauren: "A...a...a...Arabella!?"

Me: "Hello Lauren. It's nice to see that you are well, were well."

Lauren: "You're dead! How can you?"

Me: "Oh I'm just here to collect your wayward soul. As soon as your guardian angel arrives we will take you to see the Holy ones so they can decide your fate."

This is where Tia appeared next to me in a swirl of white and gold color. Impressive. Terrin and Sheila had come into the courtyard to see what was happening. Both of them smiled, they knew what was going on.

Lauren: "Are you my guardian angel? But you're that little girl who died!"

Tia: "Thanks for reminding me of my short lifespan. And yes I am, I work with people your age and younger. You are far easier to sway, albeit not you. You had to listen to your guardian devils instead!"

Me: "Tia here is really good at what she does, and as such it takes two devils to balance out her work. Though I must say that they've done well with you."

The twins chose that moment to appear in a sulfury puff of smoke. They are going to enjoy every moment of this, I can tell. They're really just being who they are and who most perceive them to be.

Sides: "Ha! Speak of us and we shall appear!"

Sunny: "I must say that we did exceptionally well with you Lauren. All we had to do was make you feel insecure enough for you to pick on everyone else. Ahhh teenagers, so easy!"

Sides: "Heh, in more ways than one! Too bad for you pipsqueak! Looks like you lose again!"

Tia: "Stop calling me that! It's not my fault that I died so young!"

Me: "Hey! Keep picking on her and there will be no love coming your way from me!"

Sunny: "Mmmm, Bella you look ravishing. Why don't you come over to our place and we can make some trouble?"

Sides: "I can't wait to get my hands on those wings of yours."

He purred. Primus I love it when he does that! Yeesh focus girl.

Me: "Why are ya'll here?"

Lauren: " Ssssssssss...Sideswipe?! Su...Sunstreaker?! Wha-"

Sides: "See bro? Toldja she'd remember us from when we visited her last."

Sunny: "We're here to help assess whether or not she belongs in eternal damnation. The Unholy ones will be arriving shortly. As will those wretched Holy ones. Who needs them anyway?!

Me: "Ahem. Standing right here!"

Sdes: "Oh, you know we don't mean you. You're neutral anyways it shouldn't matter."

Terrin and Sheila were trying very hard to keep a straight face, as were we. It was just so funny! Lauren looked like she had seen a ghost...OH WAIT A MINUTE! (Snicker) I..I think she will have learned her lesson very soon.

With a very very elaborate light show, Prime, Jazz and Jolt appeared dressed in white robes, while Prowl, Hide and Ratchet appeared in black robes. All those in white were sporting halos and wings and all those in black were sporting tails and horns. Primus save me-hee-hee! This is soo funny!

Prime: "We are here to assess the soul of one Lauren Masters."

Lauren: "Meep."

Jazz: "Sir, Are ya certain that she belongs in the ma er, Heaven? Her record is pretty mared."

He said trying to keep a straight face. I could tell that he was trying (and losing) because he turned to where Terrin and Sheila were standing and grinned. Way to go master saboteur. Nobody noticed aside from the girls and me, thank Primus.

Prowl: "Indeed. I personally believe that she belongs in my realm. Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, well done. This soul is far past the point of bad."

Sides: "We aim to please."

Hide: "Oh she's a pretty little thing, such long hair. It will be amusing to pluck every strand,while boiling her scalp in oil."

Ratchet: "Her pheromones suggest that she is afraid. Perhaps she is not looking forward to an eternity of slow torture?"

Lauren was in tears now. Do I feel bad? (exasperated sigh) Not really but yes. Will I stop here? Nope, she deserves this.

Jolt: "I think she should tell us why she shouldn't be damned for all eternity."

Prime: "Lauren, I will give you two minutes to repent. Be honest and maybe you will be spared."

Lauren: "Well..."

I cringed. If we were going to receive them he would get the oscar for the greatest performance. Prime sounded so cold as he said that, it was just so surreal.

Lauren spilled every little thing she had done wrong, which must have been hard for her because she was crying a river. I never knew that her mascara could run like that. Everyone in the courtyard was staring now, students and staff alike were gasping and cringing at some of the things she admitted to doing, this was nothing new to me. She tortured me a good amount of my life, why should it surprise me?

Prime: "Times up."

Jazz: "Well, that was disturbing."

Me: "You're telling me, then again I knew about most of it, since I was the victim of most of it."

Prime: "Is that so? Well then I must say that you are more inclined to decide her fate."

Me: "Really? Well that would make you the first soul that I reaped that I get to choose for. Cool."

Lauren: "P..please! Spare me! I'm sorry for all that I have done to you!"

Me: "No you're not. You have spoken ill of me every time you got a chance, even after I died. That is not okay."

Lauren: "Buh,buh,buh, but I. I'M JEALOUS OF YOU!"

Me: "WHY?!"

Lauren: "Because you're so good at so many things! I can't bake, or sing, or dance or do anything special!"

Me: "So you picked on me?! Those were all learned talents! Geeze!"

Lauren: "Please! I dont wanna die! I don't wanna be tortured!"

Sides: "Oh quit your blubbering! It's not that bad!"

Sunny: "Yeah, after they peel off your skin and boil you in acid for a while, it's not so bad. And if you're strong enough, then maybe you can become a demonic entity like us!"

Lauren: "I don' wanna be like you! I want to see my family! I wan' my Mom! Can I least say good bye? (Sob)"

Wow, well you learn something new each day. She meanwhile couldn't stop crying. Insert eye roll here. She's lucky that this is just a prank.

Me: "(Sigh) You are way too lucky that I am so forgiving. I know how it feels not to say goodbye, so I ask that we make this a near death occurrence. But only if you promise to be kinder to all those around you. If I see that you're speaking ill of me again I will not hesitate to put in that you are to be damned for all eternity. Got it?"

Lauren: "Yeh yes! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

Prime: "I will make this a near death experience, but only if the principal of this school agrees to punish her accordingly. That means calling the authorities, and her parents and telling them what she has done."

Principal: "Done."

Prime waved his hand and the holoform disappeared, making many gasp.

Prime: "Good. Now we will be going."

Jazz: "Stay in school ya'll. An do the right thing."

Hide: "Drat! I was looking forward to torturing her!"

Ratchet: "Don't worry, she is young, she could easily keep going down the wrong roads. We may see her yet!"

He purred with an evil smile directed at Lauren.

Tia: "See you back at my place for cake?"

Me: "Yeah, just give me a sec."

Sunny: "You are way too forgiving!"

Sides: "Yeah!"

Me: "In that case then I guess I wont forgive you two for-"

They kissed me before I could say more. I giggled when they stopped. Both had that evil grin that they wore so well. Primus I love them.

Lauren: "How?"

Me: "Angel of death. I'm pretty much neutral, I dont help sway the public to do good or bad, I just collect their souls for judgement. I live in Heaven but make frequent trips to Hell and Earth. Kinda like a grim reaper I suppose. Plus I've always liked bad boys."

S.S: "That's us! See you back in the realms sweetheart!"

They said as they flew into the now visible ground bridge portal.

Terrin: "Well. I guess this'll be the last we see of you?"

Sheila: "No fair! Although I will say that I like your wings. They are a very pretty raven black."

Me: "Thanks. And for now yes. I am an angel of death, I wouldn't be too glad to see me at any time soon if I were you."

I chuckled, as I glided to the portal. I'll call them in an hour and a half. This'll be so funny. Especially since it was recorded!

When I got to the other side and the portal closed, I was met roaring laughter.

Sides: "That was so funny!"

Sunny: "Prowl, I didn't know you had it in you to look that evil!"

Me: "Oh and lets not forget Jazz, winking at my friends! (Snicker) That's right I saw you! Wheeljack, thank you for doing this."

Wheeljack: "Don't mention it. Thank you for letting me gather more information on holoform technology. Hound will be pleased with my findings."

Hide: "That was more fun than I thought it would be! Still got it Ratchet!"

Ratchet: "I was simply stating a fact. But I won't lie her expression was amusing."

Me: "And then we have you Prime. I never knew you could sound so cold!"

Prime: "Years of dressing down troops have given me great practice. I believe that she regrets the decisions she has made in her life thus far."

Me: "Oh no doubt. Thank you guys for helping me do this. I really appreciate it."

Prime: "Anytime. Let us know if she needs to haunted again. I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we would be more than happy to assist should she begin tormenting sentient life again."

Jazz: "Especially if Terrin an Sheila are the victims. They ma buds so ah gotta stick up for em too!"

He said as we left Wheeljack to his work. We all went our separate ways, and by that I mean that most of us went to the rec room. Oh, before I forget I better call the girls. While I do that, I think I will look up some old childrens shows for my kids to watch. Man that sounds strange. The sas quartet (that's what people are beginning to call them, well minus Tia. She insists on calling them her mini quartet) is doing well. Aside from moving and waking me up at night, and their near constant hunger everything is going well. I'm due in a month and everyone is rushing to get everything done in time. Our nursery was finished yesterday, and the playpen will be done by the end of the week. Tia and Jolt are trying to finish their wedding preparations, and finalize their honeymoon plans. I think they're going to comic con.

Sides: "Hey. Watcha doing?"

Me: "Talking to Sheila, and Terrin while looking up shows for our kids to watch when they have some down time."

Sunny: "What do you mean by "when they have some down time."?"

Me: "I want our kids to be read to, and to play outside when possible. When they're not doing those things, or sleeping they will be indulged with t.v.. Specifically some of the shows I grew up with, you know stuff like Madeline, Care Bears, Power Rangers, Strawberry Shortcake, The Magic School Bus, Stanley, Out of the Box, Hey Arnold, Swat Kats, 64 Zoo Lane,Schoolhouse Rock,Sesame Street...you know just to name a few."

Mikaela: "The nostalgia...ah it takes me back to when we lived in a simpler time."

Jolt: "Simpler time? What about right now isn't simple?"

Mikaela: "I'm living on a secret base that's inhabited by alien robots from another planet, two of which were once human beings who were murdered by an evil alien robot and were brought back from the dead as alien robots. Of the two one is pregnant with four offspring. These same robots happen to be fighting in an intergalactic war that has been going on for like a million years, against more evil alien robots who hate the human race and has tried to extinguish it on several occasions in 8 years. Tell me how one thing out of those sentences is simple."

I cracked up. She's right, our predicament sounds highly insane. Though it would make a great plot for a movie.

Jolt: "Okay, okay. I see your point, it does from your point of view seem a bit absurd."

Tia: "A bit?"

Jolt: "Okay a lot."

Sides: "Changing the subject, have you thought of any names? Say hi to the girls for me."

Me: "They say hi and no I haven't. I feel conflicted. I know that they'll have middle names. But everyone here save for the human allies, Tia and I has a literal name."

Jolt: "2 Questions; 1)Would you be able to make a cake consisting of 5 tiers of both strawberry shortcake with whipped cream and yellow cake with chocolate frosting? 2)What do you mean by that?"

Me: "1)Yes, that's like child's play for me. 2)Let me answer your question with a question; Sideswipe what did you do before the war?"

Sides: "I was one of the best sword fighters in the gladiatorial pits. You knew this bae."

Me: "Sunstreaker aside from fighting what were you into before the war?"

Sunny: "I was the best muralist that Kaon had ever known, my art even as a youngling was proudly displayed in museums. Why?"

Me: "Jolt, what do you currently do for a living? And what is your favorite weapon to use?"

Jolt: "I'm a junior medic, and my lightning whips are my favorite weapons. Oh. A-heh I see where you're going with this."

Tia: "Good, now will you tell me, cause I don't follow."

Jolt: "Our names have or explain aspects of who were are as people. Get it? Sideswipe is both a sword maneuver and he is the best swordsman we have."

Mikaela: "Elita-1...elite one. She does run an elite team of femmes."

Sides: "Optimus Prime...Huh, never noticed that. He's optimistic and he gained the matrix of leadership in what many consider to be the prime of the war."

Sunny: "He was and still is pretty young to have the title. Maybe it has something to do with his age as well."

Tia grinned madly, and then burst into a wild fit of giggles.

Me: "Please tell me you're thinking of what I am right now."

Tia: "Does it have something to do with My Little Pony?"

Me: "Actually, It had to do with picking strong names for my kids, but I like where you're going."

Jolt: "What does a childrens show have to do with our designations?"

Tia: "Ahaha, ha ha ahhhh. Ahem, in the show, each character has what is known as cutie mark on their flank. This mark is in correlation to their name, and their abilities; for example Rainbow Dash has a cloud with a rainbow colored lightning flash coming out of it. This represents not only her name, but also the fact that she can fly, is the best at it, and has come up with what can only be called the sonic rainboom, an event that occurs when she breaks both the sound and color spectrum at the same time. Her name, much like every other bots save for mine and Bella's is literal. It defines who she is and her abilities."

Mikaela: "Oh that is too funny!"

Sides: "That is humiliating!"

Sunny: "Tell me about it! Our kids will have only the best names! Nothing silly like Rainbow dash!"

At that point I felt an internal alarm go off. Something in my greenhouse needed to be checked on.

Me: "I better go check my experiments. I think something is done growing."

Sides: "Okay, you know I know of Cybertronian names that would fit you and Tia."

Me: "Oh what's that?"

Sides: "Tia could be called Melody, and You could be called Headmistress."

Me: "I understand Tia's but what's up with mine?"

Sunny: "You tend to decapitate your foes and you do so dressed as a-"

Me: "Okay I get it. I kinda like that. Who knows maybe that will stick? Fudge gotta go! I think a watermelon might explode!"

I said as I briskly walked to my lab. Thank Primus! It's all good.

Sideswipe's point of view

All this talk of children has given me some ideas for pranks. Hey just because I'm becoming a dad doesn't mean that I'll stop causing mischief. Heck maybe I can get the kids involved when they're old enough.

Me: "Hey bro?"

Sunny: "Yes?"

Sides: "You up for a little walk?"

Sunny: "Why? Bella's-oomf"

I elbowed him in the side. Geeze and he says I'm dense. I got him to leave the rec room with me, and got him to follow me to our quarters. The nursery turned out nice. They wound up tearing down the wall that separated what was at one point Bella's old room and using that they made our nursery. It's a pretty sweet set up with a rocking chair and cribs and some of the finished toys, as well as a tv and many stuffed animals. Sunstreaker even painted a mural on the wall of one of Cybertron's forests. It's quite beautiful.

Sunny: "Okay, why did you drag me to our room?"

Me: "I wanted to know if you were up for a little prank."

Sunny: "Hmmm. Two in one day? You sure thats a good idea?"

Me: "Has that ever stopped us?"

Sunny: "Nope. Whatcha got in mind?"

Me: "Remember the first prank we pulled on Bella? Think we could make it bigger and get Hide and the others? We'd have to do it in the rec room."

Sunny: "Ahh that was a classic one. I think we can, so who's overriding the rec room doors and Who's gonna lead em in?"

Me: "I'll lead you override?"

Sunny: "Sounds good. Good luck out running Hide!"

We waited a few hours until the rec room was full of soldiers and began our plan. Getting Ratchet and Prowl was easy, since Hide called over the com. link that he was going to rip my arms off for slapping him in the back of the helm while he was kissing Chromia. Do I have an offline wish? Haha no. The only thing that would keep him from doing this would be the fact that I'll be a dad in a month. Man that sounds weird. As I hoped Hide chased me into the room where Will, Epps, Ratchet, Prime, Prowl and Jazz were talking, I spread a thin dust of itching powder as I went. This'll be good! I soon skidded out the other door as Sunny closed it abruptly.

WHANG!

Sunny: "Oooooo. Hide came in a bit too hot there dontcha think?"

Me: "Had to...really...run. Whew! Are we set?"

Sunny: "Yep. And I have video feed. What should they watch first?"

Me: "I think the Care bears family would be appropriate."

Hide: "You two slaggers! OPEN THE FRAGGING DOORS!"

Me: "Ah,ah,ah! Whats the magic word?"

Prime: "Please?"

Sunny: "Very good Prime! But unfortunately because of Ironhide's rude behavior you'll be stuck in there for a while with them."

Me: "Oh but don't worry, we left some entertainment for you guys."

From inside the rec room;

Care bears countdown! 4,3,2,1!

Will: "NOOOOO!"

Epps: "NOT AGAIN! SOMEBODY BREAK THE DAMN DOORS DOWN! PLEASE!"

Graham: "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! WHY AM I SO ITCHY?!

S.S: "Have fun!"

We said as we left to go hide. Warehouses. Cant live without em'.

Sunny: "Look at that, Prowl's glitched again."

Me: "That's like the third time! Ahhh. Somethings never stop being funny!"

Sunny: "You know, I was thinking. Maybe we should convert some of these crates into a fort for the sparklings."

Me: "Why? That makes no sense. They won't be able to walk for a while let alone the fact that they shouldn't be in here alone."

Sunny: "Don't you think I know that? I mean we can bring them here to play. You know make them a secret fort?"

Me: "I like that. What are they watching now?"

Sunny: "Duck tales, after this we'll have em watch my little pony. Well, Graham's lost it."

He said innocently. I looked at the data pad to see that Graham had stoped scratching and joined the others at the doors in a desperate attempt to try and pry them open. In his defense that theme song is annoying. All of a sudden Prime stood up and took out his rifle.

Sunny: "Uh bro...you seeing this?"

BOOOM!

Me: "Oh, slag. We're dead! His optic is twitching!"

Sunny: "Relax, this is the last place they'd look."

[Me: "Then why do I hear footsteps?! Run!"]

[Sunny: "Where? There isn't a back door! We're trapped! This is all your fault! I knew I shouldn't have listened to you! You always get us into trouble!"]

[Me: "Do not! You could have said no! Maybe we can get into the vents?"]

I opened an air duct to find that it was too small even for our alts. As soon as I made this realization, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I was yanked back with quite some force. This is bad.

Hide: "Ah, ah, ah! There's no escaping this!"

Me: "Wha...what are going to do to us?"

Ratchet: "Oh you'll see."

He chuckled evilly as he held up a can of paint. Primus have mercy on our souls.

3 HOURS LATER IN THE BRIG

[Me: "Well...it could be worse."]

I said while sucking on my pacifier. They had collectively held Sunny and I down, painted us baby powder pink, stuck magnified binkies in our mouths and put us in bonnets. Could it be worse? Sure, but not by much seeing that many had come by to make fun of us already.

[Sunny: "Shut up. I don't wanna hear anything more of it."]

Will: "This is so rich! Nicely done big guy!"

Prime: "Thank you Major Lennox. I would also like to thank you for letting us borrow your daughter's old dvds."

Will: "Have fun you two!"

He said as they left us. Ha, I thought it wouldn't get any worse. 7 hours of Barney and friends. I will not let Bella show the quads that show. Never.

Normal point of view.

Me: "C'mon! I know I need to bake the cake by tomorrow, but guys this is ridiculous."

I said to the quadruplets as I was met with more movement from them. They seem to be enthralled with some bots voices, of course they respond to me, Sunny and Sides. But they seem to like Prime's, Tia's, Elita's and Ratchet's voices. I'm not sure why. So why am I awake? Two reasons; Like I stated previously I gotta get the cake done today for it to be done for tomorrow (plus brownies sound good right now). The second being that the sparklings wouldn't stop doing the cha cha. I think they're hungry, fine with me. Mmmmm brownies. So here I am at 3 a.m putting cake into the oven and making brownies on the lowest setting on my blaster. I love having armor that can do this.

Prime: "And here my comrades is our recreational room. Ah Mrs. Brinks, why are you awake? I thought that Ratchet has began forcing you to recharge regularly."

Me: "Sir, please call me Bella. Everyone else does. And yes the good doctor has threatened forced sedation if I kept myself awake, but I'm not. Not this time."

New Guy: "Prime who is she?"

Prime: "Ah my apologies Hound. This is Arabella Brinks. Elita's third in command, head tactical advisor, and warrior trainer. Arabella, this is Hound, Inferno, Bluestreak, Blurr,Firestar,Flareup,Windblade,Greenlight,Lancer,and Glyph."

Hound: "Well hello there! It's nice to see another femme on the force."

Me: "Oy. There is a lot of you. Nice to meet you all too. Anyone want a brownie? Prime?"

Prime: "I shouldn't Ratchet would-"

Me: "He's not here, and they've got sweetened energon and nuts in them. I have a normal batch coming out later."

Prime: "Nuts?"

Me: "Yes, walnuts. I wont tell if you wont."

He smiled and took a few brownies for himself.

Glyph: "Excuse me, what is a brownie?"

Inferno: "It appears to be butter, sugar, cocoa,some form of earth protein as referred to as a nut, and sweetened energon."

Me: "Okay...yes that is what this brownie is...do you want one?"

Bluestreak: "May I have one? You know if that is okay with you? Well I suppose you wouldn't ask if it wasn't okay would you? I'm so sorry I just really wanna make friends-"

Me: "It's okay Bluestreak. You can have one, everyone can have one if they want. Pardon me I need to check on the wedding cake."

Prime: "Ah, so that is why you are out of recharge?"

Me: "No, the sparklings are why, I just don't wanna be staring at my ceiling for the next four hours. Might as well get this done."

Blurr: "Excusemebutwhatisawedding?"

Me: "Uhhm What did you say?"

Blurr: "Whatisawedd-"

Flareup: "He like the rest of us wants to know what a wedding is."

Prime: "The ceremony where two bots become sparkbonded."

Greenlight: "How peculiar. We usually do not hold ceremonies for such things, only the wealthiest could afford such a thing. And of course there is the ceremony where the Prime takes his consort."

Firestar: "Who is getting bonded?"

Prime: "Jolt and Tia are getting bonded tomorrow. Speaking of which I must leave you, I have some paper work to fill out. My apologies."

Me: "Don't work too hard."

I called lightly after him.

Me: "Goodie the cakes are almost done now to go to my lab for the fruit."

Glyph: "You have a lab?!"

Hound: "You're sparked?!"

Me: "Yes and yes. If anyone wants to see my lab you should come with me, seeing that I'm the only one who has access to it."

I called as I began to waddle to my lab. Yes I waddle. Don't make fun, you'd do it too if you were the equivalent of being 8 and a half months pregnant.

Inferno: "Why is that? All commanding officers should have access to all buildings on base."

Me: "Well mine is kinda a Christmas present, and don't worry I'll tell you what that is later."

I said as I opened the doors to my lab. Everyone gawked I however was looking at the one ton strawberry that I had grown for the occasion. Here's the trick to it; very low grade energon mixed with nitrogen and miracle grow. When done just right you get giant fruit, when done wrong you get exploding fruit. Yeah ever have to scrape exploded pumpkin off forty foot ceilings while pregnant? Fun!

Bluestreak: "If you don't mind my asking When are you due? And who may I ask is the sire?"

Me: "I am due in...oh what's today? Wednesday? About two weeks give or take. And as to who the sire is-"

My com. link beeped through (Sigh) this could be one of five people.

Me: "Hello."

Sunny: "Arabella! . .Up?!"

Me: "(huff) In my lab getting a strawberry for the wedding cake. I'm also showing the new arrivals my lab."

Sides: "You need to rest! You know what Ratchet said!"

Me: "Oh for the love of Cybertron! Since when have either of you listened to the Hatchet?!"

Silence drifted over the link. That's what I thought.

Flareup: "No. Fragging. Way. You-"

Me: "Accomplished the seemingly impossible? Yes I have been told that. In my defense they are very charming, and caring and they don't look half bad either."

I said as I held up my ring hand showing everyone the ring.

Hound: "Well I'll be bound, gagged and sent screaming to the pit! I never thought they had it in them!"

Inferno: "I'll say! The terror twins have finally settled down! Thank you!"

Sunny: "Ah Inferno! My mech! I see you've met my wife, who by the way should be resting!"

Me: "Do you want to tell Jolt and Tia tomorrow that they won't have cake?!"

Sides: "No, but the sparklings-"

Me: "Are fine, they're actually the reason I'm conscious right now. You know if you want me to rest, you'll help help me move this strawberry to the kitchen."

Sunny: "Only one?"

Me: "It literally weighs a ton. I just need you to carry it and then I can mince it when I get to the kitchen."

With a huff the two complied and soon enough I had cut my strawberry into several slices that would be layered beautifully.

Windblade: "Pretty impressive blade skill you got there."

Me: "Thank you, I am a bladesman as well as a tactician."

Lancer: "I have two questions if you do not mind."

Me: "Ask away."

Lancer: "First of all who is Tia, and second are you having more than one sparkling?"

Me: "Well yes I'm having more than one. Heh I'm actually having four. The first and only split spark quadruplets. And Tia is-"

Tia: "UP HERE!"

She shouted as she repelled down in her pretender mode.

Hound: "An organic?"

Cue the James Bond theme song.

Tia: "Oh, Im no organic. Give me a sec to get down, ah here we go. I have what has been deemed a pretender mode."

She said as she transformed into her standard bipedal mode.

Tia: "Hi, I'm Tianna Amity Marquez, but please call me Tia everyone does. I am also 4th in command to Elita-1 as her special operations head and her flight commander. Nice to meet you."

Everyone gawked, hmm seems like a theme with this bunch.

Me: "This is Tia, femme of four thousand friendly faces and one of my best friends, and as of tomorrow she will be spark bonded to-"

Tia: "Jolt!"

Jolt: "Hey boo. Arabella."

He warned. Sweet Cybertron with a side of pudding, leave me be!

Me: "Do you not want cake tomorrow?"

Jolt: "Shutting up. But you do need rest."

Me: "And I will get it, but only if you guys stop trying to stop me from getting this done."

Jolt: "How far along are you?"

Me: "Just need to layer and frost. Thank you multi tasking! Want a brownie?"

Tia: "Dont mind if I do. So I presume ya'll the new arrivals?"

She asked as she struck up a conversation with them.

Jolt: "How did you accomplish this in so little time?!"

Me: "Multi tasking. To quote my grandmother; "Men get the muscle mass, women get the ability to multitask." I can do about three or four things at once with ease."

I said as I began to layer and frost the cake.

After my mandatory seven hours of rest I spent the rest of the day getting to know the new arrivals. All of them seem pretty cool. Bluestreak has actually volunteered himself for spark sitting when we need it in the future. I cant believe I'll be a mom in two weeks! I cant wait to see my sparklings for the first time!

A/N: Again nuf said. This is the second to last chapter...which means in the next we meet the sparklings! Hope you like it, sorry it's so long. Next chapter will have a long Author's note so you've been warned. So I'll ask for last time...Pretty please Rate, Review, Follow and Favorite! Love ya!
