OK Here is chapter to everyone!Enjoy Everyone but Repo,SonicWave,Whiteflame and Tonesound belong to HASBRO this was written by me and MissCHSparkle!

"Grandsire...he told us...his body...was being experimented on," Cliffjumper said in a and Bee went optic wide at the realization." that afthole! He stooped that low!" The firetruck shouted standing up fist clenched."What are you talking about?" Arcee asked with a frown as Ratchet's mouth fell open.

" M-My sire's body is in the servos of Shockwave?" He asked as Cliffjumper nodded.

" his ghost said so" the red mini said.

" ok ok hold on! Ghost? What is going on " chromia asked what was on the femmes minds."We know it's crazy," Bumblebee said quickly. "But a ghost claiming to be Ratchet's Sire showed up and everything he said, Ratchet and Cliffjumper confirmed. As the Femmes digested this, some clearly weren't convinced, Sideswipe said slowly.

"Hey, if Shockwave is experimenting on him...do you think that's why we saw a ghost? Maybe it's a by product of whatever's happening and Old one optic doesn't know about it?"

" sounds possiple" sunstreaker agreed.

" then why was he hanging at his old house?" Inferno asked.

" because he died there? That's what spike told me that ghost mostly haunt were they died at" bee said.

" then why did I see him at the edge of Praxus which is far from here" Ratchet said.

" they also haunt relatives?"

"What does it matter?" Cliffjumper exclaimed. "We can work out the where and why later, right now, we've gotta rescue him. Who knows what that fragger'll do to him, he might turn him into a Con!"

" Then lets go before that happens!" Inferno shouted.

" Sweet!" The lambo twins high fived.

" I'm coming with" Arcee said she knew where Shockwave's project started to haul himself to his feet.

"You okay to go Ratch?" Bumblebee asked.

"I ain't leaving my Sire in that hands of that slagger," Ratchet growled. "And if there's anyway I can make up for what I did, I'm gonna do it."

" but your side" cliffjumper said.

" .going" the medic growled getting up.

He got up and they left to where Shockwave was,and when they got there Ratchet was gonna hurt the one optic con!."I'll watch his back," Arcee assured the red Mech before hurrying to the Medic's side. Cliffjumper stared before smiling, looks like his uncle had made and impression on the pretty Femme. And if he wasn't mistaken, she had done the same.

When they got to Shockwave's building they snuck in through a vent.

" you OK Ratchet?" Arcee whispered noticing the older cybertronian wincing once in awhile, she had to admit he was cute."Yeah," he grunted. "I've just gotta do this, Arcee."

"I understand," she said with a nod. "But let me know if there's a problem."

"I will I will" Ratchet replied as they hit a air ducked and looked through it.

They saw Shockwave at the controls Repo's body in the slab with wires on the new spark group couldn't help but freeze, morbidly fascinated by what was happening. Could Shockwave really bring this Mech back to life? And just why was he interesting in bring him online, did he just happen to grab a random body or was there a deeper purpose."Once this mech is back on line I know my research will bring back others who have fallen in this war" the one optic mech said pushing more buttons before pulling a switch.

the body on the slab twitched and stired but that was all.

"Hmm..might need a few more calibrations " Shockwave said when the body stopped twitching."He's working to bring others back?" Bumblebee whispered in complete astonishment. "I don't believe it."

"Neither do I," Chromia murmured, a strange edge of her voice.

"Imagine," Sideswipe said in awe. "We could bring some of our friends back online."

"Yeah" sunstreaker said in agreement."But should we even go against that law? what if they're enjoying the afterlife?" Arcee said.

"What if their not?" Inferno questioned. "There might be creators who want to be with their creations."They all considered this, it was a difficult question.

"If he bring grandsire back online...," Cliffjumper said slowly "Should we ask him what he feels about it?"Everyone nodded at ghe pulled the switch again and the body jolted sitting up taking a deep intake optics glowing online.

"H-Huh? What?" Repo said looking around coughing his vents clear of debrey that has been building up hand flew to his chest as dust and debris flew from his mouth and he hacked."Excellent," Shockwave said, clear satisfaction.

Repo looked up at him with a confused. "Who...who are you? What am I doing here?"

"I am Shockwave top scientist of the Decepticon army" he said walking over adding "And you are the first of my project to raise old decepitons who have fallen in this war."

"Decepticon?" Repo asked between coughs.

"Indeed," Shockwave said before asking. "You seem rather disorientated but it is to be expected. You were deactivated some time ago."Repo's optics grew wide as he exclaimed.

"I...I have sons, one of them not full grown...do you know what has happened to them?"

"I have none on what your children are and if I did they be offlined from this war" the decepticon replied.

"He doesn't remember anything from being a ghost?" Cliffjumper asked quietly.

"But...you don't know for sure they are offline?" Repo said rather frantically. "My sons could still be alive."

"It is possible," Shockwave acknowledged. "Will you come with me now? I would like to show Lord Megatron my success."Repo got up from the slab nearly falling to the floor but managed to catch himself. "O-Ofcourse" he said before following the decepticon.

"Damn, he's totally confused," Inferno said with a wince.

"Mmm, I wouldn't mind knowing what old bucket head has to say about this," Chromia stated. "Let's see this before we bust your Sire out, alright Ratchet?"With a frown Ratchet nodded before they started following him through the still wasn't a hundred percent steady on his feet but he managed to walk behind Shockwave all the way to the Communication Room. Once there, Shockwave rapidly typed in some commands and within a few breems, Megatron appeared on the screen.

"Shockwave," Megatron greeted. "Why are you calling?"

"My lord, I've called you to show the results of my latest experiments," the purple Mech declared, gesturing for Repo to come rusted green and black mech walked over caustly and waved hello."Hello" he greeted nervously,normally he wasn't so nervous but he was confused about everything.

"Hmm, you look familiar," Megatron said thoughtfully, looking the slightly dusty Mech up and down. "But what was this experiment, Shockwave?"

"Bringing offlined bots back to life," Shockwave declared proudly. "Before you stands my first success."The silver mech looked at Repo in thought "What do you remember?" he asked.

"All I remember is my youngest child in my room,then a gun shot and then I wake up here" Repo replied holding his raised an optic brow.

"Your child shot you?"

"I...I think he might of," Repo said slowly. "But it wouldn't have been on purpose, he didn't know his way around weapons."That did make sense most children don't know how to use the Vents Chromia looked at Ratchet in surprise as the medic had a look of guilt at the saw that Cliffjumper didn't look surprised, he obviously already knew this."Hey," Arcee said gently. "He doesn't blame you, he wants to find you."Ratchet swallowed heavily.

"How I look familiar to you?" Repo asked Megatron with a frown.

"There is a resemblance," Megatron said slowly. "I believe I may have met your offspring."

He suddenly smiled and said. "Or I may have seen you around Kaon."Repo frowned in confusion he never been to Kaon only on his assassination missions.

"Really?" he asked.

Megatron nodded thoughtfully before asking.

"What are the name of your sons?"

"Ratchet and Ironhide" was the reply before another cough,Primus when will he be clear of debre?!Megatron's optics suddenly narrowed and he said slowly.

"Yes...I can see them in you."

"Then they are alive," Repo said in relief. "Do you know where they are now?"

"With the autobots enimies of the Decepticons" the con leader growled."Enemies?" Repo said in confusion. "What do you mean by that?"

"You don't seem very well informed," Megatron stated. "The Autobots and Decepticons are sworn enemies and have been for millennia now. To put it bluntly, we are at war."Repo held his helm in confusion as he prossed the info,There was a war? he heard shockwave mention it but he thought there was a short war between to cities not the whole planet!."I don't believe this," he muttered to himself. "Just...how did this happen?"

"A very long Story" Megatron said, Ratchet was itching to get his sire out of the place but it wasn't his call.

"What are we going to do?" whispered Bumblebee.

"I say we just get Repo out of here" Sideswipe said noticing the now living mech about to glitch."Yeah, before he gets more confused or Megatron tries to sweet talk him," agreed then got out of the vents surprising the mechs."Who are they?" Repo asked pointing at the group.

"Sire, it's me...R-ratchet," the Medic cried, stumbling over his name in case his creator reacted with disgust.

"Autobots!" Shockwave exclaimed. "How did you get in here?"

"Ratchet!?" Repo asked surprised last he saw the mech he was ten.A smile pulled at his face he was just happy he was alive."Son, you're alive," he exclaimed before noticing that Shockwave had a weapon.

"Prepare to die" he shouted but was attacked from behind hitting the ground with a grunt as the controls starting sparking as Repo was seen over the out cold con holding a screw driver in his hand. Least he wasn't rusty in his fighting skills."Wasn't he just confused a second ago?" Bumblebee asked surprised at what he and the others saw.

"Shockwave isn't dead right?" Ratchet asked his sire who walked over."Nope just out cold I Guess I still got the moves" Repo asked smiling nervously.

"Oh yes you do," Megatron stated, he'd remained calm as there was little point in getting agitated when he was on Earth and they Cybertron. "Tell me...just what did you do before you offlined?"The rusted mech looked at the screen "I was a assassin I was gonna quit that life though" he answered honestly."Shame, you clearly know what you're doing," Megatron stated with a smile.

"Yeah was running it's course though" The older mech said with a shrug.

"Lets get out of here Talking to Megatron is enough for me Lets go Old mech" Sunstreaker said before getting elbowed by Ratchet."OW! What?" he shouted as they started leaving with Repo who was looking around.

"Something tells me I need to catch up alot huh?" he asked his son who they started to head for the exit, Megatron called after them."I'll have my optic on you assassin, think about your options very carefully."

Repo looked back abit but followed the others as the screen went black.

When they exited the building the rusted covered mech felt optics on him "OK who ever is staring at me could you make yourself known it's just getting creepy" he said looking behind him seeing it was Chromia looking at him.

"Uh...my name's Chromia," she said with a small smile. "Ironhide's my mate."

"He's mated?" Repo said, hardly able to believe that one of his boys already had a family."Yes...and this is our son," she said with a wider smile, indicating red mini bot waved hello "hey"

"I really missed alot" the assassin said holding his head as they headed to the femmes base.

"You'll be caught up to speed Sire" Ratchet said.

"Thanks," he said before asking. "Where is your brother?"

"He's back on Earth," Ratchet replied making Repo frown. "Earth?"

"The planet the autobots are on it's actually good place ignoring Cliffjumpers griping about the organics that live there along with Sunstreaker." The medic replied."By the way..what do you do for these Autobots?" His father asked honestly curious.

"Well, I'm their head medic," Ratchet explained. "And Ironhide is the weapons specialist and the Prime's bodyguard."

"I'm not surprised about the weapon specialist thing but he's prime's bodyguard?" Repo asked amazed then added nervously."I get the feeling when I come with you guys he won't let me near anyone." He still remeber Ironhide hating him for his job heck they had alot of arguements about it.

"He missed you Sire," Ratchet said quietly. "And as long as you're not with the Decepticons and aren't a danger to the Prime, he'll be fine with you coming with us."

"I guess ;I just still have the memory of the last few times we saw eachother" Repo replied with a sigh before coughing. "OK I need to stop coughing!" He shouted getting agitated from coughing up debre how much could he have!?

"When we get back to base, I'll look you over," Ratchet promised. "Your vents will need cleaning out."They finally arrived at the base entering it,while they were on their way to the medbay Chromia pulled over Cliffjumper wanting a word with her son.

"You knew what happened with Ratchet and Repo? And didn't say anything?"

"I only just found out," he explained. "There wasn't really time to discuss it further."

OK that made sense abit but one thing prayed on her mind 'How you think your sire will handle the info?"

"Uh," he said nervously. "I don't know."

"He's gonna find out sooner or later" Chromia said with a sigh."I know," Cliffjumper said softly. "But maybe it'll help uncle get over his guilt at least."The blue femme nodded in agreement before saying "If he even tells him, knowing your uncle he'll just keep it to himself."

"I think grandsire already knows part of it," Cliffjumper reasoned. "He'll probably want to know everything."

"Only time will tell" Chromia said as they joined the others."Yeah," her son said as his uncle began working on his layed still as Ratchet examined him.

"You've got some rust, I'll need to take care of that after I've cleaned out your vents," Ratchet told him."Alright" was the carefully worked on his Sire, feeling strange as this had previously been a dead first started cleaning the mechs vents he couldn't imagine how it felt to have this much stuff in his vents.

"Let me know if this is too much," he told his patient softly. "Just raise your hand."Repo gave a thumbs smiled before continuing.

"Need a hand with anything?" Arcee asked, coming over.

"Nope everything seems to be OK" was the reply from the medic.

"Good," she said. "Your side's not troubling you?"the medic paused before shaking his head. "It's fine, I'll get it checked again on Earth."

The young femme nodded smiling. Repo raised his hand he was starting to get dizzy."What is it?" Ratchet asked quickly."Starting to get really dizzy " was the reply.

"Hmm," Ratchet said. "Let me run a diagnostic."With a quick scan Ratchet found that Repo's equilibrium chips were fried,which actually would explain his walking also."We need to replace a few parts," he declared." ok" the patient groaned

"I'll do as much as I can to make you comfortable until we can get them," Ratchet assured sire smiled and nodded before laying back optics offlining hoping to stop the smiled, it was nice to see his Sire at peace.

Meanwhile Bumblebee was getting tired,looking around he spotted a free berth but didn't want to incase someone needed to use it."Are you alright?" Arcee questioned, spotting the younger bot."Hm? Huh? Yeah just tired" the yellow minibot said honestly with a yawn."You should get some rest, you never know when you might need your energy," she advised, gesturing towards the empty berth."OK..But won't anyone be needing that berth?" Bee asked.

"Bumblebee don't pull what Ratchet did" Sideswipe said right before a wrench hits his head. "OW!"

The medic mentioned grumbled as Repo was holding back a laugh."Funny," Ratchet grumbled before gesturing with another tool. "Get on the berth Bumblebee, if it's needed, you can always move."Bee quickly got onto the berth not wanting a dent in his head layed down and was soon fast asleep."Doesn't he look cute?" Sunstreaker snickered at the sight of the Minibot sleeping."Yeah" his twin snickered rolled his optics 'it takes him being in recharge for them to say that?' he thought with a frown.

"Bumblebee is cute," he declared. "And funny and kind. Any bot would be lucky to be with him."

"You got a crush on him Cliff?" The red lambotwin asked with a smirk.

Oh the twins were just asking for it."No, I don't," he said flatly. "And I'm not his type."

"Bumblebee has a type?" Both the lambos asked.

"Oi!" the red mini exclaimed with a face palm.

"What?" they both asked in confusion as Cliffjumper threw up his hands.

"Forget it," he said.

"I can guess on what he means but I'll let you two figure it out" Repo said his optics maybe closed but his audios worked."What you mean old mech?" Sunstreaker asked."Oh, you'll see," he said in an infuriatingly way that reminded them of Ratchet. Ironhide was a lot more blunt but Ratchet was more than happy to reveal what he was thinking, forcing the twins to figure it out.

Ratchet was now chuckling.

"Great there's two of them" Sideswiped smirked, he felt nice to know he might have some backup when it came to those thought for few minutes trying to think on what Cliffjumper and Repo hinted...The it hit him. "Us? Bee likes us?" he asked pointing to him and his twin who frowned in confusion.

"Oh you are smart" Cliffjumper said ok took them long enough to find scowled at the sarcasm as Sidesipe exclaimed. "Are you serious?"

"We're serious Don't ask us why he likes minibot hating mechs like you" The red minibot said with a shrug."We don't hate all Minibots," Sunstreaker defended.

"Don't seem like it" Cliffjumper retorted.

"Not our fault if bots get the wrong idea," Sunstreaker said hotly as his brother nudged him.

"It's alright Sunny," he soothed.

"Maybe it was you guys tossing both Cliffjumper and Bumblebee back and forth?" Ratchet said rolling his optics."What, that was fun!" the twins exclaimed.

"I'm just glad Prime stopped you before you guys could miss a toss" Cliffjumper said thinking back at that time."Hey Ratchet there's a dinobot wanting to talk to you on the monitor" Elita said walking into the medbay.

"He have a Vizor?" the medic asked

"No he said his name was Swoop" the pink femme replied."That's not so bad then," Ratchet said in relief, glancing down at his Sire. "will you be alright for a few breems?"His father nodded and Ratchet asked Arcee to keep an optic on him and to call if anything looked wrong. She agreed and he quickly hurried off."What's...cough...a Dinobot?" Repo asked, his coughing was a lot less than it had been."Mechs who can transform into the Planet earth's primative life forms known as Dinosaurs" Cliffjumper answered before adding "He and the autobot top engineer Wheeljack built them,And they see them as creators, they are insane!" the red minibot shouted.

"Can you people please be quiet" Bee asked waking up alil bit."Sorry bee," Cliffjumper apologised. He didn't want his friend ending up like his uncle, utterly younger Mini fell back asleep curling into a ball.

"So...I got other grandkids?" Repo asked curiously.

"Pretty much"his grandson replied.

"Not the kind you'll be expecting though," he couldn't help but add.

"If he and this Wheeljack together?" Reop asked curiously."No they aren't they're just good friends Wheeljack is with Ratchet's adopted brother Perceptor" was the reply.

"Adopted brother?" the rusted mech asked.

"Apparently after you offlined Ratchet ran away before Ironhide found your body and was taken in by Perceptor's parents." Chromia explained walking over adding "Ratchet and Ironhide didn't see eachother until after the war started"

"They were apart?" Repo said in alarm and horror, he'd just assumed that Ironhide had taken care of his little brother but this obviously wasn't so."Maybe you should've let Ratchet explain it carrier" Cliffjumper said with a wince.

"Your uncle probably would have avoided it and then Hide would have had to explain," she stated. "He still feels guilty that he wasn't there for Ratchet."

"Like Uncle feels guilty for what he did to him" her son replied pointing ar Repo who was now sitting up.

"But it was a accident" he said."Doesn't change the fact that he killed you," Cliffjumper said quietly. "Ratchet's a medic, he takes these things to spark."

"that..does make sense" the older mech said slowly,he was curious about something."How they meet again exactly?"

"Funny you could mention that it was a akward time" Cliffjumper recalling the time.

*in the past

Cliffjumper had gotten injured training it was nothing he said but does his sire listen? nope."Y'all going tah tha medic," Ironhide stated, carrying his son along a corridor."But it's nothing," Cliffjumper protested. "Anyway, I don't want some quack poking around my insides."The older red mech rolled his optics as they got closer to the medbay."Ah'm sure whoever it is, knows what they're doing," he stated as Cliffjumper snorted.

"You don't even know who this Medic is," he accused.

"I may not know him but ah'm not gonna judge" Ironhide said as they started entering the medbay but froze hearing cussing a swearing from the back of the medbay along with some yelps."FRag it all to pit!" the voice yelled. "How many times do I have to tell you, don't rush into battle without backup!"

"OW! I'm injured enough! quit it!" another voice wined.

"Are you sure you want me to see this medic?" Cliffjumper whispered to his sire.

"Yeah," Ironhide said slowly. "Ah am."he walked towards the back but froze when the voice shouted "Whoever is there pick a berth I'll be with you in a nanoklick!" OK that was creepy.

"What's the matter?" Cliffjumper asked, seeing the look on his Sire's face.

"nothing, he just...sounds a bit like someone I used to know," Ironhide said red minibot frowned in confusion as he was set on a berth."You mean like a friend?" he asked his Sire curiously.

"Ah dunno, guess we'll find out soon enough," Ironhide said with a mild minutes later the yelps stopped and a red and white mech with a grey cheveron and a medic symbol on his shoulder ."OK what happened?" the medic asked looking at Cliffjumper.

"I injured myself in training," Cliffjumper muttered, sure he was in for a lecture."And he had to drag you here? what you think it'll heal in a instent?" the medic said pointing to Ironhide before scanning the minibot."Ah just wanted mah son checked out," Ironhide said hotly."Well then what you think I'm doing?" the medic said going over to a counter for a tool adding "Your son dislocated a joint I just need to re-connect it"

"You," he said, pointing to Cliffjumper. "Stay still."

"Whatever Quak" Cliffjumper replied before yelping to a wrench to the head."What did you call me?" demanded the medic furiously as Ironhide stepped forward.

"Hey, don't you do that tah may son."

"Well your Son shouldn't have called me a quak!" the red and white mech retorted glaring at Ironhide who glared back."Well, y'all could learn some manners," Ironhide said hotly."Why should I if your son isn't showing any!" the medic replied"He's just nervous because all the way in here, y'all been yelling yer head off," Ironhide yelled."Ever thought that's how you can tell I'm CARING or do you soldiers not think that way" was the retort.

"Why are you even in this army!?" Ironhide shouted.

"Prime asked me face to face slaghead!"

Cliffjumper was getting dizzy looking back and forth between the two older mechs."Shut up!" he finally yelled, making the two glaring Mechs look down at him. "You're both giving me a headache."Shaking his head the medic fixed up Cliffjumper then said shortly after fixing the minibot "OK now leave" Cliffjumper and Ironhide started leaving but the weapon specialist stopped having gotten a pinged from Prime just as the Medic did."Guessing me and you can't stop glaring huh?" the medic grumbled before leaving the medbay after another medic came in to cover him.

"No," Ironhide grumbled back before saying. "Son, y'all go on ahead, ah gotta see tha Prime."

"Goodluck with being in the same room as the quak" CJ said before leaving as Ironhide left for Prime's he got there He saw the Medic ranting to prime about him."Why you made him your weapon specialist Prime?" The medic asked."His record for one," the Prime replied calmly. "Are you questioning his abilities? I wasn't aware you'd seen them."

"I haven't the faintest idea what his abilities are," the Medic retorted. "He's clearly not suited for the job."

"Well you certainly not suited for your job!" Ironhide shouted surprising the two mechs as he walked over.

"Prime, he's constantly yelling and cursing," he began. "And he hit mah son with a wrench for no good reason."

"He was being rude" The medic retorted "I don't stand for that!"

"Ratchet!" The prime shouted causing the Medic to stop whatever he was gonna say.

"Ratchet?" Ironhide repeated, his optics going wide.

"Yeah my name I can't have one?" Ratchet retorted."OK Properly introducing you two..Ironhide,Ratchet the Autobots head medic,Ratchet meet Ironhide Weapon Specialist of the Autobots." Optimus said .

The two looked at eachother.

"Ironhide?" Ratchet repeated in dumb surprise.

"Yeh," Ironhide agreed softly.

Optimus looked between them before saying dryly. "What am I missing?"

"Prime Ironhide is my older Brother I haven't seen him since I was ten" the head medic answered."And ah ain't seen mah little brother since ah was eighteen," Ironhide said in astonishment. "Not since..."

They both fell silent as Ratchet's face clouded over and he looked away."I see something happened..I won't ask I'm glad you two are seeing eachother again" The prime said honestly looking at the two brothers.

"Yeah..." Ironhide said awkwardly, he had no idea what to do or say. "It's...good tah know he's alive."

"The feelings the same" Ratchet replied."I'll give you a few breems alone," Optimus said gently. "I need to talk to Prowl."

He left.

Ratchet looked to his older brother and said "Sorry about what happened in the medbay"

"S'right," Ironhide muttered. "Mah son...that makes him yer nephew."

"Yep" the medic said.

"Ah got a gal called Chromia," Ironhide said after an awkward pause."Chromia? As in the toughest femme in the autobot army?" Ratchet asked in surprise.

"Yep," Ironhide said with a proud grin. "She's all mine."

"How you even ask her out? At a shooting range?" His brother said dryly.

"Now that yah mention it...," Ironhide said with a smirk, causing his brother to groan.

"Of course a shooting range " Ratchet said with a face grinned before asking. "So what about yah. Got anyone special?"

"I got no one special" Ratchet said mumbling.

"Well, plenty of time for that," Ironhide said reassuringly. "Me and Chromia kinda went fast, she was sparked up in no time."Ratchet gave his brother a stern look.

"Hey she was cute and I liked her" the red mech said deffencivly."No point in hanging around," he added.

"Well, there's nothing I can say now, not with a near grown son," Ratchet told smiled but frowned hearing a knock on the door and a black and red mech poked in."Perceptor hey" Ratchet said before adding " Ironhide meet Perceptor I lived with him since I was ten"

"Hello so you're Ironhide" Perceptor said walking over with a datapad."Yeh, his big brother," Ironhide said, eyeing the Mech before him."He told me alot about you" Perceptor replied with a smile before saying to Ratchet holding the datapad "Wheeljack said he needed you to sign that it's OK he works disprite his arm."Ratchet narrowed his optics. "He's still trying to work?"

"Yes and Ratchet he's the head engineer he needs to do his job" the younger mech replied."He's no good if he damages that arm more," retorted Ratchet. "Tell him to come in for a check up if he wants me to sign off on anything."With a nod Perceptor left the room as the medic sighed holding his head."Have you met Wheeljack yet?" he questioned his brother."Only heard stories about him" Ironhide replied

"Well, they're probably true," Ratchet stated as Ironhide asked quietly.

"Ratchet...why'd yah leave?"Looking down at his peds the medic replied "I don't want to talk about please Hide don't bring it up"

"Ah thought yer were dead or worse," Ironhide couldn't help but say. "Ah searched for yah but ah had tah give up and that hurt. Ah thought ah failed yah somehow."

"You didn't you never did"

"Really?" Ironhide asked and Ratchet nodded."Well, maybe that's why ah snapped up Chromia so fast," Ironhide said with a shrug. "Ah didn't want to lose anyone ever again."

Ratchet outright laughed."What?" Ironhide questioned, confused.

"Y-You got a femme quick because you felt guilty?"

"Well, sort of," Ironhide explained. "Ah just had such a connection tah her, we liked each other, ah just didn't want tah waste any time."

" that's understandable" the medic said smiling.

"Yeh," Ironhide agreed with a nod. "Anyway, Chromia didn't want tah wait either."

" I don't need anymore details then that" the medic said smirked.

" want to go get some energon?" Ratchet asked his brother gestering to the door."Sure," Ironhide agreed with a nod. "Ah guess ah'll have tah introduce yah to my mate and son later."

" yeah you do" his brother replied walking ahead out the door."But I'd appreciate your son not calling me a quack," he added.

"Aw, that's just cause he's stubborn, didn't even want me taking him in for a check up," Ironhide explained."Sounds like a brother of mine" Ratchet snickered as the headed for the rec remembered his brother refusing the same thing."Is that so?" Ironhide said with a smirk."Yup I remembered once Sire literally had to drag you to a medic once" the younger mech replied smirking also."Yeh, ah remember that," Ironhide said with a nod, smiling at the memory. "Y'all never had a problem going."

"Because I was interested on the Medic life" Ratchet replied.

"Yeah, sire always thought yah'd become a medic," Ironhide agreed."Oh was he right" the medic chuckled as they entered the rec didn't take long until they both were catching up on what they did while they were seperated not noticing Chromia and Cliffjumper walking over.

May 1"What the...?" Cliffjumper said in confusion, his dad and the quack were chatting like old friends.

"Hey lover," Chromia greeted, surprising Ironhide by bending over his shoulder and kissing his cheek."Chromia,Cliffjumper hey you know my brother I told ya about?" He said earning a nod as a reply."Well Meet my brother Ratchet"

"Hello or as Cliffjumper calls me the quak" Ratchet said with a wave hello.

"You called your uncle a quack?" Chromia questioned sternly as Cliffjumper exclaimed. "Hey, I didn't know he was my uncle. Sire, when did you find this out?"

"In prime's office" Ironhide answered his son."Oh," Cliffjumper said. "Kinda weird, huh?"

"Maybe but it's good to find him again," his Sire replied."Same goes to you Ironhide" Ratchet said smiling it was good to see his brother again,he just hoped the red mech wouldn't ask about that night.

present.

"You called your uncle a Quack?" Repo asked a optic ridge rizen

"Yeah," Cliffjumper sighed. "And he's never let me forget."

"No one has" Chromia giggled.

Repo chuckled but frowned as something came to mind "Is he alweays to himself? Ratchet I mean"

"Well...there are times he wants to be alone," Cliffjumper admitted. "But I think that's mostly because things can be so busy, if he isn't fighting or treating injuries, then he's dealing with the Dinobots, various issues that come up, people messing about, restocking, that sort of thing. So I think he does like to be on his own and have some peace and quiet because in general, he's really busy."The rusted mech nodded just as his son walked back in looking tired."Mental note make the medbay Grimlock and Slag proof!" Ratchet shouted.

"Again?" sighed Inferno, those two could be a menace."Yes again I love those Dinobots like my own kids but OI VEY they are a handful!" the medic ranted.

"I'm not counting them as Cousins" Cliffjumper mumbled but flinched from the stern look from his carrier."Be nice Cliff," she told him sternly.

"What?" he said.

"They're you cousins weather you like it or not" the blue femme replied as her brother in law started over to his sire again."Okay, I can continue," he said with a sigh. "When we get back to Earth, the cosmetic damage can be taken care of and anything that's non essential."Repo nodded a OK but offlined his optics getting dizzy again."Sire?" Ratchet asked, seeing this.

"I'm alright, just a little dizzy," Repo assured medic nodded in days later everyone was heading back to earth while other autobots switched with them."Tell me again What's Earth like?" Repo asked Bumblebee."It's a fun planet I think you'll like it there" the yellow mini replied explaining.

"It's all organic but the humans have plenty of cities which kinda resemble what Cybertron used to look like. Their tiny and delicate though so you need to be careful. But it's a great place and we've made loads of friends there," he older mech smiled at the thought,it sounded really great actually.

Some hours later they finally arrived at Earth Some autobots there to meet them."That's the Prime," Ratchet whispered to his Sire, indicating the large blue and red masked Mech.

" why is it that the primes are always so tall" was the whispered reply,as a Assassin he had jobs that included the Prime and he always noticed they were taller then everyone made Ratchet laugh."He wouldn't be so impressive then," he chuckled, thinking of how Optimus had once been a small Mech called Orion." eh, you have a point" the older mech replied.

Ratchet smirked as Ironhide rushed forward."You better Bro?" The weapon specialist asked.

"Yup and I like you meet someone"

He gestured to their Sire who smiled proudly at the sight of his eldest. Ironhide had turned into the strong, powerful Mech that Repo had known he would and was already a family Mech."Sire!?" Ironhide exclaimed before pulling the older mech into a hug."You're alive," he exclaimed hoarsely."Yeah I'm alive" Repo said hugging back."Ah can't believe it...how?"

"A bot called Shockwave brought me back to life as part of his experiments," Repo explained, noticing the Prime stepping closer."What experiment?" The prime asked honestly curious."To bring offlined bots back to life," Ratchet stated grimly. "Specifically, offlined Decepticons...he mistook our sire for one."

"Why did he mistake Sire for a Decepticon?" Ironhide pointed to Repo's purple optics "he has no blue optics"

"Should I be offended or insulted about that?" Repo asked.

"All Decepticons take on red optics," the Prime explained. "And all Autobots have blue, it is easier to spot a bot's optic colour than look for an insignia."

"OK makes sense..wait that make me a neutral? "Repo said jokingly at the last part."It does," Optimus agreed. "And you can remain one if you wish or join the Autobots."

"I'll think about it-What the pit is that!?" The older mech shouted seeing a dust cloud coming if anyone looked closer they see a metalic T-Rex in said cloud storming over.

"Grimlock," Ratchet sighed. "He obviously missed me."

"Sire!" Grimlock said transforming to mech mode and hugged Ratchet close when he came over."Why you go?" demanded the large Mech, glaring at all the others surrounding him and his 'sire'."I went incase they needed a medic and Grimlock your crushing me!" Ratchet explained his side wound was also hurting and the medic was worried it would open up.

"Me Grimlock sorry," the Mech said, putting him suddenly sniffed and looked over at Repo. "Who that?"

"That's my sire Repo" Ratchet said as Grimlock looked the green and black mech over."Him Sire?" Grimlock stated, sniffing him. "Him smell funny."

"The name's Repo" the ex assassin said to the Dinobot holding his servo eyed it as Ratchet hissed. "Grimlock, be nice."The T-Rex shook his 'grandsire' servo shaking it.

"We better go back to base everyone" Prime said.

"Before tha Cons get here," Ironhide added. "Sire, y'all okay tah travel?"

"Uh Not really" Repo said sheepishly."Sire still needs a few things replaced he keeps having dizzy spells" Ratchet said with a recently revived mech couldn't even transform at the moment so they had to walk most of the time."Me Grimlock take him," Grimlock declared, grabbing the surprised Mech and scooping him up."Whoa!" Repo yelped before looking down ,this mech is taller then the prime! "OK then Thanks?" he said akwardly."No problem," Grimlock said before turning and striding else followed suit to base.

When they all got there Grimlock gently set Repo onto his peds as the purple optic mech looked around,Wow alot of orange huh?.

"Nice base" he said to the autobot leader."Thank you, we haven't had a chance to redecorate yet," Optimus said, his tone amused."I think it looks cool" Repo said still looking around.

"Who's this guy?" Huffer asked walking over.

"Who's the shorty?" the ex assassin asked looking at the purple minibot."who are you calling shorty?" the Minibot said angrily."Guess" Repo said dryly before ignoring the now glaring and the lambo twins laughed as Ratchet and Ironhide face palmed at their Sire's behavior."How the pit should I know?" Huffer demanded grumpily."You got no funny chip?"

"O.K Sire lets go show you around before you cause more trouble" Ratchet said pushing his father along."I can't joke around?" Repo asked as they got farther away from the others."Not with certain bots," Ratchet advised. "Everyone's got a different sense of humour and some barely have any."

"Dully noted oof! " he said when he bumped in a mech covered in soot "Ratchet you could've stopped?" he asked his son before helping the soot covered mech up.

"Heya Ratchet who's this?" Wheeljack asked,he was coming to the entrance to say 'welcome back' to his friend but this worked also."My Sire, Repo," Ratchet introduced."Wait..How is he alive? YAH ZOMBIE!" The autobot engineer shouted jumping back.

"What's a zombie?" the green and black mech asked the medic who was shaking his head."A reanimated dead body," he explained. "But uh, still dead."

"Well I'm alive not dead" Repo said as Wheeljack kept poking him. "WILL you KINDLY STOP!" he shouted at the younger mech who stopped."sorry...but...how did this happen?" Wheeljack asked, looking fascinated."I was brought back to life by a cyclops of a decepticon to bring that the dead" Repo replied but yelped when Wheeljack suddenly circled him mumbling his lights a bright blue.

"Um Ratchet should I be worried?" he felt like a prey.

"Ignore him," Ratchet said in exasperation before shoving Wheeljack. "Jackie, give him some space, don't crowd him. I need to get him to the Med bay."

"To patch him up? I'll help," Wheeljack offered green and Black mech backed away abit no offence to the young mech but after being circled by him noway did he trust him with fixing his body."We'll see," Ratchet said. "As long as you behave."

"OK I will" Wheeljack saidThey made their way to the Med Bay which was clean and professional looking. Ratchet had done a lot of work on it, trying to bring it up to his personal standard. Just because they were at war and on an organic planet didn't mean he should slack a whistle Repo looked around in awe,boy did his son exell in life."This is incredible," he exclaimed. "Son, I'm so proud of what you've done."

"Thanks sire" Ratchet said as they came over to a berth."Are you still coughing?" Ratchet asked as Repo climbed onto a berth.

"Not much I still feel debre though" Was the reply."I'll deal with that before it causes any problems," Ratchet assured him. "I have more equipment here."

"You also got spare equilibrium chips" Repo asked he REALLY wanted to stop being dizzy.

"Yes...Jackie, would you fetch some for me?" Ratchet asked."You got it" Wheeljack said walking off to get some."Soon have you as good as new," Ratchet told his father as he sent to work on his sound good but he still felt bad for not being there for his kids when they were growing up."Ratchet," he said softly. "I'm sorry for failing you and Ironhide."The medic froze at those words then looked down at his sire in shock "What?"

"I failed you two for not being there for you " Repo said sadly.

"What? No, that's not your fault, its mine, I... Off-lined you."

"You didn't mean to you were ten" Repo said"I should have made absolutely sure you couldn't get at my weapons."

"But still-" Ratchet started but was cut off by the stern look his father was giving him."Ratchet, what happened was not your fault," he was told firmly. "I don't blame you for what happened and neither should you."The medic sighed sadly,his sire was right but he couldn't help but feels guilty.

"I know but still Sire I can't help but feel guilty"

"I know son but you must try," repo said sighed again as Wheeljack came back with the equilibrium chips."You OK Ratchet?" he sighed again as Wheeljack came back with the equilibrium chips."You OK Ratchet?" he asked."Yeah, I'm fine," Ratchet stated, he didn't feel like revealing what he and his Sire had been talking about.

" ok well I got the equilibrium chips here" the red,white and grey mech said handing said objects over."Thanks," Ratchet said, grabbing them and setting to work installing them.

Meanwhile somewhere in the ARK Bee was getting a weird feeling about the Lambo twins They have been looking at him for awhile."You okay Bee?" Jazz yellow mini shook his head as a reply "No The Twins are creeping me out they keep looking at me weirdly since we came back" he replied thumbing at said glanced at them before looking back at Bee. "Yeah, they are looking at you a lot. They seem quite interested."

"They were never interested befor-" the it hit the young autobot,Someone told him his secret! but the only one who knew it was Prime,Cliffjumper and Ratchet!."I got to go Jazz later!" Bee said quickly running off to find said people to see if they happen to slip it to the twins about his crush on twins watched him go.

"What do you think?" Sideswipe asked his brother. "You like him?"

Sunstreaker was silent a moment was a kind gentle mech,always helped others and was inoccent..Why would someone like the mini bot like them?. "Yeah I do Bro he's hot but..why would he like us?" Sunny replied looking at his twin.

"I dunno," Sideswipe. "Probably gotta ask him why."

"Yeah we do after he's done running around" the golden twin replied before stretching."Good," Sideswipe said before smirking. "What do you think he's like in the berth?"

"Now that we'll have to find out later also" Sunstreaker replied smirking also neither of them noticing a certain top spy behind them."Is that so?" Jazz thought to himself."But how we find out? I doubt bee will jump into berth the moment he tells us" Sideswipe said thinking.

"I dunno...suppose we'll have to take him on a date or something," Sunstreaker suggested.

"CLIFFJUMPER! YOU'RE DEAD!" A familiar voice screamed from who knows where from the base and everyone looked up from what they were doing."What that Bumblebee?" The lambo twins asked surprised.

"Oh Bee really must be mad if he lost his cool" Jazz said with a wince surprising the front liners."Huh?" they said as Jazz smirked. "He doesn't get mad easily but when he does..."

Few second later Bumblebee was seen seething as he chased a scared Cliffjumper.

"Get back here!" the yellow mini shouted as the passed by."I didn't mean it," Cliffjumper called over his shoulder, still running.

"You said you wouldn't tell anyone!" Bee shouted as he got closer and pounced onto the other making them tumble abit before Cliffjumper was on his back staring optic to optic with the slightly younger mech."They were clueless, I just gave them a hint," he defended.

"Like what!? must've been a big hint!" Bee shouted glaring at his friend.

"It wasn't," Cliffjumper exclaimed. "I think they like you."Bee froze before sitting up in thought as Cliffjumper propt himself onto his of them noticed that afew autobots were watching."Are you serious?" he asked."Cross my spark and hope to offline I'm sure" Cliff said making a X on his chest .

"...Well I made a bad impression then" the yellow minibot said sadly.A hand fell on his shoulder and he looked up to see Sideswipe smiling at him."Actually you're more cute mad" the red mech said causing Bumblebee to blush."Can you get off me Bee before you three do a love fest?" Cliffjumper said wanting to give them privacy.

"Huh? Oh sorry," Bumblebee apologised, quickly getting up and finding himself faced by the twins."So..you like us..Why?" Sunstreaker asked bluntly.

"Uh...well...," Bumblebee mumbled, feeling embarrassed.

"well?" Sides asked knelting next to the mini bot.

"You guys...pretty hot," he lambos shared a look then looked at Bee. "You're hot also Bee" they said honestly."Really?" Bumblebee said in disbelief. "No I'm not."

"Well to us you are" sunstreaker said wraping a arm around the shorter mech made the yellow Minibot smile and blush."Thanks," he said softly."Welcome" Sideswipe said wraping around Bumblebee also.'pinch me to see if I'm dreaming because if I am I never want to wake up!' the yellow minibot thought smiling more."You wanna go somewhere more private?" Sunstreaker asked with a grin."Uh Sure" was the reply.

"Great lets go" Sideswipe grabbed Bumblebee and quickly ran out with quickly ran into Bumblebee's room,they thought it be more private the their's,and with their hacking skills they entered with ease."How you guys know my code?" Bee asked as he was set down."We know just about everyone's," Sunstreaker said smugly. "Except for Jazz, Mirage and Prime. Jazz is too good for us, Mirage could sneak up on us invisible and Prime...well, Prowl threatened us not to try and hack his."

"Not surprised" Bee said laughing alil.

"But hasn't he threatened you about his door?" Bee asked.

"We did once..couldn't sit right for two days" Sideswipe replied as his twin grimaced at the memory."Oh," Bumblebee said in understanding, he didn't need to say anything else. Prowl wasn't one for threats, he simply told you not to break a certain rule and if you did, punishment was swift."Yeah " the twins said.

"You hardly get in trouble don't you Bee?" Sunny asked.

Bumblebee shrugged."Not with the Autobots...but sometimes the Cons," he stated.

"hmm..I got a question..You ever shared a berth before?" Sunstreaker asked ,being the oh so to the point Bumblebee shook his head as a answer."No?" Sideswipe said in surprise.

"Not really" Bee stuttered shifting nervously.

The twins couldn't help feeling smug but at the same time, they didn't want to push Bee. So Sunstreaker said."Do you...wanna do this?"Bee thought for a second before nodding he's always been curious about it but no one ever asked him."We'd love to do it with you," Sideswipe assured him."Yeah what sides said" Sunny smiled before shyly gestering to the berth.

They all got then kissed earning a frown from his twin.

"What?" Sideswipe asked.

"Don't hog him" his twin had the tendacy to do that.

"Hey he's hot " Sides replied.

"I'm not gonna be tugged like a doll am I?" Bee asked hoping to end a future fight.

"No, we just have to work out how to share you," Sunstreaker stated.

"As long as it doesn't involve a tug a war I'm OK with it" Bee said with a giggle.

"Where you get that idea?" Sides asked the yellow bug confused.

"Well I was watching a TV show with Spike once and a pair of twins were fighting over a teddy and it tor right in half" was the nervous stared at him aghast before Sideswipe exclaimed. "Well, we definitely won't do that."

" good" Bee said as the twins started their sharing discusion over thier twin bond.

A sudden sound was heard from somewhere in the room."Huh?" the mini bot said in confusion.

" what was that?" The twins asked as the three mechs looked wasn't clear but after a few times it started to sound alil like 'kremzeek'.Bee's optics widened he for got about Kremzeek! After the first Kremzeek was destroyed the yellow Minibot hid the second one to save it,and as a thankyou the electric being hasn't caused any trouble...but Bumblebee never told anyone about it.

"Um," Bumblebee said nervously. "It's nothing."

" didn't sound nothing" Sideswipe said."Are you hiding something?" his yellow twin asked with narrowed optics." m-me? No nothing why?" Bee studdered.A spark of electricty shot through the air then vanished under a tarp on Bee's shelf."You sure?" Sideswipe asked, glancing around.

May 3" y-Yeah positive" the shorter mech replied eyeing the tarp. On his self.

"Come on Bee, you can tell us," persuaded yellow bug was still eyeing the tarp before getting up and walking towards the shelf his spark pounding so hard he can hear it in his audios."Okay," he said. "I'll show you."Pulling off the tarp the twins saw a orb and inside it was a electrical creature with read eye " Kremzeek!" The creature said happy to see Bumblebee."Hi," Bumblebee greeted, holding out his hand and the creature hopped onto then hopped onto the yellow bot's shoulder and snuggled his cheek purring,kremzeek missed his master.

"this is kremzeek," Bumblebee introduced. "I've been looking after him."

" isn't that the creature that caused havik in Japan and here?" Sunstreaker asked.

"No, this is the second one...but he's harmless," Bumblebee assured them.

" he is cute Sunny" sideswipe said tickling the electric's shin.

" Kremzeek" it said.

"I know," Bumblebee said with a just kept his distance not trusting Kremzeek."He won't hurt you," Bumblebee said earnestly. "He's really friendly."Rolling his optics Sunny sighed walking over and the creature jumped onto his shoulder nuzzling him with a purr.

"Ah," he said with a slight yelp, tensing as Kremzeek continued purring.

" aww he likes you Sunstreaker" bumblebee said smiling at the site.

"Uh, cool," Sunstreaker said, still uncertain." Kremzeek like like!" Kremzeek said smiling.

"He talks," Sideswipe exclaimed in surprise.

" only a few words but yeah he talks" bee said giggling at the twins' expressions." Kremzeek!" The electric creature said before jumping back onto the minibot's shoulder smiling."Good boy," Bumblebee giggled, bringing a little treat from sub space and offering it to took it and ate it in one bite."Wow, he's fast," Sideswipe said, impressed."Yup..please don't tell anyone about him" Bee asked holding his pet close ,he didn't want to have this kremzeek destroyed.

"Okay, we won't," they promised.

"Thanks guys" bee said hugging themThey hugged him back, three suddenly heard the alarm going off and knew what was going on..Decepticons were back in action."Dammit," Sunstreaker grumbled, he'd been looking forward to spending proper time with Bumblebee."well there goes that moment" Sideswipe grumbled oh he was gonna take out on cons big time."Yeah," Sunstreaker growled before saying to Bumblebee. "You'd better put Kremzeek in a safe place."

Bumblebee put Kremzeek back into the orb and put the tarp back over it before leaving with the the Autobots were assembling although Ratchet was still in the Med Bay with his Sire."What's happening?" Repo questioned worriedly."Decepticons" Ratchet replied

Repo frowned as Ratchet said. "They're probably attacking a power plant or something."

"Why would they be doing that?" Repo asked.

"For the energy to produce Energon Cubes," Ratchet explained. "See, we have the technology to produce our own, not to mention we've got an alliance with the humans. The Cons don't and since they want to renergise Cybertron and destroy us, they try to grab as much energy as possible with force."

"Now I get the picture" Repo said after letting what he just heard sink in."Not great, is it?" sighed Ratchet."Not really" the older mech replied shaking his head.

"Do you have to go with them?" he suddenly asked."I can't let them fight on their own" Ratchet replied"I...," Repo said. "Then I have to go too."

" no you just got you equilibrium chips in you need them to adjust before any type of combat" his son said sternly.

" I'm not gonna let you guys fight while I'm stuck here!" The green and black mech retorted.

Ratchet now known where he got his stubernous from."Sire, we'll be fine," he assured him. "We've been in loads of battles."

"Still I'd like to help" Repo mumbled pouting.

"I forgot you could be childish at points" the medic said dryly."Hey," Repo exclaimed as Ratchet smiled slightly."You'll join the fight next time I got to go YOU rest" The medic said joining the other autobots.

"what am I? a sparkling?" Repo didn't like this at all, he knew his sons were adults but still. They were his kids and they were going out to fight and he wasn't going with a sigh he layed back and looked at the ceiling using his arms as a pillow. "Well Repo you got free time what you gonna do?" he mumbled to himself he had a habit of talking to himself when he was bored.A sound suddenly catches his attention."Huh?" he said curiously, sitting up.

He saw a blue and white boombox on the floor near his berth.

"The pit?" he mumbled knelting down infront of it and noticed a purple symbol on it."I've seen this before," he murmured to himself before he remembered that both Shockwave and Megatron had worn was about to back away but then got tackled bye a force,and a weight on him looking up he saw a red vizored face mask wearing mech looking at him.

"Who the pit are you!?"

"Designation: Soundwave," replied the masked mech who appeared to be overlooking him. "Lack of Autobot insignia: Conclusion, Neutral."

"Yes I'm a nuetral now get the frag off me" Repo replied with a growl."Alliance with Autobots?" Soundwave questioned, not moving."So what if I do twerp?" the older mech growled.

"Then you are an enemy of the Decepticons," Soundwave stated in a dangerous tone."Bring it!" Repo said before kicking Soundwave off of him and getting into battle opponent got to his feet, examining him coolly. Repo knew he was at a slight disadvantage, he'd only just had his chips installed and this Mech before him clearly knew how to fight. And was not one to simply rush into a fight.

"OK Repo you can do this" he thought examinting the decepticon for any sign of his mask and visor, this Mech could easily hide his emotions and his body stance wasn't very revealing either. He was clearing examining Repo himself for weakness and the old Mech was worried he would indeed find he doubt he could see his energy field and Soundwave's field was white which mean nuetral..great perfect."I don't believe this," he thought to himself.

Oh he was totally screwed if he didn't think of something.

"Sugestion:Surrender now " Soundwave said.

"Not gonna happen tone drone" Repo said then smirked seeing Soundwave's feild turn red hit a nerve did he?"What's the matter?" he asked tauntingly. "Don't like that?"A growl came from the con his feild getting more red."Come on, don't be like that," Repo said in a tone meant to annoy. "Let's see a happy face."Soundwave suddenly charged which wasn't really like him.

Repo dodged and struck a pressure point behind the younger mech's neck causing him to be outcold. "Night night twerp..Well better put you in there brig..where ever that is" he mumbled scratching his head."Damn," he sighed, there was no point in dragging this not all over the place.

"Guess I'll just tie you down in the med bay," he said finally. The berths had restraints for unruly a grunt he lifted the young mech up setting him on the berth and straping him down."OK now what to do?" Repo mumbled before spotting datapads nearby "eh I can do for some reading" he added picking them up and sitting down in a chair , the young Mech started to wake up. He strained at his bindings and glared at repo."Oh you're up? great I was afraid I offlined you or something" the older mech said before looking at the door when it opened.

"Sire, we're back...holy frag, is that soundwave!?" Ratchet yelled in astonishment.

"Yeah I didn't know where your brig was so I just binded him to the Berth in here" His sire replied stretching ."Should have known Megatron would a and one of his spies," ratchet muttered as he came over. "Its usually one of the cassettes though."

"This guy was easy to take down dispite being unreadable" Repo said with a shrug.

"Easy?" Ratchet said with a dark chuckle as Soundwave continued to glare. "Trust me, he's not easy."He appraised Soundwave with a careful optic before asking. "You sick, Soundwave?"

"Negative" Soundwave answered.

"Liar" Repo said knowing the young mech was lying he felt his armor earlier it felt hot "The mech went into battle sick" he said glaring at the decepticon who was frozen in suprise."Idiot," ratchet stated, giving soundwave a light cuff? "You should know better than that."

"Hmm, armours hot," ratchet mused, this must be how his sire knew.

"Query: Why you care?" Soundwave asked before coughing."Your sick and in my med bay, that makes you a patient," ratchet stated. "Now lie still so I can figure out what's wrong with you."Soundwave stopped struggling and sighed he was tired."Is this normal?" Repo asked while ratchet examined Soundwave."Pretty much" Ratchet replied"Crazy," repo muttered, shaking his then looked at soundwave the mech somehow looked familiar to him,question is how?.

"Have we ever met?" he questioned, causing the younger Mech to look up.

"Negative"Soundwave replied before frowned, he was sure he recognised this Mech somehow. But perhaps it wasn't the bot himself but his creators?"I got to think for abit..is there a target range here?" Repo asked he always thought better doing target yes but it worked with him."Your trigger happy son lives here, of course there's a target practice," Ratchet smiled before asking. "Will you be alright here?"

"Yes I will mr worry now go thinking" Ratchet said as the older mech walked didn't know where the target range was but he was sure he'd meet other bots who could tell him. Sure enough, he met Bumblebee who looked a little dented but was otherwise unhurt.

"Hi," the Minibot greeted warmly. "How are you doing?"

"Good thanks," Repo said with a smile.

"You know where I can find the targeting range?" he asked the yellow mech who nodded."Yep, I'll show you where it is," he offered. "Ironhide likes to go there, so does Cliffjumper."

"So I've heard," Repo said ruefully.

"You OK Repo?" Bee asked worriedly."Yeah, I'm trying to work something out," Repo explained. "I captured that Soundwave guy but he seems familiar. But he says we haven't met."

"that does sound tricky" Bee said as they headed to the targeting they were walking Repo looked in his subspaces and sees he still had his weapons his energy knives and his pistol. "Huh that's surprising I still have this stuff"

"Whoa," Bumblebee said in amazement. "Looks like Shockwave didn't rob you."

"He probably checked the wrong subspace I got so many" Repo said with a chuckle as they arrived at the targeting range."Cool," Bumblebee said with a grin. "How did you catch Soundwave, he's really tough."

"Easy I hit a pressure point" the older mech said like it was stared at him in awe, he still couldn't believe walked into the room and looked around for a target that isn't being used."Perfect," he said with a smile when he saw towards it he didn't realise Ironhide and Cliffjumper walk in standing next to bee who was watching the green and Black mech pull out a knife from his subspace again and aimed it then threw hitting a bulls eye.

Repo smiled, glad his reflexes were still good."Wow," Cliffjumper exclaimed, making Repo turn.

"Like it?" he asked smiling.

"Yeah...can you teach me?" Cliffjumper asked eagerly as Ironhdie smiled proudly."Sure-Later I think I finally figured something out!" Repo said said suddenly running off to the medbay sliding to the door before walking in and over to Soundwave."Your Creators names Sonicwave and tonesound?" he asked hoping he wasn't wrong.

"Affermitive,Query: Why?" Soundwave asked.

"I knew them" the older mech was silent for a moment before saying. "True statement?"

"Honest" Repo said.

Soundwave was silent.

"How?" He asked."I knew your carrier since we were kids but she moved away at one point then out of the blue years later she comes up before you were born and asks for help from some stalker and I kept in touch with her after that" Repo explained."Stalker?" Soundwave intoned

"Yeah apparently someone was upset or obessed of being with your sire and thought your carrier was in the way, SonicWave asked for my help..lets just say no more problems from the staler ever again." the older mech explained smirking darkling at the end but it vanished after had a feeling he knew what that coughed hard he hated being sick but he wasn't one to tell his feelings..yet this mech knew his emotions.

"What's on your mind twerp?" Repo asked noticing the young mech's field turning bright blue which ment 's field suddenly darkened, indicating that he was annoyed.

"Query:How can you read me?" the blue mech asked anoyyed.

"That's my little secret" Repo said patting his head smirking before walking faced palmed his Sire had somany secrets it was not even funny."Get used to it," he said flatly, as Soundwave turned to him. "and he likes nicknames."

"Query: how you live with him?" soundwave asked.

"He's my Sire," Ratchet stated, no point in pretending since Megatron already knew. "And Ironhide's too."

"Statement: I feel bad for you" Soundwave said but flinched seeing Ratchet grab a wrench he heard stories about the autobot medic."Watch it, that's my Sire and I only just got him back," warned blue mech nodded Repo was looking through his subspaces and found a vile of teal liquid opening it then drank alil bit of it.

"Primus I hope this still works" he waited, hoping that it would indeed do its ex assassin sighed when it did his leg was bugging him it was a old wound from his first job he always carried a pain killer incase it started hurting."Damn leg," he muttered to himself. "Always giving me jip."

"You OK? whoa!" a voice said spooking the old assassin who swung his blade in reflex and looked around as a white and blue mech with yellow optics appeared crouching and glared at him.

"Rude much?" Mirage said.

"Don't sneak up on me like that," Repo scolded."Excuse me I'm a spy thankyou my job" Mirage retorted standing up."Did someone ask you to spy on me?" Repo asked putting his meds and blade into his subspace."No, I just saw you looking like something was paining you," Mirage said stiffly."Well I'm fine now I'm gonna find a alt mode" the older mech before walking off.

"Humph, definitely Ratchet and Ironhide's sire," Mirage muttered to himself as he also walked away.

Author's note: Now that's away to meet someone...What will happen next?
