Meanwhile, as Detective Sherwood left the Autobot base after his failed attempt to reach out to little S4, far across town, three burly men were sitting around a table, discussing how they were going to try and find the girl that had escaped from them two years ago. They had not given up on finding her, realizing now that since they had failed to kill her, her testimony against them was more damning now that not only was she free but there was no statute of limitations on murder.
One man who sat at this table was named Daniel, and went by Dan the Hitman, as he was the one who usually carried out the action directed by the boss. Dan was 6 foot 5 and weighed 350 pounds easily, with most of it muscle. He was not one you wanted to run into in a dark alleyway as he killed first and asked questions later. Next to him, was the other crony went by the name Bones as no one knew his real name. He was tall, 7 foot 2 and nearly 400 pounds of muscle. He was just as tough as Dan the Hitman, and other than height, the only difference between Dan was that Dan was white while Bones was part Hispanic and part African American. Both were just as deadly as ever, but nothing but nothing topped their boss, a squat man who was only 5 foot 8, 350 pounds but could kill someone quicker than they could split. The boss, known simply as Doc, was a disgraced doctor who had turned to crime once his license had been revoked. Doc was part White and part African American, but all business when it came to committing crime.
The three sat around talking, wondering how they could find the little girl who had escaped their grasp. So far she had managed to escape their attempts to recapture her as well as their attempts to kill her. It was a good thing that none of them realized yet that the little girl they sought was with the Autobots, or the men would have been plotting how to capture her instead of how to find her, as their gang, known as Three Men Down on the streets, was well known for once finding a target, finding it and doing away with it. But fortunately, none of the three knew that S4 was safe and sound with the Autobots.
Back at the Autobot Headquarters, Prowl was busy trying to keep the base running, Jazz was busy watching for cons, and that left Bluestreak and S4 to spend time together. Bluestreak and S4 were learning American Sign Language and were starting to get really good at signing. S4 was rapidly picking up different ways to communicate with others and while Bluestreak and S4 were learning Sign language and how to write, the two developed their own signs, symbols, and words that only the two of them would know and understand. Bluestreak was amazed at how fast little S4 was learning to sign and write, as the bots did not realize just how fast human children could learn things.
While going about his duties, Jazz felt slightly under the weather. And as soon as his shift was over, Jazz went to go see Ratchet to see what was causing the condition. After fainting and passing out in the med bay from the news, Jazz left Ratchet's med bay, rubbing his abdomen, thinking i we are going to have another one? /i. Jazz was worried yet excited at the same time. Jazz knew Bluestreak and Prowl would understand, but he was worried about little S4's reaction. Even so, all Jazz could do was hope that S4 would be ok with having another member of the family.
Meanwhile, at the police station, Detective Sherwood was trying his hardest to solve this case. He had quite a bit of evidence, but was no closer to arresting those responsible for this horrendous act, and with S4 unable to talk, as well as afraid to interact with men, Detective Sherwood was not sure how he was going to get the information he needed. And then came a revelation, as there was a brand new Detective, a rookie, who was a female that might be able to reach out and talk to little S4. Her name was Detective Shriver, and she was a little spitfire as well as could be very intense, but hopefully she would be able to reach the little girl. And with hope that this was closer to solving the case, Detective Sherwood went to talk to the rookie, Detective Shriver.
And at the Autobot base, Jazz was making his way back to his and his family's quarters. Prowl was already home, as his shift had ended several hours ago, and Jazz saw little S4's eyes sparkle with pure joy as Bluestreak and Prowl were playing "tickle monster" with S4, and laughter filled the room. And it was an excited little S4 that first saw the saboteur enter the room. Jazz was hopeful that what he had to say would not go over wrong.
"Hey Jazz" stated Prowl, "you are running a little late, something keep you?"
"Yeah" replied Jazz, "I was feeling strange and so I stopped by the med bay. And the good news is that nothing is wrong."
"Jazz," stated Bluestreak, "tell the rest, as it looks like you are hiding more news."
Jazz took a huge "breath" in and then let the news fly, " well, Ratchet told me that we are expecting twin sparklings."
Bluestreak and Prowl were excited, but S4 was confused, as she had no idea what sparklings were, and that was when Prowl decided to explain, "S4, you know how when a man and a woman get together and create a baby? ( at which S4 nodded) well, sparklings are little transformers" stated Prowl, hoping that S4 understood. S4, once she processed, understood what sparklings were, but she had one other question that she scribbled out.
"But how can you and Jazz have sparklings, as you are both male?" asked S4 in her better writing.
"Because, we are neither female nor male, we really have no gender so either can carry sparklings, though only mechs have a plug to donate the material" replied Jazz, which seemed to satisfy S4, and the little girl ran up excitedly and hugged Jazz, much to Jazz's relief, as he was not sure she would accept it, but she had. And now that they all knew the family was going to grow, they were all very happy about it, even S4, who did not know that soon she would get another visitor soon.
Detective Shriver was glad to help with the case, as she remembered reading about the case in the papers three years ago about a small family being abducted. Detective Sherwood shared what he had gathered with Detective Shriver. What neither knew was that the Three Men Down gang were getting closer and closer to finding their missing quarry.
