NOTE: Hey guys, I'm so sorry for the wait. School started and it's really started to get on my nerves. Anyways, now that I have some time on me I'll really try to catch up on things. I do not own transformers, except Blackbird, he's mine.

.o

It wasn't until later when Prowl, Bulkhead, Sari and Ratchet came back from patrol. Ratchet didn't pay attention the whole afternoon, instead he felt uneasy the whole time. After the incident with the youngling, he had to make Prime tell him the truth about his creators or else Bumblebee would become suspicious. What worried him now is if Prime told the kid and how he took it.

The first thing the medic noticed was that both Bumblebee and Optimus were gone and it was utterly quiet.

"Geez, where is anyone," Sari asked. Ratchet ignored the human girl and decided that Optimus could be in his quarters and that the bot's needed to have a talk.

Ratchet walked down the hall until he was in front of Prime's office. "Kid, you in here?" the medic asked while knocking. There wasn't an answer at first but the medic was sure he was in there. Ratchet shook his head before inviting himself in a dimly lit room with Optimus slouched on his chair holding a white and yellow blanket. "I told him," the prime said.

"He didn't take it well did he?"

Optimus didn't answer and tried to move away from the medic. It was obvious that he was suffering from depression and guilt and that he didn't want to talk now. That wasn't going to stop the medic though. "You had to tell him one day, he can't live out his life not knowing."

"I never should have agreed to give him up," Optimus replied. "All Elita and I want was a family and now I don't think that could happen. I thought she was gone and only Bumblebee was my family now. When Blackbird walked away from him, I thought that I could no longer give him the life he needed, that I could never do the things he would love today. I missed his early stellar cycles, his first modes, and I never had a change to see him again. I wanted to have him again when Blackbird died but Ultra Magnus said that I couldn't because of my age. I just wanted Bumblebee back, and nothing more."

As Optimus talked about his guilt, he clutched the blanket tighter and desperately tried not to cry in front of Ratchet. Ratchet, already sitting on one of Prime's chairs, listened. "Did I make the right choice?" Optimus asked turning slowly until he faced the medic. Ratchet eyed the prime and noticed that he was trembling and shook his head.

"I can't answer that for you Prime. I was there when the kid was born and I was upset when I heard what Magnus said about you not allowed to take care of him. I'm sure the kid would understand why, he always looked up to you and he didn't have an explanation why he did." Ratchet noticed that Optimus slouched back on the seat and the medic insides started to churn from an old memory.

"I had a son too," the medic replied bowing his head slightly.

"After my sparkmate went off line, I'd promised that I would take care of him. When he reached his youngling years, I had to leave him for the war and I left him to be a medic bot. He didn't like it at first, saying that I didn't want him and that the war was more important to me."

Ratchet started to feel uncomfortable from the memory of the yelling and arguing many stellar cycles ago. He had become so attached to him and he thought he was bored of him when the war started and that he didn't need him anymore. "We didn't see each other for some time but we met again on the battlefield and the med bay. He asked if we could meet alone and late at night in the med bay, the kid started bursting into tears saying that he was sorry and that practically broke my spark that he understood now what I had to do. I guess the training to be a medic made him think that I had to do was to protect him, he started to understand more since then."

Optimus listened to every word the medic was saying to him; Ratchet never told him that he had a son too. "Who is your son?"

"Ever heard of Red Alert?"

How couldn't he? Next to Ratchet, Red Alert is the best medic on Cybertron and he fought with the second Optimus Prime, his father. "He's just like me now, a highly skilled medic on Cybertron."

Like he just had high-grade energon was filling him up right now, the prime was starting to get the message Ratchet was telling him now. He too had a son he loved, and he had to give him up and that he thought that he didn't need him anymore. He mourned for stellar cycles and thought if he did the right choice to do so.

Placing the blanket inside his chest compartment, Optimus stood up and walked to the door. "I'm going to find Bumblebee."

.o

Bumblebee didn't know how he felt. He was angry because Optimus and Blackbird had lied to him since he was a sparkling, but at the same time he was upset. Upset that he couldn't remember anything until now. "Optimus doesn't even look like me at all," the youngling mumbled.

Finally the young bot found a tunnel and transformed and rested his back against the wall, no cars seemed to come here anymore so he didn't have to worry about someone seeing him. Bringing his knees to his chassis, Bumblebee rested his head and started crying.

'I'm never wanted am I', Bumblebee thought to himself. First his so called creator Optimus decided to get rid of him and he was homeless in the academy after Blackbird was killed and now no one seemed to care about him anymore. Only Blackbird ever cared about him, he truly love him and cared for him and if the slagging Decepticon didn't kill him maybe bad things wouldn't be happing to him.

Something caught the corner of his optics and stared at it blankly. It was small but it with the familiar glow coming from it didn't take hard to figure out what it was. "A fragment?"

The youngling crawled to the stone and picked it up gently as if it might break in front of him. "It is an All Spark fragment." It was small about the size of his thumb and it glowed steadily. Without thinking, the youngling placed the fragment in his storage compartment in his chassis and sat there with his palms and knees on the dirt ground, sobbing quietly.

He didn't know how long he stayed there but the sound of thruster caught his attention and soon followed by missiles firing at him. "Oh look, it's vat yellow Autobot, ahahahaa!!"

"Give us the All Spark fragment Autoscum!"

Bumblebee jumped at the all to familiar voices and activated his stingers and fired blankly at the approaching jets. He managed to hit Blitzwing causing the triple changer crashing to the ground before transforming. "You vill pay for vat Autoscum!" hothead yelled at him before firing at him.

"Leave me alone, I'm not in the mood right now Blitzbrain!" Bumblebee yelled. Before he could do anything else, a hard blow hit him in the head knocking him to the ground with a dull thunk noise repeating in his head. He could see anymore, but he could hear laughter and himself being lifted of the ground until finally falling into unconsciousness.

Elsewhere, four pairs of ruby red eyes were hiding in the trees, watching the fight, and the defeated being carried away.


What's going to happen next? Again I'm so sorry if this took a while, I'll try to finish this soon enough in my free time from school. The Red Alert Ratchet was telling about earlier was the medic from the Unicron Trilogy, I made them father and son, along with the Optimus Prime from the Unicron Trilogy and the Optimus Prime from animated. Leave good comments, please.
