Sorry for the wait guys been busy and with my broken arm I'm making slow progress. Thank you to those who reviewed means a lot to me. Once again I wasn't to sure about this chapter and I'm running out of ideas so hoping people will help me out or I might come up with idea's soon. Hope you all like and please read and review.
The autobot's have been looking for Pebbles for hours around there base. They were starting to think she wasn't at the base anymore but they kept looking still, not wanting to think for the worst.
"Pebbles!" Blaster called out the hall hoping she would hear maybe.
"Any luck?" Red Alert asked as he came around the corner.
"No" Blaster sighed. He was starting to worry.
Jazz came around then looking at the two.
"Hear anything?" He asked.
"No" The two said.
Jazz sighed before frowning at Red Alert.
"What the frag were you all thinking?"
Red Alert stared at him confused.
"W-what do you mean?"
"Why can't anyone here get it through there fragging heads! She doesn't want to stay!" Jazz yelled at him.
"Hey!" Red Alert frowned "It was Optimus's idea and why not? She is a sweet sparkling and she has to stay here to have a bright future. She doesn't have any with decepticon's" He yelled back.
"How do you know that?" Jazz started to push him.
"Oh so you're on the decepticon's side now? You traitor!" Red Alert shouted
"H-hey come on let's just find Pebbles" Blaster said trying to break up the two.
They only glared at each other before going their separate ways. Jazz sighed as he walked down the hall before seeing Blizzard coming towards him sniffing the floor trying to pick up Pebbles.
"Hey boy" He smiled kneeling down at the dog. Blizzard came up to him and nuzzled into his hand before looking back up at him.
"Come on boy, let's find Pebbles" He said standing up and started to follow the dog down the hall.
Blizzard knew what he was doing and was doing his best to find the sparkling. The two then came up to a door and Blizzard started to scratch the front of it. Jazz saw it was a spear room with only junk in and looked back down at Blizzard.
"Is she in there boy?" He asked.
Blizzard whimpered a little and wagged his tail letting him know he was sure. Jazz opened the door and Blizzard bolted into the room. It was quiet a large room filled with old energon, broken objects and dust.
Jazz followed Blizzard around the room until Blizzard stopped at a corner with a large hole in the wall. Jazz slowly came around and smiled as he saw Pebbles sitting in the hole and giggled softly when Blizzard licked her face.
"Hey sweetie" Jazz smiled.
Pebbles looked up at him and looked away, holding Blizzard close to her. Jazz walked over and sat down next to her looking at the dried tears on her face.
"Everyone's worried about you" Jazz said.
"So?" Pebbles said not looking at him.
"So everyone will be happy to know you're alright. Come on sweetie, we can go out and Ironhide and Chromia can take you back to their quarters and you can get some sleep" Jazz said.
"I hate them" She said.
"Hate is a strong word. You don't hate them your just disappointed in them"
"It's just not them it's everyone" She said looking up at him.
"Even me?"
Pebbles stared at him for a long moment before looking away and sighing.
"Listen honey. Everyone loves you and yes it's true we all want you to stay even me. But I understand Skywarp is your father and you love him deeply and everyone here needs to understand that as well" Jazz smiled and gently lifted her chin up to face him.
"I understand sweetie. I understand you will be going and I understand you want to be back with your father and the other decepticons and everyone here needs to know that. I'm sorry for what you heard, I swear I didn't know about it and I'm sure Skyfire and some of the other's didn't know either. It wasn't Ironhide's or Chromia's fault either. They love you very much and didn't mean it"
"I-I know they do….but I don't want to go back to them" Pebbles softly said.
"What if you stay with me tonight?" Jazz said.
"W-with you?"
"Yeah. Then tomorrow the three of you can have a talk when it's daylight and not so late" Jazz smiled hoping she would accept it.
"I-I don't know"
Pebbles thought for a moment, not really sure or knowing. Before she knew it Jazz had picked her up gently. She whimpered a little and struggled but stopped once Jazz made soft hushing noises and rubbed her back and head gently in his arms.
"It's ok baby. Come on, we will let everyone know you're alright and then I will take you back to my room for the night" Jazz said as he walked out of the dirty room with Blizzard following behind him.
Jazz was happy she was alright and safe now. He was sure everyone would be happy as well but Ironhide and Chromia weren't going to be happy when she stays the night with him. He knew they were hoping to have her back in there room and everything will be alright. But it was only for one night so it should be alright.
As Jazz entered the rec room he saw Optimus, Ironhide, Chromia and some of the other's worried and trying to think of something. Chromia then turned to look at Jazz and sighed in relief as she saw Pebbles.
"Oh thank Primus" She said as she came up to him. The other's smiled and came up as well to him.
"Where was she?" Optimus asked.
"She was hiding in the old storage room. Blizzard mostly found her then me, I was just following" Jazz said.
"Well were all glad she is alright" Optimus smiled behind his mask.
Chromia smiled and came closer to hold Pebbles but Jazz spoke.
"Chromia don't take this the wrong way but I think its best she stays with me tonight" Jazz said.
He saw the confused look on Chromia, and not just her it was everyone.
"W-what do you mean?" She asked.
"Right now she is upset with everyone and took me a bit to get her to come with me. It's only for tonight" Jazz said.
"So she's not upset with you?" Red Alert frowned.
"She's upset with everyone if you were listening" Jazz said back. Optimus raised his hand.
"I don't want any arguments. Very well Jazz, she will stay with you for the night" He said.
Jazz nodded his head and looked back at Chromia. It almost looked like she was going to cry.
"I'll bring her to the rec room in the morning. It's late she just needs some recharge" Jazz said.
She was only silent but nodded her head and walked slowly back to Ironhide.
Jazz gave them a soft smile before turning and walking out the room. Pebbles couldn't help but look up at Chromia and Ironhide. She saw them smile at her letting her know they still cared but Pebbles was too upset and looked away, making Chromia sob softly. Blizzard followed Jazz out of the room wanting to be close to Pebbles tonight.
Once Jazz entered his quarters Pebbles hugged him around the neck and looked up around the room.
"T-this is your room?" She asked.
"It sure is" Jazz said as he placed Pebbles on the berth letting her have a look around. Pebbles smiled as she saw all the different colors and all of the music posters, CD's and hearing the soft beating music coming from the stereo.
"It's beautiful" She said.
"Why thank you. I have a strong thing for music and when I heard all of the human's music I couldn't help it" Jazz smiled as he kneeled in from of her.
"Ironhide and Chromia still care about you. They love you as well but you can't hate them forever" Jazz said.
"I-I know. I want too but…." Pebbles didn't know what to say.
"It's alright sweetie. I'm sure you will be alright tomorrow, just have a talk with them and let them know how you feel and what you want. They will be happy both ways and will still care for you no matter what" Jazz smiled grabbing a cloth and wiping her face to get rid of the dried tears.
"T-thank you" Pebbles sniffed a little smiling softly at him.
Jazz smiled back before standing and getting some energon and bringing it over to Pebbles letting her have a drink before she goes to bed.
"There we go baby" Jazz said as he watched her drink the energon.
"So have you heard much from your father? Through your bond or any messages from him?"
"He sends me a message every night, letting me know he's alright. He sent one to me just before but they still haven't found Brawl or anyone" Pebbles said lowing her head feeling a little scared.
"Don't worry girl nothing can get you in here. Your father and the other deceptcion's will find them and stop them for good' Jazz said.
Pebbles nodded her head before letting out a soft yawn and smiled as Blizzard jumped up on the berth next to her.
"I think it's time to get some sleep. I only have the one berth so you don't mind sharing do you?" Jazz asked.
"Not at all" Pebbles said as Jazz help her lay down with a few pillows and blanket for her before he came up next to her with Blizzard on the other side.
"You need anything else?" Jazz asked.
"No thank you" She said nuzzling into him and feeling the warmth from Blizzard and Jazz.
"You sleep well sweetie" Jazz said rubbing her head softly.
"Goodnight" She whispered softly before falling into recharge.
Next Morning
Jazz carried Pebbles down the hall and to the rec room where they were going to hang out until Ironhide and Chromia came. Pebbles didn't have that good of sleep since it was a whole different berth again. She did miss Ironhide and Chromia for the night and she didn't know if she should forgive them or not. She just had to wait and see. She happily drank the energon she held while Jazz carried her. Blizzard followed not far behind and barked happily up at the two making them smile.
As they entered the rec room Jazz saw Skyfire and Blaster at the table drinking there morning energon before getting to work. They saw the two enter the room and waved at them.
"Morning" Blaster said.
"Hey guys" Jazz said as he came closer. Jazz placed Pebbles on the table in front of the two and Pebbles looked up at them, but first looked at Skyfire.
"I'm sorry I yelled at you yesterday" She said.
"Hey there is nothing to be sorry about" Skyfire smiled stroking her cheek gently.
"You were just upset and heard something that should have not been said at all" Blaster said.
The three understood she had to be with her father as she grew up and she loved him deeply. Some of the other's had to understand that as well like Red Alert. He was being a real aft about this but there was only one of him so it didn't matter.
"Did you sleep well?" Blaster asked.
"I did thanks" She smiled.
"Ironhide and Chromia will be here soon" Skyfire started "I set up some blocks and colours for you over there until they get here" He smiled at her.
Pebbles smiled happily before Jazz picked her up and onto the ground. The three watched as she ran over to the small table and started to colour.
"I've got some work to do this morning. I wish I could hang out but better to get my work done before I slack off" Blaster chuckled.
"Same. We will be back around. You will be alright Jazz?" Skyfire asked.
"No worries. See ya around guys" Jazz waved as he sat at the table drinking his energon and watched Pebbles.
About twenty minutes later Ironhide and Chromia entered the room and over to Jazz. Chromia held the doll in her arms wanting to give it back to Pebbles but first they had to have a talk about…..well everything.
Jazz turned his head and smiled as he saw the two coming over.
"Hey" Ironhide whispered, not wanting Pebbles to hear them yet.
"How is she?" Chromia asked.
"She's alright. Though you might be talking for a little while, she is still a bit upset" Jazz said.
"Thank you Jazz. We should be alright" Ironhide said.
Jazz nodded his head and walked out the room to leave the three together. Blizzard didn't leave though and just laid next to Pebbles as she drew.
Chromia was the first to sit next to Pebbles and she turned her head to see Chromia smile at her. Her face of neutral though. She stopped what she was doing and saw Ironhide come over next to Chromia and the two sat down smiling at her. Pebbles didn't know what to do.
"Hey Pebbles" Chromia smiled.
Pebbles was silent for a moment but knew she couldn't be rude to them and had to say something.
"H-hello" She softly said.
"Here" She said showing her the doll. Pebbles didn't know what to do. Should she take it?
She soon slowly reached her arms out and took the doll from her before nuzzling her head into it. She missed the doll.
"How are ya this morning?" Ironhide asked.
"F-fine" She said not looking at them.
The two sighed before Chromia looked at what Pebbles was drawing and smiled.
"Is this us?" She asked.
Pebbles nodded her head looking at the drawing.
"It's beautiful" Chromia said.
"Thank you" Pebbles said looking up at the two finally.
"Sweet spark we need to talk about yesterday" Ironhide spoke. Pebbles sighed before speaking. She had to tell them how she felt.
"I'm not going to lie" Pebbles said looking at them "I really like it here"
Ironhide and Chromia looked at each other before looking back at her, almost looking pleased.
"I like everyone and I really appreciate you two looking after me. You two have been so nice and treated me so well" Pebbles said.
"But?" Chromia spoke.
Pebbles hung her helm "I miss my daddy. I miss all the decepticon's and I miss my home. I like it here but I know I have to choose and I would choose my daddy over anything" She said looking at them.
"We understand. You love your father and you miss everyone. We understand" Ironhide said.
"So you don't want to stay?" Chromia asked looking sad. Pebbles didn't know what to say. She couldn't lie and she had to tell them how she felt.
"I-I'm sorry. I don't" She said making the two understand. That was it. There was nothing anyone could do to get her to stay. She was going back to her father once he comes back and that will be the last time probably all the autobot's will see the sparkling again.
"I'm sorry I yelled at you two yesterday" She said.
"Oh sweetie there is nothing to be sorry about. We are the ones that should be sorry" Chromia said.
"She's right. Were sorry that ya heard that, we didn't mean for it to happen" Ironhide said.
"We love you very much and always will" Chromia smiled.
Pebbles finally smiled and nodded her head, holding her tears in a Chromia gently picked her up and rested her on her chest humming softly. Pebbles nuzzled into her and wrapped her arms around her neck not wanting to let go and just feel the femme soft touch from her.
"So were all good now?" Ironhide asked.
"W-were all good" Pebbles said.
"Optimus gave us the morning off so we can hang out here if you like and you can continue with your drawings" Chromia said.
Pebbles nodded her head and was placed on the ground again and she went back to her drawing. Chromia sat right next to her and kissed her helm gently, watching her finish the drawing of the three of them. Ironhide sat next to Blizzard and petted his head, smiling as the femmes were close again and he was proud of it.
There we go she forgives them and she has made it clear she doesn't want to stay. But what is Red Alert going to say? Find out next chapter. Maybe another 3 or 4 chapters before this story comes to an end but not sure yet I will see how it goes. Please review and thank you for reading.
