Sorry for the wait again guys. Hope you all like this chapter, idea's are welcome and please read and review.
Later that day Pebbles, Ironhide and Chromia had settled down and everything seemed to be alright now. Pebbles was still upset with Optimus since it was his idea but he came by to visit her and said he was sorry and didn't mean it. Pebbles didn't know what else he could do to make it better but she just nodded her head and gave him a warm smiling, letting him know she was alright.
Red Alert and some of the other's weren't really happy about it though. They all wanted her to stay but there wasn't anything they could do. Optimus had a word with them and said not to bring it up anymore or do anything. Pebbles made it clear she didn't want to stay so that was that.
Around midday
Pebbles, Chromia and Ironhide were playing some hide and seek in the base and it was Ironhide's turn to find the two femmes. He had been looking for about ten minutes now and thought of trying a new place to look. He entered the training room and saw Warpath and Skyfire training with the moves and fighting skills.
"Hey guys. Have ya seen Chromia or Pebbles?" He asked.
"Nope sorry Hide" Skyfire said.
"We will let you know if we see them" Warppath said.
"Thanks" Ironhide said and walked out the room.
When he left Pebbles and Chromia came out of there hiding spot next to Warpath and Skyfire and smiled.
"Thanks you too" Chromia said making Pebbles giggle.
"No worries have fun" Skyfire said continuing his training with Warpath.
The femmes left the room and giggled as they ran down the hall to hide from Ironhide. As they came around the corner Ironhide came out and grabbed Chromia, lifting her up into the air making her laugh and squeal.
"Found ya two" He grinned.
"It was fun" Pebbles smiled at them.
"I'm glad you had fun sweetie" Chromia smiled picking her up.
"Come on let's get some energon" Ironhide said
Outside the base
Some of the autbot's Red Alert, Sunstreaker, Prowl and Inferno were outside the base just doing some of their work and fixing up stuff. Red Alert would not stop arguing about the sparkling not wanting to stay. He kept going on and on about she would be happier here with the autobot's. Sadly Inferno was starting to agree with him and taking his side while on the other hand Sunstreaker and Prowl ignored them and carried on with their work.
Prowl looked over to the hills from the corner of his optic and spotted something coming towards them. As he focused more he comlinked Optimus.
"Optimus Prime. Thundercracker and Skywarp are heading our way"
"I'll meet you at the front in a minute"
The com ended and TC and Skywarp came to a landing in front of them.
"Find them yet?" Prowl asked.
"We need to talk to Optimus" TC said.
"What about?" Red Alert asked crossing his arms.
"We will explain when he's with us" TC said.
"He's on his way" Prowl said.
"I want to see my daughter" Skywarp came forward.
"Follow me. I'll take you in" Prowl said turning around but was stopped by Red Alert.
"So now we are just welcoming decepticon's into our base?" He growled standing in front of the two.
"Not now Red Alert. If you want to complain talk to Optimus" Prowl said pushing him out of the way and walking in with Skywarp following him. Red Alert grumbled but didn't continue as Optimus came out with Ratchet behind him.
"Thundercracker, what brings you and Skywarp here?" Optimus asked.
"We came because Skywarp wanted to see his daughter but not only that. We spotted Brawl"
"Did you stop him?" Ratchet asked.
"We were about to but…..he's got a bigger army then we thought. We were lucky to escape before anyone of us were killed"
"So what now?" Optimus asked.
"Megatron has requested for your help. We need more fighters to stop them and we could really use your help" TC said.
"We will help" He nodded. Red Alert soon came forward.
"So first we are letting decepticon's in our base and now we are helping them?" He growled, not really happy with this.
"Were doing this for Pebbles, I'm sure you care about her as well right?" Optimus asked. His silent was all he needed for an answer and com linked most of the autobot's to prepare for battle.
Inside base
Pebbles was with Chromia, Blizzard and Ironhide in her little play area the autobot's set up for her in the rec room. There were drawings, blocks, toys and fun games for her to play with which she was more than happy with.
Pebbles at in Chromia's lap as she drew away with Chromis helping her. The two smiled and hugged each other enjoying the day very much. She wasn't mad at them anymore though it was still on her mind but it didn't worry her at the moment and just wanted to enjoy the day.
Ironhide sat by them with Blizzard next to him as he petted his head enjoying the happiness from the femmes.
Prowl then entered the room and walked over to the three smiling at them.
"Pebbles you have a visitor" He said.
"Who?" She asked looking up at him.
Skywarp entered the room and the others saw him enter. Pebbles squealed happily and ran to her father leaping into his arms and nuzzling into him.
"Hey daddy" She said wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Hey baby, miss me?" Skywarp asked kissing her helm.
"I did" She said softly kissing his cheek softly before hugging him again.
Chromia and Ironhide came over to them looking neutral. On the outside Chromia looked fine and relaxed but on the inside she was spark broken and hurt. She was happy Pebbles was happy but….well she didn't know. She just wanted to hold Pebbles again.
"How has she been?" Skywarp asked the two. He knew the two were looking after her and would know more how she was.
"She's been great. She is a sweet sparkling" Chromia smiled.
Skywarp softly smiled knowing his daughter was the sweatiest and would make the autobot's happy.
"So you've been alright?" He asked his daughter.
"I'm fine. I was a little upset before but I'm ok now" She said.
"Upset? About what?" Skywarp asked a little worried.
At that moment Optimus, Red Alert, Elita and Ratchet came into the room walking over to them.
"Did you get my com Ironhide?"
"I just did" He said.
"What's going on?" Chromia asked.
"Megatron needs our help so we are going too. Some of the autobot's will remain behind just to keep a close optic on the base and stay close to Pebbles" Optimus said.
"I will be fine Chromia. I will be back sooner than you think" He said hugging her gently.
"So you're going again?" Pebbles asked her father.
"I will be back as soon this is all over. I promise" He told her "Go on with Chromia. I will be thinking of you" He said not caring the autobot's were around listening.
"I will be thinking of you too daddy" She said before she was placed on the ground and taken out the room with Chromia. Once she was gone Skywarp looked at Optimus.
"What happen?" He frowned.
"W-what do you mean?" Optimus asked.
"She told me she was upset before. What about?" He asked again crossing his arms.
The autobot's looked at the each other not really knowing what to say or how to say it knowing he wasn't going to be pleased about it.
"She overhead something we were sharing and she got upset about it. But she is alright now and there is nothing else-" Optimus was cut off.
"What did she overhear?" Skywarp was still frowning knowing they weren't telling him something.
"Skywarp do you care about your daughter?"
"O-of course I do. I love her. She means the world to me. Where are you getting at?"
"We all have been talking and thinking about it for a long time. We thought it might be best if Pebbles stays with us. That way she can grow up as an autobot and have a bright future. We don't see her running into battle as a decepticon or hurting anyone. We want you to understand that-"
"Understand?" Skywarp hissed. He unfolded his arms and walked closer to the autobot leader.
"Are you telling me that I'm unfit to raise her? She is my daughter. Has she told you she wants to stay?" He shouted in his face.
"N-no she said she doesn't but-"
"Then drop it!" He yelled again.
"Stand down con!" Red Alert came forward shoving his gun in Skywarp's face.
"Red Alert stop there is no need for that" Optimus said.
"There is a need" He said looking at Skywarp "If you cared about your daughter so much you will want her to stay here" He said.
"What!" Skywarp shouted.
"You want her to have a bright future and a loving life right? Well here is her real home. With the decepticons all you're going to teach her is how to kill and destroy" Red Alert yelled again.
Skywarp finally snapped and grabbed Red Alert by the neck and pinned him on the wall. Red Alert was being strangled to death and couldn't move to try and stop Skywarp. The autobot's started to yell and grabbed him to let him go. Skywarp was really strong and wasn't letting go. Ironhide then punched him in the chest making him drop the autobot and stumble back and Prowl putting a hand on his shoulder to stop him.
"Think twice before you make an act like that again" Optimus warned him.
Red Alert got up off the ground and glared at Skywarp. He didn't say anything besides gripping his sore neck.
Skywarp took a deep breath before speaking.
"I love her. The other decepticon's love her. She is my daughter and once this is all over she is coming home with me. There is nothing you can do to change her mind, she wants to go home and she will when I return again. You autobot's need to understand that. Not everything you think is right. For once besides thinking for yourself think about others. What they want and not what you want. Pebbles has made it clear and if I hear anything else from you wanting her to stay you will regret it" Skywarp finished before shoving past Red Alert and walking down the hall.
Skywarp turned a corner and looked up smiling. He saw his daughter running around with Chromia and Blizzard and he walked up to them making Pebbles look up and smile.
"I've got to go now. But I will be back" He said kissing her helm gently.
"I love you daddy" Pebbles whispered to him.
"I love you too baby" He whispered back.
Skywarp looked up at Chromia and saw the soft smile on her face.
"Take care of her"
"I always do" She said picking up Pebbles.
Skywarp walked out where some of the autobot's and TC were waiting for him. It was going to be a long fight.
Later that night
All the femmes, Bumblebee, Jazz, Wheeljack and Cliffjumper stayed behind to watch the base and to be close to Pebbles. She was a little scared because no one knew what was going to happen but they tried to make her not think about with some fun games and energon sweets which were working well.
Right now they were watching a movie which everyone was enjoying. Pebbles sat in Chromia's lap holding her energon sweet and suckling it while holding her doll and Blizzard next to her. Bumblebee had looked at the weather and it looked like a storm was rolling in for the night which he knew Pebbles was afraid off but didn't say anything until later. But that changed once there was a loud crackle in the distance. Pebbles cringed a little and hugged her doll close with Blizzard next to her.
"It's alright sweetie it can't hurt you in here" Elita tried to tell her. Pebbles seemed to relax but then the power flicked off and a sudden lighting and thunder came throughout the base. Pebbles screamed and nuzzled into Chromia.
"Damn power is out" Cliffjumper mumbled.
"It's getting late anyway. We all should get some rest" Moonracer said.
"You girls go for it. We will stay up a little longer in case Optimus calls" Bumblebee said.
"Come on Pebbles I'll take you back to our room" Chromia said walking out with her friends.
"We will see you in the morning Chromia. Goodnight Pebbles" Elita, Firestar and Moonracer said.
"Goodnight" Chromia and Pebbles said walking down the hall and to their room.
Once they got there the storm was getting a little louder but the room was quiet enough and there were no windows so Pebbles couldn't see the storm which was good. But could still hear a bit of it.
"Can I sleep with you tonight?" Pebbles asked sweetly nuzzling into Chromia.
"Sure you can hun" She smiled and walked over to her berth. She missed Ironhide and she knew the others did was well, they were worried. But they knew once they wake up they will return. The thought of it made Chromia smile but soon disappeared once she thought of another thing. Once Ironhide would come Pebbles would go back to the decepticons.
She tried to understand she wasn't going to stay no matter what but it was hard knowing she wasn't going to see her again. She shook the thought out of her head and gently laid Pebbles down on the berth with a pillow and blanket for her. Blizzard jumped up and laid down at Pebbles feet feeling a little tired himself.
"You alright?" Chromia asked.
"I'm fine thank you" She smiled letting out a small yawn.
Chromia climbed into the berth and lay down next to Pebbles before wrapping her arms around her. The two were confortable and Pebbles felt save with Chromia next to her.
"If you ned anything just say sweetie" She told her.
"Thank you"
"Goodnight Pebbles" She whispered feeling her going into recharge.
Pebbles was half asleep and let out a yawn before whispering "Goodnight mummy"
Chromia froze at what she had heard. She looked down at her but saw she was already in recharge. She felt her spark beat fast and warm up at the sound of what she had said. It has been so long since she has heard that name and she was filled with joy to hear it again.
She nuzzled into Pebbles and smiled as she felt Blizzard roll over at their feet while he was in recharge also. Chromia hoped that everyone was alright and would stop Brawl and Storm.
