"Better?" She asked and sideswipe snorted in laughter.
"Well if you would stop hitting me in the faceplates with the dummies heads then yes better." Sunstreaker said and she smiled.
"Too fun not sorry sunny." She said and he rolled his eyes.
"Hey Silver ratchet wants you in the med bay. Something about a check up." Will said and she smiled.
"Thanks will." She said and sheathed her swords.
"Same time tomorrow Sunnyside up?" She asked the twins who both groaned at their new nickname.
"Yes same time tomorrow." Sunshine said and Silverspark left the room laughing as she went. She stopped by Jazz's office and grabbed her daughter then headed towards the med bay. She walked past prime's office just as he walked out almost running into him.
"Oh oops. Sorry Optimus." She said sending him a smile her spark squeezing in slight pain though she hid it well.
"Its fine have no worries Silverspark. Are you heading to the med bay." he asked and she nodded.
"Yes you're welcome to join me if you like." She said and he nodded walking with her to the med bay.
"So what is taking you to the med bay?" She asked and he looked over towards her.
"Checkup. What about you." He asked and she looked over at him then forward.
"Electra and I are up for our own checkup dad never got to finish hers." Silverspark said and he nodded. After an awkward silence they finally made it to the med bay only to hear yelling and a few crashes. She frowned and looked over at Optimus they both walked in only for Silverspark to deflect a wrench from hitting Electra who started crying. She bounced her slightly holding her close as she glared at her father who had thrown it at the two twins who had just ran out the door.
"Scrap is she alright." he runs over and Silverspark growled holding her close to her chest. She had calmed her down enough that she stopped crying but she was shaking still pretty scared.
"It was deflected in time. Electra is unharmed." Optimus said and the sparkling reached for him. He was slightly shocked but Silverspark handed her over to him as her father started her checkup. Moments later and she was finished and took a now sleeping Sparkling from optimus she never knew how good optimus was with sparkling's till that moment. She smiled at him.
"Thank you Optimus." She said with a smile and left the med bay and walked to the main room where she promised bee he could see his little sister again.
~time skip~
It had been almost three months since the wrench incident and her little sparkling had grown a lot. Speak of the devil.
"Momma!" She looked over at Electra with a smile as she waddled into her office.
"Hello dear weren't you supposed to be with Optimus." She said and Electra giggled.
"Gampa said bweak so we come see momma." She said and Silverspark laughed softly and picked her up.
"Is that so?" She said as she heard a baritone like chuckle.
"It is." Optimus said and she smiled at him.
"Afternoon Optimus." He smiled at her.
"Would you like to come with me for some energon?" He asked with an almost nervous look about him and she nodded.
"That would be wonderful." She said and he offered his arm and she took it as they both walked from her office towards the Autobot's rec room.
"So how has your morning been?" Optimus asked as he brought over three cups of energon on with a small straw for Electra.
"It's gone well. Tons of paperwork but none the less well. And yours?" She asked.
"It is normal. A few meetings some paperwork and a mission to Texas." He said and she nodded helping Electra with her cup before taking a drink of her own energon. Optimus watched her admiring how great of a mother she is despite her youth. He couldn't help but be proud that she is the femme he fell for.
"I heard from a friend that you like music." Optimus said trying to start a conversation.
"Indeed I do. I use to compose my own music actually. Maybe I will play a song or two for you sometime." She said blushing slightly. A few of the Autobot's noticed this and gave each other knowing looks.
"That would be great." He said blushing himself which is something he has never exactly done before.
"Daddy!" Electra squealed at him causing them both to laugh. Electra had taken to calling optimus her father. She couldn't have picked a better mech.
"Yes Electra." He asked and she giggled.
"You bush daddy." His blush deepened causing Silverspark to laugh.
"Oh quit teasing your father Ellie dear." She said causing the sparkling to giggle. What both Optimus and Silverspark didn't know was that their sparkling had a plan to get them together. Of course it was Jazz and the terror twins that came up with it they just involved the child who loved their leaders.
"Optimus Silverspark you are needed in the main room." They heard over the intercom and both groaned.
"Great." She mumbled then chugged down her energon grabbing her daughter's cup and her daughter then followed optimus to the main room where Galloway waited.
"What did I say about that thing being in the main room? Its loud and obnoxious get rid of it." He said causing both Optimus and Silverspark to growl at him.
"You do not speak of my daughter that way for I could say the same about you director Galloway." Silverspark growled at him and he back away in fear. Optimus laid a hand upon her shoulder calming her and she began to help her daughter drink her energon yet again. She heard a few snickers around the room and smirked. She looked up at the screen to find morshower smirking slightly.
"Nicely done Major." He said and she shook her head and laughed looking over at Optimus and he nodded taking Electra from her and she shifted to her human form and optimus set her next to will on the cat walk.
"Nice to see you again sir. How's the wife and kids." She asked and he chuckled.
"They are fine but I did not call for social there was a complaint about a decepticon around Greenland." He said and she frowned.
"I see anything that is needed to know." She asked seriously and he nodded.
"Also there seems to be an autobot in the area as well so you will be needed on this mission." He said and she frowned. She hasn't been even a day away from her daughter since they build this group.
"A...are you sure sir I...uh...I mean I haven't been away..." He nodded understanding instantly.
"You haven't been away from your child. I know the feeling Amelia. Trust me I do but there are times you must leave. You won't be leaving forever it will only be for a few days. She will be fine. Leave her with someone you trust." He said and her frown deepened. The only three she trusted with her daughter was optimus, jazz, and ratchet and they would all be needed on this mission. Her worry deepened and she nodded.
"Very well." She said and he could see the worry on her face.
"She will be fine major." He said and she nodded not fully believing that. She stepped off the cat walk and shifted to her bipedal mode and walked over gently taking Electra from optimus holding her close to her chest.
"Momma otay." she asked and Silverspark nodded.
"Momma's fine honey. Momma's fine." She said though knew her daughter felt her worry through their bond.
"Momma no worry." She said hugging her. Silverspark couldn't help but hug her back tear filling her eyes. She loved her to death and doubted she could leave her for long. Optimus gave her a worried look. He knew how much she hated not being near her daughter for long he knew she would be distracted throughout this mission. He didn't like seeing her like this at all.
"We can leave her with Prowl she will be fine with him." He said and she nodded looking down at her daughter who was laughing at the faces sideswipe was making at her.
"I do hope so." She said softly.
~0~0~
Hours later and they were ready to leave.
"Okay so she needs a nap at least once and fed at least three to four times a day. She will need to be bathed of course and she should be in bed by nine." She said giving her daughter a worried look.
"She will be fine Silverspark you know I will protect her with my life." Prowl said and she gave him a nervous smile.
"I know prowl." She said and he chuckled.
"Go you are needed silver." She frowned and hugged her daughter again causing her to frown.
"Momma no go." She said with tears in her eyes.
"I will be back baby I promise then we can play whatever game you like. I love you." She said and Electra nodded.
"Love you momma." She said just as silver pulled into the plane Electra started crying.
"Momma!" it took all Silverspark had not to say screw it and drive off that plane to her daughter.
"She will be fine Silverspark." Optimus had reminded her multiple times sensing her worry. She frowned shifting to her human form and started literally pacing back and forth.
"How do you know she could be running around the base with prowl passed out in his office because the damn terror twins. Or worse she could be lost in the base and..." She was interrupted by Optimus's holoform grabbing her shoulders stopping her pacing.
"She will be fine. I called prowl a few moments ago she is napping. Take a breath calm yourself. We are going to need you to keep your processor for this mission Silverspark." He said and she nodded closing her eyes and taking a breather. She felt herself slowly calm and opened her eyes giving him a small smile.
"Better." he asked and she nodded.
"Thank you." She said softly and he smiled back at her.
"You're quite welcome." He said looking into her eyes for something and whatever it was he must have found it because he started to lean in. Silverspark was too lost in his bright blue eyes to notice such a thing till one of the soldiers brought them both out of the trance by yelling about their landing.
"Umm we should." She said and he nodded.
"Right." Optimus disengaged his holoform and prepared to leave the plane. Once they landed Silverspark shifted back to her bipedal mode, then her alt-mode as they all drove off the plane. A few hours into their drive Silverspark sensed a spark signature nearby surrounded by at least two others.
"Half a mile turn right onto the dirty road and follow that prime. That's where the signal is. There are two others as well be prepared." She said.
"Noted." He returned over the com and they continued their drive following her directions only she didn't catch the other five till it was too late.
"Prime five more were surrounded." She said just as they jumped out she quickly transformed dodging one of them only to be shot in the shoulder by another. She fell to the ground but quickly got up and began fighting the best she could luckily the autobot that had landed near by decided to join them. He was a slight blur but soon enough the cons were taken care of.
"There were six cons I only count five...where's the sixth." She asked as she stood up. She looked up and heard cannon fire and gasped pushing ratchet out of the way taking the hit as Ironhide, the mystery mech, and jazz went after the con.
~momma! ~ -Electra
She heard her sparkling over the bond and fought to stay awake for her.
"Silverspark. Listen you need to stay awake alright. If not for me then for your daughter." She heard a voice say and looked over to see it was ratchet talking to her. She sent him a small smile then felt someone grab her hand and looked over to find it was optimus.
"Stay awake silver." He said and she could just hear the fear in his voice. She could feel herself slipping away she wanted to fight. She wanted to live for her daughter, for optimus. But she was weakening quickly. She only had enough energy to send her love to her daughter and say three words to optimus before she felt emergency stasis take over.
"I love you." She whispered hoping he heard as her vision went black.
