Raven remained out of it, while Starscream sat vigilantly at her side, waiting for when she would wake. Starscream continued sending pulses of love and received some in return. So far it had been the only communication between his and his sparkmate since the whole thing with Megatron had happened. Even Hook was starting to worry, as he had never in all his years see Megatron be so brutal to a femme bot. Hook honored Starscream's wishes to make sure that Megatron came nowhere near Raven the few times Starscream had to leave to either get energon or stretch his wings in the clear blue skies.
And after a couple days, Raven started coming back online. Her optics were still dulled and her armor was still dull in color, indicating that Raven was still fighting the emotions that the rape had caused her. Starscream sat right next to her and was speaking softly to hear when she woke. Raven's first reaction was knee-jerk and she quickly screamed and tried to shy away from everything and everyone. Starscream was worried, especially since Raven was carrying sparklings. But Hook, knowing that both Raven and the unsparked sparklings were in danger soon was able to shoot a tranquilizer into Raven, which instantly put her back to sleep.
"Why did she do that" asked Starscream, concerned as he continued to rub Raven's energon stained faced.
"It was a reaction to what had happened to her. She probably has a little Post Traumatic Stress from the rape. She was lucky though, her pregnancy with your seekerlings probably saved her life" answered Hook.
"What do you mean?" asked Starscream, worried even more about his sparkmate.
"Well, a forced pregnancy causes all kinds of issues and often ends with the femme barely clinging to life, especially when their body is not ready for interfacing. If Megatron had impregnated her, he might have killed her. But since she was already pregnant, her spark refused to merge with his, saving her life" responded Hook.
Starscream was stunned to realize not only that her pregnancy had saved her but that Megatron had almost killed her. Now Starscream was pissed beyond belief, and he kept those feelings away from his sparkmate, as he did not want Raven worrying about him on top of everything else she was already trying to fight. And so, with much hesitancy, Starscream left to go talk to Megatron one on one.
Starscream soon found Megatron sitting in the throne room, smirking for some unknown reason. This infuriated Starscream to no end. And so, approaching Megatron carefully, Starscream marched in, furious at what had happened, but after thinking about his sparklings that were yet to come, Starscream backed down at this time, for he wanted to make sure his family was safe before he approached the tyrant.
While Starscream was out briefly, Raven came back around. She was a little worried when she did not see Starscream next to her, but Hook reassured her that she was safe, Starscream was safe, and that the sparklings were safe. Raven was confused.
"What do you mean sparklings, Starscream and I have no sparklings" replied Raven, worried that Megatron had impregnated her during her rape.
"Raven, settle down or you will harm the developing sparklings. And no, they are not from Megatron either. They are yours from Starscream. You are about two months along. Those little sparklings saved your life" replied Hook.
Raven was floored, as what Hook said hit her like a ton of steel. But before she could faint from the news, Starscream came in, and seeing that she was awake, ran up to hold her and hug her tightly, though not too tightly due to her carrying sparklings.
"Raven, my sweet spark, you are finally awake and have come back to me" said Starscream, a little louder than he meant to.
"Yes, Star, and I can't believe that we are going to have sparklings" replied Raven, not realizing that Starscream already knew , "as we never even talked about having sparklings."
"I know, but I am excited that we are going to have sparklings, my sweet spark. In fact, Hook told me that they are all going to be mech seekerlings" replied Starscream, which resulted in Raven giving a strange look to Hook.
"I told him while you were out, as he was concerned the rape be Megatron might have impregnated you. And so when I found that you were pregnant, but not with Megatron's sparklings, but his, I had to tell him first, as you were still out of it" stated Hook, matter-of-factly.
Raven's look softened to a smile when she realized all that had happened to keep her safe. Raven was soon discharged from the med bay, and Starscream escorted her back to their shared room, making sure that no one would be able to get in.
Once back in the safety of the quarters, Starscream and Raven talked. They talked about the future of their little family. Raven was scared, as she knew if Megatron did what he did to her, what would he do to the little ones she was going to give birth to, especially when he found out the little ones were the seeker's brood and not the tyrant's brood. And with heavy spark, Starscream did the only thing he could think of, he sent Raven to the Autobots.
Raven was reluctant to go, as she was worried about her sparkmate, but when Starscream reassured her that he would follow her soon so that they could be a happy and safe little family, he just had a few things to finish up, Raven soon left and was welcomed by the Autobots, as she not had not received her Deception insignia from Megatron yet. And once Starscream received word from his sparkmate that she was safe, Starscream closed off part of his spark to his sparkmate and thought one thing: No more mister nice bot. This is now war, and the next time you and I meet, Megatron, one of us will die!
