Disclaimer: I do not own the Transformers, they are owned by Hasbro. This idea was in response to an inspirational survey/poll I had done. While I will try my best at many of the ideas, one had to be first, and after another little push, this idea was born. The sparklings need to be protected as Sentinel is now more of a factor in the horrible war and the Autobots learn of Sparkdemon's true origins. Sparkdemon, Dumpster, Spooks, Acer, Skyburner, Lowrider, and Openroad are my creations. This contains slash and M preg. No like – No read. You are warned. This is strictly fan fic, based off transformers animated. No flames or harsh comments. Constructive criticisms welcome. Enjoy!
All the Autobots grew close to the little black sparkling. Sparkdemon finally felt love and felt like he belonged, and now that he had been here for a week, he never wanted to leave. The other Autobots questioned the little one about who his creators were, but all little Sparkdemon would say was that he did not know or that he thought they were dead. Sparkdemon did not want to tell them the truth for fear that they would return him to the hell form which he came.
Prowl, Jazz, and Starscream as well as their five sparklings, Skyburner, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Lowrider, and Openroad, had really grown attached to little Sparkdemon, and the little black sparkling was part of the family as far as the others were concerned. Prowl took a special interest in the little one, as Sparkdemon always seemed to want to bury himself in Prowl's arms, seeking comfort and warmth. Jazz and Starscream loved the little one as well. None of the Autobots had any idea that this sparkling that they had grown to love was the product of the unholy bonding between the ex-Autobot Sentinel Prime and Megatron.
Sentinel was pissed, as he had been unable to locate the brat that had gone missing. Sentinel had sworn at Megatron for putting the signal dampener on the worthless brat, but got a slap and a beating in return. Not because of calling the sparkling a brat, but because Sentinel had challenged Megatron's authority. Nevertheless, both were angry that the "mistake" was missing. Not that they cared that he was safe, they just wanted to make sure he had not gone over to the enemy camp. But the harder they looked, the more they realized that what they feared may have come true. Acer, Dumpster, and Spooks knew that their brother had left, but they had figured that since he was alone, he would offline quickly as he had no knowledge of how to survive at such a young age.
When not pissed about the mistake that had been sparked, Sentinel would whine and complain about the large sparkling that he was carrying. He had gotten beaten up several times for taking about it, as he would not shut up, but he always checked the sparkling, as Megatron wanted only healthy sparklings. Thankfully, this one did not have a glitch or Megatron would have had the medic rip the underdeveloped sparkling right out the development chamber, regardless if it killed Sentinel or not, as Megatron had no places for glitches in his army. Since Sparkdemon's spark had hidden behind the other's most of the first pregnancy, no one knew that the little one had a glitch, but having since seen it, Megatron was more careful to screen his mate, making sure that it would not ever happen again. It would only be a matter of time before the 'cons would learn what had happened to their "mistake."
Openroad was playing quietly with Sparkdemon when Openroad noticed Sparkdemon acting funny. Sparkdemon grabbed little Openroad and both ran to hide under a nearby object. Prowl noticed it, but Jazz and Starscream who were watching the others, missed it. Something was wrong, something was very wrong and Prowl was going to get to the bottom of it. And so quietly, Prowl grabbed Openroad and Sparkdemon. Jazz and Starscream continued to watch the others, unconcerned about Prowl going in with the two, as the two were smaller than the others and were more time consuming. And for as patient as Jazz was, he still did not have enough to handle Openroad and Sparkdemon the way Prowl did, and thankfully neither Jazz nor Starscream had to, as Prowl took care of the two. But this day, there was more of a complication, as Sparkdemon had felt Megatron fly overhead nearby, and though Megatron had a spark dampener, he did into realize that sparklings can feel when their creators are near, and if they are afraid of them, they will run and hide. Jazz and Starscream, feeling strange, decided to bring the rest of the sparklings inside. And it was a very good thing they did.
No sooner had the three sparkmates brought the six little sparklings in, Megatron had landed, along with Sentinel and Blitzwing, trying to find the escaped little mistake. Prowl happened to look outside and saw the 'cons, and called the other Autobots out to fight, not realizing that the sparkling that Prowl was now holding was the very "mistake" that the 'Cons were looking for to destroy, but Sparkdemon knew, and he looked up with tearful optics at Prowl who took the little one away from the window and placed him with the other sparklings, hoping it would calm the little one down. And soon, Sparkdemon fell asleep, with the pregnant Jazz and pregnant Prowl watching over them, while Optimus, Bee, and Starscream went out to fight the Decepticons. Ratchet continued watching over Ultra Magnus, as the bot slowly recovered.
Megatron and Sentinel were caught off guard as Optimus blasted Megatron from behind while Bee and Starscream hit Sentinel in the crotch plate, causing the bot to double over in severe pain, but that limited the bot's air circulation as the large sparkling pressed down hard on Sentinel's internal abdominal systems. Sentinel passed out from lack of air before Blitzwing haphazardly picked up the temporarily offlined oaf, leaving Megatron in a showdown with Optimus. Optimus had his mask up and battle axe ready for the attack that Megatron would make, but Megatron failed to attack in the way Optimus expected.
"You dare attack a search party" snarled Megatron, trying to play innocent
"You are no search party, Megatron; you would never come unless you were searching for something important, like how to destroy the world. Leave now, or face me" Optimus yelled, not taking Megatron's bait.
Megatron, feeling the mistake was not worth the effort, left. Optimus was surprised, as Megatron was not one to just go away. Something was up and Optimus began to wonder if it might have to deal with that precious little sparkling they had taken in a week ago. And after making sure the threat was gone, Optimus went to talk to Prowl, something was definitely not right.
Megatron, though having left the ground, still soared over head in his alt mode. Something had gotten into the Autobots. But seeing that he had messages from bounty hunters and such, Megatron finally left. The mistake would be found and dealt with, regardless of when. If only Megatron had known that his and his sparkmate's mistake was nestled in with Prowl, Jazz, and Starscream's loving brood of sparklings, things might have turned out differently. But for now, little Sparkdemon and the recovering Autobot commander were safe from those who would do them harm.
Optimus approached Bee and Prowl, as they were the two that had found the tiny sparkling at the Autobot doorstep. Prowl mentioned that ratchet said the little one was healthy, and had not thought of going to get a more thorough scan of the little one. Optimus suggested that Prowl take the little one to ratchet to get a more thorough scan. Prowl, worried for little Sparkdemon, agreed and took the sleeping black mech to Ratchet, who was still watching and monitoring Ultra Magnus. Taking a break, ratchet took a more thorough scan of the little one, and soon found something no one had expected. The little one had been born with a glitch. Not a debilitating glitch, unless he had been born to the 'cons. The glitch showed that the little one could only accept Autobot programming. Then ratchet took a careful look at the alt mode of the little one. Ratchet shook in fear as he realized that this little sparkling was originally born to the 'cons. Ratchet soon informed Prime and the rest of the Autobots. This news made Prowl and his sparkmates more protective as they all realized that if the Decepticons ever got little Sparkdemon back, they would kill him.
So that is what Sentinel and Megatron were searching for thought Prime. We have to keep the little one safe, as well as our other little ones safe, or else all could be lost.
Starscream stewed, as he realized that Megatron was looking to kill the loving little sparkling. Starscream knew that Megatron was cold and calculating and had zero tolerances for glitches. In fact, if Icy was not so good at calming the boss bot down, Blitzwing would have been long gone. Starscream, having adopted the little one, just like the rest of his sparkmates, now understood what was going on and nothing was going to happen to little Sparkdemon if he had any say in it. And with that playing in his mind, Starscream became even more protective of his little family, not realizing that soon he would be called out to defend them.
Meanwhile, Sparkdemon snuggled in the middle of the seekerlings, alongside Openroad and Lowrider. Little Sparkdemon was happy for the first time in his life. He had finally found a family that loved him. Even though he was happy, he was still worried – what if his creators came to take him back and kill him. But Sparkdemon was calmed and comforted by his new family, in essence telling him that he would go back to his creators over their offlined bodies. And with that comfort in mind, Sparkdemon fell fast asleep. The next day was going to bring even worse than today, but Sparkdemon knew now that he would be able to handle it. come what may, he would be loved and safe.
