Cuteness alert for this chapter! Prowl gives birth to his sparkling~
Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers, it belongs to HasTak. I claim only Aquafire, her trine, Skyblitz, Wildfire, Lightning Bolt, and the four sparklings~
I love you all for all the reviews I've been getting! Keep reviewing! Have a energon cookie for being so patient :3
EDIT! I had to edit this chapter! I realized there was a large paragraph missing from it!
Aquafire, Bolt, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Skyfire and some of the femmes anxiously waited outside the med bay. Prowl had gone into labor early that morning and it had dragged on for hours. They'd heard plenty of yelling, cursing and even threats being thrown about. They were all pretty sure Prowl was going to kill Jazz by the end of it but everything had quieted down about an hour earlier so they were only waiting for Ratchet to open the door.
"Three at a time can come in." They all looked up when Ratchet stepped out, looking quite peaceful for once. "Don't make too much noise though, the sparkling is resting." Aquafire and the twins were the first to go in. The twins each looped an arm around the heavily pregnant femme, supporting her as they walked. This earned a few giggles from those around them but they ignored it as they went in to see the happy family.
Prowl was on the berth, resting while Jazz sat at his bedside with a small bundle in his arms, smiling brightly as he stared down at it. He noticed the trio and his smile widened as he motioned them over.
"Ah'd like ya ta meet our daughter, RaveDancer," He purred softly. He shifted the bundle and exposed the little femme to their curious optics. Aquafire immediately cooed and twittered at the sleeping figure, gently waking her from her slumber. The sparkling turned sleepy optics towards her and cooed before snuggling against her Sire's chassis. "Wouldja like ta hold 'er?" Jazz asked, visor brightening a little as he smiled.
"Yes," She breathed softly. RaveDancer was gently transferred into Aquafire's arms so she could hold the new spark and she smiled brightly. "She's so beautiful," She whispered. "Hello, little one," She cooed. "Aren't you a cutie? You're going to be a little spark breaker when you get older, I just know it." The twins smiled at this, glad their lover was comfortable with holding another sparkling.
"Ya two should hold 'er," Jazz told them. "So yah can get used ta wha' it feels like." Sideswipe stepped closer and looked hesitantly at the sparkling. Rave cooed and smiled at him, waving her little arms excitedly. Aquafire chuckled and handed the little femme to her lover who almost instinctively knew what to do and how to hold her. Rave squirmed a little in his hold, whining when it was too tight and looked up at him with pleading optics. Sides immediately loosened his hold and smiled at the femmeling when she finally settled down and rumbled her small engine contentedly.
"Primus," He whispered softly. He held her in one arm and lifted the other away to tickle the sparkling, smiling when she squirmed and giggled. He held her for a few breems before he gently handed her to his twin. It was a tense few moments as she was handed over as no one knew how the frontliner would react to the sparkling.
"She's... cute," He admitted gruffly as he held her. "I hope she turns out more like her Sire," Jazz flashed a grin then. "One Prowl is enough, I don't think we'd be able to take a mini Prowl seriously."
"I heard that," Prowl opened his optics groggily. "You are lucky I am off active duty right now or you would have found yourself in the brig a long time ago."
"Hello to you too," Sunstreaker smirked. "Your daughter is beautiful by the way."
"Thank you," The SIC allowed himself to smile. The group remained with the new Creators for some time before Ratchet chased them off, telling them that Aquafire needed to rest before she went into premature labor.
"Well, that was interesting," Sunstreaker rumbled softly as they laid together.
"Indeed," Aquafire hummed in agreement.
"I can't wait until our little ones are here," Sideswipe smiled, rubbing her bloated stomach plating.
"Nor can I," Sunstreaker pressed a kiss to her audio with a grin. The Seeker hummed softly and relaxed, groaning when the sparklings moved within her. The twins looked at each other and began massaging her plating, starting at her pedes and working their way up. Aquafire purred in appreciation and smiled at them when they finally finished.
"Thank you," She murmured tiredly. They each kissed her and settled down for a nap with her.
-X-X-X-
Aquafire paced in the twins' quarters, stopping to wince now and again as the twins kicked and moved. She'd been moved into their quarters while Grapple and the others built a nursery in her own quarters.
"Babe, you're giving me a processor ache," Sideswipe rumbled. "Come lay down already."
"Sorry, Sides," She cast him an apologetic look. "I'm just so... anxious is all." Sideswipe sighed and got up, moving to embrace the Seeker from behind. He locked his arms around the bulge of her belly and kissed her neck softly, engine giving off a soft purr as he tried to sooth her anxiety.
"You'll be fine," He whispered. "Nothing is going to happen, we'll be with you the entire time. The sparklings will be fine as well." Aquafire relaxed and nodded as she let out a shaky sigh. "Better?"
"Yes," She nodded again. Sideswipe smiled and kissed her neck again before he let her go and grabbed her servo, leading her towards the berth. They sat down and Sideswipe drew her close, drawing little patterns upon her swollen stomach plating. Aquafire smiled gently and hummed a bit, listening to her lover as he tried to remember an old Cybertronian lullaby. The two helped each other along with the lullaby before Sunstreaker came in, looking exhausted and disgusted by all the filth on his armor. "Would you like some help?" Aquafire chuckled softly.
Sunstreaker looked over at the berth and his optics softened a bit.
"Can you stand?" He moved closer and held his servos out for her. Aquafire placed her smaller pair into his larger ones and allowed him to help her up to her pedes. She went with him to the washracks and purred as the water was turned on. She hummed as the hot water ran over her tense frame and looked at Sunstreaker, who was busy getting his usual supplies. She snatched the cloth from him and started washing his frame. "You don't have to," He rumbled softly. "I can wash myself."
"I want to," She insisted. The golden warrior fell silent and allowed the Seeker to wash him, purring as she paid attention to certain areas. Sunstreaker kissed her when she was finished and dropped to his knees, servos splayed over her stomach plating. He pressed loving kisses to the warm plating, murmuring softly as he nuzzled against the bulge, promising to be the best Sire in the entire universe.
The water was shut off and the two got out to dry off. They went back to the berth and relaxed with Sideswipe who started talking to Aquafire's stomach again. He was telling them how he and Sunny pulled pranks on everyone and how they'd met Aquafire and how they'd kicked the slag out of the Decepticons.
"I don't think we need to be telling them about that," Aquafire chuckled softly.
"How else will they know how amazing we are at kicking Decepticon tail?" Sunstreaker rumbled with a smirk. The Seeker scowled at them playfully and slapped their arms before she settled down again.
:-Should we ask her?-: Sideswipe opened the bond with his brother then.
:-It's now or never so yeah, we should.-: Sunstreaker responded, tightening his hold on Aquafire slightly.
The twins reluctantly got out of the berth and knelt before Aquafire, waiting for her to sit up. When she did, they each reached out and covered a servo with their own.
"Look, we've been thinking about this for a while now," Sideswipe began.
"And we figure we've held it off long enough," Sunstreaker grunted.
"We want to know... will you bond with us?" They asked, lacing their fingers with her. Aquafire gasped softly and squeezed their servos in surprise. For one terrifying moment, they thought she might say now.
"W-we've only been together a few months," She whispered. "I'm a Seeker and Seekers like being courted before we make a decision like this. After the sparklings are born-"
"We'll court you for a year if that's what it takes," Sunstreaker interrupted her.
"We'll court you for as long as it takes," Sideswipe smiled at her. Aquafire chirped nervously and squeezed their servos again.
"When the sparklings are born, you can start courting me," She purred softly, coolant spilling from her optics. The twins smiled brightly and pulled her into a very erotic three way kiss. The Seeker groaned and smiled when it ended, stroking their helms lovingly. "My twins."
"Our Seeker," They growled happily. Aquafire smiled and pulled them back onto the berth for a snuggle session, which completely ruined Sunstreaker's fresh coat of wax. Not that he really cared at the moment. He was just happy that Aquafire would soon be theirs.
-X-X-X-
Prowl gently lifted RaveDancer as she wiggled on the berth and smiled when she squealed and giggled, happily curling up in his arms.
"Only a few days old and you are already such a curious little thing," He murmured, kissing her helm. Rave giggled and cooed, looking up at her Carrier with big, innocent optics.
"How ya feelin', Prowler?" Jazz purred, wrapping his arms around his mate from behind.
"Better," He hummed. "Have you seen Aquafire today?"
"Nah," He shook his helm. "Hatchet has 'er on bed rest now. Twins are doin' a mighty fine job a keepin' 'er in one place."
"It won't be long now," Prowl smiled and cooed down at Rave when she whined, demanding attention. "She's so demanding, just like you."
"But she's got yer beauty," Jazz kissed Prowl's cheek. The SIC smiled and fluttered his doorwings a bit before he moved and set RaveDancer in her crib so she could sleep. Jazz turned the mobile on and smiled as he covered the little femme with a small blanket. She seemed to fight for a moment before her optics darkened and she fell into recharge. Prowl leaned down and kissed her helm before he followed Jazz back into their room.
"We should go and visit Aquafire tomorrow," Prowl murmured as he and Jazz laid down. "She's do any day now."
"Right ya are," Jazz kissed him. "We'll go n' see 'er tomorrow. Fer now, get some rest." Prowl nodded and settled down for recharge with his mate.
-X-X-X-
"You okay, babe?" Sideswipe helped her sit up, optics betraying his worry when the femme hissed in pain.
"I'm fine," She grunted, pressing a servo to her stomach. "They are just getting really fussy is all. Ratchet warned us that they would be a bit more active as they moved into position."
"I know but I just don't like seeing you in pain," He mumbled softly as he helped her to stand up next. "You okay?" He asked once she was on her pedes. Aquafire's wings flared and adjusted to stabilize her frame which was now out of proportion because of her pregnancy.
"Yes," She finally nodded. Sides smiled and looped an arm around her waist, holding her close as he walked out of the room with her. Ratchet had asked that the twins get Aquafire up and walking every once in a while during the day as it supposedly helped to take pressure off of her internal workings and struts. Once the time came for her to give birth though, walking would serve another purpose.
"Just once more around, that's all," Sideswipe murmured as they circled back towards their quarters. The nursery was officially complete and all of the supplies and gifts had been placed inside. Aquafire had spent hours just arranging things and decorating, chasing the twins and Bolt off whenever they offered to help. Ratchet and Prowl had both told them that it was a Seeker thing and that they didn't like anyone messing with them or the contents of the so called "nest" while they were still working on it.
"Frag you," She hissed. "Frag you and your brother! Frag Ratchet's orders! I want to sit down!" Sideswipe chuckled and easily lifted her up into his arms. The Seeker gave a soft squawk before she settled and wrapped her arms around his neck gratefully.
"Mmhmm, I love you too," He smiled, kissing her helm as he carried her back to their quarters. Sunstreaker met up with them and scolded them both, Sideswipe for babying their lover and Aquafire for trying to go against Ratchet's orders.
"Want a massage?" Sunstreaker asked, already rubbing her legs.
"Yes," She mumbled. The twins sat on either side of her and each grabbed a pede. They carefully rubbed the plating, getting into the seams to rub the wires and cables to relax her. They carefully rubbed her heel thrusters, earning loud, lazy purrs from the femme. They continued their way up but they stopped when they reached her stomach. They pressed lazy, loving kisses against the plating, murmuring and cooing as the sparklings beneath kicked and squirmed.
The twins soon cuddled with her, holding her close and protectively. The door to the room opened and Bolt slipped inside, door wings drooping a little. He gave a soft, almost scared, chirp that caught his mother's attention immediately. Aquafire sat up and motioned for him to join them on the berth. Bolt scurried over and got comfortable on the berth, squished between his mothers stomach and Sideswipe.
"Our family is almost complete," Aquafire smiled, kissing Bolt's helm softly. The Praxian smiled and nuzzled her before he settled into recharge. Aquafire smiled and off lined her optics as she fell into a much needed recharge.
-X-X-X-
Aquafire knew something was wrong when she woke up.
The twins were out on patrol and Bolt was in a training session with Ironhide, leaving her alone in her quarters. With some effort, she got herself up and drank the energon that Sideswipe had left for her. She knew it was Sideswipe because he wrote a note for her. The femme read it and rolled her optics as she finished up the energon. She contemplated just laying back down but something told her it would be better to just get up and move. So with some loud curses and a few failed attempts, the Seeker finally got off the berth and waddled to the washracks.
She turned the water on and just stood under the spray, not wanting to move. She ran her servos over her stomach plating and cringed when the twins kicked harshly. Once they settled and she felt she could move, Aquafire began cleaning herself, intakes hitching now and then from the little jolts of pain that continued to pulse from her lower body.
Aquafire thought nothing of it as she continued until she felt a large wave of pain roll through her circuits that had her collapsing to the ground. Terrified, she sent a comm. to Prowl before she blacked out.
Jazz ran through the Ark towards Aquafire's quarters, wondering what was wrong. Prowl had commed him a few moments earlier sounding a bit panicked as he asked his mate to check on the Seeker. So when Jazz ran in, he called out.
"Aquafire?" He looked around the room, visor bright with worry. There were no signs of a struggle so obviously she hadn't been attacked as he'd feared she might have been. So then where was she?
He picked up the sound of water running and hurriedly overrode the washrack code. He found the Seeker on the ground, curled up in pain, surrounded by fluid he knew was not regular water.
"Aquafire, can ya hear meh?" He shut the water off and knelt down to examine her. The femme groaned and whimpered, servos clutching at her stomach. Jazz immediately raised a servo to his audio and commed Ratchet. "Hey, Ratch, get th' bay ready, Ah'm bringin' Aquafire in. It's time."
