Linley's graduation had finally arrived. She left early in the morning that joor. Hacks drank his early morning energon. He prayed to Primus that this went well. He was more than willing to start over like he had promised his bonded but at the same time he really wanted to know the feeling of have creators again.
He cleaned himself up and made his way out the door. He headed down the street to where his new extend family was staying. He knocked on Jazz and Prowl's door first. Jazz opened the door and smiled at his son-in-law.
"Morning Hacks."
"Morning! Hope I did not wake you."
"You did not wake me or Prowl. We have been up for a cycle waiting for you to come by and tell us that we need to get going."
"Well, that is why I am here. I am here to tell you that I will get Adora and Vincent and I need to know if you will get Prowl's parents and his sister too. The medic did not seem happy to see me and I do not know what he is like first thing in the morning."
"Usually not in the best of moods, Hacks." Jazz tried to offer a calming smile. "Where do you want us to meet you?"
"Outside is fine. Linley is at school and she will be there until her graduation is over so there is no risk of her seeing you."
"Okay. See you soon enough."
The hacker climbed down the steps and went across the street. He knocked and while waiting for the door to open he saw Prowl and Jazz climb the steps of where Prowl's parents are staying.
"Hello Hacks." He turned around and smiled.
"Good morning Adora. I hope I have not woken you."
"Not at all. May I ask you a more personal question though?"
The inventor nodded and was slightly curious. What did this femme want to know about him that she did not already know? Right... He did not explain much.
"Go ahead. What is your question?"
"Well I hope it is not too much to ask, but how old are you exactly?"
The hacker laughed and smiled. "That is not a question I find personal. A decacycle ago was 25 metacycles since my creator had me."
"So you are only about 4 metacycles old then Linley."
"That is correct."
"We really should get going."
They started down the steps and joined the rest of the gang in the empty street. Hacks spoke again. "We need to sneak in if we do not want Linley to know you all are here." Hacks led them all to the school and one by one they went inside.
Hacks took a deep breath and waited. One by one the students went across the front stage as their names were called out. "Linley!" She got up from her chair and went across the stage. Hacks stood in front of his new family and cheered.
"WOOHOO!" He whistled and she looked up and smiled at him. She took what was handed to her and she walked off stage. "Mimi!" Both Hacks and Linley cheered for their good friend. They ceremony finished and they headed outside.
"You!" Mimi jumped in front of her best friend and growled.
"Mimi stop! They are not here to hurt her!"
"And how do you know that!?"
Linley put a servo on her best friend's shoulder. "Because they are my family, Mimi. Though I must admit I did not expect you, either of you, to come."
Jazz stood in front of Prowl. "We did not come alone Sweetspark."
Mimi moved but glared at Jazz and Prowl.
"Ratchet, Optimus, Jemma, Adora and Vincent came with us."
"Where are they?"
"Right here, Linley." Ratchet came around the corner and smiled at his grand creation.
"Grand-Carrier!" She ran over to him and hugged him tight. "Oh I have missed you so much!"
"I have missed you too, Linley."
Jemma and Prime appeared next. She nodded and smiled at them. Finally, Adora and Vincent appeared. She smiled and gave them both a hug. Hacks held his breath. His bonded clearly seemed happy to see the medic the most. Clearly she had a very good relationship with him. She was now looking at her carrier and sire, like she did not know what to do with either of them.
After a few klicks she went over and hugged her carrier. "I have missed you carrier."
"I have missed you to sweetspark. Hacks told us about your schooling and I am very proud of you. I love you, Linley."
"I love you to Carrier. I hope you will be staying for a bit."
Jazz smiled. "We will stay as long as you want, Linley."
She nodded and then with straight face she moved back and looked at her sire. Prowl felt his spark break. His little girl was all grown up and wanted nothing to do with him anymore. He looked at the ground and was willing to accept whatever his daughter said to him.
"Sire." Prowl winced as he noticed the cold tone in her voice. "Sire." He looked up at his daughter scared that she would see right through him.
When he looked in to her optics he became confused. Her voice was as cold as ice but her optics were filled with tears. "Sire!" She ran at him and hugged him tightly and sobbed. "Sire, I am so sorry. I love you so much sire. Please stay here with carrier. I do not want you to leave. I do not want you to ever leave me."
Prowl clung to his daughter. She would always be his little girl no matter how old she got. He started to cry as well. "I will never leave you, Linley. I love you so much. I have missed you so much. Primus… I really have missed you." He kissed his daughter's cheek and she kissed his cheek back.
Hacks smiled. He was more than happy. He was so happy that this reunion had gone so well.
::I know you had a part of this.::
::I actually did not have a part in this. I am the only one responsible for this. But, am I in trouble for going to find them?::
::No, not at all. You felt my spark ache and you reacted like any bonded would, you wanted to take my pain and suffering away. Thank you for hunting down my family and bring them here, to my graduation. I also love you so much Hacks.::
::You are more than welcome Linley and I love you too.::
"I do not care what you say sire. I know in my spark I will always be your little femme. I will always be a sire's femme."
Prowl rubbed her back gently. "Forever you will be my little femme. Nothing will change that sweetspark."
"Let's go back to my house and we can celebrate."
"Sounds good."
"Good and yes grand-carrier you can have your scans after we have some energon."
The medic laughed. "You know me to well."
"That I do."
They all headed back to the home that Linley and Hacks shared. They got back to the home and Linley let him do his scans.
"You're carrying twins?"
Linley nodded and smiled. "That I am. I have known for quite some time Grand Carrier."
He smiled. "I wish you would come back to base… I would feel better if you were there with us rather than here."
Linley only smiled and nodded. "I miss you too, Grand Carrier."
At the end of joor, Prime, Ratchet, Jemma, Adora and Vincent had gone back to back. It was only Jazz and Prowl that stayed behind.
"Did you give any thought to what Ratchet had to say?" Linley looked up and past her sire and saw that Jazz was smiling and laughing with Hacks.
"I did give it some thought. But what would I do?"
"You have three degrees Linley. I am sure there will be something for you to do. Plus you have the unborn sparklings to think about."
"I know. Hacks and I discussed it. He was going to be more of a stay at home sire. He has seen much of Cybertron and is ready to stay in one place. I told him I was willing to go out and work. I had the degrees and he didn't. I would get more income then he would. We could and would live better if I worked and he stayed home."
"But if you come back to base and work with us then income will not matter. It never mattered when you grew up. You should remember that." The graduate nodded. "That is true Sire. As long as every bot that could work did something then income did not matter."
Linley smiled and pulled her Sire to follow her. She pulled him to where her bonded and Carrier were standing.
"It is settled."
Hacks and Jazz were confused.
"What is settled, baby?"
"Yeah Sweetspark, what are you talking about."
"We are going back to the Autobot base. We will work with the Autobots."
Jazz and Prowl smiled.
"Not that I have a problem with that, but why the change of spark? I mean, a groon ago you refused to even hear anything about the Autobot base."
"I miss my family. We are all alone out here. You are an only creation and both your creators are with Primus. But my entire family is at the Autobot base. Ever since we started going out you have always mentioned that you wanted to be surrounded by family. I am your family now, same with our unborn sparklings, same with my creators and grand creators. That also includes Vincent and Jemma. That is a whole lot of family that is so far away. I'd rather be at the base with all of them and know that a lot of bots have my back rather than live here with just you and me."
"You have a point, my love. So when did you want to move?"
"How about today?"
Hacks laughed and smiled. "I figured you would say that."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, everything is packed and there are trailers outside."
"Jazz, Prowl and I will each take a trailer. We can have all this moved in less than two cycles."
"I still have your old apartment. You and Hacks can have it. That way you will be close to the base and you can be close to us."
Linley smiled. "Sounds perfect."
Jazz, Prowl and Hacks put everything they were taking in to the trailers. Hacks sold all the homes he had in the city and put all the income in to a fund for his unborn sparklings. Everything was moved back to Linley's hometown and every box was put in the proper room. Prowl and Jazz stayed to help Linley and Hacks unpack.
Linley smiled to herself know that Ratchet was going to be so surprised and happy to see her tomorrow and would be even happier to know that she came home.
