Chapter 22

I do not own Transformers. I wish I did.

We are coming to the home stretch. I am going to try to get this done this weekend since I have a busy week ahead of me. So stay tuned.

Gabby was strapped into the medical vehicle still with her IV, and Orianna in her arms.

Orianna had stopped crying, but was still very restless, and looking around as if trying to find something. Her eyes were glowing brightly, and her spark was pulsating in her small chest.

Gabby was very sore from her operation, but not as bad as she thought she was going to be. It felt more like pressure than pain. She was still weak as hell, but not like she was when she was pregnant.

"That is amazing, Ms. Ryan," the human medic said checking Orianna too.

Gabby smiled despite her fear for her Autobot mate. "Thanks Dan."

He smiled back at her, and continued to eye Orianna. He mumbled something about miracles and seeing it all, and then they drove off.

The vehicle was equipped with a monitor that they could see with a drone.

"How far are we going to go from here?" She asked.

"About 3 miles with orders from Colonel Lennox. I still need to be close for injuries," he said.

Gabby didn't like that, but knew there was nothing she could do. This was for the professionals to handle including the Autobots.

Gabby could hear the jet engine off in the distance, and looked to the roof of the vehicle in fear.

Orianna suddenly made a face, and began to whimper again.

"Shhhhhh, daddy will be just fine," Gabby said not to sure of herself, but had to be strong for their daughter.

Suddenly, the vehicle lurched a little as Thunderwing flew right overhead of them.

She thanked God that he must not have realized that she had Orianna far enough away.

They were now far enough away from the battle that Gabby felt a little relieved for her daughter, but she was still ready in case anything happened.

The medic adjusted the monitor for the drone for her to see the battle going on.

"Are you sure you want to see this?" He asked with concern.

"Yes," she whispered anxiously.

She tried to quiet her daughter, and keep an eye on the monitor at the same time.

The soldiers and Gabby watched in awe as the huge Decepticon transformed, and they began to battle.

The radios were going off everywhere around Gabby, and Orianna became more and restless. Her eyes were now lighting up the back of the medical vehicle like a huge light bulb.

Gabby could only watch full of terror as soldiers and Autobots were picked off one by one.

The medic began to yell into the radio as Lennox had ordered the rest of the soldiers and other military to begin retreating.

Gabby could feel the tears wetting her eyes as she realized that Deserae was dead.

Do not weep, mother.

Gabby gasped silently as the female voice re-entered her head.

She watched in fascination as Ironhide was thrown into the forest once more. She knew Ratchet was injured and trying to get his sight back.

Mother, I will be going soon.

Gabby looked around frantically seeing if the voice was coming from elsewhere, but it wasn't.

Look at me.

Gabby closed her wet eyes for a moment. The time had come, and she didn't want it to happen.

Gabby looked up at the monitor again, and watched as Optimus was in the grips of Thunderwing. Yes, the time had come.

She looked down her daughter, and the baby began to smile up at her.

Tell the humans to close their eyes.

Gabby felt tears drip from her cheeks, and nodded to her smiling daughter.

"Guys, close your eyes! Now!" She ordered.

The soldiers in the medical vehicle looked at her like she had gone crazy.

"What? Are you crazy?" One said.

Orianna had a light around her.

"Please do as I say," Gabby pleaded.

"We can't just do that, Ms. Ryan," another one said.

Gabby felt frustrated; she could feel the change in her baby as she was talking to the soldiers.

Gabby and the soldiers went back and forth for another minute before the medic looked down at the little baby and gasped.

"Close your eyes now! That's an order!" He barked.

Gabby could hear some protests but the soldiers did as was told.

Gabby looked down at her daughter again, and smiled, "What would you like me to do?"

Close your eyes…

Gabby felt a sob hit her as she did as she was told as well.

She couldn't really describe what happened next. She could see the flash through her closed eyes, and felt the weight of her baby lift from her arms. The soldiers all screamed in fear, but Gabby could hear herself reassuring them that everything was OK.

The vehicle lurched again for a moment, and then all was quiet.

Gabby feared opening her eyes, and kept them closed.

"Well what now?" Asked a soldier.

"You may open your eyes," a young female voice said from the back of the vehicle.

All the soldiers did as they were told again, and all gasped in shock and awe at what stood before them.

"Ms. Ryan…..my God," the medic said in amazement.

Gabby felt the tears run down her cheeks. She didn't want to open her eyes, but knew she had to.

"It is alright, Mother," the female voice said to her.

Gabby opened her eyes to the most beautiful sight she had ever seen in all her days.

Standing there was a young woman of no more than eighteen years old.

"She has your face," another soldier said in awe.

Indeed she did.

Orianna stood about Gabby's height. Her white hair flowed past her shoulders in waves. Her spark beat through her chest in the middle of creamy skin. Her eyes glowed a blue white in the vehicle.

Gabby did indeed see herself in her daughter, but it was her eyes, they were what Gabby remembered as bright as Primus's eyes. Even more so than her father's optics could ever shine in a million years.

Gabby smiled slightly through her tears at her now grown daughter. She was beautiful, and mesmerizing. Her light was something that Gabby could have never imagined.

Gabby would have called her an angel from Heaven, but instead of something white on she actually had on a dark blue flowing dress.

Gabby looked down at her now empty arms sadly. Her daughter was there to fulfill her destiny, and it made Gabby sad she had seen her so little for only hours.

Orianna came and sat beside her mother, and took her in arms. Gabby could feel the warmth that she had felt so many times with Optimus.

Orianna and Gabby separated, and Orianna said, "Please do not feel sad. I will be alright."

Gabby looked at her daughter now grown into a beautiful young woman. "You are so beautiful."

Orianna smiled again, and said, "Come, it is time to rescue father."

Gabby didn't want to let her go, but knew she had to.

Orianna sensed her mother's fear, and said, "We shall be safe."

Gabby nodded and Orianna helped Gabby to her feet. Orianna held her mother's hand, and said, "Feel no pain."

Gabby did not feel any pain. In fact, she had felt better than she had in months.

"Your father is going to be shocked," Gabby commented to her daughter.

Orianna giggled at Gabby, and Gabby said to the medic. "Open the door please."

The soldiers still sat there in complete shock, and finally the medic opened the door for the two women as they held hands.

Gabby and her daughter stepped out into the sunlight, her hair glistened in the light. Orianna turned to Gabby and said, "Stay here, and when I transform follow behind me."

Gabby could only nod in agreement.

Gabby could not think, could not feel. Never, ever would she have imagined Orianna to be this way. She remembered Optimus telling her about the Dynasty of the Primes, but Orianna was something more, and she could not describe it.

Her daughter was something truly magical.

Suddenly, Orianna embraced her, and said, "I love you so much."

Gabby wrapped her arms around her child, and said through tears, "I love you. You are my miracle."

Orianna left Gabby's grasp and Gabby watched in complete awe as her daughter transformed.

Gabby couldn't figure out what she now was, but it was amazing.

She was come kind of shuttlecraft that Gabby couldn't quite put her finger on. She could imagine the humans killing for that kind of technology. Not on her daughter. They would never come near her after this.

So, she was a transformer after all. It didn't take long for Gabby to figure out the whole time she was pregnant with Orianna the child was in holoform as to not hurt her human mother.

The shuttlecraft had a mixture of white and dark blue, and Gabby looked on proudly to see the Autobot symbol on the nose of the craft.

It was no bigger than a human fighter jet, but Gabby already knew her daughter's powers, so she had no doubt she would and could defeat Thunderwing.

"Mother stay behind me," Orianna ordered.

Gabby nodded and watched as Orianna took off with no effort whatsoever.

Gabby turned and said to the soldiers who were still watching in disbelief.

"We have to get back to the battle sight!"

This time the soldiers did not argue with the human who was the mother of a transformer.

Gabby rode in the back and prayed to God and Primus to keep both of the Autobots she loved the most safe.

They arrived just in time as she now spotted her daughter in robot mode.

How could Gabby even describe her? She was blue in the arms and legs, but white in torso area. Gabby could see her father in her daughter's robot form, and smiled brightly. She did have Optimus in her after all. She was a female Optimus in robot form, and Gabby in human form.

Optimus! Oh my God!

"Optimus!" Gabby began to run to her fallen mate, but was stopped by a soldier.

Gabby could only watch again as Orianna looked around, and Thunderwing eyed her with fear after Orianna threw him easily to the ground.

Lennox ran up to Gabby and asked in concern. "Gabby! Are you alright?"

Gabby turned to her friend and smiled. "Yes, I am."

"Who is that?"

Gabby could only look on. She was still worried for her daughter, but not as much as she thought.

Gabby smiled at Lennox's confusion. "That is my spark."

Lennox could only look at Gabby in amazement and confusion. "So…..she's your…..wait …what!"

Gabby laughed at the reaction. "Yes, that is Orianna."

Lennox looked on breathlessly. "Holy shit…." he mumbled.

"Who are you!" Thunderwing demanded angrily.

Orianna's eyes flashed at the Decepticon.

"The daughter of a Prime," she said calmly.

Thunderwing backed up in absolute fear.

Orianna shook her head at the Decepticon, and said, "You need to learn Thunderwing, a better way, a new way."

Even with Orianna's strength Thunderwing was still powerful.

Gabby screamed as Thunderwing took a shot at Orianna who staggered back a little.

"You will never defeat Unicron sparkling!"

Orianna's gun began to charge a white light. "Leave this planet now, Thunderwing. You have hurt my family enough!"

Suddenly, the white light came from Orianna's gun. It hit Thunderwing so hard that he flew back like the rag doll this time.

Gabby and Lennox covered themselves at the force of the gun.

"Wow…." Lennox muttered.

A terrified Thunderwing began to crawl away from the young Prime.

The white light shot from her gun again. "That was for my mother."

And again. "That is for my father."

Thunderwing roared and was able to stand. His injuries were great, but he was still undefeated.

Orianna was charging another shot when Thunderwing managed to transform and take off into the sky.

Gabby felt the fear again. Damn, would anything be able to get rid of him once and for all.

Orianna looked on to the sky, and then looked around to the ground at her still father.

Gabby could see the worry in her daughter's eyes, and she took off running.

Optimus was still online, but very injured. Both mother and transformer daughter looked on at the injured.

"I will take care of Thunderwing, but first I must fix my father," she said to Gabby.

Gabby rubbed Optimus's faceplates with tears running down her face. She looked up at her daughter who looked sadly on.

Suddenly, Orianna stood towering above her, and said loudly. "I want every human to close his or her eyes again."

"Please listen to her!" Gabby yelled out.

"Do as she says!" Lennox yelled out.

Orianna looked down at Gabby, and said, "Step back, mom."

Gabby nodded stepping away from Optimus. She didn't want to, but knew what Orianna was going to do.

Gabby closed her eyes and felt the ground rock beneath her feet.

Again, she spotted the flash around her from her closed eyelids. Then she heard something that made her cry out with joy.

"Ok, you may open them again," Orianna said now bending over her father.

Gabby ran back over to Optimus who started to groan.

"Father….."Orianna whispered smiling through her faceplates.

"Optimus?"

Gabby could hear the rest of the Autobots and soldiers coming back to life behind her. Lennox was on the radio asking for more help for the injured.

She ignored the mumbling and talking and chaos going on around her.

Both mother and daughter looked at each other as Optimus opened his optics.

He looked up his daughter for the first time in confusion, and asked, "Who are you?"

Gabby began to sob as his injuries began to disappear.
