A/N: Been on a roll with this one. Hope everyone is enjoying it. Again, this story will be the biggest one I've ever done. Over 30 chapters is the plan. I got a lot of fragments that will be added for much future chapters. Please review and tell me how this is going. I love reviews.
I also plan to do a side-story for Shots that is based on younger Ironhide, Ratchet, Alpha, Nemesis, Cyclonus, and Galvatrion. It will be more centered around those individuals. I don't know when I will do it or what it will be called, but it will be a side-story.

~~~a few orbital cycles later
Orion sat on the side of the classroom by the window, reading on his datapad. He was alone, no one else wanting to be near him. The other younglings would laugh because he had a weaker spark than most, and that he had no creators. It was no secret that he was the son of the former Prime. He instead opted for ignoring them. He had Prowl and Barricade, and that was all he needed, even if they were older than him.
"Hey, what's your name?"
Orion looked up from his datapad, a bit startled. He wasn't expecting anyone to approach him. He saw a pink femme with white and an organic style helm. Next to her was a yellow-orange and blue mech.
"Orion," he said politely. "Orion Pax."
"Hey Orion. I'm Ariel and this is Dion," the femme said. "Nice to meet you."
"The same," said Orion, blushing a bit. While he was still too young, he did think Ariel very pretty.
"Mind if we sit with you?" Dion asked.
"No, go right ahead," Orion said. His faceplates heated up a bit more when Ariel sat next to him and leaned towards him. Oh, this will be a long solar cycle.

"Orion, what's up?" Barricade asked, smirking at the flustered youngling.
"Looks like someone gots a crush," Jazz teased a bit.
"I do not!" Orion protested.
"Oh? You have every sign of it," Prowl said. "So, mech or femme?"
"I just met two others in class. Dion and Ariel," Orion said, looking to the ground when he said her name.
"Looks like we know who nah," said Jazz.
"Let's just get home," Orion said, hearing his friends laugh. "Oh haha. Keep laughing. Prowl, I know you have a crush on Jazz. So don't even."
Jazz stopped laughing, looking over at the Praxian. Prowl pretended he didn't hear. They headed home, Jazz going separate ways. Barricade entered in the code, noting that no one was home. Not even the other twins. Prowl spotted a note, picking up the datapad.
"Carrier is with Metelic at the hospital, and sire left to Kaon on urgent business," said Prowl.
"Do you think it could be brother?" Barricade asked nervously.
"I don't know. It says that sire is with Redflight and his team too," said Prowl. "Guess we will be waiting for a while."
~~~later that solar cycle- Vosian hospital
"Are you sure you'll be fine tonight?" Ratchet asked.
"I'm sure Ratchet," said Metelic. "I have Rainfall with me."
"All right. I'll come back within a solar cycle or two," said Ratchet. "Get some rest."
"I will," said Metelic.
"She and the sparklings will be fine," said Rainfall.
Ratchet nodded, looking at the three seekerlings one last time. The eldest, blue and white, cooed at the medic. The silver mechling recharged soundly, cuddled to the youngest, who was purple and black. Metelic wanted to wait to name them until Megatronus was there. Rainfall handed the seekerlings to the medic.
The medic departed to his home via the shuttle. He knew that the younglings would be in recharge. At least he hoped they would. He walked in to see them waiting for him. Ratchet became puzzled when he didn't see Ironhide.
"Prowl, where's your sire?" Ratchet asked, putting the sparklings down to recharge.
"He's on urgent business in Kaon. Don't know what for," said Prowl, handing him the datapad that was left. Ratchet took it and scanned it over.
"All right," said Ratchet. "Time for you three to go to recharge. You have school tomorrow."
~~~earlier that solar cycle- Defense HQ
"Ironhide, I need you and your team to come with me to Kaon," Redflight said.
"What fer sir?" Ironhide asked. "Is it ma kid?"
"Kinda. Whipback has been reported dead. He just upped and died suddenly. Kaon's leader wants us to investigate why," said Redflight. "They detained Megatronus at the scene since he was found with Whipback."
"Let's go," Ironhide said.
The team organized together, heading to the shuttle to head to Kaon. Citizens gathered around the Pits stadium, police holding them back. Ironhide lead with Redflight, going in and to the rec room where two officers stood with Megatronus cuffed between them. The mech looked at his Appa.
"Megs," Ironhide said.
"Appa, I didn't do it," Megatronus said.
"Shut it!" one officer said, smacking him.
"Leave him to us," Redflight said. "You are dismissed."
The two left, leaving Ironhide and Redflight with the suspect. Redflight sat down while Ironhide stood behind his boss. The rest of his team stood outside the door.
"Megatronus, tell us what happened," Redflight said.
"I was merely speaking with Whipback. He wanted to send Soundwave straight back into battle. He is still in stasis from the last fight. Soundwave had sustained heavy damage to his voice box, faceplates, and audios. I was discussing about letting me take Soundwave's fights while he recovered. He agreed to it. I felt my sparkmate's pain and knew something was happening to her. I asked to leave and Whipback refused me many times. Then next thing I knew, he keeled over and died," Megatronus told. "I said the same thing to these slaggers and they still think I did it."
"He's telling tha truth," said Ironhide, studying his son.
"I agree. His composure says it all. I'll release you and have a medic look into why he died," said Redflight, removing the cuffs.
"Thank you," Megatronus said. "May I please go see my mate? She's in Vos with a friend."
"She was in Iacon, but I believe she left back to Vos today. Ratch' said something about makin sure she gets there safe. Got worried about ya an' came ta us," said Ironhide. "And Ah'm sorry, but until this is cleared, it's best ya stayed here. Ah'll tell Ratch though."
Megatronus nodded, understanding completely. On the inside, he was secretly glad that Whipback was gone, even if he didn't know how. It could take solar cycles for all he knew. Well, at least with Airstrike coming, Metelic could come and live with him again.
~~~a few solar cycles later
"Well sir, he died of a weak spark. Nothing more to it. Caused by stress," said an officer.
"Well, ya free ta head ta Vos. Ratch' confirms she's at her domain now from tha hospital," said Ironhide. "Ah'll join ya."
"Thank you Appa," said Megatronus. "But first, I need to stop by the medibay."
Ironhide nodded and headed with him to said room. EMT and Hyperspeed were near Soundwave, checking him over and muttering to each other.
"How is he doing?" Megatronus asked.
"Still in stasis. The damage is extensive. We're doing what we can, but Soundwave can lose his hearing, sight, and voice," said EMT.
"You're doing your best," said Megatronus. He went to his brother, leaning down to him. "I'll be back soon Soundwave. Whipback is gone. You're safer now. I promise."
The silver champion stood straight, walking out with Ironhide following. He needed to see his mate and make sure she was okay.
