It was later in that year on Cybertron, when Galvatron had escaped his prison with his faithful Decepticons and Predacons. The war had once again raged up when Galvatron ordered an attack on one of the Autobot bases. It was shock that brought the Autobots back into fighting the Predacons. It turned into total chaos now that the Predacons had the dangerous weaponary power of Scourge and his Commandos. A couple of years after their escape, a white and blue femme ran desperately towards the Autobots region. She clutched her midsection with pain written on her face. Her armor was dented in with several deadly wounds leaking off her legs. It was also a little duller in color. Her optics were cracked with her helm dented in. She was one of the Autobot fembots that had been captured by the forces of Predacons and turned into a hostage. She become the victim of Scourge's torture, forced into bonding and now running from his deadly fists. She gasped as she placed her hand on her midsection, she was running out of time. She made it over the Autobots lines and away from the main Predacon base. She choked up a sob as she almost fell forward. Then a pair of arms caught her before she hit the ground. She would have cried out in joy if her optics hadn't been so damaged.
"W-Who... is..." Her voice processor was hoarse and staticy.
"You're with friends dear... Just hang on." Said a Southern accented voice.
"X-Brawn...." She managed to say before her body convulsed. She grasped her stomach in pain and then the green and white bot quickly carried her to the main Autobot HQ. He worried about her current condition when she started gasping and almost screaming in pain. She kept yelling out about her stomach and that only made X-Brawn run faster. He knew what she meant the moment she mentioned her mid-section hurting. Ramming through the doors, with glances at his surprised comrades, he didn't stop running when he went towards the med-bay. Several feet ran behind him, for which he knew it was his brothers. They followed him and allowed him to get to the med-bay faster. Sideburn and Prowl burst open the doors, opening them wide for their elder brother to run through. And red and white fembot medic looked at him and then to his arms in shock.
"Red... Please you have to help her!" X-Brawn said in between breaths. He looked desperately into the medics optics pleading her to save the femme resting in his arms.
"Put her on the table! Quickly!" She ordered, waving at Sideburn and Prowl to close the doors. The two brothers nodded and closed the doors with a slam, not until a red, blue and white bot burst through them with a extremely worried look on his face. He was a bit taller than his fellow bots and he was also the Autobot leader. His spark ached at the sight of the quivering femme.
"Optimus! Please I need your help!" shouted Red Alert as she did a scan on the femme. She froze upon reaching her old friends mid-section, and then bit her lower lip.
"Someone go get a protoform from back! Do it now! Or the sparkling will die!" Red Alert stated. Optimus nodded and took off running down the hallway towards the storaged room. Sideburn and Prowl exchanged scared looks as Optimus disappeared down the hallway.
"Please... tell me she'll make it..." Sideburn choked up, on the verge with tears.
"With her in this condition.... I don't know little brother..." X-Brawn stated, with a strained processor.
Optimus returned with a protoform cradled in his arms and he rushed over to where Red Alert told him where to lay the form at. Red Alert then began working on the femme's mid-section, trying to get the sparkling out before it was destroyed, within a few cycles she had it removed and placed it into the protoform, letting it take over from there. Prowl was there by Optimus's side ready to wrap the sparkling a blanket they had prepared. Sideburn stayed back in the corner with a sad tint in his optics. After it had taken form, Prowl quickly wrapped it up into the comfort of the blanket and holding it to him. Optimus looked to the femme's dimmly lit optics, his spark just ached knowing that she wasn't going to make it.
"Lightstreak... What happened? Who did this?" Optimus asked with concern.
"After the... attack on the Northern Training base... I was taken by the forces of the Predacons... and held captive..."
Optimus and X-Brawn flinched, remembering the take-over clearly. It had been an awful day for the Autobots, they had lost many of their most trusted trainees and their leaders. Lightstreak had been one of hostages that Galvatron used against him to prevent the re-capture of the base.
"Then what happened?" Optimus asked, walking closer to his fellow comrades side.
"Then... I was dragged off... by Scourge..." Everyone in the room gasped in shock and in anger. "I was..... forced into bonding.....by his hands.... my sparkling is proof...." Lightstreak chuckly weakly. "Then... I become.... a victim to his.... fists.... I thought he would have.... killed me when I.... was in spark.... I had to escape..."
Optimus sighed sadly, his comrade had suffered to a point where death was bound to take her at any moment. He knew that his brother would be hit the worst by his girlfriend's death.
"Op...timus..." She rasped. "I.... ha...ve... a last.... favor... to ask..."
"Anything Lightstreak... Anything at all.." Optimus said softly, taking her hand in his two clasping it.
"Take care of my sparkling..... don't let.... Galvatron... or Scourge.... find 'em.... Please.... raise the...little one...... for me....." Lightstreak said, with limited breaths.
"Yes... I will do it." Optimus answered, nodding his head. With a smile, Lightstreak nodded. Then her optics went completely dark and her form changed from its bright colors to dull black. She was gone. Optimus hands shook as he place her hand back on the table, he said a silent prayer for her as he knew that she was gone. Sideburn now had tears running down his face as X-Brawn placed a hand over his optics shaking his head, trying to keep himself from crying. Optimus then looked over to Prowl, who stood silently with the same sad expression that his brothers held. Optimus walked to him and held out his hands for the sparkling, he made a promise and he intended to keep it. Prowl, without a word, handed him the blanket with Lightstreak's sparkling. Looking at the sparklings face, he smiled slightly underneath his facemask. It looked up to him with it's baby blue optics, just like Lightstreak had, Its armor was black with white. Red Alert peered around his arm to see the sparkling herself, she smiled letting the tears flow down her face.
"Has...Streaks optics." She said, brushing away tears. "I need to see it... let's see if it's a femme or a mech."
Sideburn's optics lit up and he trotted over to see the sparkling before Red Alert took it. His optics widened in surprise. Then turned to Optimus when Red Alert took the sparkling from his arms.
"What now Optimus? With Scourge as the father, do you think that we can turn it into a Autobot?" Sideburn asked.
"Yes... I'm sure that this one will be perfect. Unlike Scourge, this one will have the choice. And we'll help along the way!" Optimus answered, determination in his voice.
"I'm with you all the way Prime!" X-Brawn answered.
"As am I." Prowl answered as well.
"Me too! I want to prevent it from becoming evil like it's father!" Sideburn stated.
"I would also like to help." Said Red Alert. They turned their gazes to her. "And for your information, it's a femme."
"Nice. But...What do we call her?" X-Brawn asked.
"Destiny..." Optimus said, out of the blue. Everyone was silent, then jumped in and agreed with the name.
"Lightstreak would have loved that name! It's perfect!" Prowl said, jumping out of his law enforcement state. Everyone but Optimus looked at him like he had grown an extra head.
"Wow... Someones sure excited... and that isn't like you Prowl." Sideburn said. Then he yelped and dodged Prowls punch as he went after Sideburn, returning to his law enforcement self. Optimus, Red Alert and X-Brawn laughed at the sight. Optimus sighed, before taking the young femme sparkling from Red Alert. He looked at her and she looked back. The she gargled happily reaching her little hands out. Optimus chuckled at the sight and pulled her closer to him.
"How are you going to announce the death of Lightstreak? You know Magnus won't take that well..." Red Alert said, folding her arms.
"I know... but he won't like the fact that Scourge nearly killed her." Optimus replied sadly, regarding his brother. "But... I'll have to announce that I'm taking in a young sparkling as a daughter."
"I think they'll understand... you've never had a relationship with anyone because of your duties. So this will be a nice change of pace." Red Alert stated, with a grin plastered on her lips. "Eh, 'Daddy'?"
Optimus laughed knowing that it was true. He had really wanted to be in a relationship but never got the chance, he had also wanted a sparkling and now he had got his wish. He swore that he would keep Lightstreak's last words, as he promised to raise her child for her. The next day, he announced to all of his troops of Lightstreak's death and of the sparkling. As he had expected, Ultra Magnus was furious and he pledged that he would make Scourge pay for what he had done to his girlfriend. However, he didn't take to kindly to the fact that Optimus was still willing to raise the sparkling even though he knew Scourge was the father.
"It's ridiculous! You can't be serious!" Magnus shouted at his brother one day.
"I am. I will help raise her into the Autobot warrior is suppose to be." Optimus answered calmly.
"You must be fragging joking! But I will say this... I will make Scourge pay for all the slag he's caused! You will see to it!" Magnus snarled, before stomping out of the room.
"I hope you'll learn to accept her though..." Optimus said, to himself as his brother marched off.
~~~~~~~~~Several years later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a quiet day in the Autobot HQ, everyone was working peacefully. Until a scream of joy rang through building, they all jumped but then chuckled before getting back to work. Then the doors burst open, with everyone watching in amusement, as a young sparkling, looking about 3 years old, came running through with the widest smile on her face. She had grown a little, but to everyones dismay, started to like a lot alike her father. But instead of the cruel red optics, she had the bright blue ones, with her armor being black and white. She giggled and screamed again in joy as a very tired Midnight Express caming jogging in. The bullet train had taken a liking to the young sparkling. He stopped and leaned over, placing his hands on his knees in an attempt to catch his breath.
"Wha wong Midnih? Chase me!" The sparkling shouted, stopping and waving her hands in the air.
"You are something else Destiny..." Midnight said, looking at the young one with a smile on his face. "I didn't think you could run that fast..."
"What? Getting old there Midnight? Can't keep up with her?" Said one of the Autobots, smirking at him.
"You may be surprised." Midnight huffed.
"Catch me Midnih!" Destiny shouted again, jumping up and down.
"I don't think he can Destiny.... but I can!" said a sudden voice. X-Brawn rushed in and scooped up the little femme, who began screaming and laughing. He laughed as she squirmed in his grip. She laughed when X-Brawn began tickling her with one hand. Everyone else in the room also began laughing. They loved to hear her laugh. Every Autobot had liked Destiny and had excepted her, all except Ultra Magnus.
"Tickle! Tickle tickle tickle tickle tickle!" X-Brawn said in a high voice as he tickled a laughing Destiny. She screamed and laughed, as she squirmed in X-Brawns arm. When he stopped he was laughing as she giggled.
"X-Bawn! Tat tickles!" She said, looking at him with a wide smile.
"Oh... I just adore that kid! Isn't she cute?" Said deep voice. X-Brawn turned around to look at the build team entering, Destiny saw them and waved at them.
"Hi Heavyload!" Destiny said, waving at them with both hands.
"Hey Destiny!" Wedge answered, as he jogged up to her. She reached her hands out as X-Brawn put her in Wedge's arms, now Wedge really adored her, he thought of her like a little sister.
"Destiny, you know you're the best!" Wedge said.
"No Wede! You the best!" Destiny argued with a wide happy smile.
"No you!"
"You!"
"You are!"
"NO! You!"
"Okay! Okay you two."
Everyone again laughed. Wedge placed Destiny on her feet before asking X-Brawn where Optimus was, then she took off running as fast as her little legs could carry her. Heavyload laughed, when he saw her look back at them.
"Catch me!" She yelled.
"Okay... Here I come Destiny!" Said Heayload as he went to chase her.
She screamed and ran out laughing with Heavyload behind her with laughter of his own. Everyone chuckled before returning back to work, Wegde, Hightower and Grimlock went to report to Optimus before helping Heavyload catch the little femme. X-Brawn thought that he should, for the heck of it, go and chase her too. Midnight excused himself to go find the other two bullet trains, he was woren out from chasing Destiny around the base. X-Brawn walked out of the command center and went searching for Heavyload and Destiny. He heard her scream and laugh, so he followed the sound right to a training area in the base where Destiny was running around the trainees legs from Heavyload. The trainees watched with amusement as she would quickly whip around them and run to the next person. Now like what happened with Midnnight, Heavyload was having some problems keeping up with the little sparkling. He would skid to a halt when she decided to take a sharp turn around one of the trainees. X-Brawn snickered, she really was fast on her feet. She would keep laughing as Heavyload tried to catch her. Then she ran towards X-Brawn, hiding behind one of his legs as she peeked around to see Heavyload. Heavyload walked over and bent over to catch his breath.
"Looks like you get your daily exercise for the day." X-Brawn teased as Heavyload stretched up.
"No kidding... Listen, I need to head back with Wedge and them." Heavyload looked to Destiny, who currently was smiling at him. "How 'bout we go see Optimus?"
"Yah!" She shouted.
"You finally found her?" Said a voice from behind X-Brawn. They looked to see Prowl walking through the door with a serious look on his face. The minute Destiny saw him, she trotted up to him and hugged his leg. Prowl had also grown fond of the sparkling.
"Hi Pwowl." She said, looking up.
"Hi Destiny." Prowl answered with a soft tone.
"We awe goin to see Opimus!" She giggled before throwing her hands up. "Up!"
"Ha ha. Okay little one." Prowl said, picking the sparkling up into his arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he held her. Prowl then looked to both his older brother and Heavyload with his serious face again. They knew that something was up, so they followed Prowl to the main tech center. It was silent on the way there, with Destiny resting her head against Prowls. When the reached closer to the door, they heard an arguement beyond the door. They could make out Optimus, Rail Spike and Ultra Magnus, both Prowl and X-Brawn froze hearing Magnus. X-Brawn bit his lip underneath his face mask and exhanged a worried glance with his brother. They all knew that Magnus would stay away from Destiny because he didn't like where she came from. Magnus held his grudge against the sparkling, blaming both her and Scourge for the death of his beloved. And Destiny was too young to understand why Magnus didn't like her, she was always confused to why he would stomp out of the room as soon as she entered. Prowl tightened his grip on her, X-Brawn sighed, and Heavyload just hung his head. They entered the room to have Optimus and Rail Spike look in their direction. Magnus glanced over his shoulder before growling, then he stomped the opposite way from the newcomers. Optimus sighed sadly as he heard the door shut. Then his gaze fell upon Destiny and he chuckled warmly. She reached her hand out to him as he went forward to claim her from Prowl. She giggled as Optimus cradled her, with Rail Spike smiling as well.
"Magnus... he just.. isn't going to accept her is he?" Prowl said, watching Optimus.
"I don't think at the moment he will... but he'll grow to like her." Optimus said, letting Destiny try and squirm out of his grip and laughing with her as she giggled.
"Well... considering how she's growing and how she looks... it will be a long time." Rail spike said, crossing his arms. "Considering who her father is."
Optimus flinched at that comment and he placed Destiny on the ground softly before meeting his comrade's gaze. They had tried to reason with Magnus, telling him that they could change Destiny into one of them but it did no good. While they chatted, Destiny slipped away from their group heading towards the door where Magnus had headed to the next training room, where it was quiet. She wasn't noticed even as the door shut behind her, but when Optimus and the group realised that she was missing; they panicked. Searching around the tech room for the little sparkling. Little did they know that she was heading towards the training room where Magnus was sitting thinking about his lost lover. He didn't even notice the young sparkling enter as he shut off his optics. Then a pair of small hands touched his leg and he jumped, onlining his optics in alert. Looked down to see the face of the sparkling, who was looking right back. He just leaned on to his knees, narrowing his optics at the sparkling. She tilted her head with curiousity, patting his leg with her small hand. He decided to pick her up, holding her within an inch of him. He just looked at her, almost growling. She had looked almost like Scourge, without the facemask though. She merely blinked at him, before wapping him on his face. He, breaking out of his glaring, looked at the sparkling with shock. She giggled at his reaction.
"You made a funny face!" She giggled.
Then he couldn't hold back his smile, he laughed and stood up with the young sparkling in his hands. After her pat on his face, he lifted her up just to hear her giggle. She squealed and giggled as he lightly tossed her in the air, catching her quickly before she fell. He laughed with her, before holding her like normal.
"You know something... Optimus was right about you." Magnus said, softly as he lightly pet her on her head. "You really are not that bad."
"I like you too!" She said, as Magnus put her back to the ground.
"I have to get going here kid... Hopefully I'll see you later." Magnus said, waving at her as he walked towards the exit. She waved back after he left and not a moment later did Optimus come running in with a look of relief on his face. He went to pick up Destiny, becoming surprised at her fun with Magnus. He smiled behind his face mask as she yawned and rubbed her optics in a sleepy manner. He thought he should keep to himself when he had heard her story. She drifted off into sleep, resting her head against Optimus' neck. He stroked her helm as she fell into a deep recharge sleep.
