Once Ravena got to the rec room she sat on the couch and curled her knees up to her chassis. Resting her head on her knees she felt the sting of Sideswipes words as they still echoed through her mind. ~: I Don't know why you want a Wedding in the first place, we are already married to cybertronian law: ~. "Why does he have to be such an aft about it" She yelled out loud hitting the arm of the couch.

"Who's being an aft" Silver dusts voice coming from behind Ravena.

Ravena looked at Silver dust. "No one...I'm just venting." Ravena said.

Silver dust raised an optic brow then shook her head. "Don't pull that Ravena...whats wrong. I haven't seen you this depressed before" Silver dust said.


Ravena shook her head as she got up. "I don't want to talk about it right now Silver dust...if any one asks i'm going for a fly...and don't worry I'll radio is anything funky goes down" Ravena said.

Silver dust watched at Ravena left. :Ratchet some things up with Ravena she's both angry and sad about some thing: She said.

Ratchet being woken up from recharge heard this. : Where is she going:

: I don't know she said she'd radio if there was any trouble.: Silver dust said as she saw Sideswipe pass her. : hang on Sideswipe just passed me...going to ask him: She said.

: Please do, I will go find Ravena and see what's wrong with her: Ratchet said.

: Alright Ratchet, Sil Out: Silver dust said before giong to see Sideswipe. "Hey Sideswipe....you alright?" She asked.

Sideswipe stopped then turned on his heels to look at Silver dust. "I'm alright Sil, just got a lot on my processor at the moment. Have you seen Ravena?" Sideswipe asked.

Silver dust nodded. " Yeah she took off she looked like she'd been crying. Did you two have a fight or some thing?" Silver dust asked.

"Yeah... I think I may have upset her about the whole wedding thing. I still don't understand but if this is what my baby wants I'll go through with it" Sideswipe said.

Silver dust sighed. "So that's why....that and she's been really acting weird since a few days ago" Silver dust said.

Sideswipe looked at Silver dust. "Weird how?" He asked.

Silver dust looked at Sideswipe. "Well she's been complaining of tank pains. She could have eaten to much or she caught a virus but you know Ratchet he makes sure that girl is in tip top shape" Silver dust said.

Ratchet went out to find Ravena and about 20 miles out from base he found her standing on the cliffs over looking the sea. "I knew I'd find you here. You like the ocean I take if you love to swim?" Ratchet asked.

Ravena nodded. "Yeah...Let me guess Silver dust told you I went for a fly?" She asked.

Ratchet nodded. "She also said you've been acting weird is every thing alright Ravena?" Ratchet asked.

Ravena nodded. "I'm alright dad I promise...I may be a little depressed. Sideswipe and I had a fight" Ravena said.

Back at base Silver dust looked at Sideswipe. "Ravena understands our customs but you have to understand hers. She used to be human and they have ceremonies to get married where we only need spark bond and we are married" Silver dust said.

Sideswipe looked at Silver dust. "I understand that Silver dust" Sideswipe said.

"Then whats the problem. I thought you'd be thrilled to be spark bonded and now going to be married to Ravena" Silver dust said.

"I'm scared alright...I'm scared that I might make a fool out of myself in front of her parents. Is that what you wanted to hear....To tell you the truth i'm more afraid of making a total aft of my self then being scared of Megatron right now" Sideswipe finally said.

Silver dust's optics widened as did Sunstreaker and Hotshot. "Damn...how long you been holding that in?" Silver dust asked.

"From the way he was intaking air I would say a while" Hotshot said.

From down the hall you could hear Ironhide yelling. "WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO CHROMIA....SILVER DUST IS OUR DAUGHTER TO. I UNDERSTAND THAT WE HAVE A SPARKLING ON THE WAY BUT STILL" Ironhide said.

Chromia looked up at Ironhide with tears rolling down her cheekplates. "WELL YOU CAN'T IGNORE THE SPARKLING EITHER...look the others can probably hear us from the other end of the base with how loud you're yelling." Chromia said.

Ironhide pulled Chromia to him and held her small frame to his own. "Im sorry for yellin Chromia. Its just with everythin happening...Im worried for the both ya" Ironhide said resting his chin on Chromia's helm. "I love you and Silver dust and the sparkling So much" Ironhide said.

Silver dust thank primus was outside looking for Ravena at the time of the yelling so didn't hear what was said but she felt a very strange sadness coming from inside. ~Hey Ironhide you and Mom alright?:

Ironhide froze where he stood. He hoping she didn't hear what he and Chromia were just talking about. : Were fine Silver dust...you're Ma and I are just talkin is all. What going on outside we heard yelling:

Silver dust sighed she had a feeling Ironhide was hiding some thing from her but put that to the back of her mind that way she could go find Ravena. : Ravena and Sideswipe had a fight and Ravena took off.: She said.

Ironhide sighed as he looked to Chromia. "The yelling we heard was Sideswipe and Ravena having a little fight...looks like Ravena took off" He said.

Chromia nodded. "They are a young couple...that will happen" Chromia said


Ironhide nodded. : Who's out looking for her besides you?: He asked.

: Ratchet...but I think he's found her he hasn't radioed in in a while: Silver dust said

: Alright kiddo keep an optic out for them...who knows what those decepti-freaks are up to: Ironhide said.

Ratchet listened to Ravena talk then knew what was wrong. "Dear spark...the reason why you're going to through this because your spark bond is still fresh and you are still young. Which is why I wanted you to wait" Ratchet said.

Ravena looked at her father then hugged him. "I'm sorry for being a pain in the aft all the time dad" Ravena said.

"You are not a pain in the all the time...some time yes but not all. But you do worry me though" Ratchet said.

Ravena smiled as she looked up at the sky. "Lets go home" She said.

Ratchet nodded as he tranformed and took off back to base. ~ Ratchet to base found Ravena 40 kliks from the base~ He said.

Silver dust and Sideswipe let out a relieved intake.

Ravena made it to base then landed before transforming.

Sideswipe walked outside and smiled. "Im sorry for yelling at you Ravena. I don't know what got over me" Sideswipe said.

Ratchet looked at him. "Both of you follow me" Ratchet said as he walked towards his medical lab.

Ravena followed as did Sideswipe. Ravena knowing what her father wanted to talk about since he'd already told her why she was acting the way she did.

*Do you have any Idea what he wants to speak to us about*

*Yes but i'll let my father explain alright...and sorry for yelling Sideswipe. I will always love you*

Sideswipe held Ravena's servo in his own then nodded.

Ratchet looked back then smiled before entering his workshop. "Alright Sideswipe...you've no doubt been getting the same mood swings as Ravena have you not" Ratchet asked.

Sideswipe nodded. "Yeah...it comes at random times but some times i'll be happy one moment the next i'm fraggin mad over nothing. Is there some thing wrong with me?" Sideswipe asked.

Ratchet shook his head. "No but there was a reason why I wanted Ravena to wait until she was better aquainted to controlling her emotions better like we all have. What you are feeling are her emotions. Through out the weeks you will have random spurts but you will be able to figure out which emotion is which, because Ravena will be experinceing it first. No doubt when you two had that fight Ravena started yelling first" Ratchet asked.

Sideswipe blushed as he rubbed the back of his helm. "You heard that?" He asked.

Ratchet sighed. "Next to Chromia and Ironhides little yelling session I think every one heard you two." Ratchet said.

Silver dust heard this and kept close but out of sight. ~ why were Ironhide and Ma fighting about?~ She thought to her self as she listened.


Sideswipe looked at Ratchet. "So why are Chromia and Ironhide fighting this time. Doesn't Ironhide know not to make Chromia to angry?" Sideswipe asked.

Ratchet nodded. "He knows, Sideswipe its just that with Silver dust being adopted and the sparkling being his young Chromia thinks that he should be more worried about the sparkling then Silver dust seeing that she's already a teenager so to speak. " Ratchet said.

Silver dusts spark sank into her tank as she heard that. She was causing a fight between her parents which isn't what she wanted. She backed up from the door and started to walk away that was until she bumped into Sunstreaker.

"Sil whats wrong?" Sunstreaker asked seeing tears rolling down her cheek plates.

"Leave me alone Sunstreaker" Silver dust said as she transformed and took off out of the base.

Sunstreaker sighed and soon followed soon loosing track of her. "Damn where did that femme get off to" He asked out loud as he looked around.

Silver dust sped off away from the base not looking back. Those words Ratchet uttered hit Silverdust like a ton of bricks. ~What!? Why the frag would they be fighting?...~ Silverdust's optics shuttered she slid against the wall. ~Great! just GREAT! My parents are fighting because of me!~ She growled quietly to herself just i killed her knowing she was the cause of any fight or pain, it killed her even more that it was Ironhide and Chromia. She loved those two with all her spark and she was happy that they were going to have a sparkling of their own and really happy because she was going to be an older sister again.

Back at base when Ironhide got word of Silver dusts leaving he hit the wall so hard it left a large dent in the wall. ~ Damn I knew she heard us~

Silver dust got to a far cliff and soon stopped transforming to her robot form.
