Later everyone was busy helping out around the scrapyard and keeping an optic out for ShadowRaker to make sure he didn't try to get Drift again.

While Knock Out, Ratchet and Fixit were trying to fix the relic to get Drift and Starscream back to normal.

When they suddenly heard Starscream cry. And rushed to see what was going on.

But saw that Windblade was now holding him and he had calmed down. And Megatron was holding Drift.

"What happened?" Asked Knock Out.

"I was trying to help out with the sparkling and picked up the wrong one but Windblade traded me Drift for Starscream so we're fine now." Megatron explained.

"I should have done that during the war." He thought to himself.

"Guess he's still scared of you." Said Ratchet.

"After everything I put him through I can't blame him." Megatron replied and they all caught a hint of remorse in his voice. He felt bad about the way he had treated the seeker and that his fear of him had carried over to his sparkling form.

Sparkling were usually extremely trusting at that age. And the fact that sparkling Starscream was terrified of Megatron spoke volumes about his feelings towards his former master.

Megatron just hoped that someday he and Starscream could be on better terms and that the seeker would forgive him for all the abuse he had put him through.

Later Knock Out was leaving the medbay and saw that Sparkling Drift had gotten out of his crib somehow. He actually had to do a double take when he saw him there.

And then to his horror he saw the Sparkling had found his energon prob and was dangerously close to being zapped by it.

"NOO!" He cried quickly grabbing the weapon only to end up being zapped by it because in his haste to protect Drift he picked it up by the wrong end.

Fortunately Drift was fine and even amused by Knock Out getting shocked as the sparkling was now clapping and giggling.

Just then Strongarm walked over and saw Knock Out on the ground with his energon prob next to him.

"Be careful with that thing you should keep it away from the sparklings." She told the red medic.

"Agreed." He replied.

"How did Drift get out of the crib?" Knock Out asked as she help him up.

"I don't know." Strongarm replied.

Then they put Drift back in the crib with Starscream who was just waking up. Then since the sparklings seemed happy at the moment they went to get them some energon.

But were surprised by what they saw when they came back Drift and Starscream were cooing at each other in sparkling gibberish and then they saw Sparkling Drift let Sparkling Starscream climb on top of him then get over the bars of the crib and start crawly away after waving at Drift.

Knock Out went over and picked up the seeker sparkling before he could go anywhere. And Sparkling Starscream smiled and giggled at him as he gently held him in his servos.

"Looks like a tag team jailbreak." Said Strongarm.

"Yeah apparently they've figured out how to get out of the crib by climbing on top of each other and decided to take turns getting out to explore." Knock Out told Strongarm now understanding what was going on and how the sparklings were getting out.

"Well you two are busted." Strongarm said then petted each sparkling on the helm making them both smile.

"We're just lucky we caught them there's no telling what they might have gotten into." Knock Out explained.

"Drift would have been zapped by my energon prob earlier if I hadn't gotten to him in time. And there's no telling where Starscream might have crawled too." He finished.

"We need to get Fixit and Denny to build another crib so they can't help each other escape anymore." Strongarm suggested.

Then they told the others what was going on. And they got to work on making another crib to keep both sparklings safe.

In the meantime they had Ratchet look after them. Much to his dismay.

"No get off of there!" "No don't touch that!" "I needed that!" They all kept hearing from the medbay. Followed by the giggle of both sparklings.

Ratchet was relieved when the crib was finished and someone else could watch the sparklings.

"Moma." They heard a voice say. Then Windblade came in holding Starscream.

"His first word!" She chimed. "Well kind of." She said remembering he had already been a sparkling at one point and had just been turned into one again.

"Moma." He said looking at Strongarm this time.

"Which one of us?" Strongarm asked having heard him say it to Windblade before.

"Moma." He said again looking at Knock Out.

"Seriously?" Said Knock Out sounding a little insulted. "If anything I'm Dadda."

"Moma." He said to Bumblebee this time.

"OK apparently everyone's Moma." Bumblebee laughed.

"Why hasn't Drift spoken yet?" Asked Slipstream. He and Jetstorm had taken it upon themselves to care for Drift saying since he had taken care of them it was their turn to take care of him.

"Well seeker sparklings are known to develop faster." Knock Out explained.

Then deciding they might need some help caring for the two sparklings Bumblebee called Starscream's sister Solarflare to ask her to come help them since she had two children of her own and knew what to do.

And she agreed to come help. But right when Bumblebee got off the com-link with her he heard a crash and a scream.

And went to see what was going on saw Windblade knocked out on the ground heard fighting outside the scrapyard and realized Sparkling Starscream was being kidnapped.

And ran with the others to try to save him. Fortunately Windblade was fine other then being unconscious and Ratchet was helping her.

They could hear Starscream crying and it stopped and now they were all worried.

Bumblebee and the others rushed outside the gate of the scrapyard and were met with the sight of Lockdown who had been the one who took off with Starscream on the ground unconscious with Megatron aiming his fusion cannon at him to make sure he stayed down.

While Sparkling Starscream was being cradled protectively in one of the former warlord's servos.

The others quickly got Lockdown into a stasis pod so he wouldn't cause anymore troble.

"I just realized Megatron's been holding Starscream for like ten minutes and fought Lockdown with him and he hasn't cried once." Said Sideswipe.

And they all noticed that the seeker sparkling looked relaxed and was even starting to fall asleep.

"Well sparklings can pick up on things." Knock Out explained. "Starscream must have understood that Megatron was protecting him."

Megatron smiled seeing that Starscream wasn't afraid of him anymore. Then they went to put him back in the crib.

And ran into a panicked Slipstream and Jetstorm.

"What's wrong?" Asked Bumblebee.

"We went to check on Drift and found the crib empty!" Jetstorm explained in a panic.

"We think ShadowRaker took him!" Slipstream added holding up a piece of web they found.

"He must have hired Lockdown to take Starscream as a distraction." Said Strongarm putting two and two together.

They all agreed they had to go save Drift but couldn't leave Starscream alone at the scrapyard so Jetstorm and Slipstream went on ahead to look for Drift.

Just then a ship landed.
