This story happens about 4 months after Blaze finds out she's pregnant. Don't you worry my little one is coming in all good time. ;) Without further ado, here's the first of my last 10 fics!
More to come after that though in the fall. 

"Almost, I just need to scan the spark to ensure it's circuits are coming along okay." He continued to move his systems scanner probe over her lower abdomen and she sighed and let her head fall back. When he had finished she lifted herself up and slid off the table to the ground. "Careful with yourself, are you all right?" "I hate being treated like I'm made of glass First Aid, please don't add to my aggravation anymore!" Giving him a growl which rang in his audios and a glare that could shred metal, the femme turned and left the medbay. Her mood swings were caused from her new spark, all her feelings were out of whack, later she would probably regret snapping at First Aid, after all he was just helping her.

Slowly walking down the halls which lead to the quarters of Metroplex, Blaze dimmed her optics and felt a little bit sick. She made her way to the upper levels of the high ranking Autobots and stopped at a her door, she entered the entry codes and soon she was in her home. Tired, she dragged herself over to the couch and lowered her stiff frame to the soft cushions. Relief as well as a state of calmness swept over the tired femme. The last few months had been really hard on her. After the death of her lover, she was totally shattered, even after she found out she was carrying his child. The fact was it had taken sometime for her to just not cry at the thought of him. Blaze had learned that he never really died but was always in her heart. 

Learning of the news of her child made her over joyed but she also felt pain at the fact that Prowl wouldn't be there to see it be born to the world, let alone be in its life. She sighed and pressed her head back into the soft pillow behind her. The comm sounded and she focused her optics over to the commlink center. It kept sounding and she raised herself up to answer it. Optimus was on the other side. [Blaze, this is Optimus.] [Oh hi Prime, what is it sir?][Are you on duty today?] [Yes Sir, I'll be reporting for Secret Police duty in 3 mega cycles.] [You'll have to resign from that for awhile Blaze.] [Why Prime? I thought you wanted me to take command of the Police Force?] [ I did Blaze, but I have just learned of your situation, you are in too a fragile state to engage in any strenuous activities. It's not just the devastation of Prowl's death that you faced which concerns me but the fact that you are carrying a spark and we can't endanger it in anyway.] Blaze took in his words and she shook with frustration. What would she do for the remaining 5 months of her pregnancy? But still she had to obey her leader. [Very well Prime. In the time I'm off duty what do you want me to do?] [I talked to Phoenix and she's going to allow you to stay with her, not just for company but for help in case you need it. You don't have to do anything until your child is born. Optimus out.] Blaze smiled, she liked her friend Phoenix very much, she hadn't known a lot of the Autobots. She mainly knew Phoenix, Springer and Rodania the best. Ro was about the same age as she was, her sister was always so gloomy and without expression that Blaze only saw her once and a while.

Contacting Phoenix over the commlink Blaze told her of what Prime had said to her. Nix had said that she knew and told her to bring her stuff and come on over. Magnus had been all right with the whole thing, for Blaze was staying in their guest room, she was a friend of his and his mate, so of coarse they'd help her, even without Prime's  asking. The black and white femme had packed up her belongings and locked her door by entering the security codes, leaving her quarters to go down the hall to Nix's and Mags'. 

When she arrived at the door to her friend's place she was greeted by a hug on her leg by a little femme, namely Zephyr. "Hiya Blaze, Mommy's inside and I think Daddy's with her, come on in." The little femme blinked her blue optics as she stared up at Blaze's warm blue optics, a smile across her face. Blaze now understood some of the reasons why she was glad to have a child  of her own coming. The doors whooshed open and Mags greeted Blaze as the little femme ran up the large Autobot and he scooped her up into her arms and said "Hi Sweetie." Phoenix welcomed her friend and she lead Blaze over to the lounge room. The three adults all sat down and Zephyr got out of Mags' grasp and ran to her room. For a couple hours the three just sat and talked, laughing and just enjoying eachother's company. Phoenix looked at her clock and widened her optics. "Spring's gonna be by soon. He said he'd be here to take Zeph along with Optima to the park outside of Metroplex. I should go along to but I'm so tired." Blaze looked at Magnus and then at Phoenix, she could tell they wanted to be alone and she had wanted to talk to Springer for awhile, "I'll go in your place and help Spring take the two. I can look after Zeph for you two, give you two a break, I mean you've been working non-stop for that couple of days."

Phoenix smiled at her friend and agreed. There was a chime at the door and Magnus opened it to see Springer standing in the hall with a little green femme by his side holing his hand. Phoenix called Zephyr and  Blaze took the little blue femme's hand and she left with Springer out of Metroplex toward the park. "So what's up Blaze? I hope you're feeling a whole lot better, I mean you don't look like a truck ran over ya anymore." She smirked at him and she shook her head at how she once looked a few months ago. "I'm fine now Spring, thanks for your  concern. You and Nix must be experts at raising your kids, I'm just a rookie when it comes to parenting, how will I be able to do it?" "It's a bit  harsh the first year but you'll get used to sleepless nights. It's all worth it in the end, I just haven't reached that point yet. Primus, Optima can be quite a handful at times but we love more than anything me and 'Cee. You'll get your own taste of parenthood soon enough." The two Autobots walked along the park until they came to a bench and sat themselves down, watching the two small femmes run all over the park climbing on all the equipment. Springer sighed as he watched his daughter and Blaze watched along to, but she soon blurred that image out and she remembered something which made her smile silently to herself. Springer looked over at the black and white femme sitting next to him and something came to him, none of  the Autobots, even Blade her sister, knew very little of her past and how she met Prowl. "Do you mind if I ask you something?" Springer was on a serious note. His voice was lowered as if what he was about to ask her was too hard to say. "Go ahead Spring." Blaze knew what he was going to say and she knew that he asked here this not to torment her but to learn something they all would need to know. "How'd you meet Prowl?"

She took her sight from his face and moved head to look at the ground. Taking a deep breath, Blaze thought of the time gone by. "It was about 2 years ago." She started into her story and Springer never let his audios off of her words. "Once I was  prisoner of Megatron. Oh let me start  at the very beginning. As you know Blade is my sister, our family once was on the planet Samura , in refuge from the Decepticons. Well the Decepticons attacked that planet causing the Samurian Massacre, thousands  of Autobots died that day. I was very young at time but I remember the screams the blood, horror you wouldn't believe. In all the chaos I was separated from my parents and sister. I had hidden in some of the dead corpses, trying desperately to hide myself from the Decepticons. After the slaughter and I thought the enemy had left I got out to witness a sight I'll never forget as long as I function, all around me were dead mutilated and mangled bodies, covering every inch of the charred ground. I made my way along crying out for my family, I found my dead parents and as I was crying over them, a shadow appeared in front of me. He grabbed me and lifted my body into the air.  I'll never forget his face, so lustful, hateful, so evil. It  was Megatron, he chuckled at me and through my fear he slapped me one in face, I was put under his arm as I screamed out Blade's name hoping she was alive. I saw some movement, but I wasn't sure she was alive and had heard me. Then everything went black."
        Tears were building behind her optics and Springer gave her a sad look and gave her a small hug. "That's not the worst of if Spring. I was taken aboard the Decepticon star cruisers, when I came to I  was in shackles chained to the wall. My blurred vision gave me the terrifying scene of my planet and family all dead, I wish I was with them after what happened next to me those next few years. I was taken to a space outpost prison center, where prisoners are slaves, they didn't have to many femmes as slaves. I remember repeatedly every night all the sadistic Decepticons who would fulfill their lusty desires on me, over and over. I tried to escape the horror of it all, one time I tried to fight what they were doing to me but I was beaten and my shoulder was dislocated. I remember repeated rapes for a while, then they made me monitor the stations till I dropped of exhaustion, it was a lot better than being countlessly beaten and used. Everynight I had prayed to Primus for help. It came one day, the Cybertronian Secret Police came into the region of my outpost and they destroy them.  I was in the basement containment cell when the Autobots came in. You can't imagine the over joying feeling of seeing your people come and save you from your unending torment. I saw their leader as they fired at the Decepticons, killing them all. He was Prowl, that black and white exterior and the look in his optics drove me wild. I'd fallen for him big time. I knew then. I was in the shadows of my cell when the Autobots came blasting in. When every Decepticon was dead, they came to our cells and freed all the prisoners. Prowl came to my cell and freed me from my confines, I don't understand why but we were  both police cars in our transformations and we were both black and white in our robot forms. As he helped me to my feet I looked in his optics and my fuel pump was beating triple time. How could anyone captivate me so much. After all the Autobots were rescued we all became new members of the Cybertronian Secret Police. Prowl was in command, we started talking more and more over time. Then he asked me to be his femme. We were a couple for about 6 months, I had moved up in rank in the Police force. He later on got down on one knee and asked me to bond with him, I said yes and we were bonded together. I was his mate for about 1 ½  years before we came back to Earth and Cybertron of our missions in the Scorbos Nebula. It was a long story Spring but there's your answer."  Blaze smiled a really smile at him and he raised his optic ridges to return the warm look she gave him.
        "I'm sorry he's gone, hope you know thought that us your friends will always be here for you." "I know Spring and thanks." Her smile increased from audio to audio and then they both went back to watching the two small playing femmes. Blaze trusted her friends, especially Phoenix, Springer and Rodania, and knew they'd be there for her in the future. She felt the spark in her flare with a burst of energy and she smiled as she turned her face to the sky, letting the warm sunshine flow over her.
