A baby..a baby. This word kept running through Optimus' head
The great Optimus, last Prime, owner of the matrix of commend, Autobot leader. thought of the word baby. He kept seeing families, made up of babies
Cybertron had been rebuilt, not completely. But robots could live there. So I said: Optimus only thought of the word baby and seeing babies. By dint of seeing so many babies:
He wanted a baby from him. His own baby.
The problem was that he was still at war with Megatron, less than before. And was on earth. He had nothing right to raise his child
And there was another problem...that he was fertile. His female organ and the male one did not work, preventing him from having a child. During the mating season, it was hell for him. To stop the season, he needed a baby, but he couldn't stop
Timeskip
One day, Optimus was into a human forest. Enjoying the calm and gentleness of the wind, when he heard crying
Optimus went to look and saw you, a baby, a newborn, a sparkling. He knew he would have a hard time raising you. He did not know how to love naturally, not how to take care of a child. But you were there....his baby. His dream of loving*
He took you gently, without removing your blanket. The Prime rocked you, and you fell asleep. He smiled and told himself that he had to protect you, take care of you...of his child
Timeskip.
The leader carried you in his arms, rocking you. In front of his team. Ratchet seemed angry, Arcee neutral as if she didn't care, Bulkhead and Wheeljack were surprised, Smokescreen was shocked because he saw the one he admired become a parent and Bumblebee was happy
Miko was excited, as always, Jack and Raphael (Raf) were surprised, June rather shocked and a mixture of incredibility. Agent William Fowler was angry, thinking Optimus couldn't have a child, not now!
Ratchet:’’You can’t raise a child! Do you think at his future?! And the Decepticons?!’’ Optimus:’’I don’t care. I will raise him’’
