Ironhide was fuming as he powered up his cannons, aiming them at Blood Shock. This mech had gone after Speed Demon, Sideswipe's intended Spark Mate, and Ironhide would not stand for it. As far as he was concerned, no one teases or hurts his Sparklings and gets away with it, and he will never tolerate someone trying to get in the way of a true Spark Bond. Then he heard what Wheeljack said and he froze, realizing that his intention to kill Blood Shock would be doing exactly what he would protect others from. He looked at Wheeljack, then to Blood Shock, lowering his cannons a bit, but only slightly. "That true?" he asked, his tone low, then demanded more loudly, "Is It True?! Is It Of The Spark?!" He had to know for certain before he made any action, one way or the other. If it was true, he could not hurt Blood Shock without causing harm to his intended, and she was an Autobot and Sideswipe's close friend. His Spark lurched slightly as he thought about it, realizing he was living the same torture that Blood Shock and Notitia were likely suffering from, and it was a secret only two other mechs knew about, and one of them was standing next to him. <"Sideswipe, we can't. If it's true, it'd be like killin' 'Cade n watchin' me die cause o' that."> he told his adoptive son, hoping he would understand. <"Like if Speedy were killed n you'd suffer n die without 'er. We can't, for Noti's sake... we can't..."> He vented heavily then and lowered his cannons, powering them down. He still didn't like the fact that Blood Shock had tangled with Speed Demon and kissed her, but he understood the reasoning behind it, even if the action itself still angered him a bit. He wouldn't reveal the fact that Sideswipe and Speed Demon were also intended Spark Mates, let alone his own intended, but he well understood the danger to Notitia.

Newt listened to the confrontation going on right in front of her, she had no idea what going to happen next, and she did not want to see anyone get hurt the first time she was on the base. She would have probably never returned to the base if that happened. She listened carefully as Wheelfeet called out Bloodshock for loving somebody named Notitia, who was apparently his best friend. She was slightly confused, because at first she thought the tension was caused by the fact that he was an enemy on the Autobot; instead, it appeared that a lot of the tension was between Ironhide, Wheelfeet, and Bloodshock and apparently the girls that he had going goo-goo over him. She then heard Wheelfeet state that Bloodshock had even gone to the point of kissing Ironhide's adoptive daughter. That made Newt's lip quiver, because that was NOT going to make Ironhide happy.
"WHAT!?[/b]" Newt was right, Ironhide didn't like that. He was thoroughly pissed.
Newt then shifted her attention to Bloodshock as he finally began to speak up to Ironhide and Wheelfeet. She listened as he stated the same thing that Wheeljack has said earlier. The young blonde was still cowering behind the pole that she was using for cover, and briefly caught Bloodshock glancing over at her. She then looked between Ironhide, Wheeljack, and Wheelfeet as Bloodshock stated that if there was going to be a fight then they should take it outside and away from her so that she wouldn't be scared. She smiled slightly behind the pole and carefully poked her head out a little but more just to verify that she was still there and still listening. She then tucked her head back behind the pole and listened as Bloodshock spoke up again, verifying that yes he did meet Speed Demon, but the only reason he kissed her was so that he could get away. She shifted her attention to Wheeljack as he shouted out, almost as loudly as Ironhide. She then listened to what Wheeljack had to say, stating that it was risking his own self on this situation as well by bringing Bloodshock here, so if anything happened it'd be pinned all on him. That made Newt cringe, and hoped that the other two bots would listen to reason. She listened closely as they began to talk about the call of Bloodshock's...Spark? What was a Spark? Yet another question she would have to ask, though with the way it seemed to connect with others it held dear, it made it sound very similar to a human's heart.
Newt looked over to Ironhide and could easily tell that Ironhide was still not fully convinced to not kill Bloodshock right then and there, especially after learning that he had gone after Speed Demon. She looked towards Ironhide has he seemed to actually have listened to what Wheeljack had said though, and lowered his canons, just slightly and asked demandingly if it what Bloodshock had said was true and that it was of the Spark. Newt was still extremely confused about the current situation, but with the way things were going, it seemed that Ironhide was calming down, even if it was only a little bit. Newt had no idea what Ironhide had said next, not being able to understand whatever the heck kind of language Ironhide was now speaking to Wheelfeet. She watched Ironhide the most and was relieved when he actually lowered his canons and powered them down. The young blonde sighed, but still hid behind the pole, not sure if the tension was only temporary or if one false move would set these two off again. She had absolutely no idea what to do, so for now, she would just stick behind the pole where it was safe.

Sideswipe finally gave in, retracting his blades yet his anger never wavered as he glared at Bloodshock with hatred and accusation. If any of the two femmes were lost, or any of his friends and family killed because it turned out to be a ploy he wouldn't hesitate to kill Bloodshock himself."~If this is a ploy,a plan to hurt anyone we care for con I will personally hunt you down and rip your spark from your chest and crush it my hands!!!~"He snarled in Cybertronian before leaving the room, slamming a fist into the doorway, leaving a small indention that showed the anger he was feeling.

Before Bloodshock could really answer he winced as Sideswipe snarled at him followed by slamming a fist into the door way, making even Bloodshock cringe. The threat was a serious one, equaling that of Ironhide's threat to blast him to pieces which he was glad the Weapon Specialist was able to see reason. "Yes, it is from the Spark, we nearly bonded the day we met and had to stop before it happened. It was too early and too risky at the time to even try it." Bloodshock told them honestly,"If you have to see my memories I am more then open to showing it."
Though the ninja transformer turned his attention to Newt as she peeked around a couple times and finally came over, gently scooping her up from behind the pole and in his hand, carefully holding her to his chest so she wouldn't fall. Turning back to the two remaining mechs he approached with caution,"If I had wanted to hurt anyone I would have already. With my job I take it seriously, I am precise and quick not someone who bides their time."He said opening his hand to show Newt was safe and sound.
"Besides I'm no sparkling killer, I was sickened by the sight of seeing any of them killed." He added grimly, clenching his free fist for a moment before looking at Newt with a brief scarred smile.

Wheeljack started to relax a bit as Ironhide seemed to back off a bit, though he flinched at Sideswipe's departing outburst. "Okay, well, at least he didn't try to kill him before he left." he sighed softly, then looked at Ironhide before turning to Bloodshock and Newt. "If you want, I can confirm it. I won't do anything to hurt ya, I'm not that kind of bot." he offered, nodding at Blood Shock's statement about his feelings towards Sparklings. "That's something you n Ironhide have in common, actually." he added with a glance at the big black bot, hoping to settle the burly temperamental mech a bit more.

Ironhide watched Sideswipe leave, venting a bit before turning to Blood Shock more fully. He saw the little human in his hands, though the fact that she seemed comfortable there made him relax slightly. As the young mech spoke about how much it sickened him to see Sparklings killed, the way he said it struck a chord within Ironhide's own Spark. "'Fore the war I tried ta save the lil ones lost n abandoned on Kaon's streets. Ya didn't see the ones I found layin' in filthy gutters n dark corners starved ta death." he shook his head and shuddered slightly. "I saved all I could find, took em back ta Iacon with me. But the ones I couldn't save... I took em South... let Cybertron take em back, hopin' maybe they'd be reborn ta a better life." he offered, his voice low. He looked at newt then, his expression soft and he reached out slowly, extending his digits to brush one fingertip against her cheek so gently for a moment. He then glanced at Blood Shock and pulled his hand away, his gaze turning stern for a moment. "Just stay clear o' my lil Speedy, she ain't fer you." he said firmly, then looked at Wheeljack. "N if 'Jack confirms yer Noti's intended, I won't stop ya. Ain't no bot's right ta get between bond mates." he added with a snort, crossing his arms over his broad chest.

Newt watched as Wheelfeet, apparently Sideswipe according to Ironhide, finally gave into reason and retracted his blades. The young blonde sighed with relief now that all of the weapons were put away. She looked between all four of the bots and smiled somewhat happily, until suddenly Sideswipe began to speak some insanely crazy language. The girl tilted her head and even though she couldn't understand what she was saying, she could tell it wasn't nice. Then he proceeded to slam a fist onto the wall and then leave the room. She cringed upon the smaller wheeled bot doing that, but she could somewhat understand his anger. She then focused her attention back to Bloodshock again, speaking to Ironhide about the connection from the Spark. She was utterly lost in that conversation, having no idea who was who, so she decided to simply smile and nod. Give them the benefit of the doubt about listening.
Newt reached a hand up to her head to brush her curly blonde hair out of her face, when suddenly a pair of hands carefully wrapped themselves around her and lifted her off the ground. For a minute, Newt panicked, not knowing just who had picked her up, until she looked over her shoulder to see it was just Bloodshock. She smiled up at the Decepticon, and instantly relaxed in his hands as he brought the young blonde up to his chest. She leaned against Bloodshock's chest, attempting to give him the best kind of a hug that she could for her little arms, as Bloodshock spoke about how he performed his job as a Decepticon, revealed Newt to Wheeljack and Ironhide safe and sound. She looked up to Bloodshock as he stated firmly that he was not a sparkling killer. She smiled at him as he also returned a brief smile.
Newt shifted her attention to Wheeljack momentarily as he simply confirmed what Bloodshock was saying to Ironhide, and also mentioned that their hate of sparkling killing was something that Ironhide and Bloodshock had in common. Newt glanced over to Ironhide as he began to speak about some of the little ones that he had managed to save, and others that he couldn't and she could tell that he was in pain. She could tell that he really did care and wanted to save them, but its just not possible in some cases. She frowned slightly, sad for the Weapons Specialist. For a brief moment she looked at the ground far below her, and then lifted her head back up to catch Ironhide's glance as he extended a fingertip and gently brushed it against her cheek. Though she was nervous at first, she lifted a hand to Ironhide's fingertip and placed it on his fingertip for just a moment and smiled at him before he pulled his hand away. She then looked back up to Bloodshock as Ironhide firmly stated that Bloodshock was to stay away from Speed Demon because he was not for her. Newt let a small giggle escape, because he was obviously just like any over-protective human father towards their daughter.
Newt didn't really have anything to say at the moment, after all this was a confrontation between the bots and not her, so she simply sat in Bloodshock's hands comfortably.

"Hey whoever she's meant for can have her, it really should be her staying away since she is rather stubborn for someone so young." Bloodshock said raising a hand to show he wanted nothing to do with Speed Demon in that way. Though he looked at them with a serious expression,"Like I said I'll show you my memories just to prove it, literally we had to stop because it was quite close to that point." He said rubbing the back of his neck, and if possible would have blushed but he merely turned his head away in a shy manner to show it.
Though Ironhide's mention of trying to save the dying sparklings made Bloodshock's spark ache at the sound of it, looking fully at the burly mech with sadness."I saw it a few times myself, but all of them were dead sparklings and...well they were just moved aside like scrap."He said sadly and looked at the ground,"Where I was stationed I wasn't really around to see what occurred in the cities, even was off world for a time." He told them before shaking his head to push the sadness aside. It made him think back to when he was still younger then he was now, of losing his only real friend in one of the raids and how much younger she had been then him.
Thinking back he could recall she had barely come into her adult stage before being shot clean in the chest, dying in his arms when he had hoped to save her,~"The one friend I had in the Decepticons was hardly an adult when she was killed herself so seeing younglings killed isn't new. But I spared any younger transformers I came across that might have been with a target I was after."~He told them softly, not wanting Newt to hear but glanced back at them forcing a smile,"But perhaps me and Newt should see more of the base?"He suggested.

Ironhide nodded a bit, then vented. "I think Ratchet oughta get a look atcha, just ta be sure ya ain't broke nowhere." he remarked. He was still iffy about Bloodshock being there, and he needed to talk to Sideswipe and try to calm him down. He looked at Wheeljack thoughtfully for a moment, then nodded to the inventor. "Take em ta Ratchet. I'm gonna go talk ta my son." he stated and after a sidelong glance at Bloodshock, he nodded again and turned, heading out to find Sideswipe and hoping the silver bot didn't go off and get himself into trouble.

Wheeljack watched him go and nodded a bit, then looked to Bloodshock. "Well, I guess we better get that over with, though I'm not entirely sure why he mentioned you going to Ratchet, unless he's just covering the bases" he said with a shrug, then motioned for them to follow. "C'mon, you'll like Ratchet. He's a bit of a grump sometimes, though not nearly as bad as Ironhide, but his Spark's in the right place." he offered cheerfully and moved towards the door. "Maybe he thinks that'll be the best place to do the neural core scan?" he pondered thoughtfully. It seemed reasonable at least.

Newt continued to sit comfortably in Bloodshock's hands. Surprisingly, even though he was a Decepticon, there was this odd warmth and feeling of protection and safety from him. She was glad that he was going to attempt to become an Autobot to better his future. It was for the best in his situation. He would have probably gone mad eventually. Newt listened as Bloodshock described how he had also seen young sparklings dying on their home planet and Newt frowned. The mental image of young versions of robots just like these guys around her all dying made her extremely distraught. "Thats so sad..." She commented quietly, not too sure if anybody had actually heard her. For a moment, Newt looked past Bloodshock's hands and down towards the floor below her. She analyzed just how far up she was, and just how much a fall like that would hurt before she lifted up her head upon hearing what sounded like some kind of a foreign language. She figured it was probably just the guys talking about something confidential so she shrugged it off and looked back towards the ground.
Newt's eyes lit up when Bloodshock suggested they go see more of the base. She looked over to Wheeljack and then glanced to Ironhide with a curious little kitten type look. Naturally she was curious about everything that she was going to possibly be seing in the base. She listened as Ironhide suggested that they go see Ratchet to make sure that he wasn't banged up anywhere, and from what Ironhide said she figured that must be like their medic. She watched as Ironhide nodded his head and turned, heading out to look for Sideswipe. "He's...surprisingly caring. Despite what his overly gruff and demeaning persona would suggest." She commented with a light giggle before she turned to hear Wheeljack also agree on going to see Ratchet.
"If Ratchet is as grumpy as Ironhide, then I think I'll do well. Who knows, maybe Ratchet is a softie underneath all of that robot, just like Ironhide." Newt wasn't too sure if it was appropriate to give Ironhide that kind of a nickname yet or not, but she had already decided that he was the kind of guy who came across as rude, but was secretly extremely caring and compassionate. Newt watched the surroundings pass as she, Bloodshock, and Wheeljack all headed for the Med Bay.

Bloodshock watched after Ironhide with a nod, though he wondered if was referring to the several overlapping scars along his face. It'd make sense but whatever it was the black ninja-like mech wouldn't argue with any of them and began to follow Wheeljack with Newt still in his hands. But he chuckled in amusement at her kitten like curious look, finding a little funny and cute at the same time. It might have been odd coming from him or any Decepticon for that matter but it was true.
"He could have meant my scars too Wheeljack, it's been years since my last exam and when I had any of these checked. But far as I've felt there hasn't been exactly much annoyance from them." He suggested with a slight shrug, wondering if maybe the burly mech meant that. Though he looked at Newt and chuckled again,"Newt Ratchet is a well known medic on both sides, he can be pretty blunt and grumpy from what I know but he has a 'heart of gold' as the saying goes."Bloodshock told her, least that was what he had heard.

Sideswipe meanwhile had gone outside, racing around the tarmac on his wheeled feet at speeds faster then he should have been going. It was just to relieve the anger and frustration he felt knowing what was going on, especially when he was thinking of possibly losing his friend who was like a sister to him and the one he currently loved. His energon just was boiling and he couldn't help striking the ground with his swords every once in a while as he went by, leaving deep gouges that scarred the tarmac.

Wheeljack smiled as they walked into the main hangar towards the med bay, looking over at Bloodshock. "You'd be right about that. Best medic there ever was on Cybertron, n he really is a good bot, grumpy as he is at times. He tries so hard to save us all, but it's the ones who die in his arms that haunt his weary old Spark. He could never forgive himself for losing the others, especially Jazz. You should have seen him when we found Jazz alive. He would not stop until he knew Jazz was safe and would not die on us again. He's afraid of losing Jazz again, we all are, n he's gotten more than a little protective of the silver bot. He's smaller than most of us, and faster too. One of the bravest of us. He faced down Megatron without fear, and died at the tyrant's hands." He shook his head then and vented a sigh. "Jazz is not quite the same bot he used to be. He tries to hide it, but those of us who know him best can see it in him. And Ratchet is more than a little worried about him." he added, his voice somewhat distant as he looked forward down the hall.

Ironhide went out to the tarmac, tracking Sideswipe's signal. Seeing the young warrior so upset made Ironhide's Spark ache for his adopted son, though all he could do was remain nearby and watch over his young protege. He well knew the frustration, anger, and anxiety Sideswipe felt, he could see it in him. But he also knew that such anger needed to be vented lest it do far more damage to the young mech's Spark. So Ironhide waited quietly, watching, a strong silent guardian there for when Sideswipe was ready to talk, and Ironhide made certain he was well visible to his son, standing by, passive, open, like the loving and patient father he had always been to Sideswipe and Sunstreaker.
