(Set before everything happened, when Optimus was first born.)

Three mechs in the med bay look at the femme on her carrier's chest. She opens and closes her fist, letting out coo's every now and then. The medic looks at the femme neck, seeing a mark on her. He curses, seeing the mark of a sage. "That's impossible, how can a femme be born with a sages mark." The carrier said. The femme clicks in hunger, her carrier feeding her.

Back home, they decide to down grade the femme. Not teaching her anything if she does have the power.

[Time skip, Wavern is now fifty years old, has two brothers.]

My father and mother has had two sparkling's since I was born, both twin boys. When ever were out in public, they play it off that I'm their adopted daughter, everyone believes it. The only ones who like me are my brothers. From morning to dusk, they are taught how to fire bend, I wasn't taught, I had to learn the hard way. I would watch them in secret, then at night, I would teach myself.

I knew what I was doing was wrong, but what could I do. My bending manifested when I was eight vrons old. When a fire benders power manifests, if they do not allow it to flow, the fire could and will kill the bot.

The five of us were walking down main street in Iacon. I was in front, as for what reason, I don't know, normally I'm in back. I stop when I hear something, mom shoves me "Move." He says as I stumble. I here siren's as a car speeds towards us, an elite guards car behind it. I get up, only to fall again as my ped gets stuck in a drain grills opening. Looking back at the car, I know it's a head on. I also knows if I want to live, I have to use my fire.

I gather heat, rise my hand as the car gets closer, with no sign of stopping. With a scream, I let my fire go. The car goes over my, flying, flipping and landing on its rooftop. Murmurs are heard as I make the fire shield vanish, an elite guard coming over. I watch as he cuffs the two mechs, putting them in the car and coming over to me.

I look to the sidewalk, my family is gone. I try to get my ped out, only for it to bruise more. "Easy, little one." The mechs says, I still as he gently gets my ped unstuck, picking me up. "WhisperStorm, hold her til we get to the station." The guard says as Whisperstorm takes me.

We arrive at the station, Whisperstorm carries me in as the guard, now known as Solaris, leads the two mechs in. I'm placed at a table, a femme on the other side. "Stella, watch her while we get the chief, code yellow." Whisperstorm says, heading to an office.

Stella looks at me, she smiles. "Are you okay dear." She says. "Yes, somewhat. My ped hurts, it got stuck in a drain grill." I say. Stella comes over, she looks at it before going to a room. "Gleacy, could you call medic Hook, tell hem it's a bruised ped, possibly fractured." She says. She comes back as Whisperstorm, Solaris, and a third mechs comes in.

"So this is the child, she don't look like no bender." The mechs says. I look hem in the optic, although I'm scared senseless. The mechs kneels down, I begin to tremble. "Your fine, your not...." The station's door bursts open, mom running in. "My baby, my baby are you okay." He says, running over to me. He slides on his knees in front of me, cupping my face. "Are you okay." He says. "Wouldn't you like to know." I say. "Now young lady, you don't talk to your sire like that." "He is no carrier of main. He and my father have mistreated me for my whole life." I say.

A clang rings out as I hit the desk, mom had hit me. Looking at hem, fire in my optics. "Oh don't even get me started on how you never taught me how to bend. You never asked for anyth..." Mom kicks me with so much force, I slam into a desk, three desks away. Thankfully, Hook had arrived and he is quickly by my side. He looks me over, picking me up as a fire ball shoots at us. It hits my optic, I scream as it burns. It takes three mechs each to lead ma and pa out, heading to the cells.

QuickSilver and SilverHawk come over, I weakly hold a hand out. They grasp it, I cough up energon. Hook, with Silver and Hawk close behind, takes me to the medical facility across the street.
