Chris At Age 4Setinel Prime the 2nd, who would later be known as 'Chris Stratos', was, by all accounts, a little troublemaker, he was sure no one could deny that even at his young age. He liked, at times, to slip away from his parents, if not to do a little exploring. Lucky for him, he had never gotten himself hurt in the process. After all, a four year old half-human could so easily get hurt on a base filled with giant mechs. Did that ever stop Setinel? Not normally. He had grown up around the mechs, and therefore, he never found them to be horribly scary. When he had been younger it had scared him, however, being that Optimus was one of them, he was never really too scared. He had snuck away from his Father that afternoon, he had gone into a meeting and Setinel had been told to stay put. He had been entrusted with a few other Autobots, but he found them no challenge compared to Optimus. Of course, he had played Wheeljack a visit and 'played' with his 'toys', most of which would explode almost right after. Now he was simply making his way down the hallway, it was empty, so he didn't seem to be in any real danger. He sighed, wandering his mind thinking deviously of what he could do next. It was usually not meant to be devious, but normally ended up that way.

Arsenal had been asked to keep an eye for any 'suspicious' activity from one of the younger beings in the base. Little Setinel always seemed to give his watchers the slip. Arsenal stood just behind a corner, waiting for his prey. He could hear the pitter patter of little footsteps coming his way. He stepped out in front of the boy, smiling.
"Well hello there little one, Now where are you off to?" he asked, crouching down on his haunches and gently poking Setinel playfully in his belly.

Setinel didn't even realize who had spoken at first, until he looked up. Of couse, there was the mech he had been put in the care of. Out of all his normal 'sparksitters', Arsenal always seemed to be the one who just knew when he was up to something. He giggled lightly as he was poked in the belly. In all honesty, he was very, very ticklish. "Nothin'." He said, trying to act innocent "But 'jack may get mad at me."
He said this in a way only a toddler could. Being half robot, Setinel had a little wider range of vocabulary then normal human toddlers. Or at least, that was his Father's best guess. "But I didn't do nothin' bad."

Arsenal chuckled. "Well thats good to hear, little one." he replied walking down the hall with Setinel. The little fella always seemed to slip away from his 'sitters. Whether this was due to carelessness on their parts or because maybe Setinel had a bit of ninjabot in him. Arsenal seemed to think the latter. A loud explosion could be heard back in the direction of Wheeljack's lab. Arsenal's optics widened as he picked up the little one and hid out of sight. Wheeljack's door opened and he came out a bit blackened but otherwise intact. Seeing that there was no little saboteur in the halls he just called down the hall "IM ALRIGHT" to ease anyone who was worried.
Arsenal was hard pressed to keep from laughing.

"Wheeljack go boom." Setinel gave a small chuckle "His toy bigger this time... Read bo... Somethin'." He tried to think of the word it had read, but any Autobot would know the rather dangerous object he had tampered with. And quite honestly lucky it hadn't gone off in the process of doing so. "Bomb, I think." He muttered.

Arsenal couldnt believe what he had just heard. He turned with wide optics towards the boy. had he just said bomb? He fell to his knees in shocked relief that it didnt go off while he was tampering with it. "Oh thank Primus, Or I'd be better off being eaten by sharkticons..." he didnt want to be the one to tell Prime his son got atomized while playing with a bomb on his watch.
"Alright Setinel, I need you to promise me something okay?" Arsenal asked. "Please dont play with anymore big toys in Wheeljack's lab?" he tickled the boy a little to let him know he wasnt angry at him.

Setinel giggled madly, he then looked up and nodded a bit. Partially the giggling was because he found the whole 'shartickon' bit funny. He didn't yet understand how dangerous some stuff Wheeljack made could be. In fact, he still didn't fully understand the entire war. "Ok I won't..." He commented "I was just bored." He said, though it was only partially true. Had he been older, troublemaking would have been a hobby.

Arsenal smiled as he put Setinel down. He was a lot of trouble to keep up with but that wasn't his fault. The little fella was just curious. "Bored huh?" Arsenal asked not quite believeing that little statement. He knew Setinel liked to make trouble. Buts its not like the boy had a lot of sparklings to play with so...
"Well why dont we go play to rid you of that boredom, eh?" Arsenal told him. Perhaps some games would help.

"Okay." Setinel grinned, he knew after that stunt however, he was definently not going to get 'hide and seek'. The last time he had done that, well, let's just say he got one long time out for what happened afterwards. Plus, he had just snuck off. "What kind of game?" He asked.

Ironhide was searching for Setinel who had run off once again. He was assigned to be one of his many 'sitters. Keeping track of a four year old who could never stay put, wasn't as easy as it sounds. He smiled when he heard the giggles of a child, he kne whe had found him. He made his way down the hallway where he saw hris and Arsenal. He guessed that Arsenal was here for the same reason he was; looking for Chris. "There you are Setinel." He said nicely. He wasn't going to be too hard on the boy, he was only a child. He then turned his head to Aresenal. "Evening Arsenal." He said to the autobot.

Setinel grinned at the sound of Ironhide's voice. He had always had a good relationship with the weapon's specialist. After all, he had been around since he was born. Without much of a thought he quickly towards the large burly mech. "Uncle Ironhide!" He squealed. He knew he was supposed to have been around 'hide more then Arsenal when he 'escaped'. "I was just going to see you." He lied slightly, but in a way only a toddler could lie.

"Hey kid." He smiled. He nodded sarcastically to Setinel obvious lie. "Of course you were kid.... Of course you were. And why are you over here by Wheeljack's lab playing with those." He nodded toward his watch and all of the other items he had. "Those aren't very safe."

"I made Wheeljack go boom again!" Setinel smiled up at him, then looked down at his watch "Daddy gave me it!" It was an honest comment, it worked as both a watch an a comm link. Something Optimus decided Chris was old enough to need in case anything should happen to him. He then looked calmly at the other object, setting it down "Whoops forgot to put back."

Arsenal smiled at Ironhide. "Hey there 'Hide. Found our little buddy here walking down the halls." He stood up from his crouching position. "So hows it going?" he asked.

Ironhide laughed at Chris's comment. "Good for you kid. But I think he makes himself 'go boom' enough without the help." He looked down at Setinel and smiled. "And it's not such a good idea to be playing in these parts." He continued. He then looked back up at Aresenal and said, "It was a good thing you did. Don't know what he could've gotten into." He nodded. "It's been going pretty well. And yourself?"
