Smokescreen pushed his dark hair back as he played a game of chess with a bored Soundwave. The estate was quiet, until a loud "Yes!" was heard. Smokescreen and both Soundwave looked up and saw Wheeljack slide down the stairs, a look of excitement on his face.
"Yes! He's coming! He's coming!" Wheeljack yelled while bouncing up and down. His brown hair was a mess. More so than usual.
They all stared at him with a puzzled expression on their faces until Arcee dared to ask. "Who's coming?"
Wheeljack looked like he was going to explode, his blue eyes wide. "My old pal Bulkhead!" he yelled with joy.
Soundwave adjusted his suit as he got up with a sigh, his indigo eyes closing. Smokescreen stared at him as the butler got up. "Soundwave, where are you going?"
Soundwave stopped as he picked up a picnic basket. "I've got a hot date waiting for me."
Everyone stared, watching the man calmly walk away. Arcee's heart broke, and Bumblebee just stood there with a look that said What did he just say? "What's her name?" Arcee asked slowly, pushing her black hair back.
"Priscilla Grape. Oh, and when I get back, I want the entire estate neat," Soundwave replied blankly as he walked out the door.
15 Minutes Later
Wheeljack watched as a large man came out of carriage. The guy was even bigger than the carriage doors!
But when the man tried to get through the door, he was so large that he couldn't fit.
Bumblebee acted quickly and took out a chainsaw and sawed the door out. In doing so, he cut more than half of the wall.
Arcee dropped her broom in shock, her mouth open in horror as she stared at the damaged door. Wheeljack's mouth hung open, the piece of straw he had in his mouth falling out. Smokescreen dropped his teacup, shattering in the process. "Uh, Bee…"
30 Minutes Later
Wheeljack waved goodbye as Bulkhead left before turning around and seeing a mess.
Arcee sighed. "Don't panic everyone! It should take us 2 hours to clean up the place!" she said, full of confidence.
Bumblebee stopped. "Um… isn't Soundwave coming back in an hour?"
They all gasped before they were interrupted by Smokescreen snapping his fingers, but he was cut off by Arcee's harsh tone. "Alright! Wheeljack, stay here with me and clean up. Bumblebee, you're with Smokescreen, you two are going to find a door!"
They all nodded. Smokescreen and Bumblebee rushed out, but they were in such a rush that they forgot to take measurements for the door!
Arcee acted quickly and shoved everything, which meant everything, into the nearest closet.
"Arcee! There is nothing in here!" Wheeljack yelled his voice echoing off the large walls. The whole place was empty. Not even a dust bunny was around. The furniture was gone, as were the pictures and elaborate rugs at the estate.
Arcee slapped her forehead, groaning in the process. "Ah scrap! I hope Smokescreen and Bumblebee are doing better than us!"
Smokescreen and Bumblebee didn't know which door to take, and it would take too much time to go back to the estate for measurements. So, they just grabbed the closest door they could find, and ran out.
By the time they got back to Prime Estate, the two boys realized the door was too big.
Smokescreen slapped his forehead as he watched Bumblebee take out the chainsaw once more and saw the wall even more!
"Bee, what are you doing?" Smokescreen asked, yelling at the gardener.
Bumblebee looked at Smokescreen. "Um… I don't think you've noticed, but, it would take too much time to go back and get another door."
Smokescreen frowned. "And it's gonna be a joy nailing it in. Why can't Arcee and Wheeljack do this? They're both amazing at stuff like this!"
"Well, they're cleaning up the Estate, and I would choose nailing doors any day instead of doing that!" Bumblebee said as the thirteen year old nodded while they both picked up the hammer and nails.
Smokescreen and Bumblebee nailed the door but they were nailing the door so quickly that they stabbed all their fingers.
Smokescreen stabbed his pinky finger and started dancing around, muttering curses and growls. Bumblebee stared at his friend. "Smokescreen you- Ahhhh! Dang it! Gosh! That HURTS!" the seventeen year old yelled as he stabbed his hand with the nail. Smokescreen got back to work until he accidentally stabbed his finger. Both teens were yelling out curses, crying, and screaming. By the sounds of it, one would have thought they were being murdered.
An old, random couple passed by as they saw the two kids screaming and yelling. Smokescreen was on the floor crying while Bumblebee just looked like he was dead, sprawled out on the concrete steps with his eyes closed.
Inside the mansion, Arcee and Wheeljack were frantically cleaning, rushing around to make the place look spotless.
Arcee paused in her sweeping and frowned. "What do you think Soundwave and his...Hot Date are doing? I mean, is she really hot?"
Wheeljack glared. "Arcee," he snapped. "Get over your pointless crush with Soundwave and help me keep our jobs!"
At that moment, Smokescreen and Bumblebee bounced into the estate, screaming in pain. But they all looked up to see Arcee who was a sweaty mess, and Wheeljack who was covered in lint.
"Guy's! Soundwave's coming! Act natural!" Wheeljack yelled as Smokescreen and Bumblebee bandaged up their fingers and slipped on gloves. The problem was, Soundwave had a good eye, and he noticed that everything was out of place.
All of them went silent as Smokescreen sat down where his chess game board was trying to lift up his cup and everyone heard a loud *crack.* Wheeljack sat on the couch, Arcee stood there holding her broom, and Bumblebee had nowhere to go so he just stood in the middle of the room while trying to look casual.
Soundwave stepped in with a small smile on his face.
"Well, you look happy. Did she kiss you?" Wheeljack asked as Arcee's heart broke, again.
Soundwave chuckled. "No. I got something better than a… Kiss."
But then his head snapped toward Bumblebee and Smokescreen. "What happened to your fingers?"
Smokescreen coughed uncomfortably as Bumblebee started sweating.
"Wolves!" Bumblebee yelled.
"Fire!" Smokescreen yelled, but then winced in pain at the cracking noise of his bandages wrinkling. It was a noise that Soundwave clearly heard.
Arcee and Wheeljack glanced at Smokescreen who shrugged. Once again, there was another loud cracking noise, courtesy of Bumblebee's bandages.
Soundwave cocked his head. "And what happened to the door? The last time I checked, it was a lot smaller. Everything is out of place here." They all watched nervously as Soundwave inspected the place.
"Smokescreen, Bumblebee, show me your hands," Soundwave said as he looked at the two boys who had their hands behind their backs.
"Do you really want to see them?" Bumblebee asked.
"Yes," Soundwave said, emotionless.
"Like, do you really have to see them to where the universe depends on it and if you don't see them then you feel like you're going to die?" Bumblebee said quickly, only to get stares from Wheeljack and Arcee.
"Show me your hands," Soundwave said in dark tone. Smokescreen and Bumblebee meekly walked up to Soundwave as the butler took off their gloves. "Did wolves and fire do this? Or were you two just nailing the door?" he demanded.
"How did he..?." Bumblebee asked trailing off.
"So," Wheeljack started in an effort to save the two boys from Soundwave's fury "How was your hot date?"
1 Hour and 15 Minutes earlier
Soundwave was on a hill with a picnic blanket snacking on a brand of grapes called "Priscilla Grape," He was looking through binoculars, laughing at the state everyone was in back at the estate.
Soundwave told them all what he was doing, and Arcee's heart mended. "Wait, so that is why you were smiling," Wheeljack said out loud.
"Yes," Soundwave said blankly. "But thank you."
"For what?" Arcee asked in a soft tone.
Soundwave smiled. "I have never laughed that hard in years!" he said as he laughed while walking up to his bedroom, leaving the others stunned.
