Chapter 1
"Bulk." The young girl called. "Bulk!"
"Where is he" she pondered. She was quite young, very slim. Her hair a mix of pink and black, she wore a pink T-shirt and a blue over shirt and matching skirt with black tight and black boots with pink laces.
She scoured the Autobot base looking for Bulkhead, as she turned the corner she saw it, towering over her was the infamous Starscream. Humongous, the flickering lights of the base reflecting off of his grey chrome paint work. His missiles aim straight ahead however he was not looking at her but at the hulking titan behind her. Bulkhead, huge with a dark green amour stood behind here.
"You will die this day Autobot is you don't tell me. Where. Is. PRIME!" Yelled Starscream, his optics flared
Bulkhead laughs "You really thing I'm going to tell a no good Con." He sneered as he saw Starscream servos twitch and then he frowned.
The missile flew a direct course into Bulkhead's chest right between the headlights. His body jerked and then fell a gaping hole where the missile struck.
A sneer stretched across Starscream's face.
"Noooooooooooo" Miko screamed, tears streamed down her face "Bulk, no, Bulk."
"Starscream you bastard, I'll kill you for this, I will have my revenge."
Starscream looked directly at Miko, his optics focused, as if targeting for an attack.
"And now for you" He said while manically laughing
His servo armed and directed at her, as he continued to howl with laughter, Miko screamed and began to run. But it was too late the projectile hit the ground right behind her. The explosion rocked the base and it sent Miko flying into the wall.
Miko jumped up out of bed. She looked to her left and saw the familiar figure of Raf, the youngest, and on her right, Jack the oldest. She gave a heavy sigh but was relieved that it was a dream; Bulkhead was her Autobot partner and her best friend, she couldn't bear if anything happened to him.
As the sun rose the kids awoke.
"Jack, I had a terrible dream about Bulk" Miko said in a worried tone
"What was it about?" Jack asked, wiping his eyes as the adjusted to the sunlight.
Jack was a tall boy in his teens; he was the leader of the human partners of the Autobot. He wore a brown T-shirt with white sleeves, with jeans and trainers. He rubbed his black hair as he waited for Miko to answer.
"Starscream terminated Bulk." She said cutting through tears
"Miko its ok, Bulkhead's ok, just go and look for yourself" Jack said, patting her on the back
"Plus you know that after Optimus sliced Megatron through the spark with the Star saber, the bots destroyed all of the Decepticons."
"Yeah except Starscream." Miko retorted with malice in her voice
"You know since the Cons defeat that no-one seen Starscream for years, he's probably off-world"
"Yeah, I guess your right let's go find the others." She said perking up
As they walk to the main hall, they heard the whirring noise of the space bridge powering down. They looked around; they saw Raf sitting on the steps messing with his laptop. Ratchet was standing next to the space bridge controls. Miko and Jack walked over to Ratchet.
"Where is everyone?" Jack quizzed Ratchet
"Please, I don't have time for this, kindly sit over there"
He pointed to the balcony to his right. Ratchet was a grumpy Autobot with a white and orange paint-job, resembling an ambulance. He was Team Prime's Medic.
"Ratchet, we just wanted to know where they went." Miko pleaded
"Fine, Fine." Ratchet sighed. He turned to face Miko and Jack "Optimus and Bumblebee went to scout for Energon. Arcee and Smokescreen were on patrol but they have gone off-world to look for any surviving Autobots an…"
"What about Bulk." Miko interrupted
"I was getting to that." Ratchet spat, his annoyance in his voice was clear. "Bulkhead is following up a lead. It seems that Starscream may have resurfaced one Earth and Bulkhead has gone to see if these rumours are true."
"No, not Starscream, it can't possibly be him." Miko gasped and ran out of the room
"What is wrong with Miko?" Ratchet asked a puzzled look on his face.
"Miko head a strange dream that Bulk was killed by Starscream" Jack replied, looking in the direction in which she ran. After a few minutes he followed on.
Bulkhead peered around the corner his blaster ready he strained his optics to see through the mist. He brought his hand to his audio receptor where his com-link was.
"Ratchet, come in Ratchet." He whispered
"What is it Bulkhead?" Ratchet's voice crackled with static as he spoke
"There's nothing here, I can't see anything." Bulkhead said as he squinted
"Hold position, we cannot afford to ignore this." Ratchet commanded
Then Bulkhead saw something in the corner of his optics, a shadow moving swiftly through the dense mist.
"Hang on Ratchet; I just saw something I'm gonna investigate." Bulkhead whispered; shifting his body in the direction he saw the shadow.
"Proceed with caution. If it is Starscream, he could be very unpredictable with makes him very dangerous."Ratchet advised
"Will do; keep com silent until I'm clear. Over and out." Bulkhead ended and switched of com
Bulkhead crept slowly, clinging to the wall. His servo joints creaking and grinding.
Suddenly he saw the shadow it stopped just in front of him. He crept ever closer only inches away.
Then the shadow spun around, a thin arm outstretched. It hurtled towards Bulkhead and struck him across the cheek. The blade-like fingers scraping his face like fingernail down a chalkboard, leaving four deep scratches on Bulkhead cheek. He recoiled and fell backward. The figure still shrouded by mist stamped on his chest, the stiletto heel piercing it.
As the heel retracted, a stream of Energon leaked out of the wound. Bulkhead held in his cries of pain. A long finger reached down and wiped the Energon form Bulkhead's chest. As the hand rose Bulkhead strained his neck and saw the face of his attacker. It was a face that he could never forget
"Scrap!" Bulkhead cried
"Scrap is right, Autobot" sneered a sinister voice "You're in a whole world of trouble now."
As the figure laughed manically it was clear the Bulkhead was in terrible danger and at the mercy of Starscream.
