Burning Rubber

Wow! I'm back again so soon! Anyways, I've came up with another story that I hope goes pretty well. I've been needing to gather up most of this story in my head to I can write it. And now I've finally got it all together. I must warn you that while this is in the Prime Universe, Jazz's design is from the movies. Hope you all enjoy. By the way, I don't know if the title fits very well, but I tried.


Chapter 1: Jailed

Cybertron...no war...

Kaon nights weren't pleasant. Some nights, the residents would hear the sounds of tires burning out and loud engines. Enforcers would be out patrolling close areas. They would growl at the noises that they were forced to get used to. Normally the racers would be troublemakers that spread havoc around. But there was always one certain mech who could only be seen racing out in the desert. The yellow car zooms around gathering up a bunch of dirt. Performing stunts as he goes up banks and drifts around tight turns. This Urbana 500 was not much of a troublemaker as he preferred to be alone. This didn't seperate him from the other delinquents, but they wondered why he only joined dirt race competitions. He usually won but it depends on the types of mechs he races against. A police car was always adventuring towards the same desert spying on the mech. Now the enforcer knew this mech, but they didn't get along very well. The yellow and black mech always tried to stay as far away as possible. The enforcer has chased him a few times but he always got away. The enforcer just watched as the yellow mech made a few more turns then stopped.

"Ugh!" The mech growled as he noticed the enforcer.

The youngster turned around to face the direction of the road that faced town. He rolled a bit forward and the enforcer moved a bit closer. The young mech knew it was time to run...again! He screeched his tires and took off with the enforcer tailing him. The way back was long which the enforcer was happy about. He sped up nearly bumping the Urbana 500. The young mech sped up wanting to get away. Finally after another bump to the rear, the mech screeched his tires to turn around and the enforcer stopped just in time.

"What do you want?" The racer snarled revving his engine.

"I see you around too much, always coming out here tearing up the roads!" The mech said revving his own engine.

"What's it matter to you Prowl?" The mech growled rolling a bit further.

"You're not that fast Bumblebee! You think you are, but face it, you're slow!" Prowl said rolling up also.

"Why don't we transform and then you say that to my face!" Bumblebee said as they did so.

Bumblebee and Prowl stared into each other's optics. The tension was rising. A flash flew by Prowl's yellow visor.

"You plan on doing something about it?" Prowl said.

"Leave me alone! I'm not doing anything wrong! Why don't you just mind your own business, and let me throw up some dirt every once in a while?" Bumblebee snarled and actually tried to push Prowl back with a hand.

"Silly Bumblebee, always thinking your the best! Why race around when you're no good at it?" Prowl snarled poking Bumblebee in the chest.

"LISTEN YOU-"

"FINISH THAT SENTENCE I DARE YOU!"

Bumblebee was enraged. He clenched one fist and was trying to force it up. Prowl was waiting for Bumblebee to start a fight...but he had another idea. Bumblebee did in fact shove Prowl harshly and raised a fist. Prowl lunged at Bee, blocked the incoming fist and punched Bee in the chest hard. Bumblebee bent forwards giving Prowl the chance to grab Bee's neck.

"Listen you delienquent runt, if you think your so fast and strong, then I challenge to a race!" Prowl said.

Bumblebee recovered from the blow and growled.

"You? Race me? Heh, you would totaly lose!" Bumblebee said.

"Try me!" Prowl smirked as another flash went across his visor.

He released Bee who stood back a bit. Prowl looked past him to see that the town was still far away. Then he walked back to Bee.

"From here, to the police station!" Prowl challenged.

"Alright then, and I will win!" Bumblebee said.

"If you win, I'll leave you alone for a month, if I win, you're going to jail!" Prowl smirked.

"What? Jail? Are you nuts?" Bumblebee said loudly. "For how long?"

"Till I say so!" Prowl smirked.

Bumblebee growled again but took the challenge. They transformed and lined up.

"3...2...1...GO!" Prowl yelled.

Both mechs squealed their tires and raced down the road gathering up dust. Bumblebee was determined not to go to jail. Something seemed off about Prowl. Why now was he threatening to put Bee in jail. And why a race? They were both tied at the moment and their engines were very loud.

"Give up Bumblebee! I'm putting you in jail where you belong!" Prowl said.

"Not while I still function!" Bee said.

Just then, a silver Pontiac caught up with them but sped past them! Somehow, Bumblebee thought he knew him from somewhere. The silver mech also thought Bee looked familiar. But in the end, the mech sped on.

"A speeder! Actually, 2 speeders!" Prowl said blaring his sirens.

"HEY THAT'S DISTRACTING!" Bee said as the siren caught him off guard making him swerve.

"Too bad! Now you and that mech are going behind bars!" Prowl said activating his nitrous to speed ahead of the mech.

"What the frag?" The mech said as Prowl rammed him popping his back left tire.

The mech spun out of control and flipped over causing him to transform...right in front of the police station. Bumblebee had lost. The silver mech growled.

"WHAT THE FRAG WAS THAT?" He yelled.

"You're under arrest!" Prowl said coming towards him.

"For what?" The mech said as Prowl forced some cuffs onto the mech's sharp claws.

"Speeding, duh! And so is that mech!" Prowl said pointing to Bumblebee who transformed.

"YOU CHEATED!" Bee snarled.

"So what!" Prowl said as two enforcers came out of the building to take them in.

Bumblebee gave him a angry stare as he was led in. He couldn't exactly tell who was that mech mainly because of the silver visor he wore over his optics. There actually weren't any other prisoners in the building. Just them. Bumblebee was taken into a cell first, but the other mech was taken away for questioning. Bumblebee sighed, all that was in there was a berth...two berths. He sat on one and stared at the floor. He hoped he would get out soon. About 15 minutes later, the enforcers brought back the mech and shoved him into the cell slamming the door. The mech fell on the floor and got up wiping his shoulders. Bumblebee was actually angry at the mech, because of him, Prowl cheated. But he couldn't tell what the mech was feeling because of the visor. The mech sat on the other bed and tapped his sharp claws together. That's when the arguement started.

"I bet you feel pretty proud of yourself!" Bumblebee said glaring at the mech.

"What are you talking about?" Them mech said back.

"Thanks to you, Prowl cheated on our race and he won! If I would've won that, I wouldn't be in here." Bee said.

"It's not my fault, it's Prowl's for chasing me!" The mech said.

"Oh just admit!"

"I'm not admitting nothing!"

"Why? You're afraid, so you keep that visor hiding your optics?" Bee teased but he didn't know how much he just angered the mech.

"Oh now you're talking about my visor?" The mech snarled, leaped from the berth and ran at Bee.

Bumblebee didn't have time to react as the mech pounced on him and slashed his face. Bumblebee punched the mech in the mouth knocking him back. Bee went in for another punch but the silver mech ducked and sent a hard uppercut to Bumblebee's chin strong enough to make Bee fall on his back but Bee pulled the mech down with him. The two begin wrestling around on the ground for at least 5 minutes before they ceased when Bumblebee hit the back of his head on his own berth. The mech pounced on him again and raised a fist aiming for Bee's left optic. Bumblebee and the mech looked at each other. Bee was confused. Did he see this mech before? The mech was asking himself the same thing. The fist was still up but it didn't move.

"Hold on, hold on, why do I seem to know you?" Bee asked.

"I don't know, but...you look like someone I knew years ago!" The mech said and actually lifted his visor for a better look.

That's when the mech gasped and smirked.

"Oh no! I remember you dude! Now I know!" The mech laughed putting his visor back on.

Bumblebee got up and looked at the silver mech. He squinted his optics.

"I'm sorry but...mabye a few hints would work!" Bee said.

"Bumblebee, you should remember! I was your first friend, your only friend at the time with claws!" The mech said and tapped Bee's chest.

"I accidently gave you that claw mark right there when we were just wrestling around as kids!" Jazz said tapping it.

Bumblebee's optics brightened instantly.

"Jazz! It's actually you!" Bee said.

Jazz lifted his visor and smiled.

"You know it!" Jazz said as they hugged.

To be continued...

So, what do you think? I believe this is a good start! This may be a spoiler but they will get out of jail possibly the next chapter. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter and please review. No bad reviews!
