Chapter 1: Invitation

The sun was slowly going down, bathing the base in orange and pink light. Empty was the perfect place to build the Autobot's base; it was shielded from humans by being in the middle of a vast desert, and the human's military forces had hidden it from GPS systems and maps. They were literally invisible.

Optimus Prime let out a loud sigh, continuing his walk around the inside of the base. All of the other Autobots were either recharging or retreating to their recharge beds. Optimus' footsteps echoed in the tinny hall as he paced slowly, each footstep thudding. Maybe he'd go for a drive. There were few things that were as great as transforming and tearing down the highways and sand dunes, his engine working hard to meet his demand for speed.

He walked around a corner and was quite surprised to nearly flatten his comrade Bumblebee. The two collided with a loud thunk, knocking Bumblebee over onto the ground. Optimus shook his head, staggering backwards at the force of an autobot running full speed colliding into him, shaking his head again to clear his unfocused optics.

"Bumblebee? What the heck are you doing, running down the halls so crazily?" Optimus spoke, giving him a questioning look.

"I was about to say the same to you, Optimus Prime." Bumblebee replied pushing himself off the floor. Wiping the dust off his knees he looked up at him."I was looking for you, really." Bee laughed, straightening out his spine. The golden autobot turned his head to look out one of the many windows in the hallway.

The hallway was very large, with a high ceiling that was several meters above Optimus Prime's head. Windows went from the floor to the ceiling and lined one wall of the whole hallway. On the other wall there were numerous doors leading to offices, recreation rooms, personal rooms and a bunch of other things that would be too long to list here. This was the core of the base, a large circle of rooms. In the center of the circle there was the communications room. The circle was surrounded by a large rectangular building, which was underneath it. Several staircases led down to that part of the base.

"I always find earth sunsets so beautiful. Anyway, where was I? Oh, yes, why I was here..." Bee said thoughtfully, turning to face Optimus. "Oh, yeah! Jazz broke out the high grade fuel in Rec Room C. He invited me and Ironhide over for a party. We're inviting everyone! It's time we had a party, right? Anyway, you're coming, right? I mean, you got to! It's going to be sooooo awesome! Please, Optimus?" Bumblebee said quickly, eyes pleading.

Optimus nodded, smiling at Bee. He hadn't been to a party for such a long time, being Prime was 24/7 and the responsibilities never stopped. Hey, what was wrong with taking a night off? He rarely had time for himself and his friends.

"Yeah, sure!" Optimus said, beaming at Bumblebee.

"Awesome! I'll race you there!" Bumblebee grinned back and turned on his heel. With a push of his ankle he rocketed off taking long strides. He glanced back, smirking. "I bet you can't beat me, old timer!" Bumblebee laughed, speeding up. Although Optimus wasn't that old (Ironhide was older) Bumblebee got on his nerves with all the "old timer" crap.

Optimus Prime laughed and ran after him. Long legs took even longer strides than Bumblebee, and he quickly caught up to him. Feet making loud booming noises on the metal floor as he ran. Being so tall had its perks, but it also meant he was really heavy, and it was hard to move on the metal floor without making loud noises. Optimus grabbed Bee's shoulders and vaulted over him in a leapfrog-like jump. Still laughing he hit the floor running, arms pumping in rhythm to his fast footsteps. He skidded to slow down quickly, sparks erupting from beneath his feet. Pushing off again he rocketed down the hallway and around a corner into Rec Room C.

"YOU FAT FART! YOU NEARLY FLATTENED ME!" Bumblebee shouted after Optimus. Optimus Prime was laughing like a maniac. He was bent over, clutching his middle. "Damn, Optimus, you are sooo heavy..." Bee croaked, rubbing his back. He heard the last remains of Optimus' madmanish laughter as he entered Rec Room C. If this was what he was like at the mention of a party, Bee wondered what he was like after several rounds of high grade and premium fuel.

Little did Bumblebee know Inviting Optimus Prime to the party on this night was probably the worst thing he could do.
