[Blah] Bumblebee 'talking'

'No...I can't let them get hurt!' thought an unknown cybertronian as it's optics flashed online inside a vast black space with a curious liquid. It didn't hesitate to turn into it's vehicle mode, riding the liquid up into the light above; but not knowing it was headed straight into a battle field.

"Bumblebee! These Insecticons have friends!" Smokescreen yelled to his friend as a warning but it wasn't needed...they were surrounded by 'cons. Pressed against each other's backs, they had their guns ready, just waiting to fire.

In front of Bumblebee was an approaching Shockwave, beside a grourp of Insecticons was Starscream.

"Well, well, what do we have here? This trap was originally for Optimus Prime but the coward's two prized younglings will do." Starscream smirked, continuing, "Put them in the stasis cuffs! We're taking them back to Megatron as gifts."

"That is most logical. Soundwave, requesting a groundbridge." said Shockwave. Moments later a few vehicons came through the green, swirling portal with chains.

"No way we're going with you Decepticreeps!" Smokescreen muttered as he quickly turned on his signature relic, the 'Phase Shifter'. "Bee, try to contact Ratchet! I'll make a distraction, so drive like you have con's are after you!" was all Smokescreen said, before he started to fight while Shockwave and Starscream were occupied with the arrivals.

[Wait! I can't just leave you here! Smoke!] Bumblebee bleeped urgently, shooting cons left and right.

"Thanks for the cover Bee, but we need backup! I can handle this, see? They can't even touch me!"

Smokescreen gave him a flashy grin and yelled, "Green means go!" The hesitant yellow and black youngling nodded in understanding, transforming into vehicle mode and sped away..but after he ran over a Vehicon first.

Starscream noticed the yelp from the roadkilled con and the younger Autobot speeding away into the forest nearby. "I'll retrieve the bug, Shockwave deal with the other one." he said but Shockwave didn't respond as he carefully observed Smokescreen, recording his movements with his un-moving optic.

"Did you hear me?!" the second in command whined annoyed. The scientist gave a slight, irritated nod, refusing to tear his optic away from the youngling. Transforming into jet mode, Starscream huffed and flew after the scout.

Smokescreen heard the takeoff and could only think of one word...'scrap.'

:[Ratchet! Can you hear me?! Ratchet we NEED HELP!]: Bumblebee buzzed, beeped and whirred into his communication link only to be met with static. 'I'm still out of range?!' He thought as sped towards the lake beyond the forest where he came from by a groundbridge. The last spot where they had any sort communication from base.

Noticing a familiar, unwanted jet circling in the distance, probably looking for him, from his mirror he went even faster, almost hitting a tree...like the seeker just did. Giggling quietly to himself, something else caught his attention. To his right he thought he saw a light, sky blue cloud was following him,beside him, riding the wind!

Doing a double take, the cloud was gone or was never there...weird.

Shaking his thoughts back in order he drove on, out of the aggravated seeker's range, in hope of reaching communication for help.

:[Smokescreen, are you okay so far?!]: Bumblebee

:[Uh, yeah, totally fine! Really! How's the back-up coming?!]: Smokescreen replied in a shaky voice trying to keep calm.

:[I'm almost there! Just hang on a little longer!]:

:[WHAT?! You're not there yet? Do you have a flat tire or something?!]:

:[My tires are fine! There's a forest remember?! I'm surprised I DON'T have a flat already, anyway I'm here!]:

:[Whoa...! Hurry Bee! Shockwave found out how to-zzzztttzzz]:

Bumblebee didn't bother to reply because to his relief, back-up was already there and looking for them.

"Bumblebee, what has been taking you and Smokescreen so long...?" the Autobot femme asked as she looked around for the other youngling. "Where's Smokescreen?"

[Fighting trouble, are the other's coming?]whirled Bee.

"Soon but not soon enough, where is he?" Arcee asked, transforming into her vehicle mode.

[Follow me! Hurry!] Bee bleeped as he sped back into the forest, wondering if his friend was still kicking the Decepticon's cans around.
