Ms Witwicki isn't amused, not at all. Her son was released from the hospital ten minutes ago, a cervical collar at his neck and a cast around is left wrist, and the last person-or robot, or whatever- she wanna see is that giant semi-trailer truck, that Optimus Prime, in the hospital park.
Before Optimus can says anything, she start: "What you want from my son? Wasn't enough what you did to him? It's all your fault if he was in this hospital!"
She can feels Ron's hand around her arm, trying to keep her calm, and Sam was trying to justify the Bot, but she doesn't care, she have to speak her mind.
"You promised he will be safe, that Bumblebee will keeps him safe, and now he have a wrist broke and a whiplash and where is Bumblebee now?"
"Ms Witwicki... I'm sorry, Bumblebee did his best to keep Samuel safe, and I'm here to ask Sam if he want to... came... and s-s-say g-goodbye to his guardian..." Sam'd never ears Prime so distraught, and for a moment he doesn't understand what he means... But after... " what do you mean with 'say goodbye'? He's ok, right? He was dents but he spoke with me, he was fine when I left, he told me he was fine, tell me he's fine!" He's hysteric by the end...
"Sam, I'm sorry, he's spark chamber was c-cracked in the incident... Ratchet is doing his best, but he said Bee is not going to s-s-survive to this night... He's going to perform a experimental procedure, but there are no guaranties, so probably you should says ... goodbye... ... "
Sam eyes are fiiled of tears now, and Judy's protectives instinct kicks in, and she is ready to chew the Big Bot, but one military, that she didn't notice before (she believe he's called Lennox, but she wasn't sure), stop her saying: "Ma'am, please, your son is bruised but fine, his... son... He is dying, Bumblebee is dying, and his father is here to ask to your son to come and see him before is too late, because he knows it's important for both Sam and Bee, can you understand?"
She sigh, as a mother she could emphatize with the other father, and from the looks on the military face, she suppose he have a son or a daughter himself.
She help his son to the truck, following him inside and fasten her and her' son seatbelts, before she hug him and try to comfort the teenager.
When they arrive, Sam is shocked: when he left Bee to go to the hospital, the Camaro looked dented, but fine... now, in his bipedal form, on that berth with all that wires and machines around, with the pale paint and the fading optics, he looks terrible.
Ratchet and Mikaela look drained as they keep working around Bee and a littler berth on a side.
Ratchet says something to Mikaela, and the girl stops what she is doing and came to Sam.
"Sam, I'm sorry I didn't came to see you at the hospital, I just felt like I can be more useful here, you know?"
"I know, are you ok? How is Bee doing?"
She sigh "let's talk in front of a caffe." She lead him and his family in the cafeteria of the NEST basis, and when everyone was settled, she start:" He is in stasis, that means he cannot feels the pain, is like a coma... But his spark is fading, he has too many leaks of energon, and we cannot fix him before his spark give up... "
" Optimus said something about a experimental procedure?"
" There was a experimental project, called 'operation chameleon', they were preparing human bodies to host temporarily Autobot sparks, to allow them to walk between humans like humans... As I said, it should be temporarily, and they should go back in they real body when they need it. Fortunately, Bee's body was almost ready, it's a little younger than what it should be, but it can works. Now our hope is that his spark his strong enough for the transfers... He will not be able to go back in his real body, and we need to p find a more permanent solution, but by now is our only hope to save him..."
"Mikaela, you are telling me he will have a human body, right?"
"Yes, if the procedure succeeds, Bee will have a human body... He will needs a lot of help to deals with that, especially since he will end up in a teenager body..."
"Talking of that" Ron intervenes, "Do you said that it will be 'younger'? What do you mean with ' younger'?"
"Well, if he was human, he should be 17 years old, but his body grown only till his 13"
A beep interrupt Mikaela, she checks her cell phone and after she just gives them an apologetic look:" I should go, I'm sorry...we are starting the procedure now... Please wait there, I will let you know something as soon as possible..."
