Detroit 1:42 AM, October 29th
The truck drivers eyes fluttered shut and then snapped open once again, he had been driving for hours at this point, having come from Chicago and having to cross through Detroit, running Oil across the states was his least favorite job but someone had to do it.
As he drove down the darkened and empty road outside of Detroit his mind wandered a bit remembering old tales of other truckers that he had heard over the years, from ghosts, to aliens, he had mostly scoffed at the tales of truckers who like him were probably half crazed from being so tired.
Still in the back of his mind he secretly wished that something like that would happen to him to at least break up the doldrums he found himself in.
The screech that filled the air alerted to him that his wish had come true.
2 Hours Later.
"Defiantly a Decepticon." Ratchet said glumly as he looked over the now burnt out remains of the drivers truck, behind him stood Optimus Prime and Bulkhead.
"Do you think it could have been the Constructicons again?" Optimus asked, remembering the Constructicons oil heists from almost a year ago and looked toward Bulkhead.
"I don't think so Boss bot, this doesn't look like something Scrapper and Mixmaster would do, they'd steal the struck sure but this," Bulkhead said looking at the overturned and burnt truck, ", must have been something else.
They had been called out after the explosion had rocked the nighttime serenity of Detroit, the driver had been injured but was being treated for shock while Prime had helped the firefighters put out the blaze.
Ratchet held up some of the metal and then showed them both what was on the other side. "These appear to be scratch marks from some kind of claws, deeper than the average scratches caused by crashing, and given that I can see claw marks on time, I say that our mystery con came from the air."
"Well, that narrows down our options." Optimus deadpanned and sighed. "So we have a mystery oil drinker stalking Detroit, better put everyone on alert."
"That's not all." Captain Fanzone said as he walked over getting the Autobots attention. "We got the truck driver in the hospital and he says that after he heard the screech he saw his worst nightmare unfold right before his eyes."
"So, what's that got to do with anything?" Ratchet asked. And Fanzone put a hand to his head. "Well let's see, how about the fact that he was wide awake the whole time and he swerved his truck and crashed it."
"Wait, so you're telling us that the guy somehow had a "dream" while awake?" Bulkhead asked and Fanzone gave a nod. "That seems to be the case."
Ratchet gave a sneer. "Doesn't sound like any kind of Decepticon I've heard of."
"Still we can't be too careful, after all if it's willing to attack a truck for oil then every Autobot and vehicle in Detroit is at risk." Optimus said and Bulkhead and Ratchet exchanged terrified looks.
Sumdac Tower 12:30 PM.
Bumblebee yawned as he pulled up to Sumdac Tower, since Prime, Ratchet and Bulkhead returned from the accident they had sent every Autobot on patrol late into the morning hours and as such Bee had only gotten a few hours in of his stasis nap before he rushed off to meet Sari.
"Someone sounds tired" Sari said as she walked out f the tower, a light jacket over her everyday outfit as she hopped into Bumblebee's passenger seat. "Late night?"
"Try early morning, an oil tanker got attacked by a Decepticon and prime had us running around all over Detroit till 8:00!" He said as he pulled out.
Sari leaned back and crossed her arms. "Was it the Constructicons?" She asked. "We haven't seen any of them besides Scrapper since that incident with Soundwave."
"According to Bulkhead no, and Ratceht thinks that it's some kind of airborne Decepticon, all I know is that it attacked an oil tanker that it wrecked drank the oil and took off."
Sari grinned. "Sounds like a vampire, that's perfect for this time of year!" She giggled and Bumblebee let out a small yelp and then a pause. "Wait I thought they drank blood."
"Human vampires drink blood, a Robot vampire would probably drink oil." Sari said in an as a matter of fact tone.
"Sounds more like a con who might be drunk to me." Bumblebee muttered.
"Well if it drinks Oil it could drink energon.." Sari said trailing off and Bumblebee snapped up a little. "Your joking right Sari?" He asked nervously and Sari looked up.
"I don't know Bee, but maybe we should focus on our current mission." She said. "Getting fabric for my costume." Sari said with a small grin. "Have you figured out what you want to be yet?"
"Umm….No." Bumblebee said looking down a bit. "What are you going as?" He asked but Sari waved a finger toward him.
"That's going to be a surprise." She said with a grin and Bumblebee sighed. "Why is it always a surprise with you?" He asked and Sari giggled. "It's more fun that way."
Bumblebee sighed as he sped off down the road. "I just hope that this time we don't have to deal with something like the last two years." He said.
"Don't say that Bee you'll jinx us Sari said and waved a finger toward Bee. "Besides last year you spent Halloween hauling Lugnut out of a crater."
"It was still terrible" Bee said with a shiver, though it was funny when he landed on Ratchet." Sari giggled as Bee turned a corner and toward a fabric store, unaware of what was lurking as he drove past an alleyway. As he passed a pair of blood red optics snapped open and a Decepticon walked toward the light, black and Grey with the same body type as Mindwipe except with a bat like head the Decepticon watched Bumblebee drive past. A wicked grin spread across it's lips reveling very sharp fangs.
The rumors were true about there being Autobots on this world, and soon he would feast!
