Chapter 1: Brotherly Love

Cybertron...no war...Prime Universe...

A young Bumblebee ran for his life. He seemed to be in a panic. He was running around a big house that he and his brother lived in. He ran through a hallway trying to reach the stairs. He stopped at the edge. He could hear footsteps getting closer and a shadow getting bigger in one of the rooms. Bumblebee sprinted down the stairs, falling down the last few, and running to hide somewhere in the living room. He heard the footsteps coming slowly down the stairs. Bumblebee was breathing hard and he clung to the side of the couch. His whimpers were silenced when the shadow reappears.

"Where are you Bumblebee? I'm not going to hurt you...severely!" The evil voice snarled.

Bumblebee took this chance to run and hide in a closet nearbye. He locked it and sat down waiting for the noise to be gone. He heard things being moved around and grunts being yelled out. One-by-one, the noise got closer and closer. Bumblebee began to pray to Primus as the noise seemed to stop right in front of the closet door. Just then, a sharp clawed servo is shoved through the space at the bottom of the door. It moved at different places and Bumblebee backed up and tried not to make a noise. Bumblebee's optics were wide-open. A small growl can be heard from behind the door. As the hand removed itself from inside, the doorknob can be seen turning. Bumblebee's fists clenched in terror.

"Bumblebee...I know you're in there!" Came the voice again. "Come on out and I may go easy on ya!"

Bumblebee stayed quiet. However, he had forgotten that the mech's claws could enter the key hole in the door. The mech did exactly that. Bumblebee cornered himself and squinted his optics. Suddenly, the mech forces the door open.

"SCRAP!" Bumblebee yelled wincing.

The mech growled deviously and cracked his knuckles.

"Alright Bumblebee, let's get this over with!" The mech said and advanced on Bee.

"NO! NO! LEAVE ME ALONE! AAAHHHH!" Bumblebee yelled.

As the mech lunged, Bumblebee ended up tackled and pinned down. Bumblebee winced and waiting for his pummeling. But amazingly, it never came! Bumblebee slowly opened his optics to see the mech trying to hold back a laugh. Bumblebee growled.

"BARRICADE! DON'T DO THAT! I HATE IT WHEN YOU DO THAT!" Bumblebee snarled shoving Barricade off of him who ended up bursting with laughter while trying to get up.

"Relax buggy, it was just a joke!" Barricade laughed as they exited the closet.

Barricade went to rest a servo on Bumblebee's shoulder who smacked it away in anger! Barricade was trying to stop laughing. Bumblebee turned around and shoved him. Barricade realized Bumblebee was now challenging him.

"Oh I see, looking for a fight?" Barricade said taking a step forward.

Bumblebee tackled Barricade starting a brawl that lasted for about 10 minutes. Bumblebee and Barricade were known to fight constantly. Some were serious while others were just for fun. However, this one was both. They usually keep score of who wins each fight. So far, Barricade had the most. But Bumblebee was catching up. After 10 minutes, Barricade had Bumblebee pinned down and in a head-lock.

"Tap out! TAP OUT!" Barricade demanded but Bumblebee refused.

"Make me!"

Barricade used his free arm and threatened to claw Bee's face.

"OW! SLAGGER! ALRIGHT ALRIGHT I GIVE UP!" Bumblebee yelled smacking his hand on the floor.

"I thought so!" Barricade said releasing him and getting up.

Bumblebee got up and rubbed his neck. Barricade shook his head.

"Told you to tap out!"

"Yeah, but that was too tight!"

"Well, that's another point for me!" Barricade said putting a claw mark on the scoreboard they had made.

"Whatever! I'm going back upstairs!" Bumblebee said angrily and walked back up the stairs.

"Wait for me little bro!" Barricade said following him up.

As they reached the hallway, Barricade tried to cheer him up.

"You shouldn't be so mad!" Barricade smirked. "It was just a joke, relax!"

"I can't relax with you chasing me around for no reason trying to scare me!" Bumblebee said. "I can't handle stuff like that!"

"You act like I'm going to kill you!" Barricade said placing his claws on his hips. Bumblebee copied him.

"Well, with the way you fight, I'm going to get decapitated." Bumblebee sneered.

"Bumblebee come on, I would never kill you. We're brothers, and we love each other. I want to protect you since you're younger. That's what brothers do!" Barricade said smiling and coming closer. Bumblebee was fully calmed down and wished he could smile back.

"I'm sorry, I just get...sometimes tired of you constantly trying to fight me at times I'm just not in the mood!" Bumblebee said.

"What's wrong?" Barricade asked concerned.

Bumblebee looked uneasy and looked away.

"Barricade...when you become old enough to be a cop, are you going to change?" Bumblebee asked.

"Change? What do you mean?"

"Well, I thought most enforcers become mean and fight-hungry! I didn't want you to, you know, become that way. I don't want you to get into fights or other trouble. I...would get worried and scared!" Bumblebee said rubbing one of his arms.

Barricade placed a servo on Bumblebee's shoulder and sighed. Bumblebee turned back to Barricade with tears in his optics.

"Bumblebee, we both don't know exactly what the future will hold. I don't want to get into fights either, but I won't just let someone beat on me. I don't know if my personality would change in the future. I hope it doesn't but you never know! And don't be worried, I will be able to take care of myself and you would be able to take care of yourself. We just have to hope for the best!" Barricade said softly.

Bumblebee nodded then hugged Barricade! Barricade hugged back and rubbed his brother's back.

"I love you Barricade!"

"I love you too...Bumblebee!"

To be continued...
