Bumblebee woke up to the sound of someone entering his room, he slowly opened his optics to see Sari, a red-headed techno organic, looking him in the face. "SARI!" Bumblebee screamed as he shot up from where he was laying. "What are you doing here?" He asked trying to pretend he wasn't just scared out of his wits. "I wanted to tell you I got this cool new game." Sari said. "Lets go try it out then!" said the excited Bumblebee. When they exited the room Optimus prime was waiting. "Bumblebee I need you to do a patrol of the city, recently there has been reports of things going missing from stores and houses." Bumblebee sagged his shoulders at that remark. "Guess I wont be playing that game Sari..." Bumblebee told Sari with an apoligetic look. He then transformed into his car form and sped off. "Ugh, now I have to play this game alone!" Sari said sounding a bit upset. Optimus then left to patrol the city borders.
Sari was used to being alone but this time it was different, a little creepy... Sari's thoughts were interupted when the electricity went out. Sari started to hear something that sounded like muffled footsteps. Sari looked behind her just in time to see the cause of the footsteps, there standing in front of her was Blackarachnea. Shortly after Sari recognized the intruder everything went black
Bumblebee zoomed through the city, trying to get this patrol done as fast as possible. He wanted to get back to base so he could play the new game Sari got. Suddenly Bumblebee got a transmission from Optimus Prime "Bumblebee you need to meet us near the docks, something is making Sari loose control of her robot form." Bumblebee got a little worried hoping Sari was ok, he replied to Optimus as he made a quick turn heading towards the docks. "Got it boss-bot, I'll be ther soon."
When he reached the docks he saw all 4 bots and the red headed techno organic, who was spinning around crazy shooting beams everywhere. "What's going on?" Bumblebee asked as he joined his fellow bots. "Someone put a chip in her chest making her loose control." Rachet said. "We need to stop her before she damages something." Prowl commented right as Bumblebee noticed something in the corner of his optic"Whats in those boxes over there?" He said pointing to 3 giant boxes. Optimus looked over to what Bumblebee was pointing at, he quickly got worried when he noticed what it was. "Dynamite..." Optimus said. "We need to stop her if she does anything to those boxes, she'll be blown to bits." He continued. He was a bit shocked when he saw Bumblebee's face quickly showing signs of worry.
Bumblebee gasped as he saw Sari going full speed toward the boxes with her blades extended. He knew that if he didn't do something quick Sari would be killed. Optimus noticed bumblebee turn into car form, and realized what he was going to do. "Bumblebee!" He yelled but it was too late the yellow bot already zoomed towards Sari. Right as he got near Sari he transformed into bot form. Sari immediatly stopped, and at first to Optimus everything seemed perfectly fine. That is until Optimus noticed one of Sari's blades straight through Bumblebee's chest.
Sari looked up realizing the sacrifice her bestfried had just made. "Bum-ble-bee?" She started to sob. Bumblebee just looked up warily, barely making out the words "Don't be mad..." Refore he flew backwards landing on one of the boxes. "Rachet, quickly examin Bumblebee!"
Optimus yelled. "Prowl get the chip off Sari while she's standing still!" He added. As soon as
Prowl got the chip off Sari ran towards Bumblebee, sobbing. She got there right as Rachet started whispering something to Optimus Prime. "Bulkhead take Sari home." Optimus ordered. "What about Bumble-" Bulkhead started to say but was cut off by Optimus Prime "That's an order!"
Bulkhead took Sari and started to head off "Do you think he'll be ok?" Sari asked in a whimper. "Yeah, he's a strong bot..." Bulkhead said not wanting to upset Sari. "Will you tell me once he's concious again?" Sari continued. "S-sure..." Bulkhead told her reasuringly but wasn't too positive wether his little buddy would even be concious again.
"Is there anything we can do?" Optimus asked. "The only thing is if we get Sari's key charged..." Rachet answered. "What if he can't come back online?" Optimus questioned upset. "Then we'd have to throw him a funeral... It's a shame, wasn't his time to go." Rachet answered once again looking down at the young lifless bot, they call Bumblebee. "I don't think we should tell Sari at least not until we get the key recharged." Prowl interupted. "That would be a good idea" Optimus said.
************************************************************* The next day Sari came in looking a bit upset. "Hey, guys..." She said to the autobots, "Look i'm sorry, for everything that happened... when I was here alone yesterday Blackarachnea came, she's the one who put the chip on me..." The name Blackarachnea made Optimus stop for a second remembering her old identity as Elita, the bot he used to and still may have feelings for. He was snapped out of his thoughts when Sari asked a question that brought all the bots back to reality. "Where's Bumblebee?" She asked. Rachet lied saying "I just repaired him..." Sari started to walk towards the hallway "Okay I'll go see hime now." Sari said. Rachet quickly jumped in "He's in stasis mode won't be concious for a while." Sari looked a little confused with how awkward everyone was acting. "Okay, I'll just stay with him till he wakes." She said continuing to walk down the hallway. "Bumblebee's offline!" Bulkhead said as he jumped in front of Sari stopping her in her tracks. "What?" Sari said quickly running into the med bay where Bumblebee lay on a metalic bed, lifeless. Tears started pouring down Sari's eyes. "No..." She whispered. "Can't we do something!" She screamed. "The only thing that would work is your key but it needs to be recharged only you would know how to do that.." Optimus Prime said solemly. Sari just ran off crying. Optimus sighed and gathered the others, "Let's go through the city search for anything that can help bring Bumblebee back" Optimus said determined.
Sari ran and ran, she knew where she was heading, she was going to get the All spark she had a feeling it could help save Bumblebee. She finally ran into the room the All spark was held. She slowly walked towards the All spark which started to bright up a little. She picked it up and carefully brought it to where Bumblebee lay. At first the All spark did nothing, but then after she moved it closer to him the All spark lit up brightly everything started to shake, before she knew it everything went white. Rachet suddenly ran hearing all the commotion. "Whats going on?" He yelled. "I thought you left with the other's" Sari said avoiding the question. "I stayed behind," He noticed the All spark next to Bumblebee who was now starting to regain color. "What ever you did it worked," Rachet started to say "Go, I'm going to need time to work on Bumblebee alone. Also make sure to message Prime, tell him Bumblebee's back online."
************************************************************* Bumblebee slowly opened his optics to see his fellow team mates staring at him. He slowly got up, everywhere was aching. "What happened?" He asked warily rubbing his head. "You were offline for a week." Optimus said. Bumblebee suddenly remembered everything that happended. He looked over at Sari who was about to exit the room her shoulders slumped. "Sari? Where you going?" He asked confused. "I-I caused you to be offline...Aren't you mad at me?" She said holding back tears. "No, you didn't mean to, it was an accident. If you didn't have that chip in you none of that would've happened." Bumblebee said he guessed he cheered her up since she came back looking a bit reassured.
Bumblebee liked it when he cheered her up it made him feel special. He still wasn't sure why but lately Bumblebee felt weird when he was around Sari, something made him almost have an adreniline rush when he was around her and he felt a flutter in his chest. He may have to check out this glitch with Rachet. He was suddenly snapped out of his thoughts when Sari went to go move the All spark, the only problem was she was in robot form. "Sari I dont thinks that's a good idea while you're in robot form." Optimus said, but it was too late Sari had already picked the All spark and It started to shine, Sari let out a yelp of pain and instead of the half transformer half human, there stood Sari 100% transformer. "Too late... " Bulkhead stated. "What happened to me?" Sari asked. "The reaction between you touching the already running All spark in robot mode caused you to turn fully into a transformer." Rachet explained. "Wow..."Bumblebee said stunned by Sari. Everyone stared at Bumblebee curious about his remark but he was lost deep in thought.
Optimus, Rachet, and Prowl left, leaving Sari, Bulkhead, and Bumblebee in the medicine bay. Sari transformed, curious to see if she could still be human. Relief flushed over her as she noticed she was in her human form "Well at least I can still transform into a human." She said, she was actually quite excited that she was now fully an autobot. "Wait turn back to your autobot form." Bumblebee said. Without question Sari turned back into her transformer form. Bumblebee got to his feet as fast as he could, which wasn't that fast given his state, "Phew, I thought you might be taller than me." Bumblebee said comparing his height with Sari's new height. Bumblebee and Sari where exactly the same height. "Now you have to share the title as smallest autobot!" He said with a smirk on his face. "Hey!" she said. They both started laughing.
"Bumblebee, you sure you should be standing, you were just offline and all..." Bulkhead said staring at Bumblebee who was starting to loose his balance. "Yeah, i'm su-" Bumblebee went to say but was cut off as he fell on the floor. Sari giggled a little at this. Bulkhead picked Bumblebee and put him back on the metal bed. "Maybe you should stay put, recharge or something." Bulkhead told Bumblebee. "I don't want to stay put that would be too boring!" Bumblebee said in protest. "Sorry little buddy, but it seems you're not in good enough shape to do anything at the momment." Bulkhead replied to Bumblebee's protests. Bumblebee let out an irritated groan "Why am I the one who always gets restricted?" he mumbled to himself even though he knew the answer, he never thought things through, he took to many risks, and he rarely followed orders. "I'm gunna recharge." Bumblebee said. "Haven't you recharged enough?" Sari asked confused. "It's better than being bored out of my mind!" Bumblebee said stubbornly. Sari just nodded in responce as she left the room with Bulkhead tagging along.
