Treasure Hunter

The planet is small compared to others on its system but it managed to create a perfect atmosphere for life. The plant life of the planet is large and carnivorous, able to sense moving creatures and position them to eat. This trait made the animal's perfect tacticians and better camouflaged. However, none of this mattered to the Decepticon femme that is traversing this planet; in her spider form she quickly went past obstacles in the vast wilderness towards a single large tree that is said to hold nectar to cure anything.

The femme neared the tree and paused gathering her breath before climbing up and a few times using her webs to get through. When she reached the top she transformed back into her bie-pede form and carefully walked forward. In the center of the tree is dark violet liquid flowing from the veins of the tree into the center of a large pool, the femme breath hitched.

"So the legends are true." She mumbled and stepped forward towards the liquid, "One drop can cure anything, ten can make you immune to diseases, a gulp can make wounds heal faster than a predicon, and an entire cup can make you immortal." She repeated the song and when she blinked there is another 'bot there. A small mech with yellow and black and bright blue optics staring up at her with narrowed optics; "where did you-"she didn't even finished her sentence when he raised one of his servos and electricity was fire at her and knocking her off the large tree.

Blackarachnia fell towards the ground and was only saved by the tree branch that caught her before she came even close to a group of small flowers with open maws. The hybrid ventilated heavily and looked up towards the top of the tree with wide optics. Her chassis is rising and falling in panic before she managed to get her breathing under control. She then glared at the top and transformed into her spider form and made her way all to the top again. This time to didn't reveal herself and instead watched the 'bot.

By the design on the armor he is a mini-bot that hasn't reached adulthood, there were no insignia's on him so he must be a neutral and possibly the only resident on this planet. Blackarachnia quietly got up and then shot her webs onto one of the top branches. When the mini-bot turned around there was no one there. He narrowed his optics and stepped forward to look closer at the disturbed leaves. He tilted his horned helm and looked around the possible hiding spots. This was when the femme attacked from above and the mini-bot barely avoided the two stingers that rested on her back. Rolling away and standing up he faced his opponent.

Electricity sparked on his servos when he flexed his fingers and the femme hissed at him to reveal her fangs. The two circled each other, neither of them allowing another a single opening; both of them thinking and calculating their moves carefully. The femme moved first, shooting her webs from her wrist and the mechling dodged and charged towards her. Blackarachnia barely moved to avoid the electricity but when the mini-bot optics widened the femme took the opportunity to kick him on his chassis.

The mechling shifted back in order to dodge but the pede landed on his chassis and caused his spark to flicker. The yellow mechling ventilated a gasp at the sudden pain and the next thing he knew he was on the ground with the spider femme on top of him. The mini-bot only glared at the trespasser and looked deeply into her four red optics of a 'con. Blackarachnia ventilated heavily from the energy she has exerted and dapped her clawed digit on the dented chassis with an amused smile.

"Need better armor to protect yourself with kiddo." She said and the mechling continued to narrow his optics at her with a deep frown. "You can speak right? Or do you speak in Morse?" she asked curiously.

"I am capable of speech." The mechling said, "You are trespassing 'con, there is no power or weapon here that can assist you." This made Blackarachnia tilts her head a little, "This place may be isolated but enough of all sides have come here for the same thing; I protect this large tree and it contents from those who wish to abuse it."

"So what, you're raised for this by your parents?" This made the mechling smirk slightly.

"I was not born by the means you know; the tree created me with the purpose of protecting it – nothing more or less." He looked at her and once again frowned, "I am called Bumblebee by the residence here." He answered the unasked question.

"Sure look like a little Goldbug." Blackarachnia commented and looked over the mechling once more. A few moments have passed and the mechling haven't thrown her off of him yet.

"How did you survive the fall?"

"A branch with a lot of leaves caught me before I went splat on the ground. Then I climb my way back up here." This made to mechlings optics widen.

"The tree saved you?" the question was more to himself as he tilts his helm towards the large organic specie as if listening in to answer the questions he harbors. Blackarachnia was confused before she was thrown off by the smaller mech and she got up ready to fight. The mechling paid her no mind as he picked the fallen leaves from in between his armor and turned to face her. "I now understand why you have fared better than all others that have come here to drink the trees nectar." He waved his servo to the large glowing lake. "The trees deemed you worthy of its healing, drink now and leave." Blackarachnia narrowed her optics and wondered if this was a trap, she then slowly walked to the glowing waters and kneeled down. Her ventilation system hitched when she used her hands to scoop the healing waters.

Carefully saying her prays to Primus she drank the handful in one setting and sat there waiting. Then a burning sensation started in her chassis before spreading throughout her form. Blackarachnia screamed as she felt her body bloat just like the first time she became this horrid breed of inorganic and organic. She struggled to ventilate the breaths and felt a part of her die. It felt like it lasted for hours before she returned to the world with a clear mind and body free of pain.

Slowly sitting up she leaned over the waters to see her reflections has returned to Autobot Elita-One. Coolant rushed into her optics and she felt so much happiness and relief, "Do not taint the healing water with your tears." Bumblebee's voice caught her attention and she quickly got up and looked at the mech; the mini-bot stood at attention and watched her every move before he glances at the opening on the other side to see the massive landscape.

"The tree has cured you; now leave." Bumblebee said and turned to face the opening as she approached him. She leaned in a little towards the mini-bot before whispering to him.

"Thank you." Then she placed a kiss on his cheek. The mechling optics widens and he flushed a dark blue but managed to avert his gaze and keep the rest of his features natural. Elita-one giggled and left to her ship to go back to Cybertron. When the femme left Bumblebee finally relaxed and allowed the blush to overtake his face; lifting one digit he placed it on his cheek and smiled for the first time in vorns.

O.O

I'm so sorry for such a late update! I had to go into surgery to realign my collarbone that i broke during wrestling practice and couldn't do anything because of the drugs and pain! Then I had to catch up on my school work to make sure i didn't fail the semester and i was crying because of being a failure and just managed to get the work sustainable in order to post this up. Next Friday (hopefully) i will post another one that is a little longer than this work. Again so sorry and i hope you enjoy this one-shot that I written.

Thanks for the helpful and encouraging reviews!
