A/N: Hey, it's the second chapter of Return of a hero. Hope you enjoy.

Prowl rushed over to Ratchet. He picked the medic up and placed him on a spare operation table. Optimus was still in the room, but his spark was beginning to give up. Prowl ran back to the others. Perceptor walked over to Prowl.

"Prowl, what's wrong, did Ratchet yell at you?" asked Perceptor.

"No, he's lost too much Energon and Optimus' spark is beginning to fail," said Prowl.

Wheeljack and Perceptor rushed in with First Aid and locked the doors behind them. Prowl's legs refused to hold him and he fell to his knees, panting heavily. Jazz knelt down next to him and rubbed his back to comfort him. Prowl shut his optics.

"Come on Prowler, everything's gonna be alright," said Jazz. "Let's go get some recharge before you glitch up or worse."

Jazz took Prowl back to their quarters. Bumblebee got worried. Turmoil came out of his quarters and yawned. Bumblebee picked him up and sat down. Turmoil looked sleepy and rubbed his optics.

"Turmoil, why aren't you in bed recharging?" asked Bumblebee.

"I had a nightmare that daddy died and Ratchet was nearly dead from trying to save daddy," said Turmoil.

"Don't worry Sweetspark, it was only a dream. You're fine now, your daddy won't die. Not when he has you and your sisters to love and take care of," said Bumblebee.

Turmoil fell asleep and Bumblebee did too. The others waited and First Aid came out. He looked at the sleeping two and turned to the others. Ironhide stepped forward and stood in front of the medic.

"Optimus has flat lined. We can't get him back this time," said First Aid.

"Wait did you say 'this time'. Are you saying that he flat lined before this time?" asked Huffer.

"That's exactly what I'm saying Huffer," snapped First Aid.

"What about Ratchet?" asked Ironhide.

"He will live. He has overworked himself too long this time. Not refueling is bad enough for his health. He'll recover and wake up in about 5-12 earth weeks," said First Aid. "You can see Optimus now in you wish. I'll inform Bumblebee when he wakes up."

Ironhide was the only one who went in to see Optimus. The others left to their quarters. Hours later, Bumblebee and Turmoil woke up. First Aid pulled up a chair in front of them. Bumblebee looked confused.

"Bumblebee I need to tell you that-" First Aid started.

"Primus no First Aid, don't tell me!" Bumblebee said loudly. "Don't tell me it's true."

"It is Bumblebee," said First Aid.

"Mom, what are you taking about?" asked Turmoil. Bumblebee or First Aid didn't want to tell him.

"Turmoil, your father is dead. He's been dead for hours," said First Aid.

"No he isn't," said Turmoil and ran to his quarters crying.

Bumblebee watched his son run off. He went into the medibay. He saw his spark-mate laying on his death bed. Bumblebee walked forward and went to his knees next to the death bed that held his spark-mate, and just cried. He stayed there for days. First Aid told Bumblebee to leave and get some recharge, and left inside his office. Bumblebee got up and started to walk away slowly. Then he heard a noise and froze in his tracks.

A/N: I know that this was short, but more will be coming soon.
