A/N: Here's Chapter 2 of Mirror. One thing about this story is that it's an AU. So that means that Bumblebee's voice box isn't torn. Hope you enjoy. As always constructive criticism allowed.
Chapter 2: What's Wrong?
It was the next day. Everyone was fine. Optimus was scouting out an energon signal. Meanwhile, the rest of the Autobots were hanging out with their human friends.
Their human friends was showing them human culture. Specifically music. Something Miko seemed to like.
Bumblebee was not in the mood today. He just didn't feel like it. That's what got Ratchet worried. Ever since last night, it seemed that Bumblebee has been acting strange.
He doesn't seem to act like himself.
Why?
Ratchet wanted to talk to him later. Possibly for a checkup.
"Bumblebee can I talk to you?" Ratchet said. "Is something wrong?" he asked. "Not exactly. Though I just want to do a checkup on you. Lately, I have been noticing your behavior. Is everything all right with you?" the medic said.
This again. Really!
"It's okay Ratchet. I'm fine. Nothing is wrong with me." Bumblebee said. He was getting annoyed of this question. "Please, let me help. I'm your medic. I know something is wrong. I don't like this attitude of yours. So help me you are getting this check up." Ratchet said as his anger goes up.
Bumblebee reluctantly agrees. Then he sees his reflection looking at him. His reflection then smiles evilly.
You know you can be a little more serious. Then everyone can take you seriously, youngling.
"You don't know me!" Bumblebee yelled. What he did not realized is that everyone heard him. He activates his blasters and shoot the wall were he saw his reflection. "Bumblebee! Stop this, NOW!" Ratchet yelled angrily. Bumblebee continued to blast the wall until Bulkhead started to grab him. "Let me go!" Bumblebee yelled. He started kicking Bulkhead. Ratchet went up to him and injected a sedative to put Bumblebee in a sleep state. Ratchet then carried him to the medbay.
There he was. This guy who claims that he is his own self. He was standing there staring at him with those evil red optics.
"What do you want?" Bumblebee asked. He was scared of this guy.
I just want to help you kid. I can make you a strong warrior.
"I don't believe you. You are not me!" 'Bee yelled. He activated his blasters and shoot at the other one. Though his other side disappear. 'Bee cursed as his other side disappear.
I beg a differ kid. You just don't get it. I AM YOU!
"NO! I AM NOT AN EVIL GUY!" Bumblebee yelled. He tried to hit his own dark side but he vanished.
You'll see. One day you will figure it out kid. One day...
Bumblebee jumped out of his berth.
Just a dream.
"Are you okay, Bumblebee?" Ratchet said as he walked up to him.
Arghh, him again.
"What do you want?" 'Bee snapped. Ratchet backed off.
What's going on?
"I'm just here to help you. I know something is not right with you. I just want to help." Ratchet said. He was concerned for the scout. He was more concerned for his mental state. Bumblebee just scoffed. "Like you want to know." he said. He was getting to a point that his attitude could change.
"I'm trying to help you and you are bot being a good patient." Ratchet said. He was getting annoyed of the scout's behavior.
"Ratchet, just leave me alone!" Bumblebee yelled angrily. That's were he saw him again.
Right there was his opposite. Standing there just watching him like a stalker.
You know, I have a suggestion. Why don't you just show the medic how you truly feel.
Was his audio receptors playing tricks on him?
No. I don't want to hurt him. He's a friend. I will not hurt my friend!
A friend. Really! To him you are just another soldier to him.
What, that's not true! I'm his friend!
Ratchet just watched as Bumblebee was spacing out. He noticed that he was thinking really hard. Or, talking.
Whatever is going on here, I will help you, young one.
A/N: So that's chapter 2 for you. So basically this story will get updated irregularly. Anyway, constructive criticism welcome.
