CRASH SITE
Laughter could be heard coming from the bots standing behind him. "Shut up Sunny," he growled as he studied his daughter's appearance. "Sparkling?" he questioned his gaze going to the gray mech standing in front of her.
"Ah, see, I'm bonded to Flamewar," she stated which caused the others to stare at her.
"Is that so?" he pondered as he returned his gaze to his daughter.
"Yes," Flamewar stated as he fought the urge to cringe.
"Hm," was Ratchet's only reply as he transformed and headed back to base.
"That went well," Redline said quietly.
Laughter.
AUTOBOT BASE
Sam wandered the halls of the base looking for his guardian-he had just discovered that the guy from sector seven was going to be one of the contacts for the autobots; he could not imagine how this was going to go over with the spy.
"Hello," Chromia stated as she came upon the human.
"Hi," he stated.
"You're Bee's friend," she responded as she knelt down and let him climb on here hand. "Where are you heading?"
"I'm looking for Bee," he responded with a worried look entering his eyes. "I need to tell him something before he finds out from someone else."
"He's in the rec room," she responded as she started walking in that direction. "What's wrong?"
"That agent from sector seven-Simmons; is going to be one of the government reps to the autobots," Sam retorted. "He's not going to be happy."
"Why not?"
"Cause he's the one who captured him and held him prisoner, when he was looking for the all spark," Sam responded. "Didn't the others tell you?"
"No," she said quietly as she pulled up all the information that she could about the human in question.
"They didn't."
CONFERENCE ROOM
Boom.
"What was that?" questioned SECDEF Keller halfway through the meeting.
"I don't know," Prime retorted as he opened up a commlink with Prowl. 'Prowl what was that explosion?'
'Chromia: who is this Special Agent Simmons?' Prowl asked in return with a growl in his voice.
"Chromia? Why would she…" Prime's voice trailed off as he ducked under the table much to the amusement of the humans and other Autobots.
"Optimus?" Ratchet questioned. "What did Chromia do?"
"Simmons," was Prime's only response as another explosion rocked the base.
"Oh dear," Ratchet responded as he gestured for the humans to take cover.
"What's going on?" Keller questioned.
"Have you heard the saying about not getting between a mother bear and her cub?" Lennox stated, as he grinned at the cowering Autobot leader. "Ironhide told me," he shrugged in response to Ratchet's questioning look.
"But we haven't even seen the sparkling!" Simmons shouted.
"Not that one," Ratchet responded shortly.
"Then which one?" Keller questioned. "There's no more NBE's in storage somewhere, is there?" horror growing on his face at the possibility.
"No."
"She found out about Bee's…visit to your base," Prime stated.
"Bumblebee?"
Ratchet grinned as he responded for Prime, "He's a youngling-roughly a teenager in human terms."
"So?"
"Mommy wants to talk," Lennox glanced at the door as it was blasted open.
"Mommy?" Keller realized the meaning as he gazed in horror at the femme standing in the doorway.
"Prime, we need to have a little talk," Chromia said sweetly as she approached the cowering mech.
"Ironhide just told me that you ordered him to leave Bee with the humans."
"Chromia…"
"Quiet Hatchet," she growled in response. "Prowl is helping Hide to the medbay, I suggest you go help
him."
"Ok," the medic paused only long enough to pick up the three humans.
END TRANSMISSION
I thought of having Ironhide going after Simmons when he discovered the former sector seven's agent's new job. But it was pointed out that while fathers may attack someone-mother's will kill and/or die in order to protect their children. –Skye
