Everybody was in the med bay getting repairs after a fight with Megatron and the decepticons. None of them suffer any thing life threatening, just a few minor injuries. It was all worth it because they uptake another fragment. While getting repaired they were talking, until Sari ask a question.
"Have Megatron always been this bad?"
"From what I heard yes, yes he was." said Optimus
"Gesh, are there any more decepticons as bad as he is?"
"There probably are but not as much as there were during the war." said Ratchet as he finish up repairing Bumblebee's stingers.
"Yeah? How bad were they?"
"Pretty bad. Some worse than others. But they weren't as bad as the Triple Terrors." When he mentions that no one notice that Bumblebee's whole frame went stiff.
"The Triple Terrors? Who were they?" she asked.
"I have heard of them. Aren't they a family of decepticons?" asked Prowl.
Ratchet nodded. "Three of the most fear decepticons on Cybertron. Maybe even more feared than Megatron."
"Than Megatron?" yelled Bulkhead, surprise that there were decepticons scarier then Megatron.
"Who were they, Ratchet?" asked Prime. He had read of them but thought he'll get more details from the veteran.
"Their names were Chop Shop, Venom, his sparkmate, and Stinger, their sparkling."
"A sparkling?" questioned Prowl.
"What's a sparkling?" asked Sari.
"It's sort of our way of saying baby." replied Prime
"Yup. They had train their sparkling to become an assassin, a spy, and a scout. She was an excellent decepticon, but rumors say she was insane, too."
"Insane? How?" said Optimus.
"She had an obsession with energon. She would kill bots just to have their energon spill."
"Isn't energon something you drink?" asked Sari
"The energon I'm talking about kid is the one that pumps through our frames. It's like that red liquid that pumps through organics."
"You mean blood. Eeww."
"Have you ever seen her?" asked Bulkhead
"Nope. Any bot who got a glimpse of her would be killed either by her or her creators soon enough. Most bots even called her a monster."
"Who wouldn't" said Bulkhead. He didn't know how much that had hurt Bumblebee. Deciding he had heard enough, he got up and headed towards the door.
"Hey, Bumblebee. " said Bulkhead as he notice Bee heading to the door. "Where you going?"
Everyone looked at the yellow 'mech'.
"I'm... going out for a while. Later" he said without looking at anyone.
"Oh...okay. Later" Bulkhead said sadly as the door close.
"That was strange." said Prowl.
"Agreed" said Optimus, worried about their youngest member.
"So...was Stinger always a monster?" asked Sari, eager to know.
"I'm not sure. There a lot of rumors saying how she got that way. But if you asked me I'll say her creators were to blame for that." said Ratchet as he continue repairing.
"Why you say that?" asked Optimus
"She was taught to become a decepticon too young so it corrupted her processor."
"So what happen to The Triple Terrors?" asked Prowl
"Chop Shop and Venom were mysteriously murder. It happens during a battle, so there was no witnesses as to who killed them or if there was a killer in the first place."
"And Stinger?" asked Optimus
"She disappears during the mysterious murder of her creators. She was never seen again."
"So she's still online?" asked Bulkhead, a little scared.
"Possibly. Some say she's offline but they never did found her frame."
"So there's probably some super bad insane decepticon chick roaming around space somewhere?" said Sari.
"I guess you can say that, yes." 'But for some reason I don't think she's just roaming around space.' He though. Both he, and Optimus, thinks Bumblebee might have a link to the Triple Terrors in some way.
Some where in the Decepticon capital, Kaon. Two bots and their sparkling were playing.
"Wiii" said the sparkling as she fly around the room. She was being held by her Sir since she wasn't old enough to fly, and her Carrier was watching from a short distance.
"Faster, faster." she said.
"Eh, eh, okay you asked for it." he said as he went faster. They laugh.
"Looks like some one's going to be a fast little seeker are we?" said the femme bot as lean on her sparkmates shoulder.
The sparkling stared down on her creators who were full of love for her. But that didn't last. Soon as the scene melted away.
The sparkling gasp. She looks around. She was outside, in a battle field.
"Mommy? Daddy?" she yelled as she wonders around.
As she wonders, she saw something on the ground in front of her. She walks close to it. As she came closer the thing became more and more detailed. There lies the body of two bots. As she got close, she gasped when she saw who the bots were.
There on the ground lies the body of decepticons. There lie the bodies of her creators.
"Mommy! Daddy!" she cried. She fell on her knees and started crying. As she cries, a dark figure approaches from the other side.
"Isn't beautiful" said the figure.
"You." she said, getting ready to for murder. "You did this"
The figure laugh. "Foolish child. I... didn't do this." The figure stepped out of the shadows, revealing herself. "We did this"
She gasped and stepped back. "No..."
"Believe it or not, you did this. You...killed them."
"No... Y-y-you lying."
"Oh, I am, am I? Look at your servos"
She did and gasped yet again. Her servos were cover with energon.
"They were killed by your servos. Your servos that are covered by their energon."
"No..." she said as she fell on her knees. Oil was leaking from her optics.
"Oh yes. And soon everyone you care about will be died as well..." The figure lead towards her audio processor. "...including your new family."
"Nnnooo"
"AAAAHHH"
Bumblebee jolted online with a start, panting and trembling. Her sapphire optical sensors scanned her surroundings. For a moment that seemed to last a stellar-cycle; she could see nothing but a cramped, suffocating blackness – it smothered her sensory circuits, jamming her processor – before, gradually, vaguely familiar shapes began to peer through the dark. She was in her room.
After a few breems of collecting her breath, she lay back down on her berth. This is her third time she had that dream and she remember it clearly. It starts of happy and joyful and ends up with horror and fear. She close her optics but didn't go back to recharge. She shouldn't go back to recharge. She checks her internal clock. It was 5:30. She woke up earlier than the last few time.
Slowly, the young bot staggered out of bed and stretching her tired servos. Might as well start the day early. Bee silently left her room and made her way to where they kept the oil and energon. Once she got her ration of oil she headed toward the rec room to watch TV. She still hadn't decided if she even was going to tell the other the truth. Should she tell them every thing or just part of it? Will they still accept her or reject her and place her in the loony brig? What ever she was going to do she was going to have to do it sooner or later.

Prowl, as usual, woke up early to start his meditation and get his ration of oil. While heading for the 'kitchen', he passes by the rec room. He heard the TV was on and decided to see who it was, mostly expecting Optimus. He was surprise to see someone other than Optimus was up. He was more surprise to see that that someone was Bumblebee.
He was still a little overwhelmed that Bumblebee was able to best him the other day so he decided to reclaim himself by sneaking up on him and scaring him. Using his ninja techniques he walk up silently behind. Bumblebee appears to be watching TV but his glare indicate he was staring into space.
Once he was right behind him, he reaches out to his shoulder and... What happen next was pretty much a blur.

Optimus had just waked up from his recharge and was headed to the 'kitchen' for some ration when he heard a noise.
"Gaah!"
Optimus jumped a little then headed to the source of the sound, the rec room. When he got there he was treated to a surprise. There was Bumblebee on top of Prowl holding him in a hammer lock. But what really surprises him was the fact that Bumblebee's optics were some what red.
"Thought you can seek up on me, uh?" Bee growled. "Well, think again." She tightens the hold.
"Ah, Bumblebee...it's me" Prowl said painfully.
"Prowl? Oops!" she releases the hold. Her optics returns back to normal. "Sorry I thought you were a decepticon or something. Are you okay?" she asked helping him up.
"I'm fine" he mumbled. He stretches his arm. It was probably dislocated. "Where did you learn that?" he asked. Bumblebee had now bested him twice, in a row!
"Uhm..." she hesitated.'Bee you better thing of something quick, femme.'
"Uhm what?"
"I...ah..." 'Lie bitch, lie!' She heard the TV then came up with a response. "I...got it from the TV.'That's not a complete lie. I did see it on TV once.'
"On TV?" Prowl said, not fully believing her.
"Yup" she said with a smile.
"Hmm"
"Ah hm."
They turn towards the door to see Optimus standing there.
"Oh hey boss bot. How long you been standing there?" asked Bee
"Long enough." he said walking towards them. "Bumblebee I notice that you been getting up earlier. Is something wrong?"
'I should have stayed in my room' "Yeah I'm alright. Just some nightmares that's all."
"I see. Well, if you want to talk about it you can talk to me okay?" he smiled.
"Yup!" 'Great now he's suspicious.' "Well, since I'm early I'm going to take a ride around the city. Later" she said as she left the room. 'Great just great. If he saw what I think he saw then it wouldn't be long until they'll be asking questions.'
/
Once Bumblebee was out of hearing distance Prowl started talking.
"I'm guess you saw the same thing I saw?" It all happens so fast he barely got the glimpse of Bumblebee's red optics when he flips him over.
Optimus nodded. Bumblebee has been acting strange ever since they had talked about the Triple Terror, and now he's having nightmares. They got to be link in some way.
"He will tell us when he's ready. He trusts us." Optimus said heading toward the door. It's probably a personal topic for Bumblebee and he didn't want to force him into talking about something hurtful to him.
"Well, might as well start the solar cycle with some energon. You're coming?" He looked at the ninja bot. Prowl nodded then they both headed for the 'kitchen'.
A/N: I end the day with this chapter. I should probably get back to my other one now.
