The three head to the beach. It is nighttime. The stars are shinning bright up ahead. There was yellow tape near the water. The guards are still riding their boats searching the area. Optimus grabs a chair and places it for Arcee. She sits down looking at the great ocean or her home.

Prime sits next to her. He looks to the sky. It is windy and dark. The rain didn't come by which is good. Arcee looks ahead with a smile.

Bee starts playing with the sand. He is building a sand castle. Bee can see the dolphins from where they are sitting. Other people are sitting on the side also.

"Prime…?" ask Arcee

"Yes…" said Optimus

"Does…Bee have a mother?" she ask.

Prime is silent for a long while. He didn't say anything. Arcee notices and sighs.

"I'm sorry…I was just wondering…" said Arcee "You do have to tell me"

"No…" said Optimus "Bee does have a mother"

"Oh…"

"She left him" he said as he looks down "She left us"

"Oh my…"

"Bee was just a little born child" said Prime "He was so cute…"

Arcee smiles "Well he still is"

Optimus laughs little. "I thought we were going to be a family…growing up together but…"

Prime didn't say anything. Arcee places a hand over his.

"She left when Bee was only one" said Optimus "She was in a lot of stress…I try to help her out; telling her everything will be okay"

Optimus looks at Bee. "We fall asleep and the next day she is gone; leaving a note saying she can't do this"

Arcee looks down. "Oh my"

"I went to see Bee and he is still sleeping so I promise that I will never leave him" said Optimus "I will always be there"

"I'm sorry…" she said

Optimus looks at the sand.

"Hey at least you and Bumblebee are still together" she said "Did he ever ask about her?"

"No…never"

Arcee squeezes his hand. "He is happy…and that's what matters"

Optimus smiles as he looks at her. "True…"

"I use to have a family…" said Arcee

"What…?"

"They are all gone" she whispers

"I'm sorry…"

"No…I am the only one who survived" said Arcee "No one else"

"Survived…?" ask Prime.

"My family…were…killed" she said as a tear go down her cheek. Optimus eyes grow wide.

"Arcee" Optimus looks at her "Where…are you from?"

"I'm not from here" said Arcee "I from…"

"Don't tell him"

"I'm going to tell him Blu" said Arcee

"No don't tell him"

"I want to"

"Where…?" Optimus asks.

"From…the Oc…"

"Dad…LOOK!"

Prime and Arcee look to where Bee is pointing at. The waves are getting bigger. He stares in awe; the guards did the same. The ocean water never has been this high.

"The wave…looks too big"

"Dad…is it a Tsunami?" ask Bee.

"No…Tsunami takes the whole water with it…some of the water is still here near the shore"

"Then what is it?" ask Bee.

"I don't know…maybe the rain" said Prime "Maybe the rain is pulling back water"

"It can't be the rain" said Arcee "I don't think it has anything to with weather"

The guards start heading to shore. Arcee looks ahead wondering what is going on with the water. The water is standing still; the massive wave is just standing still.

Optimus goes to one of the guards.

"Do you know what is happening?" ask Prime

"No…we don't" said the guard "It's not a Tsunami…it must be something with the water levels"

Optimus nods in understanding. Arcee runs closer to the shore; she wants to find out what is going on.

"Blu…are you there?" ask Arcee

"Yes…but…"

"But…"

"I can't move…I can't move at all"

"What…?"

"None of the animals can move at all" cries Blu. "We are stuck…"

She is now confused. The ocean creatures don't ever stand completely still. The only that is possible if someone is controlling them. Her father did this once. He created a massive wave; making the creatures hold still; so he can destroy the enemies who were heading their way.

"OH my…" she whispers. Her dad told her never to use the massive wave unless needed. He also told her to never use where the humans live. The wave can destroy many things; or even injure or kill people. "OH NO!"

The massive wave is getting little bigger now. She starts to panic. He dad told her the danger of the massive wave. At least he told her how to stop the massive wave but she only has one arm.

You need all your strength to stop the wave. She swallows.

"OH no…" Arcee runs to Optimus and Bee. "You need to get as high as possible"

"What…" said Optimus

"The wave is strong enough to flood this place…you need to get to high ground"

"These building are built to protect us from a Tsunami…" said Optimus "It can hold…"

"No this wave is stronger than any other…" said Arcee. "Please…get to high ground"

"The wave hadn't move for a while it can maybe go away" said Prime

Arcee looks at the sand. She can't change his mind. She needs to think of a good reason. She has to save them.

She goes to the guards. "Tell everyone…they have to go to high ground…no matter what"

The guard looks at her for a long while. He doesn't believe her but there is no other choice. He does what Arcee tells him. Everyone start running to the highest ground.

She looks ahead and she sees someone standing on top of the wave. She gasps and her mouth goes wide open.

"Oh no…" she whispers. "This can't be"

Arcee doesn't know what to think anymore. The person standing on top of the wave is Airachnid. She found her. Arcee is now looking into space. Airachnid is laughing from afar. Arcee can tell she is getting ready to release the massive wave.

"Oh no…"

Arcee looks back at Prime and Bee. Optimus is holding on to his son. He doesn't want to leave him alone; not while the big wave is still flowing.

"I have to stop this…but my arm" she whispers. She sees the boat and she jumps on it. She turns it on and is about ready to go.

"ARCEE NO!" yells Prime.

"I have to Prime…" she said "I have to stop the wave"

"How…?" ask Optimus "This is just something natural…no one can stop nature"

"Optimus…remember when I told you I'm not from here"

"Yes…"

"You will find out where I'm from" said Arcee as she dashes to the ocean. Prime runs after her but he stops when the water is too hard to swim on. He looks at the animals. None of them move at all.

"What is going on?" he ask as he looks at the creatures. Even the dolphins aren't moving at all. Optimus goes back to shore. "We have to get to high ground…"

Optimus picks up Bee and heads to the hotel. He dashes up to the very top floor. Several people are already sitting near the wall or the middle. Others are at other buildings as well.

Optimus looks at the big wave. He has to do something. Arcee is out there by herself. Optimus looks at Bee.

"I have to help her"

"No…please don't go" cries Bee "I'm scared…"

"Hey…everything will be okay" said Optimus "Stay here…"

Optimus finds Ratchet in the crowd. "Ratchet!"

"Yes…"

"This is my son…can you please watch over him" said Optimus.

"Sure…"

Another man steps up behind Ratchet "We will…"

"Thank you…umm…."

"I'm Magnus…Ultra Magnus" said the guy "You were the one that stole my boat yesterday"

"Oh sorry about that…"

"We will keep a close eye on him" said Magnus. Ratchet nods in agreement.

"Thank you…" Optimus kisses Bee on his temple. He starts running off.


Arcee stops in front of the wave. It is really high for her. She can't even see the sky from here. She jumps in the water and starts walking up the massive wave. She goes to the very top to see Airachnid standing tall.

"Arcee…"

"Airachnid" she growls.

"What brings you here?" ask Airachnid

"I came here to stop you"

"Well…well…I don't believe you can"

Arcee jumps and kicks her down. Airachnid uses the water to strike her head. Arcee falls back with a yelp. She lands on her injure arm. She cries out in pain.

"You can't Arcee…you are weak"

"Stop this Airachnid…" said Arcee "Leave those humans alone"

"And why shall I do that?"

"Because you want me…and I am here in front of you"

"Okay…"

"So bring the wave down; let the animals go and stop this whole thing"

"I was having some fun Arcee" said Airachnid "Maybe I want to destroy the place…so you won't have anywhere to hide"

"I'm here Airachnid" said Arcee "Innocent people are there…they didn't do anything"

Airachnid laughs out loud "You were hiding among them…"

"I was and now I am here to stop you"

Arcee gets up slowly and uses the water to push Airachnid back. She stumbles back and Arcee kicks her back. Airachnid growls as she charges towards Arcee. She kicks Arcee on the ribs; Arcee falls on her knees.

Airachnid kicks the injure arm. Arcee yells in pain.

"You are weak…Princess…" said Airachnid "You can't even control you powers anymore"

Airachnid grabs some water and throws it to Arcee. She was thrown back with a yell. Arcee arm is now hurting so much.

"Ocean Princess…Arcee" she laughs "You are no longer on duty"

Airachnid makes the wave bigger. She laughs at the top of her lungs.

"I am you new queen" she smiles "Bow down to your queen"

Arcee crawls back as Airachnid is slowly making her way to her. Airachnid takes out a staff. The staff belonged to Arcee's father now Airachnid took it from him and she has it.

"I will rule this world"

Arcee eyes widen as the staff is raise high. Airachnid is about to stab her; just like what she did to her dad.

"Good-bye Princess…"

Arcee closes her eyes.

"NO!" someone yells.
