Chapter 9
High in orbit above the Earth a lone space craft descended into the orbit of the small blue planet. Inside the craft was a small green bot that was muttering to himself.
"Wasp will make sure Bumblebot pay for ruining Wasp's life." The green mech muttered to himself as he piloted the spacecraft into orbit and was unaware that the ship was being tracked.
Autobot Base
Optimus walked down the hallway that lead towards his youngest crewmate's quarters. He had a lot of apologizing to do for what he said. The truth of the matter was that Optimus was a little protective of Bumblebee because she was the youngest of the team. Bumblebee was always trying to get attention and now Optimus knew why.
"Bumblebee are you in there?" Optimus asked as he came to Bumblebee's room.
"What do you want Bossbot?" Bumblebee replied through the door.
"I just want to talk to you about what happened in the rec room." The red and blue Prime said hoping that Bumblebee would open the door and let him come in.
Within a cycle the door to Bumblebee's room opened and Bumblebee was standing in the doorway motioning for Optimus to come in.
The first thing that Optimus was shocked at was how neat the room was. It was spotless and clean. Something that he never would have thought would happen. But he guessed that it had something to do with being a former noble and always have to make appearance and be just perfect for the media.
Optimus saw Bumblebee point to a chair in the corner of her room for him to sit down in. Optimus sat down in the chair across from where Bumblebee was sitting. He could tell that Bumblebee had been crying and couldn't help but wonder if he was the cause of some of the tears.
Optimus started to speak. "First off Bumblebee I want to say that I'm sorry for what I said in the rec room. It was uncalled for."
"It's ok Bossbot. I should have told you that I was femme but I was afraid that you guys would baby me. It's bad enough that I'm the youngest on the team but it would have been worse if I was found out that I was a femme. I mean I lived on the streets for a number of years and learned how to defend myself from bots with questionable motives but I would have never have found out about Boot Camp and joined nor would I have made friends when I got kicked out." Bumblebee said as she remembered when she took the blame for Bulkhead when he dropped the building on Sentinel during a training exercise. It was just after she placed the blame on Wasp that he was a traitor. She had to live with the fact that she sent an innocent mech to the stockades.
Optimus was about to say something when his comm went off. "Optimus here." The red and blue Prime answer as he brought his hand to the side of his helm where his comm was located.
"Optimus, we have an unknown ship coming into orbit just over the city. It not answering any of our hails. Rodimus wants us to check it out. He says that you're in charge even though he's part of the Elite Guard and does technically outranks you. He said that he doesn't know his way around the city to fully command." Ratchet voice was heard through the comm.
"Alright. Have his team meet me in the rec room. I'll go over the plans with them there. Optimus out." Optimus replied and turned to Bumblebee who was already at the door.
"Let's go find out who decided to pay us a visit." The minibot said with a smile and headed out of her room.
It took less than a cycle for the two bots to arrive at the rec room. Optimus could tell that everyone was waiting for orders.
"All right here's what we're going to do. Since Rodimus's team doesn't know their way around the city I'm going to pair them up with one of my team that way team Rodimus doesn't get lost and believe me you can get lost in this city." Optimus told the Autobots that were waiting for his command.
A cycle later the teams were made. Ironhide went with Bumlebee. Red Alert was with Ratchet, Hot Shot with Prowl, Brawn was with Bulkhead and Rodimus went with Optimus.
"Autobots transform and roll out."
The Autobots transformed into their vehicle forms and headed to their respective area to search for whoever had landed and was on Earth.
Ironhide and Bumblebee headed towards an old abandoned part of the city. Something told Bee that there would be something there and she was right for as soon as they arrived at the part of town they found a small transport ship that had crashed landed.
"Let's split up and contact each other when we find something." Bumblebee said to Ironhide who nodded his helm in response.
"Be careful." Ironhide replied as he headed towards the west while Bumblebee headed towards the east.
It wasn't long before Ironhide came across what looked like the foot prints of what could be a minibot. Whoever was on Earth was a minibot.
Ironhide continued to look around for signs of the minibot when all of sudden he felt something sharp in his back.
"If Autobot wants to stay online Autobot will do what Wasp tells Autobot to do." A raspy voice said from behind Ironhide.
Ironhide knew the owner of that voice the moment the words were spoken. "Wasp it's me Ironhide." Ironhide said hoping that the green minibot would lower his stingers away from his back.
Wasp realized that the Autobot that he was holding hostage was his friend from Boot Camp and lower his stingers. "What Ironhide doing here?"
Ironhide turned around to face his old friend. "Mission. We have to deliver some supplies to the Autobots on Earth." Ironhide said looking Wasp straight in the face.
"Ironhide Commander Rodimus right?" Wasp asked.
"Yeah why?"
"Rodimus Wasp's cousin of mother's side." Wasp said.
Ironhide's jaw dropped to the floor. Wasp was related to his commander and that meant that he was related to Bumblebee as well and didn't know it. It also meant that Bumblebee sent a member of her own family to the stockades.
Next chapter Ironhide tried to convince Wasp not to go after Bumblebee.
