The race was almost over Sam had only to cross the finish line to win and there was nothing even close to stopping him, the chequered flag waved in the air as he claimed victory and the mystery prize. He pulled up by the podium as the guy from the commercial reached over and pulled back a thick red curtain that had been keeping the mystery prize from view; there sitting in all it's glory was Bumblebee's alt form, his lover looked perfect in the glow of the warm sunlight. But instantly the warm sun light was replaced by dark storm clouds and Miles seemed to step out of thin air holding a huge angle grinder, the look on his face was one of pure hate he moved close to Bumblebee and brought the spinning disk down on the camaro alt's roof, Bee screamed out as a large gash was cut in the metal. Laughing at the damage and cries of pain Miles moved on to the drivers side door, he sliced it form Bumblebee in seconds; Sam was panicking he couldn't move, he wanted to stop Miles, he wanted to rip the tool from the deranged teens hands and knock him to the floor for harming Bee, he wanted to rush his lover to Ratchet and have the wounds repaired and never let his Bumblebee out of his arms again. But he couldn't all he could do was watch, nothing would respond not his robot body, not his alt, not even his Avatar; sneering in triumph at the immobilised Sam Miles moved on to the hood, he sliced the metal off as the Autobot below him screamed once more.
Bee was shaking on his shocks from the pain, "why don't you run?, why don't you fight back" Sam tried to scream but nothing came out as he had been rendered mute by some unknown force. A twisted leer crossed Miles face as he found what he had been looking for, once more he brought the spinning metal disk down, this time Bumblebee screamed for only a few seconds before everything fell silent. This was beyond terror for Sam, he wished that Bee would scream if only to let him know that the yellow Autobot was still alive; slowly Miles pulled the angle grinder out of Bumblebee and threw it to the ground as if it no longer had any meaning, he reached inside Bee's body and pulled out an orb of pulsing energy laughing once more he squashed it between both hands as it's light died form the world.
Something disturbed him from stasis, there was movement next to him, Bumblebee slowly sat up and look at his lovers sleeping form. Sam was tossing and turning as he muttered things while in deep stasis, from out side Sam's Veyron alt was moving around on it's shocks as it matched his Avatars movements. Bee had just brought his hand to Sam's shoulder in an attempt to wake him when Sam shot bolt upright in bed and started screaming, instantly Bumblebee grabbed hold of his lover and pulled him close. For a moment Sam was silent as he stared at Bee like he was the only thing in the world, then he started crying as he buried his face into Bee's chest "please don't leave me bee, please be ok I don't want you to die" Sam was shaking in fear as he pleaded for his lover to be all right. "it's ok sam, I'm here, I'm ok, I'm not going anywhere and I'm not going to die" Sam looked up at Bee when he spoke, he had been crying so much the his Avatar was surrounded by a halo of light as more and more nano particles tried to rejoin the main body. Sam turned his head searching the room as if expecting to see someone in there with them. "what is it sam?" Bee asked and Sam told him about the nightmare as he once more held on to Bumblebee like a frightened child.
Bee comforted Sam for the better part of an hour before he finally fell back into stasis, even though Sam was now "out like a light" as humans put it his Avatar was holding on to Bumblebee's with a grip so tight that he could have crushed a normal human easily. Bumblebee kept watch for the next hour ready to wake Sam if he looked like he was having nightmares again, gently Bee ran his fingers through his lovers hair as the Avatar clung to his own with even more force. Soon Bumblebee found it hard to fight stasis, his internal clock told him that it was well past three am; making sure that Sam was still ok Bee performed a scan of the area looking for any trouble. For some reason the scout felt that he should check on Miles location, though it had just been a bad dream there was an uneasy feeling that filled Bumblebee's spark chamber; there were no humans moving around the neighbourhood, there was no sign of decepticon activity and Miles cell phone was showing that it at least was in Miles home. Feeling that things were safe enough for now Bee let stasis take hold over him again.
It was late in the morning when they both awoke, Bee having been roused from stasis by Sam's movements once more. "how are you feeling?" Bumblebee asked as he looked as Sam through half open eyes, Sam was blushing as he replied "a little embarrassed, I haven't reacted to a nightmare like that since I was a little kid, it just felt so real and I couldn't do anything to stop it when he.." Sam stopped talking as the image of Miles reaching into Bumblebee's spark chamber filled his mind once more. It made Sam feel ill, he clutched at his chest shaking as if his own spark had been ripped out in the dream. Bee kissed him gently and said "it was just a bad dream, I wont let anyone hurt either of us ever I promise" "I know that bee, it's just that I couldn't do anything to save you, I couldn't stop him, I would have given anything if he had just left you alone, I would have even sat there and let him carve me up with that thing if it kept you safe" Sam was on the verge of tears again as he spoke. This had been the worst dream he had ever had in his life, it all felt so real at the time and now he had all these mixed up feelings running around inside him.
By the time they made it down stairs it was well past ten o'clock and only Judy was still in as Ron had gone out to take care of some errands. Sam still looked half in stasis as he entered the living room "no breakfast this morning sam?" she asked "kind of had a bad dream last night mom" he answered, Judy gave him a concerned look when she heard. "it was nice having bee there with me" Sam said as Bumblebee wrapped his arms round his lovers waist holding him close again, "sam you need to get you mind off yesterday and last night I think that we should go to the lake, we can ask mikaela to come too" Bee said nuzzling the back of Sam's neck softly. Judy still gave Sam a look of concern she knew that her son must have had a really bad dream for it to still be affecting him like this "is there anything else you need honey?", Sam felt Bee grin into the back of his neck for a second "well there is one thing Mrs Witwicky" the formal tone told Judy that she wasn't going to like this "you see there's this race coming up in two days and there's nothing like a run at high speed to clear an autobots head of problems, so if your ok with it sam and I can spend a few hours racing other the drivers along the course, it would really help make him feel better" Bumblebee had reallly turned on the charm for the last part. But Judy looked unfazed by his words, Sam now added his own sad look as he said "it would really take my mind off things mom if I could go, there's nothing like it" now that she was facing the two them her defences were crumbling fast.
The look from both of them was the last straw for her "oh all right, the last thing I want is the two of you moping around for days on end" said Judy as she held her hands up as if in defeat. "but I have a few ground rules, the two of you are to take things easy, if things look to dangerous you two are too pull out of the race and I'm not budging on that" "ok mom" said Sam while Bee just nodded gently. "ok then, though I still think you two are playing me on this, maybe I should call ratchet and ask his opinion..." Bee suddenly cut in and said "well look at the time I think we should be getting to the lake and we have mikaela to pick up too so we'd best leave now" the blond Avatar pushed Sam out of the door quickly while Judy just laughed as she thought "well that was too easy, I think I'll have to get sam to give bee some lessons so he puts up more of a fight in the future". "you know my mom was just teasing you about calling ratchet right?" "sorry sam but now that she said yes I'm not taking any chances on ratchet spoiling it" replied Bumblebee as he helped Sam into his alt form before getting into his own.
"I think we should call mikaela before we just turn up at her door bee" commed Sam as they drove through the streets of Tranquillity "you may be right about that sam, the computer in the shop shows there are a lot of bikes in for repair" replied Bee, then Sam sent back "you hacked her computer again, you know that you could have just called her and asked if she was busy". Sam accessed his com system and set it so that he could call Mikaela "hey, mikaela are you busy?" he asked when she answered the phone "I am at the moment, no that wants to be over there wheelie" said a very rushed Mikaela "what's going on?" enquired Sam "we just had a very expensive harley dropped in for the biggest repair I've ever seen, the guy that owns it got a surprise from his wife when he got home this morning" her tone told Sam that it was not a good surprise "she thought that he wasn't spending enough time with her so she decided to get his attention by taking out her frustration on his ride" "ouch" said Sam Before Mikaela continued "it's a little more than ouch sam, I'd tell you the things she carved into the leather seat but I'd be arrested for making an obscene phone call, and that's just the light stuff, there house paint all over the chrome, in the gas tank and the oil, all the lights have been smashed and she ran a twelve inch knife through the battery" "how do you know that" asked Sam curiously "because it's still in there, I tell you sam the thing looks like an autobot horror movie or something" these words caused Sam to shiver in fear a little "anyway we have to get to work on it right now as the guy is paying top dollar for the repairs". "so you couldn't sneak off for an hour or two so you could come to the lake?" Mikalea smiled when she heard the question, Sam sounded more at ease with her than he had the last time they had spoken "I wish I could, just listen to what were having to deal with from the guy" as she said this she brought the reviver to the front of the shop so that Sam could hear form him self "I don't care that it's a big job, I don't care that you have other customers to take care of, I want the damage caused by that crazy bitch repaired and I don't care how much it costs" yelled the strained voice of a man.
When Mikalea put the receiver back to her ear she heard Sam say "so that's a no then" "it's a good job your cute sam because your not winning any prizes with lines like that" Mikalea smiled then said "tell bee I'm sorry about not going and make sure that he understands that the people round the lake will notice if you avatars do anything other than just kiss, watching him try to jump you on the flight home was no easy thing" Sam though embarrassed just laughed back "you and bee take care sam I'll try and call you when work lightens up, no wheelie we need to start on the engine first, yes I know that if this were an autobot then it would be bleeding, gotta go sam" and Mikaela hung up. "so is she coming?" commed Bumblebee "I don't think so bee" replied sam as he replayed the conversation to his lover, "wow, I think I understand you nightmare a little more now sam, humans can be crazy when they loose control of their emotions, their even more dangerous than decepticons in that state" Bee's voice told Sam just how shocked he was about finding out that humans could act like that, the scout had just though that Sam's nightmare had been made from a random collection of thoughts and that something like that could never happen in real life.
The road changed from busy streets to open country as they both neared the lake, the weather was fine and the wind was cool, it was a perfect day for just kicking back and forgetting your troubles. Although they had both wanted to make it to the lake unnoticed nether had managed to as a large number of people now gathered to look at what looked like the most expensive cars in town. Sam and Bee let out a collective sigh as they tried to find somewhere to park amongst the growing sea of humanity that had once been teens just trying to grab a spot by the waters edge.
