Chapter 29- Planning
"Your little friend managed to escape in the cross fire" the vehicon who was dropping our energon off for the day said, it's been roughly three solar-cycle (days) since Bee's voice had been removed and since Arcee apparently escaped.
The vehicon dropped the tray and slammed the cell door as he exited, I picked 3 of the 8 energon cubes and slid the rest towards Bee. Even though he didnt have a voice he hadn't spoken to me in the days since the incident, he didnt even scratch notes into the floor like he'd done at first.
Even worse he was barely eating or sleeping, some nights when my optics powered off I would see him just blankly staring out the high window in our cell. I wanted to help him but I didnt know how.
Bee just looked at the energon on the tray before turning his back on it and going back to staring aimlessly out the window. "C'mon Bee you've got to eat sometime, and I'm gonna need you to be strong for when we break out of here" I said moving myself and the energon tray next to him.
He turned his head away from the window and looked at me with a blank expression in his optics, "Please Bee, eat something for me?" I said giving him puppy eyes.
A memory popped into my head
(In the small flash back)
"Give it back Rain" I yelled I looked about 12 or 13 here, Rainjet was holding something above my head I couldn't make it out. "No I don't think I will" she said holding it higher as I jumped at whatever she was holding "Pleaseeee give it back to me" I begged giving Rainjet my puppy eyes. She sighed "Fine, here you go" she said handing me back what she'd taken from me. I grabbed it out of her servo and hugged her.
We stood hugging for awhile until I let her go, I grinned "Bet you I can beat you to the other side of the park, and no flying aloud!" I said mischievously. "You're on!" Rainjet said taking off running I transformed and sped past her "No fair!" she yelled from behind me.
(End of flashback)
I shook the memory off "Didn't I get bury those in an un retrievable file?" I thought, just remembering how innocent and happy I was gave me the chills. I missed Rainjet like crazy but she'd changed in the stellar cycles I hadn't seen her. I watched Bumblebee finally eat his energon. We both sat in silence eating, until we got finished.
"So you ready to get the frag out of here?" I giggled as his optics got wide worh surprise "Of course I've been planning while you were moping around, now come here and I'll show you" I punched his shoulder before I got up and walked over to the lose floor piece.
When I moved it back, the datapad I'd swiped off of Knockouts table came into view. I grabbed it pit of the hole before covering it backp up with the floor piece. Bumblebee's optics got wider when I showed him the datapad. "I told you we were getting out of here" I said pulling up the plans I'd been making for the past three solar-cycle.
"The vehicon comes with our energon every three hours on the hour" I said pointing to the little note I'd made, Bee just nodded his helm and continued listening. "If we drag him in here you can use your blaster and hold him down while I get what we need out of him, which is where their keeping my swords and where the escape pods are. Once we get all that out of him I'll go reclam my swords while distract the other guards. Make sense?"
Bumblebee nodded his helm "Wanna add anything to it?" I asked, be grabbed the datapad off the floor and typed away on the screen. He looked up every once in a while to check the door.
I just sat back and watched as he typed about a paragraph of new information onto the pad. When he was done he handed it back to me to review the work he'd done.
There was a list if things that he wanted to add
" ● find the file of what knockout did to my voicebox
● look for the escape pods
● once we find where they have Twinwave's swords, steal some supplies for everyone back at base.
● Find out which direction we're headed in so we can find our way back to base
● turn off the ships cloaking so the Autobots will shoot it down "
" Looks good Bee" I said "But we should put this away before the vehicon comes back with our next tray of energon.
Bee nodded and I moved the metal piece and stashed the pad back into the hole before recovering it up again. So that it would look like we weren't planning anything.
Bee started scratching something into the floor with one of his digits, when he was finished he tapped my shoulder so I could read it. "Why didn't Arcee tell those Autobots that we were here with her?" He asked, I looked at Bee and sighed "She might've tried but they didnt listen or she passed out from some sort of shock, but we don't know for sure until we see her again and ask" I said.
Bumblebee scratched another message into the floor, tapping me again on my shoulder when he was finished. "Do you think anyone will come back for us?" Was his question I looked out the window before giving him my answer "No I dont think so they would've already come for us if they were" I looked up at Bee, his optics looked saddened by this news but I did my best to comfort him "Listen we're going to get ourselves out if here with or without their help okay?"
"Plus we already have a plan, how about we wait till tomorrow at our last visit with that vehicon for our plan? That way if anyone is coming they'll have time to do so tomorrow" I said Bee still didnt look happy but nodded his helm. We didnt talk while we waited for the vehicon to come back with the tray of energon.
We actually barely spoke to one another for the rest of the day, even after the vehicon came to drop off the energon and then left us again. We didnt speak until we were going to sleep.
"Bee I know it's been a stressful couple of days but we're gonna be fine, ok? We're gonna get ourselves out of this dump tomorrow night and then we'll get someone to fix you're voicebox" I said, Bee just gave me blank stare before going back to staring out the window in the cell.
I sighed "I'm sorry Bee, we'll get you fixed soon" I thought before I powered off my optics.
