"Does pink fit me?"
"Make a combination with your boots!"
It had been hours since they had gone to the movies and then to the games of the place to have fun. Some things were complicated thanks to the size of Bumblebee, but they managed along with the key of Sari and the power of Jirachi, however, at some point Sari realized that her dress had been torn and immediately asked for a new dress to Jirachi, it was exactly the same as the previous one except for the color.
"You just need your hair to be pink!" Bumblebee joked before transforming into his bipedal mode.
"Maybe I should change it too..." Sari says as she walked while holding Jirachi in her arms "How are you Jirachi? Do you feel any clue that you will winter again?" She asked.
The Pokemon just yawned. "I don't know. When winter comes, I don't feel different than when I rest like any day"
Sari started to worry. "That makes everything less predictable!"
Jirachi just denied and smiled. "Don't worry, maybe everything will go well."
"Jirachi is right! We still have to keep hope, and if even Jirachi were to sleep for a few thousand years. The Autobots will protect him, or he will stop calling me Goldbug!" Exclaimed the yellow Autobot dramatically.
Jirachi and Sari cocked their heads. "'Goldbug?'"
Bumblebee realized his mistake and laughed. "Sorry, it seems that my memory circuit went through a bad time. Goldbug was my name before entering the Autobot Academy."
Sari marveled. "Did you have another name before the academy?" She asked.
Bumblebee nodded. "Yes, like everyone else who entered the academy, except Prowl I think."
Jirachi smiled broadly. "What were their names? What was the name of Optimus and Ratchet before the academy?"
Bumblebee scratched his head thoughtfully. "So you know, Bossbot was called something like Orion Lax or Pax, I don't know. Ratchet... I don't remember. Oh, Bulkhead told me his name was Roadbuster!"
"Roadbuster?" Sari and Jirachi repeated at the same time.
"Yes— oh! I remember! Ratchet was called…" Bumblebee stopped as he entered the Autobots lairs. "Woah! What happened here!?"
Upon entering the Autobots den, they observed incredulously how everything had been destroyed, it was chaos and the others could not be seen anywhere. This worried the trio, especially Bumblebee, who thought this had been Decepticon work and perhaps his teammates had been in danger.
"W-Where are Optimus and the others?" Jirachi asked, with worry and fear.
Sari looked at Bumblebee. "Call them now!"
Bumblebee nodded and put his fingers on his head.
"That will not be necessary."
The three turned and were relieved to see their other friends were alive appearing through the other door. Although they seemed very badly damaged since there were dents and scratches were seen all over their bodies, especially Ratchet and Bulkhead.
"Guys!" Sari exclaimed running towards them, being greeted by Bulkhead. "Are you hurt, what happened to you guys?! Were you guys under attack!? Was it the Decepticons?! Do you need me to use my key?! Or a wish from Jirachi!?"
Ratchet sighed. "Calm down, Sari, we're fine," Then looked at his body. "mostly."
Jirachi floated towards Prowl, who catches him in his palm.
"What happened here?" Jirachi asked more calmly but with a grieving face.
Optimus sighed. "We still don't know for sure, but from one moment to the next there was a disturbance here with the machines and things went crazy."
Prowl nodded. "To be more specific, they turned against us."
"Wait! The machinery here simply lost control!?" Bumblebee exclaimed. "And did you find the cause!?"
Bulkhead groaned, but Optimus nodded heavily. "We did, we noticed that it was a small bot that had sabotaged the machinery, but we could not know anything else since Bulkhead accidentally crushed it."
The big mech groaned even more anguished. "I'm sorry."
Sari denied. "Don't worry! With Jirachi here, we can solve everything in seconds." She turned to see the Pokémon, who looked at her with a simple smile. "Jirachi, I wish—
"Wait!"
The girl stopped at the scream, and Optimus came forward. "I think it's time to make it clear that we should no longer abuse Jirachi's power."
The girl, Sari, and Bumblebee were surprised by his words.
"What!?"
"Abuse!?"
"So far we have only depended on the power of Jirachi, we have not achieved much on our own, and for that reason, we are weakening. How Autobots, our duty is to protect all forms of life, and we must do so by improving every day," He looked at organic yellow. "with our own effort"
Jirachi shrugged his eyes "Okay!" He exclaimed, "You can ask as many wishes as you want, now that I have the power to do everything you want, I will fulfill all your wishes!"
Optimus exchanged glances with the rest of the team, Prowl just denied.
"Jirachi, you must understand that you should not always serve others. We love you just the way you are, so you don't have to offer your wishes," The thin mech explained. "besides, it's time for us to do things on our own."
Jirachi denied. "It is not necessary! With me here and now, I can fulfill everything. I can give you the universe if you want! I like to fulfill everyone's wishes!"
Optimus denied. "We already clarified that we will not."
Jirachi looked at them with crystalline eyes for a long time, until he decided to float to Sari, who hugged him.
"I'm sleepy..."
Sari trembled.
"Optimus, were you... informed of what could happen tonight with Jirachi?" The girl asked, wrapping her arms around the Pokémon.
The prime obscured his optics. "Yes..." And he stood up to the girl "And we will be until the last second with Jirachi if that happens."
All the Autobots nodded, with sad smiles and optics, but in the end, they all settled close to feel comfortable and sleep around Jirachi. Sari thought for a moment about his father, but since things were still uncomfortable between them, he would let Sari get lost for one night, for now, the important thing was Jirachi.
The Pokémon thought about the words of his friends, and how they were so considerate of him, but somehow, Jirachi felt useless when he did not fulfill wishes since that was his main function. He tried to think more broadly, to think that they were doing it for their good, but... At least tonight, Jirachi wanted to make them happy before going to sleep.
Gradually, he felt the weight of his eyes heavily, until he finally fell asleep.
"Sari!"
The girl got up suddenly by a shout very close, and when she got up, she found herself facing a certain Pokemon.
"J-Jirachi ..." She whispered incredulously. "Jirachi!"
The Pokémon also showed itself with a big smile and tears in his eyes and threw himself into the arms of his friend. Not long ago he woke up to the brightness of dawn and hoped to find a place in ruins and without anyone, but what he found were the sleeping faces of his friends, who looked exactly like yesterday. That meant he had just woken up the next day, the eighth day! The Pokemon couldn't believe it at first, crossing it out as a dream, but then he pinched himself and noticed that if it was real, everything was real, so he threw himself at his friend.
"It's the eighth day, and I'm awake!"
They heard movement and saw that the other Autobots waking up.
"Ugh, my little shoulder, I don't want to sleep like that again," the yellow Autobot murmured drowsily. Until he saw Sari hugging something in her little arms. "Sari?"
Prowl showed a big smile. "Jirachi, you're awake!"
That made everyone react in shock.
Bulkhead smiled enormously. "It worked, Jirachi's awake!" Optimus and Ratchet laughed happily at the good news.
The Pokémon was still crying with happiness in the arms of the girl. "It worked guys, it worked!" then looked at them all. "Now we can live together and have all kinds of adventures!"
They all couldn't have agreed more.
Far from them, a battered-looking mechanical head grunted wildly as he remembered how he had failed in his attack on the enemy.
"Dirty Autobots..." He muttered "I will be paid very soon"
Then he played back some words he could record from the Autobots.
'Lucky that Jirachi is not here to see this.'
'Luck? Ugh- Luck would be something we could use to end this chaos with just one wish!'
'Ratchet! Agh!... We already made it clear that we will no longer use Jirachi's wishes. Now, focus on the battle!'
While that part of the annoying shrieks of the Autobots sounded strange, something made Megatron take suspicion, because they talked about something called Jirachi, and that it granted wishes? Strange and improbable, perhaps it would not be wrong to investigate this information a little more.
Many thanks to Sarah-TheDemonTiger for helping me with the chapter!
