It was late in the evening, the sun has set and a couple of stars could be seen, everyone was watching a movie on TV in the scrapyard. Apparently it was about a dog and a human being best friends the Russell picked. Everyone was enjoying it except for Sideswipe, he found it a little boring and sappy so he sat up and walked away without anyone noticing because they were too invested in the movie. He went to his own secluded training area, in one of the corners of the scrapyard. He stood in the middle, unsheathed his sword and began his routine.
However, Sideswipe didn't see or hear a white mech climb over the walls of the scrapyard and gracefully land on the ground. When the white mech turned around, his optics, behind an azure blue visor focused on the red Autobot that flipped, slashed and cartwheeled in such fluent motions. He was almost mesmerised by how graceful he looked. Then he wanted to know how good of a fighter this young mech really was.
He started to run towards him, loud enough for Sideswipe to break concentration. When Sideswipe heard the pedesteps, he swung his sword horizontally so the mystery bot would stop moving. He did, with his hands up as a surrender pose. Sideswipe's sword tip was pointing at a white mech, older than himself with a blue visor, Sideswipe had to admit, in the back of his processor, he was a bit attractive. The white mech smirked.
"Who are you, and why are you smiling?" Sideswipe demanded.
"You're good kid. Very good concentration." The white mech chuckled. He had a smooth voice like a rap artist.
"Are you are a 'con? Cause if you are I'm going to kick your aft." Sideswipe threatened.
The white mech laughed "Relax kid, I'm an Autobot." Then an orange Autobot insignia appeared in the middle of his torso. "I only hid it so the 'cons couldn't find me, or the location of your base."
Sideswipe, slowly and reluctantly lowered his sword to his side, not putting it away in case it was a trap. "I'm Sideswipe. And you?"
"Jazz." The white mech said.
"What are you doing here?" Sideswipe still didn't trust this bot but he couldn't stop staring at his visor, because he wanted to see his optics to know if he was lying or not.
"I came here to suprise Bee. We're good friends." Jazz answered happily.
Something wasn't adding up "If you wanted to suprise and see Bee then why did you try and attack me?" He raised his sword again.
Jazz smiled "Cause I was watching you for a while and I wanted to see how good you really are."
Sideswipe let out a short chuckle "You want to fight me?" He smirked.
Jazz smirked and grabbed the sword with his right hand, then pulled. Soon enough Sideswipe was right in front of Jazz, their chassis only an inch away. They were almost the same height, Sideswipe being only half a head shorter than Jazz.
Sideswipe froze. He could only stare at the blue visor. Being this close to Jazz made his spark flutter and a tint of blue appear on his cheeks.
"Bring it." Jazz said confidently.
Suddenly a bright light covered both of them which made them separate, and raise their arms to cover their optics.
"Hey!" Bumblebee shouted. He walked up to them, with his bright lights. "Jazz?" He smiled brightly with wide optics.
"I was gonna suprise ya but I guess you suprised me." Jazz said.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were still on Cybertron." Bumblebee said as he walked up to Jazz.
"I heard you were on Earth and I thought I would pay a visit." Jazz put his hands on his hips.
"Well, welcome to Earth Jazz. I'm guessing you already met Sideswipe." Bee gestured with his hand to Sideswipe.
"Yeah, I did. Kid's got spunk." Jazz glanced at Sideswipe, who shyly glanced back.
"Yep, that's Sideswipe alright."
Bumblebee then introduced everybody else who were quietly watching the exchange. Jazz thought it was cool that a strong Dinobot was on the team, it made Grimlock blush a little. Strongarm stood straight and saluted. Drift and his minicons bowed respectfully. Fixit just said a polite 'hello' that the humans did as well.
"You've got quite a team here Bee." Jazz complimented.
Bumblebee nodded and smiled, proud of his team. Then everyone heard a yawn coming from Russell, Denny chuckled.
"Looks like it's someone's bedtime, come on Rusty. It was nice to meet you Jazz, see you in the morning." Denny and Russell walked away from the bots getting ready for bed.
"I think we all should get some recharge." Bumblebee said to his team who nodded, said goodnight and walked to their berths. "If I knew you were coming I would've prepared somewhere for you to sleep."
"It's alright Bee, I'll bunk with Sideswipe, since we have a spar session tomorrow." Jazz soothed.
Bumblebee raised an optical ridge and shrugged "Ok, goodnight Jazz."
Jazz nodded as Bee walked to his berth for some well needed recharge. Jazz then started to walk to Sideswipe's 'room' of sorts since the scrapyard doesn't really have bedrooms. When Jazz found Sideswipe he was laying on his side facing him.
He looks cute while recharging Jazz thought while smiling. He walked over to Sideswipe's berth and sat down at the side, leaning against it. I wonder if the kid is as good as he thinks he is, Jazz thought as his visors began to dim and soon enough he was enveloped in darkness as he fell into a peaceful recharge.
On Cybertron a lone mech stood inside a tall tower gazing out the window.
"Autobot Jazz, you will get what's coming to you. Enjoy your vacation while it lasts, and when you least expect it, I will take away everything that you love." The mech growled to himself. Then he chuckled, and the chuckles turned into a laugh, and the laugh turned into an evil cackle.
It would seem that this mech has a score to settle with Jazz.
