Zen POV

It was now the next day after the sleepover at the Autobots base. I had just awoken from my sleep and sat up stretching while looking around. Sari was still fast asleep in her sleeping bag, while I saw Prime walk out from the hallway. "Morning Optimus, did you sleep well?" I had asked him. He looked to me and smiled while walking over.

"Good Morning Zen, and yes I slept fine. How about yourself?"
"I slept fine as well." I told him while getting out of my sleeping bag then walking over to my bike, where my backpack was located. Prime watched me as I grabbed my work clothes out.

"You're getting ready early, are you going somewhere?" He asked me and I nodded to him.

"Yeah I'm heading out to work, I just have to change first." I told him while grabbing my extra clothes from my bag. I had walked into a separate room that was near the assembly line, that looked to be the old workers break room. I had shut the door and changed my clothes. After I had changed I looked around the room. Maybe, I can turn this room into a place for me to do some work, and a place where Sari and I can keep our own refrigerated food.. I should ask Prime if I can do renovations in here. I thought to myself. I had picked my clothes up and walked out of the room to my bike not noticing the others were awake and in the living room until I heard someone say my name. I looked over and to the bots and saw them all staring at me along with Sari. "Yeah wassup?" I asked them as I raised a brow and put my hair into a low ponytail this time for work. Bee had tilted his head.
"Where are you going so early this morning?" Bee asked me, but before I could say anything Sari spoke up.
"Ooo, are you going to work? Can I come with you?!" She asked all excited.
"Sorry Sari, you can't come with me today." I told her while putting my things in my bag and closing it. She groaned and pouted at me. The others seemed interested and asking what was on all their minds Prowl asked, "Where do you work Zen?" I looked to them and stretched then sat on my bike.
"I work at the Dancing Dragon Cafe, which is owned by my parents." I told them in reply.
"When will you be back?" Bulkhead had asked me.
"My shift ends later on tonight since the Club will be opened tonight." I told him in return. Being confused Optimus raised in optic ridge.
"Club? I thought you said you worked at a cafe." He said crossing his arms. Before I could tell him Sari jumped in again.
"Her family's Cafe is in one building, while they have a nightclub connected next door. It's a really cool place, even though I never been there at night." Sari said to the guys as I nodded at them, to confirm what she had said.

"What do you do, at your jobs kid?" Ratchet asked next. I looked to him saying,
"At the cafe, I work as a Waitress, while at the club I work as a barista, and sometimes a DJ when we don't have a person to make music."
"Whats a DJ?" Bee asked me, I told him Dj stood for a disc jockey, It is a person who mixes different sources of pre-existing recorded music as it is playing, usually for a live audience in a nightclub or dance club or via broadcasting. He just nodded in understanding after that. I looked at my watch and put my helmet on. "Sorry you guys I need to head out now I will see you all later." I told them as I started up my bike. Sari and them all waved to me saying goodbye and have a safe trip to work. I told them I would and left.

Time Skip

I had finally gotten to work which only took me a short amount of time. Thank to the heavens there was no traffic. I thought to myself as I pulled up into the back of the building parking my bike and went through the back door. As I walked in I saw my mother working on some foods for the day. "Morning Mom." I said to her as I kissed her cheek. She smiled to me and turned back to making the food while saying,
"Morning Sweetie, how was your sleepover last night with Sari and your friends?" I stopped for a second when she asked me that before I continued putting my apron on. I can't tell her 'Oh yeah it was going great until we almost died' she would never let me go back there ever again. I thought to myself then smiled at her.

"Oh it went great, we told stories played some games. It was real lively and exciting. It was different then ones I been to before." I said,and she just nodded.
"Well that's good, I am glad you had fun. Your father needs to talk to you when you see him alright." She told me and I nodded going to the front room. Why does dad need to talk to me..I don't think I did anything wrong. I thought to myself and then went to the bar area to clean some cups. My dad had just come out of the supplies closet and turned the sign from closed to open. He came over to me and helped clean the glasses.
"So mom said you needed to talk to me." I said to my dad turning to him. He nodded and turned to me.
"Well, about your sleepover last night. Who were those friends you and Sari were with?" He asked me and I stopped cleaning my glass a little shocked he asked that.

"Just some new friends of hers that's all, why?" I asked in return. Why is he asking about this now? What do I tell him..
"Are these new friends the Autobots?" He asked me. I was shocked and looked at him. "By the look on your face I am right." He said while putting the glass he finished cleaning away and gave a customer who came in, their coffee.

"H-How did you know?" I asked him still in slight shock.
"I'm your dad I know when you don't tell me everything, june-bug. I also remember that day you cried over them getting hurt and telling me they were your friends." I blinked and face palmed hard. How can I forget I told him about them being my friends.. I looked to my dad and then looked down.
"Are you mad I didn't tell you I was going there.. I'm sorry I lied.. I just knew you and mom would ask where their base was, but I promised them I wouldn't tell anybody." I told my dad the truth not looking at him. I then felt his hand on my head making me look up at him.
"I understand Zenstria, you just want to protect your friends. We won't make you tell us where they live. But tell us you are going to see them. Heck I trust them enough, and already know you will be safe with them. But one day your mother and I would like to meet them though alright?" My dad said to me and I smiled nodding. Thanking him for letting me still go see my new friends. After our chat I got to work taking the customers orders.

Time Skip Dusk

It was just about time for the club to open, I was helping my parents set everything up. Tonight was going to be a long night, like any other night working the club. I looked around the club to make sure everything was in place. There were couch like chairs around some tables, a dance floor and the DJ area was in the back. I walked over to the bar to help dad with the drinks. As I walked over I looked at the bar. There were a variety of drinks on the back counter with an array of glasses to go with them. On the wall there was a big mirror with a long dragon decoration in front of it. Getting behind the bar, the door opened to let people into the night club. Alright here we go..I wonder what the bots are doing right now. I thought as people started to order drinks and food while music was blaring in the background.

With The Autobots - Narrator POV

It has just turned dusk and the Autobots were in the Living Room area within the Autobot HQ.

"We' still have a lot to learn about Earth customs, and the best way is to keep our optical and auditory sensors opened." Prime said to the bots while having his arms crossed over his chasy. Bulkhead was tossing an oil barrel up and down in his hand while listening to Prime. "So let's get started." Bulkhead told Prime while transforming his shoulder scoop like things into a makeshift seat and sat down in them while holding the barrel of oil in his servos. Prowl had turned the TV on to a random channel.

"We got over five-thousand channels, to monitor here." Bulkhead said while stabbing a straw into the barrel, and drinking it. The tv showed a commercial about getting premium mega fuel, showing a lady putting gas into a car. "That looks like that hurts." Bulkhead said looking uncomfortable. Then two cars showed up speeding towards each other on the tv and cashing into one another. Prowl gasped and said , "Not as much as that." Then he changed the channel, to a man wearing a white suit, grey coat, sunglasses, and had blond hair and dark skin. He was in the middle of a wrestling arena with a spotlight on him.

"Do you have a dream, of being thinner, taller, faster, even stronger? Well these people did." He said showing two people on the screen. "And they turned their dreams into reality." The photos on the screen then turned around showing the people looking different, like being more healthy. "And you, can do that to. With my bio-chemical makeover!" He said pointing to the screen.

"Ah, human upgrades. What will they think of next?" Prime asked no one with closing his eyes. Back on the tv the man was still talking.

"Hi there, I'm Prometheus Black, and I can transform you. You're still not convinced." He said while smirking at the camera. "Well then you better watch one of my greatest bio-enhanced stories in action." He continues while the crowd started to cheer. "You see them every day, they clean your house, teach your children, and take your jobs, but tonight man will triumph over machine. In a no bars hold fight to the finished." Black said as the spot light got bigger.

"What ram damaged, programming impaired bot would agree to be in such a degrading spectacle?" Ratchet asked no one as he leaned his left arm on his leg and right hand on his knee. Back to the tv there showed a tall figure in a white hooded robe and a small red haired child behind them.

"Representing the machines I give you..BUMBLEE!" Black said pointing towards the now uncovered figure showing the small bot that the autobots knew. Bulkhead then spit out the oil he had in his mouth, with wide eyes at the screen. "WHAT?!" he yelled.

Bumblebee POV

The light was shining down on me. Black had just called my name and I was looking around with my arms up for the cheering crowd. "Hey good evening Detroit." When I looked around I noticed everyone was booing me instead of cheering. What the heck is going, on shouldn't they be cheering me on. I turned to Sari to see if she knew why and she just looked back at me shrugging her shoulders.

"And now, representing the human race, I give you Syrus the Colossus Rhodes!" Black said and this tiny green man with white long mustache, and wearing a black suit with these metal things on his back showed up. He waved to everyone and they were cheering for him. Common that's not fair! I thought to myself as I watched him. I walked up to him with my hands on my waist. He doesn't look so tough I should go easy on him. Black told us may the man win. I got to his level and whispered to him. "Don't worry little guy, heh, I will go easy on you." I told him with a smile. He looked back up at me and told me, "Don't do me any favors machine." He had a mad look on his face too. The bell rang and those things on his back went out of his body then back in making his huge. "Who's the little guy now?" He asked me now standing about two heads taller. I gasped and blinked looking up at him surprised.

Narrator POV

Bumblebee was picked up by his head, by Colossus, and thrown across the ring. He was then shot back from the rope into Colossus punch. Bumblebee then was on the ground sprawled out, the crowd was cheering for Colossus. Up in the VIP section Captain Fanzone sat watching the fight while holding a hotdog. A machine came up asking him to choose a condiment, every time he tried it kept asking him the same question while he was getting mad. He kicked the machine and got mustard all over his hotdog. He threw his hotdog at the machine, then it asked if he wanted a napkin and it shot them at the Captain from its dispenser. "This is why I hate machines." He muttered to himself cleaning his hand off. Black caming walking in talking to the Captain.

"I knew we had something in common Captain Fanzone." He said while sitting in the seat right next to the captain. "Enjoying the luxury box?"

"Eh not to mention the VIP parking, the complementary neck massage, and the cupon for one free bio-enhancement. You wouldn't be trying to influence the Detroit Police Department in any way now would you ?" The Captain respond to him in a concerned voice.

"Captain, I am a humble businessman. I merely wish to demonstrate my product under ideal conditions." Black said back to the Captain. They had turned back to the ring and watched the fight continue.

"So what's the trick?" Captain had asked Black.

"Electronic pulses stimulate intermental steroids. That I introduced into his body. As you can see Captain, my bio technology is far superior to robotic technology because the human brain controls it. " Black replied to the captain still watching the match. "Picture a brand new police force, with bio-enhanced human officers instead of those mindless Sumdac robot drones."

"You know me I never been to crazy about sending machines to do a man's job." The captain said looking up at Black as his arm was around the Captain.

"Well you don't have to Captain if you choose my Biotech over Sumdac's robots." He replied to the Captain onces again, letting go of the captains shoulder.

Zen POV

We had just closed and finished cleaning up. Dad had turned on the tv to this match everyone was talking about. I had looked up and saw Bee getting his butt kicked by this giant guy. "What the name in the Allspark is going on?!" I had yelled slamming my hands onto the table. After he was thrown once again Sari went up to Bee and fixed him up with her key. "Wait Sari is there too?!" I got an irk mark on my head and headed to the arena, explaining to my dad what was going on and got on my bike spreading down to the arena. Once I had got there, people were running away and the giant guy from before held a dumpster over his head. "BUMBLEBEE!" I had yelled at the same time as Sari. I drove over to Bee and pulled him away from the big guy, before he could get crushed. He laid on the ground and I looked up towards the big guy. I growled lightly, at him. No one hurts my friends and get away with it. Sari was about to patch Bee up but he was pulled back by Colossus. "Bee!" I yelled towards him, as he was thrown at a car next to me and Sari. Then Colossus picked up another car and was about to throw it. "Bee move!" I yelled at him and he got up in time to miss the car. An explosion happened, and Bumblebee was on the ground.

"Stand and fight,what are ya yellow?" Colossus said to Bee while staring at him on the ground.

"Well, duh." Bee said in return and I face palmed. I don't know is more idiotic, muscle head here or, Bee for his comebacks. I thought to myself sighing. Looking over I saw a blond guy with the Captain.

"Call off your over grown gorilla." Captain said to the mystery man, looking mad, like normal.

"It's not like he has an off switch." The man replied to the Captain, I just stared at him and then shouted.

"THEN WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THIS YA BLOND BUFFOON?" I said really pissed off at the moment. Turning back to Bee I saw Colossus about to throw another car. "Ands what's with you and cars, you gorilla!" I was getting so mad I was about to ram my back into this idiot. He threw the car and when it was about to hit Bee, Ratchet came to the rescue and stopped it from hitting him. "Yeah, way to go Doc!" I yelled cheering for the medic.

"Looks like you went over your head again kid." Ratchet said still holding the car with his magnet pulse.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Bee asked him, which made me facepalm again.

"Bee I'm really debating if I should just let him get one more smack in on you or if I should." I told him making him look at me. The other bots showed up behind Ratchet and I smiled at them happy they came to help as well.

"Mute it, we got bigger problems." Optimus said to us while keeping an optic on Colossus.

"W-W-W-What? Bigger than me?" Bee had asked Prime staring at him as he got up off the ground.

"What are you talking about?" Prime asked back. I just looked at Bee and wanting to know the same thing. Not paying attention Colossus came running up to us, but Bulkhead went running at him too. To me it looked like they were playing football. Bulkhead took him down and made a creator in the ground.

"Oh just rub it in, why don't ya!" Be had yelled putting his hands in the air.

"What? What I say?" Bulkhead asked Bee as he got up from the creator, but then he was kicked off by Colossus and landed on a car. I ran over to Bulkhead asking if he was okay, and he said he was fine. Colossus's markings started to turn a lucent green and blinking. His hands went on his head and he looked like he was in pain. Wait.. Is the car alarm doing something?! I thought as I watched him. "Prowl!" I said looking at him and he seemed to notice to. He threw his shuriken at Colossus's metal things on his back making them explode and knocking him out turning him back into the small guy that he was.

"Good thinking Prowl." Optimus said smiling at Prowl. "Way to cut him down to size." Prowl then had landed next to Bee. I had shut my bike off for a moment and parked it near Bulkhead. I got off my bike and walked over to the other bots. Prowl hit BumbleBee on the head.

"Next time use your your foes weakness and then strike there." He told Bee, while I just nodded.

"He has a point Bee, you could of gotten hurt, so could have Sari."

"If you can reach it." Bulkhead added in, I just looked at him and tried to hold back a snicker.

"Oh right, I get it cause I'm short." Bee replied looking away from Bulkhead.

"What I'm just busting your bumpers a little buddy." He said to Bee as Optimus walked over to us.

"Why does it have to be little buddy? Why can't it just be buddy?" He asked as the Ratched came over with Sari. Ratchet then picked Sari and I up. I on one had while she sat on the other.

"What's with him?" Ratched asked them.

"He is just mad since everyone keeps calling him short." I told Ratchet laughing.

"Yeah she is right he was just mad cause, he came up a little short." Bulkhead said and we all started laughing more.

"OKAY NOW YOU'RE DOING IT ON PURPOSE!" BumbleBee yelled at us.

Narrator POV

Over with the Captain and Black the looked on at the Autobots. "That's it, I'm telling the Mayor to scrap your contracts. I'll take those Sumdac rust buckets over this mess anytime!" He yelled at Black angrily. Black then grabbed the Captains tie and said angrily,

"You can not do this , I'll be ruined."

"Not my problem, Mr. Black." Said the Captain as he made Black let go of his tie and walked off. Black looked at the Captain with hate as he continue to walk off. As Black was about to walk off he looked down and saw a scrap piece of metal from Bumblebee with his oil on it. He picked it up and examined it smiling he had gotten an idea. "This is not over." He said to himself.

Time Skip

Black had gone to his own research lab and was conducting experiments to combine the autobots, fluids, with his steroids. He had discovered a way to melt their plating. He told all this to Powell on the monitor screen.

"All very well Prometheus, but your investors are still furious about the negative publicity, from that wrestling match." He told Black with his hands up in front of him.

"I will make them forget all about Colossus Rhodes. I just need time, money and a new human test subject." Black told back to Powell.

"Not a chance, even the prisoners won't give you test subjects are cutting out loses, and your funding."

"You can't do that!" Black yelled at Powell and slammed his fist onto the table. Powell turned away from Black and told him sorry, then ended the call. Black called Powell a fool and destroyed a beaker with his experiment in it, by crashing it to the floor. The chemical started to smoke and cover the whole area. Black looked around and the fire alarm went off. As the chemical let loose it melted through the metal from Bumblebee and the table. The smoke started to cover Black he couldn't see and he started to cough. He covered his face his body started to turn green and melty like sludge. He got out of his lab and held onto the wall from where the door opened. "They'll pay for this.. They'll all pay.."

The Next Day Zen POV

It was the next day after the whole Bumblebee wrestling thing. I was in a meeting with Sari, , Captain Fanzone, and the Mayor. The meeting was for 's new police robots. With this giant new robot I had helped with the schematics for him to build.

"Today we unveil, the newest model of the Sumdac Systems police drone." Mr. Sumdac said to his audience. It was deathly quiet for a few minutes. "Not only is it larger and faster but it also has improved recognition software." He continued as he pressed a button on his remote. The drone started to move around. "So we don't have a repeat of that..Unfortunate incident. With the Captain's wife." Yeah it was sad what happened to her.. I thought looking over to Captain, he was giving a look. The drone had moved to the target and was about to attack it when sparks started appearing near its arm. It then exploded, Captain Fazone yelled look out and jumped on the Mayor to protect him and I shielded Sari. "Oh dear it wasn't supposed to do that. I am so sorry." apologized to them. I uncovered Sari and looked over at them.

"Call us when you get those bugs worked out." The Captain replied and they all started to leave.

"My regards to your wife Captain." said, to the Captain waving. I waved to all of them as well.

"Drive back home safe everyone." I told them as I looked over at the now destroyed robot. Man I wonder what happened to it. I thought to myself crossing my arms. Mr. Sumdac then turned to the Robot where Sari and I walked over to. "Hey Zen look at this." Sari said to me and I got down next to her to see what she found. "Is this suppose to look like that?" She asked me showing me a piece of metal with green sludge like stuff on it.

"No it shouldn't, let's take it to Ratchet and see if he can find out what it is." I told her and picked it up. She nodded and we went to my bike and got on, heading to the bots home.

Time Skip to Autobot Base

We had gotten to the base and showed Ratchet what we found at the showing. "Definitely sabotage." Ratchet told us, looking at the metal while Sari was on his shoulder. "But I've never seen a corosess like this." He took some of the sludge off and dropped it onto a new piece of mettle. "It can even melt Autobot aloi." I blinked at hearing him say that.

"So what you're saying is someone made a sludge that can even hurt you guys?" I said surprised. He nodded at me then turned to the others.

"I like to run some more tests. It should only take a few hours." He told them, Bee then piped up being the non patient bot he is.

"That long?" He asked. I then shook my head walking over to Prowl and Bulkhead.

"His attention span is short too." Bulkhead said to Prowl and I. I chuckled lightly and patted Bulkheads leg. "Don't be pushing his buttons to much Bulkhead." I told him with a smile.

"I heard that! And Zen don't laugh at his jokes!" Bee yelled at us in a sassy way with his hands on his hips.

"Apparently so is his fuse." Prowl said and I looked up at him with a shocked face. Holy shit the Ninja got in on it! I thought as Bulkhead turned to Prowl for a high five.

"Woah the ninja bot gets in a good one." Bulkhead said and Prowl gave him a high five back.

"Who knew he had it in him." Ratchet said with a smile. I just shrugged at them shaking my head.

"Yeah, aren't you supposed to be the strong silent type, emphasis on the SILENT." Bee said looking away from them all. Sari then jumped down from the doc bots shoulder to the ground.

"Knock it off you motor heads. We've got to warn my dad. He could be in trouble." Sari said to us. Optimus then said his normal catchphrase of transform and roll out. Sari and I rode in Bee, as we left the base. On our way to the tower Sari called her dad to warn him.

"Dad, those breakdown's this morning were no accidents, it was sabotage." Sari told him. He looked at us.

"Sabotage, is this true Zen?" He asked me and I nodded telling him it was true. "But who would want to..?" He asked again.

"I think I know who.. I suspect it was.." I was about to finish when the elevator dinged and a voice said,

"Isaac Sumdac, we need to talk." The door had melted showing a sludge figure. I saw his glasses and finally said, "So I was right it is Black! run!" I yelled at him but he sat there frozen in fear in his seat.

We had finally arrived at the tower, Bee went speeding towards the tower. "Last one in is a rusted axle." He said. Then Sari and I started to warn him. "Wait!" We yelled at him but it was to late and he ran into the invisible force field. We were sent flying as he was on the ground. "Sari!"

I yelled to her and reached out to grab her, but I couldn't reach. As we were falling to the ground, Optimus transformed and caught Sari, and I was caught by Prowl.

"Got'cha" Prime said as he held Sari and Prowl held me. I looked to Prowl and thanked him with a smile which he returned.

"What the spark was that?" Bee had asked. Optimus and Prowl put Sari and I to the ground. Sari started to explain. "A force field, when the tower is under attack it goes into auto defense mode." I just looked at the force field and sighed. "Its kinda a bugged design.." I said and Bee agreed calling it dumb.

"If your dad is in trouble, how are we supposed to get inside to save him?" Bee had asked Sari. I looked up at the force field then took my phone out looking up the schematics for it. The others looked at me, "What are you doing?" Prime asked me.

"Looking up the schematics for this to see if there is a so called 'back door' to take it down." I told him.

"How do you have this information, Zen?" Prowl asked next.

"She works with my dad sometimes to come up with the designs, she is pretty smart when it comes to this stuff, but she loves to draw it out even more." Sari told them, they all nodded and then started to think of their own ways in. After a few mins, I looked to Ratchet.

"Can you use your electromagnets to see if you can make an opening?" I asked him and he got his magnets out.

"Leave that to me." His magnet pulse started to disrupt the force fields patterns and opened up a whole to let us in. "Nice work Doc!" I said to him smiling big. "Lets head in and save Sari's dad." I said to them.

"I don't think so." said a voice from behind us. We looked behind us and saw Colossus Rhodes. He started to become huge again using the metal things on his back. He grabbed a pole out of nowhere and knocked Prime over while Prowl used his jet things to move out of the way. I ran over to Prime to see if he was okay. Prowl threw his shuriken at the metal things like last time but nothing happened. Colossus turned around and told Prowl that Black reinforced that little weak spot on him. Prime and Bulkhead started to run at the guy to try and distract him. Colossus then knocked Prowl over with his pole. Prime had dodged and told Sari and I to go try and deactivate the auto defense, while Bee and Prowl went to save her dad. I growled and took a device out of my pocket. "Hell no! I am staying here and fighting. I don't want to just stand back and let you guys get hurt more!" I pressed the button on the device turning it into a baseball bat, that had helped me build a while back. Prime just gave me a stern look and said, "You're the only one who knows how the system works so go and help Sari, you need to protect her!" I growled again and ran following Sari. "Fine but next time I get to fight!" I yelled at him. We ran through the hole and before Prowl could get in Bulkhead's butt got caught into it, making Bee fall over. I had pulled Sari out of the way so she wouldn't get crushed.

Prowl tried taking Bulkhead out of the barrier. "Bulkhead move your oversized fender!" He told him as he continued but failed to pull Bulkhead out.

"I can't, I'm sorta stuck here!" He told Prowl back.

"I can't open the field any wider! Bumblebee you'll have to go on alone!" Ratchet told him through the field. Bee looked at him surprised, "Oh lucky me." I sighed and we headed into the building. When we got in I looked at the secretary bot. "Oh no Brenda is gone!" I said and Sari looked at me.

"Brenda?" Sari asked me looking at me funny.

"Yeah that's what I named her." I told her shrugging. Then I saw Bee going to the elevator. I knew Sari would be safe, I gave her the phone explaining it has everything step by step what to do and ran over to Bee to go help him stop Black. When we got up there, there stood Black infront of .

"Hey leave him be!" I yelled at him. Bee had hit black in car mode and then grabbed Mr. Sumdac, and put him inside his car mode. Black shot sludge at Bee only getting a few drops on him. "Hey, watch the paint job!" Bee said to him while driving away.
"You okay Bee?" I asked him looking at his divers wheel, he told me he was just a little scratch. I looked in the rearview mirror and saw Black coming after us.

"You're not going anywhere machine!" He yelled at us shooting more sludge.

"If this is about the wrestling match, I'm retired from the ring!" Bee replied turning around and zooming past him. "Fasten your seatbelts, it's gonna be a bumpy ride!" He said while breaking through a door then driving down stairs. I held onto the seat yelling at Bee. "Have you lost your motherboard you metal head!" When we got downstairs, Bee let us out. was dizzy, and Sari came up to us hugging her dad happy he was safe. Looking over after hearing a thud I saw Black standing there. He went to attack Sari and her dad, but Bee got in front of him.

"Leave them alone!" Bulkhead said running over and grabbed Black in his servo's.

"Ah you wish to give them a hand, so be it." Black said and then Bulkhead screamed out in pain as his servo started to melt.
"BULKHEAD!" I yelled, growling with my bat still in had I went to attack Black after Bulkhead dropped him. "How DARE YOU HURT MY FRIENDS!" I yelled at him and when I was about to swing at him he shot his sludge at me and hit me in the arm cause me to scream out in pain, falling to the ground dropping my bat, and causing Sari to run over to me with her dad.

"Are you okay?" She asked me, but I couldn't reply to her because I was in so much pain. My vision started to go blurry and then everything went dark. The last thing I heard was the scared and worried voices of my friends.

Meanwhile Outside Narrator POV

There were cars thrown everywhere broken on the ground. Car alarms were going off, Optimus, Ratchet and Prowl were all hiding behind a group of cars as a barricade.

"We've tried everything, what's it take to bring this guy down?" Optimus asked the other two bots. Then Colossus showed up behind them with his fist in the air.

"More then you've got tincan." He said to them and jumped up bringing his fist down to smash them. He missed but then hit Prime with his other hand making him go flying. Prime was sent straight into the bell on a building near by, causing it to ring and him grunt out in pain. The bell rings caused Colossus to short circuit. Prowl noticed and yelled to Optimus and Ratchet.

"The bell! Hit it again!" He said to Prime, and then Prime took his axe out and started to hit the bell over and over again.

"The frequency must disrupt his techno-organic circuits." Ratchet then took the bell in his magnet pulse and put it over Colossus, while Optimus kept hitting it over and over again. They continued to do this until Colossus was small and unconscious.

Back Inside

With a now unconscious Zen, Bulkhead gotten his grip back on Meltdown until his grip started to falter again. Bulkhead started to fall to his knees, and Meltdown was about to shoot sludge at him but Bee got in the way and took the hit for him. Sari yelled Bee's name and ran over to him leaving Zen by herself. Meltdown now out of Bulkhead's hand walked over to Isaac.

"Now it's your turn." Meltdown said aiming his hand at Isaac. Then came in Optimus with the bell. "I don't think so." He said and threw the bell onto Meltdown. "There that should hold him." But Optimus was wrong, the bell started to melt away from the sludge.

"Guess you didn't get the memo about the acid that melts through anything." Ratchet said to Prime watching Meltdown come out of the bell.

"Fools nothing can hold me." Meltdown said shooting his acid at the bots. They moved out of the way in time.

"Any suggestions on how to stop him?" Prowl asked the others.

"Hey how about using the one thing that stopped us." Prime said looking at Ratchet talking about the force field from earlier.

"Zen, Sari! The Auto defense field!" He yelled at the girls, not noticing where Zen was yet. Sari yelled to them saying okay, and went to turn the field. Ratchet connected his cable to the system and used his magnet powers to make the field around Meltdown. Meltdown then tried to use his acid to break throw the bubble which was getting smaller and smaller until her was in a sitting position but it never worked. "You can't melt, what you can't touch!" Ratchet told him. "I say let him stew in his own juices." Ratchet told them, looking around at everyone, then he noticed Zen on the ground. "What in the blazes happened to Zen!" He yelled causing the others to go to her unconscious body. Sari told them what happened and fixed Bee and Bulkhead up. She was still worried about Zen and they took her to the hospital for treatment.

Zen POV

I had just woken up and my shoulder was in deep pain. I looked around and saw my mom, dad, and Sari in my room. "Um, where am I?" I asked looking around. All their heads shot towards me and Sari ran over hugging me. "Zen you're alright!" She yelled crying a bit. I hugged her back.

"Of course I am, why wouldn't I be?" I asked her. That's when my mom looked at me.

"Don't you remember anything?" She asked me, I nodded and told her, "I remember about to attack Meltdown, cause he was hurting my friends but then I got hit by something and pain was in my body then I passed out." I told her and she nodded telling me what the Autobots said. The doctor then came in telling me that I was lucky I was only grazed by the acid. So I just had to be careful for a few days. Then I was discharged from the hospital. To my surprise all the bots were out there.

"Guys why are you all here?" I asked them looking surprised.

"We were worried about you kid, we wanted to know if you were alright." Ratchet said to me making me smile. I told them I was alright and the doctor said I just had to take it easy for a few days.

"That's good." Prime said to me then turned to my parents with an apologetic look. "And I'm sorry we let this happen to your daughter. I wish we had met on different circumstances." My father looked at him and smiled.

"Yes I do as well, but I do not blame you for her getting hurt. Zen here has always been a magnet for trouble." My father said to him. Then my mother looked at them starting to say something. "I do not blame you either. I know if you could have, you would of protected her. Somethings just can't be avoided." Mom said to him. Optimus smiled too, then the bots started to talk about what happened at the fight to me afterwards.

"Big help you were Bulkhead. Why don'tcha just write a big bullseye over that oversized chest plate of yours." Bumblebee said to Bulkhead with a smile.

"I gotta admit though kid, for a little bot you got a great big spark." Ratchet said to Bee with his own smile, making the rest of us smile as well.

"You showed a lot of courage, taking that hit for Bulkhead. And Zen you showed courage today as well for trying to help your friends." Optimus said to both me and Bumblebee praising us.

"Sorry about yanking your crain-case. I was just having a little fun." Bulkhead told be feeling sorry. My parents looked at me in a questioning way and I said I will explain it to them later.

"Little did you say little?" Bumblebee said looking at Bulkhead and then Bulkhead told him,
"No, I mean..Well yeah but I didn't mean!" He said trying to fix himself. Bee then transformed running circles in the middle of the parking lot.

"I may be small, but I'm scrappy, and I can run circles around your big all rusty chassis. You know I got major skills." He said back to Bulkhead and we all just stared at him. I just started laughing at Bee and him being immature. Then I turned to Sari as she talked.

"He's gonna be impossible to live with now, isn't he?" She asked looking up at the bots.

"Oh yeah, big time." Ratchet and I said to her smiling.
