Chapter four
Sari sat there staring at the yellow mech. Every one was by his side and watching him playing a video game trying to beat her score. Though she has to admit he was pretty good for a beginner.
"Watch the other drivers they like ramming you off the road!" Starscream shouted, Bumblebee car paused as the car rammed it self into an-other beside and sped forward.
"can't touch me." Bumblebee said, his yellow and black stripped car (yes it looks like his alt mode) sped forward and crossed the finish line. Sari was now smiling. "What?" Bumblebee asked.
"Now here is the part where you face the boss…no one but me can handle." Sari said and sat down, everyone watched the screen when a cherry red car came out and over ride it's gears. Bumblebee smirks and pressed the driver trigger doing the same thing. Then both cars were off, neck to neck. Sari watched and saw certain things to allow her to win this game. Bumblebee blue optics looked for movement and then pressed the break when the cherry red car swings side wards ramming it self to the railing. Bumblebee car florid it able to get ahead. Sari eyes stared at the screen seeing him long passed her high score.
"You close to the finish line!" Random Blitzwing shouted; The yellow muscle car then turned sharply in a corner and gone through it.
"What are you doing?" Starscream screeched.
"Short-cut." Those were the only words that came to Bumblebee said before the finish line was now closer. Sari then stood with her mouth gape. The cherry red right on his heels if not a few leaks away. Bumblebee then used his nitro and gotten further ahead even crossed the finish line. Starscream cheered and Random picked up Bumblebee and hugged him as he laughed like a maniac. Sari stood there staring at the screen as the name Bumblebee replaced her in first place bumping her to second. She turned to see the Decepticons around Bumblebee. Bumblebee had a wide grin on his face and took in all the praise as his nerves started to wreck a bit. Megatron stood by Sari with a small smile on his face.
"Can you believe the act?" Megatron head turns and his optics lowered to Sari. "Him acting all so innocent and caring; but that is a lie."
"Sari," Megatron crouched down and Sari looked up at him, "He isn't the auto-bots we know here."
"And you fall for trick!" Sari glared her eyes falling on Bumblebee, "He will betray us by the first chance he gets…I'll prove it to you."
"Sari, I think your jumping to conclusions; how about he takes you home." Megatron stood up and looked over at the group.
"What? But it's Starscream turn to take me home!" Sari wasn't believing what she was hearing; an auto-bot nice and friendly? Megatron just looked at her.
"It gives you the chance to get to know him, Sari. Along the fact I won't allow Nemesis to get that Fragment Bumblebee has." Sari eyes lit up.
"You only care for Bumblebee…He is an Auto-bot and he is dangerous along the fact he knows this base and anything else. How do you know the stunt earlier today wasn't some trap to lure us in and believe he is different?"
"There's a difference between trying to kill someone and pretending to kill someone with those atuo-bots. But if it was a trick they wouldn't even neither hit him nor will Nemesis even bothered to give dents and scratches in his plating." Megatron replied.
Sari growled and turned to the door, only for that to be a queue for Starscream to move forward.
"Ready to leave Sari?" Starscream asked with a small smile and she just nodded.
"Starscream," Both of them turned to him and the others did the same, "Let Bumblebee do it." Megatron said and the yellow bot stiffen a bit and then nodded. He ran up to the door with a bright smile. Sari just glared and walked out and Bumblebee did the same.
"Be safe kid." Starscream said and Bumblebee changed into his alt mode and Sari getting in.
"Can't promise anything screamer." Bumblebee said and Sari slammed the door shut and stared at the steering wheel.
O.O
Nemesis was watching the screen and smirked when Bumblebee was the only one to take the organic home. He got up and left only to be tailed by Sentinal and Blurr, he looked back at them and stopped.
"What is it?" Nemesis glowered at them not in the mood nor have time to deal with them.
"Got-some-news-for-ya!" Blurr said quickly, his red optics narrowing. His black armor dazing, with light streaks from the light hitting it.
"What is it?" Nemesis asked. Sentinal looking between them.
"The yellow bot is known for speed." Sentinal said and Blurr rolled his optics.
"Along-the-fact-he-is-still-a-scout…But-don't-question-his-speed-he-can-be-sleak-as-me-but-more-nosey…But-how-he-was-able-to-beat-your-team-was-another-fact-he-has-an-all-spark-shard-stuck-as-his-life-force." Blurr said. Nemesis C.P.U snapped and he stared at him: So that signal wasn't a miss-calculation.
"How?" Nemesis asked.
"It-appears-he-should-have-been-off-line-only-the-fragment-was-nearby-to-make-sure-that-doesn't-happened…and-him-being-from-another-universe-also-means-the-possiablity-their-Megatron-is-evil-and-maybe-killed-him…" Blurr said and Sentinal smirked. Nemesis nodded and left.
"Good work Blurr." Nemesis said and left the base.
"Hey, why didn't he congratulate me?" Sentinal said and Blurr glared at him.
"Because-your-a-fuck-tard-and-you-can't-do-anything-right!" Blurr answered only getting a glare from Sentinal.
O.O
Sari didn't care if the yellow mech said he was a good guy; an auto-bot is evil no matter what. She glared at the red auto-bot sign on the steering wheel. Bumblebee was sleek when he moved and didn't contract any attention from the cops or other machines.
Sari was a bit amazed and figured he moved a lot around the city without anyone noticing. She saw her father's tower in view and Bumblebee drove to the front door and opened his door letting Sari out.
"Umm Sari." Bumblebee started and the organic girl looked at him.
"What?"
"I know you don't trust me and all but…can you at least give me a chance." Bumblebee said feeling his spark burning in dull pain. Sari shook her head: That would be the day a die. She didn't care if Blitzwing said the fragment might go off by any action; even her.
"I know Blitzwing or Megatron says you're different but I don't believe." Sari said as she turns to the yellow and black streak car, "I don't trust you no matter what, and if you even dare show signs of betrayal I will make sure my friends off-line you completely!" Sari shouted and turned and head inside. Bumblebee sat there by the sidewalk. His spark was now throbbing with pain and he couldn't help but feel betrayed and crushed.
"Oh…" was the only word he can come up with and drove off back to the warehouse. Bumblebee body shook from the pain as he continued to drive, un-aware of being followed. Nemesis was tailing Bumblebee his spark cans sense some confusion and pain imitating from the yellow mini-bot. The organic human did something to him and he wanted to rip her in half for it. Though right now the yellow mech needed some help and comfort. He saw the Warehouse and in view only to stop when Bumblebee did. Could he notice he was being followed?
Bumblebee changed into his Cybertronian form and walked to the base, head hung low and some oily tears sliding down his face. Nemesis did the same and watched the yellow mech slowly move to his destination. That organic did a lot of damage then he thought, his spark was in a painful hay-wire trying to calm it-self down with thoughts and short memories of their friendship. Bumblebee didn't know what to do now, Sari; his pal and friend won't even give him a chance. How could he be the same now? He was afraid and he knew his friends back home was probity crying over him or celebrating. Bumblebee shook his head at the second though Sentinal would be the only one happy with his demise. He saw a glimpse of something moving ahead of him and looked up seeing Megatron coming near him. Bumblebee stopped and stared, forgetting the oily tears sliding down his face.
Megatron felt the presence of Bumblebee and how sad and hurt his spark was. He left to make sure nothing bad happened to his little beetle, only to see him walking slowly to the base with tears. Nemesis hid and muttered under his breath. He was supposed to be the one to help the yellow bug through this pain not Megatron. Megatron sighed knowing Sari did something to bring Bumblebee into this state and wrapped his arms around him. Bumblebee let out soft sobs onto Megatron chest; his spark no longer able to stop him from breaking down into a mess.
Megatron lifted the yellow mini-bot and carried him into the base only to be greeted with worried faces and question concerning the yellow mech. He only said small things un-sure if Bumblebee spark will go off again like last time or the Fragment letting the yellow-mech go into his wish of off-lining. The fragment glowed softly allowing the glow to pass through Bumblebee optics. Icy face came to view o Blitzwing and checked the yellow mech; Sari did do something when he told her to be nice and trust him she didn't. He can tell Megatron wasn't to happy about it knew Sari was behind this. Icy sighed and told everyone to back up.
"vhere your room?" Icy said and Bumblebee head lifted he softly spoke where and Icy turned to Starscream. Icy opened his mouth only for Starscream to nod his head. Megatron walked towards Starscream room and opened the door to it; he slowly made his way to the berth and gently laid the fragile Mech down. Bumblebee curled up and letting soft sobs out. Megatron got up only for his servo to be latched on.
"Please don't leave." Bumblebee softly said and Megatron looked at him. He simply nodded and sat down by the berth lightly stroking the shoulders of the yellow mech. Bumblebee shivered at the contact and off-lined his optics still onto Megatron servo. He didn't care if he was the guy who tried to off-line him in his universe anymore, he didn't care he was a Decepticon anymore he only concerned is to be abandon and feel like no one cares about him. Megatron whispered sweet nothings as he continued to use his free servo to message Bumblebee back. Bumblebee sobs turned to quiet whimpers then nothing as his breath only hitched from small gasp trying to regulate his regular breathing. Megatron sat there still stroking the yellow mech, feeling his grip loosen but didn't dare leave. He laid his head down and stayed there un-sure if he leaves the fragment would act up sending Bumblebee into a spiral or Bumblebee doing something suicidal. Megatron could tell the yellow mech isn't the quiet type nor the thinking type. Megatron then fell into recharge; head on the berth and his body sitting next to it.
O.O
Nemesis was in rage when his plan didn't go as he wanted it to. He could have gone out of his hiding spot and fought, none of the mechs there were able to defeat him anyways but the thought of him harming Bumblebee in the process ceased him from doing the action. So many things can go wrong and Bumblebee was right in the middle. Nemesis felt the spark from the yellow mech looking for comfort not caring if was friend or foe it just needed to be healed and treated with love and care. Nemesis and muttering foul words in his language as Sentinal walked in.
"Seems the plan didn't go as planned now did it." Sentinal said and Nemesis stopped turning his head slightly as his crimson optics narrowed to glare at him. He was in no mood to deal with this peace of scrape. Sentinal mouth was raving on While Prowl, Jazz and Blurr were standing there looking half irritated. Nemesis slowly made his way to Sentinal and grabbed him y the neck and lifted him up. Everyone in the room froze and stared and the next thing they knew Sentinal was being smashed against the wall while gasping for air. Nemesis didn't care if Ultra Magnus was watching him right now (which he was on the video) of his brutality and rage. Nemesis through Sentinal across the room and Blurr moved out of the way when Sentinal body hit the table on full impact. Blurr looked over at Nemesis then hold his hands up and moved from the line of fire. Nemesis vents was cooling off from the display of pure bloody rage and looked up at the screen.
"Alright Nemesis, " Ultra Magnus started looking over the crippled Sentinal and then back to the prime, "I see your mission didn't go well in finding the spark fragment.." Nemesis shook his head and glared at Sentinal thinking he should off-line him then and there. "Also Sentinal tells me Bumblebee has returned from the well of sparks." Nemesis head shot up to the screen, "Is this true?"
"Sort of Magnus, the Bumblebee we encountered was from another Universe with a spark fragment wield into his spark, Ratchet said there is no possible way to remove it without off-lining him." Nemesis said as he walked to his chair and sat in it. Ultra Magnus nodded, he knew Nemesis always adored the little mech, though at times he was annoying and blabbers but he did give a sense of security when Nemesis is around. Their Bumblebee kept Nemesis from snapping on certain troops and though Sentinal (doesn't want to admit it out loud) was grateful a mech like that was there. But after his passing Nemesis became more cold and abusive then normal, everyone stayed out of his way when something didn't go right; he almost beaten Prowl to death for failing to get the spark fragment last time. Everyone mourn Nemesis for his lost and they mourned Bumblebee for leaving at a young age.
In short Nemesis wasn't the same after his Bumblebee passed. He even asked Ultra Magnus to bond with the little mech on the same day Bumblebee was off-lined. No one gone near him from that moment afraid of Nemesis might do and they held a memorial for the passing youth. What a cruel war this turned out to be.
"I see..." Ultra Magnus said and stares at Nemesis knowing he would get that mech to be with him even if he was not from their universe, "Don't do anything hasty Nemesis." Ultra Magnus said and Nemesis nodded and the screen went off. Nemesis sat there and sighed allowing his optics to off-line. Ever since they found Bumblebee to come back to them they thought things would get better around here and Nemesis would be happy, though after finding out that Megatron got his goody weak servos on him first. Blurr shook his head in pity and left; This is going to be a long and painful mission.
