Wheeljack was in his lab, building yet another invention. "Nice and easy" Wheeljack said to himself, he wanted this to work. "That's it" he said to himself, as he got to the end of construction. Suddenly all went wrong, he was at the other end of the room, grabbing the las piece required, when suddenly there was a click. That can't be good. He thought to himself, and then as with most if not all of his inventions... It exploded. Wheeljack tried to get down, but was struck by a flying chair, and ended up with minor wounds... More than he can say about his lab, his lab was completely unusable. "What the FRAG!!!" he yelled.

Suddenly Ratchet came running in. "Wheeljack, you ok?" he asked, looking around the destroyed lab.

"I'm fine Ratchet" he lied. Physically, he was fine... But mentally, he couldn't take another failed experiment or invention.

Ratchet looked down at Wheeljack. "Come on, let's get you to med bay" he said, as he helped Wheeljack to stand.

Just as Wheeljack and Ratchet were leaving, Mirage and Prowl were walking in. "What the farg happened?" Hirage asked, looking around at Wheeljack's lab.

"Failed invention" Ratchet whispered, not wanting to upset Wheeljack more. Mirage and Prowl nodded, and got to work fixing and repairing the lab, so it would be ready by the end of the week. Ratchet walked Wheeljack down to the med bay. Wheeljack sat down and allowed Ratchet to fix all his injuries. "You alright Jack?" Ratchet asked, noting how quiet the inventor was.

"Fine" Wheeljack answered, not more than a whisper. He just kept staring at the wall in fornt of him. What went fagging wrong this time? He asked himself, he just wanted one invention or experiment to work.

Ratchet kept fixing Wheeljacks wounds, and noticed that he was quiet, and tearing up. That can't be good. Ratchet thought to himself. "What's wrong Wheeljack?".

"Nothing" Wheeljack snapped, making Ratchet jump slightly. He wasn't expecting Wheeljack to snap like that.

"You sure?" Ratchet pushed, trying to get through to the young inventor.

"I'm fine Ratchet" Wheeljack snapped again. This was getting on Ratchets nerves. He stared at the inventor. Wheeljack looked up to see the medic staring down at him. "What?" he asked.

"Please Wheeljack... What's wrong... And don't tell me nothing, I can see something's bothing you" Ratchet asked, just finishing Wheeljacks repairs.

"Mind you're own" Wheeljack snapped as he stood up.

"Where are you going?" Ratchet asked.

"Well, you've finished. So I'm leaving" he snapped, and walked out leaving a stunned Ratchet in his wake.

Ratchet decided that if he couldn't get through to Wheeljack, he would call upon someone who could. He opened his comm link... "I just had Wheeljack in the med bay. Now something's bothing him, but he won't tell me... Maybe he will open up to you"

"Alright Ratchet, I'll be there as soon as possible"

"Thank you, sir"

Ratchet closed the comm link to Optimus, and just waited for his arrival... Which didn't take too long, not five mintues later Optimus walked into the med bay. "Where is he?" Optimus asked, noticing that Wheeljack was nowhere to be seen.

"I'm not sure, he doesn't have a lab to go back to... So that pretty much rules that out.... When he left here, he looked like he needed time alone" Ratchet stated.

"So he's probably in his room?" Optimus asked.

"I believe so, sir" Ratchet stated.

"Alright, I'll check" Optimus stated, before opening his comm link. "Jazz"

"Yes sir"

"I needed you to check where Wheeljack is"

"Yes sir..." Jazz looked over the screens until he found Wheeljacks spark signiture. "In his room, sir"

"Thank you, Jazz" Optimus and Ratchet headed towards Wheeljacks room.
