The war torn land was a maze within its self and the Autobots were traversing through it…looking for something that was dear to them. The Autobots had found the remains of the squad but Bumblebee was missing it was discovered that he had been taken by the enemy and they had to find him. The leader of the team known as Optimus was desperate to find what had been taken from them…Bumblebee. The youngest member of the team had participated in a very necessary but very dangerous mission and had been taken.

The mission was to distract the enemy long enough for the Autobots to take the All-spark and jettison it out of Cybertronian space. It was a risky task but Bumblebee was the leader of the squad that had opted to take on the suicidal mission.

Of course the scout's comrades had voiced their concerns about sending Bumblebee but the yellow scout had wanted to do it and they couldn't stop him. The mission was a success but at a terrible price.

The Decepticons had eliminated the squad sent and Bumblebee had been taken alive. The Autobots had no idea in their CPU's if Bumblebee was online or whether his spark had been extinguished. That was a few breems ago but now they had an indication that their friend was online.

Moments ago they had received a distress signal from there lost comrade in the wastelands of the Tylax sector. The team dispatched consisted of Commanding Medical officer Ratchet, Lieutenant Jazz, and Weapon Specialist Ironhide and of course the Leader of the Autobots Optimus Prime himself. They had just arrived at the area and immediately began scanning the immediate area for any sign of Bumblebee.

"Ratchet Status?" Optimus wanted to find his little scout and soon for fear that he wouldn't survive especially if he was in the evil hands of his bother. The Autobot leader knew what his brother was capable of and his spark was filled with worry.

The CMO was thoroughly scanning the area for any sign of their comrade. After a few breems Ratchet picked up something on his scanner…it was a spark signal but it was very weak almost non-existent. "Sir I have a signal but…it's very weak…"

"Then we must hurry" Worry was present in Prime's voice. Ratchet relayed the co-ordinates and they all traversed the land to the signal of their lost teammate.

It didn't take them long to get there but what they found was exactly what they all feared. Instead of finding their friend they instead found a pool of energon that could only mean that he was injured and badly. The bot in question wasn't in the visible area but they couldn't give up on him just yet.

Ratchet studied the energon. "We need to hurry sir; this amount of energon indicates that he's hurt badly." He came up with his own conclusions about the condition that Bumblebee was in. The multiple pools of energon gave Ratchet an indication about the condition of their friend.

"He has a large wound that's leaking energon at a steady rate and these other small pools suggest that he has multiple wounds that are also deep and have penetrated his armour." They could hear the suspension in Ratchet's voice as he mentioned Bumblebee's possible injuries.

"Where is he?" Ironhide having raised Bumblebee from the day they found him was worrying about his former charge. Even though he was old enough to look after himself he still worried about him.

"I'm scanning…found it the signal's coming from a cave system in the vicinity." The signal was growing weaker…they needed to hurry. They all headed to the cave system nearby.

When they arrived it triggered a memory recall for all members present. This very cave system was the one that they found Bumblebee in when he was but a Mechling. Jazz was the first to voice it. "This is where we found him…I guess it's ironic that we would find here again."

With a worried and commanding tone Optimus spoke. "I want everyone on full scanning mode…we need to find him." The team nodded and they all entered the cave.

It didn't take them long to find the cavern that they had found Bumblebee in and luckily not long after they entered the signal returned. "Sir he's in here"
