A/N: Welcome back to another chapter of The Adventures and Misadventures of Soundwave!
Believe it or not, the last time I wrote a chapter, it was 2013, but now, it's 2014!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Sorry it's late…
Also, we must get into the habit of writing the New Year… no biggie.
Disclaimer: You already know, people. I own NOTHING, unfortunately.
New Mech in town
Bumblebee was walking down the street towards Soundwave's house. He had just heard about a new manager working at his and Soundwave's favorite music store, The Beat. As he was making his way to his friend's house, he spotted a few of his other friends. Some of which were Orion, Megatronus, and Ironhide. Ironhide was a longtime friend of Megatronus'. He met Ironhide a while back in middle school. They didn't get along very well, at first. But once they settled their differences, with the help of Orion, they became friends. Apparently, his friends spotted him, too. Waving them over, Bumblebee greeted them.
"Hey `Hide, Orion and Megatronus. I was just about to go over Soundwave's to ask if he wanted to go to The Beat with me."
"Why are you going in the first place?" Ironhide asked, curiously.
"I have to turn in this CD I borrowed two weeks ago." Bumblebee replied.
"Oh. Anyway, did you hear about the new mech who just started working at The Beat?"
"Yeah. I wonder who it could be."
"Let's just hurry up and get to Soundwave's house." Megatronus' said impatiently.
"Patience is a virtue, Megatronus." Reminded Optimus.
Seeing no sense in arguing, Megatronus kept walking with Bumblebee and Ironhide. I few kliks later, they finally arrived at Soundwave's house. The house was medium sized. It had a pool with a patio in the backyard. It also had a stone path way from the curb leading up to the door. Plus, there was a Cybertronian equivalent to flowers and bushes on both sides of the pathway. The house was an elegant cream color with windows.
"Is he rich?!"Ironhide asked, looking at the very nice house.
"Oh, Pit no!" Came the unmistakable voice of Soundwave.
They all glanced over to Soundwave, who was reading a book in one of his patio chairs.
"Hey Sounders!"
"Hey Bee. Hey Orion and Megatronus."
Soundwave then turned to Ironhide. His expression turned from nice to hatred.
"'Wave." Ironhide said with hatred.
"'Hide." Soundwave countered.
"Uh, Guys? Let's not fight this time, ok?" suggested the yellow bot.
Ironhide and Soundwave grumbled in agreement.
"Anyway, Soundwave, I just came to tell you that we are going to The Beat and wondered if you wanted to come with us." Bumblebee said.
Soundwave though about it long and hard. He finally replied, "Sure. Why not?"
"Finally, we can go!" Megatronus shouted to no one in particular.
They were now on their way to The Beat.
Eventually, they got to The Beat. Everyone they knew was there. Arcee, Starscream, Breakdown, Knockout, Bulkhead, Wheeljack, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Smokescreen, and Shockwave.
"Sweet, all our friends are here!" Orion said.
Bumblebee soon found the check in and check out register. He saw what must have been the new manager. He walked up to the mech and read the name tag. His name was Blaster.
"Hey there, um, Blaster. I borrowed this CD two weeks ago and I'm here to return it."
Blaster looked up and said, "Yeah, just put it on one of the CD racks right over there."
"Thanks."
"No prob."
As soon as Bumblebee put the CD back, he introduced himself.
"Hey, I'm Bumblebee, by the way."
"Blaster. Well, as the name tag indicates.
"So, where are you from, Blaster?"
"I'm from-
"Hey, Bee? Have you seen the C-Pods?" Soundwave asked.
"How dare you, we were having a- Whoa…" Blaster caught sight of Soundwave.
He was the most beautiful mech Blaster had ever seen! Forgetting the interruption, Blaster introduced himself.
"Whoa… um… uh… H-Hello, my blaster is Name. Uh… NO! M-M-My name IS B-B-B-B-B-B-B-
"Are you ok?" a freaked out Soundwave asked.
"-B-B-B-
"Bee, let's go over here."
"Way ahead of ya." Said a slightly freaked out Bee.
The two best friends hurried away from the stuttering manager.
"Blaster! My name is Blaster!"
But it was too late, Soundwave and Bumblebee were out of ear-range.
"Yo Blaster, I see you stutterin' ova dat mech." Jazz, the owner of The Beat, appeared.
"No I wasn't. I-I just forgot what I was going to say…"
"Yeah, forgot what you was going to say because you was starin' at dat mech!" Jazz teased.
"Well, I… uh… fine. You caught me." Blaster said. He grew tired of arguing over him staring at a mech he was clearly staring at.
"So, what are you thinking?" Jazz asked.
"I would like to make some sweet music with him." Blaster said, eyeing Soundwave.
Over with Bumblebee and Soundwave
"Dude, what happened back there?" Bumblebee asked.
"How am I supposed to know?! I just walked over to you to ask where the C-Pods where, and that random mech started acting weird." Soundwave explained.
Bumblebee thought it over and then he came up with the only reasonable solution. "Sounders, the manager likes you!" Bumblebee said loud enough for only Soundwave to hear.
"What? No! Nobody would ever like me!" protested Soundwave.
"You don't know that…" Bumblebee muttered.
"What was that?" replied Soundwave. He honestly didn't hear that. Oh, how lucky is `Bee?
"Uhh… um… Hey look its Orion and Arcee!"
Soundwave looked over to the two. It looked like Orion was trying to flirt with Arcee. The key word being: trying.
"So, why don't you come over my house and we can get to know each other better. While we're at it, we could stop for some high grade, too."
"I have a boyfriend, you know. You remember Wheeljack, don't you?"
"Oh Primus, Wheeljack?! Frag Fraggery to the Fragging Pit!" Orion panicked.
"Yeah, be glad I didn't blow you up for trying to steal my girlfriend!" Came Wheeljack's voice.
Orion turned around to meet the furious faceplates of Wheeljack. "Orion, if I see you trying to get with my girl, only Primus will be able to save you!
"Sure thing, W-Wheeljack!" Orion ran to the far end of the store.
"By the way, Bumblebee, who was that mech you were talking to anyway?"
"His name was, I think, Blaster."
"Now I know I have to avoid him at all costs. Even if it means not being able to go to my favorite music store." Soundwave declared.
"What? Dude, don't! Just wear a disguise. Like a… mustache!"
"Pit no! I'll just paint myself another color, and then when we leave the store, I wash the paint off."
"That could work."
A/N: Ok just so it won't be confusing:
Arcee, Wheeljack, Orion, Megatronus, Bumblebee, Soundwave, Shockwave, Starscream, Smokescreen, Bulkhead, Breakdown, and Knockout are from Prime.
Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Blaster, and Jazz are from G1.
Ironhide is from Bayverse.
Hope that helped
BTW, I made up the C-Pod thing. I was supposed to be like an I-Pod. XD
It stands for Cybertronian-Pod.
Get it? Got it? Good!
Peace!
