Chapter Five: Elections

A month after the debate…(The Night of November 3rd)

Bumblebee was pacing in the common room, trying to bite off his fingers.

"Calm down kid, you'll give your self a spark attack." Ratchet said.

"How can I? The elections are tomorrow and I've been only campaigning for almost two months." Bumblebee argued.

"Don't worry, I'm sure someone will vote for you." Sari said.

Bumblebee just fell into the couch and stared at the ceiling. Sari, concerned for her friend, crawled up and laid next to him.

"One of those moments?" she asked.

"Huh?" he said snapping out of it.

"You know, when you sit still for once. Like at the beach." she said on an elbow.

"Yup." he said still gazing at the blank ceiling.

"Alright, Sari, time for you to go into recharge." Prime said.

"I told you before, its called sleeping." she said.

"Oh, well, time for you to go into sleeping." Prime said again, "did I get it right this time?"

"Never mind." she said and walked to her room.

"What about you Bumblebee, you going to sleeping?" Prime asked the nervous bot.

"NO. And you keep saying it wrong." Bumblebee said irritated.

"Alright, don't fry your circuits." Prime said and left the room. Bumblebee just laid there and slowly dozed off.

The Next Day in the evening…

Bumblebee was snoring on the couch and snored his loudest.

"Should we wake him up?" Sari asked.

"I don't know, you think so." Bulkhead said.

"Just wake him up already. He's been recharging all day." Ratchet shouted. Bumblebee jumped up at the sound of Ratchet's voice.

"What…what's going on?" Bumblebee asked rubbing his optics.

"Its Election Day." Prowl said.

"Oh…OK…WHAT!!! I TOATALLY FORGOT!!! Who's winning?" He asked.

"No one knows yet. They're still voting." Sari explained.

"Oh man. I hope I win, or at least come in second." Bumblebee said nervously.

"What are you talking about? Of course you'll win." Prime said encouraging the mech. Just then Bulkhead turned on the TV.

"Hey look! They're talking about the voting." he said sipping on some oil. Then the announcer spoke.

"Earlier today, elections were held all over the country. Three candidates struggled for the White House, but only one will win. One a Republican, one a Democrat, and the other an Independent. We have the official results for it all."

Bumblebee was literally at the edge of his seat.

"And our 44th President is…"
