Chapter 6

Hope you are enjoying the story

"What do we do?" ask Blu

"I don't know" said Arcee

Arcee stares at the shark. It is Slash; why is he charging towards the humans. He only protects love ones.

"Slash…" she whispers

"Arcee…we have to go…" said Optimus "ARCEE!"

"No…you two go" she said "Please…Optimus go"

Bee is starting to get scared. He is holding on to his dad real tight. Prime did the same; he doesn't want to let him go.

"Arcee…"

"Please Optimus go to shore…" she said "I'll be right behind you"

Optimus looks at her for a while.

"Blu…take them to shore…"

Blu goes to them and grabs Bee. He then starts swimming towards the shore.

"Bee…" yells Prime as he starts swimming after him. Bee starts panicking as he is being drag. Prime grabs his hand and helps him up. Blu lets go and starts swimming back to Arcee.

Prime looks towards Arcee. He looks around to find something to help her. The shark is charging with full speed. Arcee gets ready.

"Slash…stop" she yells. The shark didn't stop at all. She swings her hand making a wave. The waves push the shark back.

"I found her my queen…in a place call Atlantis"

"Attack her" said Airachnid

The shark swims towards her again. Arcee gives another wave; pushing him further. Blu stays by her side. Blu swims to attack Slash.

The shark growls as it hits Blu with its tail. Blu goes back a few inches. Slash starts charging and gets closer to Arcee. She throws another wave but Slash jumps through it.

"SLASH!" Arcee yells as he catches her by the arm. Slash brings her under the water. Arcee starts yelling out in pain.

"Arcee!" yells Prime. "Bee…stay here"

Bee nods "What are you going to do?"

"Just stay here"

Optimus runs to the people next to them and jumps on a speedboat. Prime starts driving the speed boat. The guards try to stop him but he kept on going.

Prime goes to the spot where he last saw her. He jumps into the water; swimming down; looking for Arcee. His eyes widen as he sees Arcee struggling to get free. Prime sees the shark biting her arm.

Optimus swims down to help her. He wraps his arms around the shark; and pokes its eye. The shark growls as he lets go of Arcee. The shark starts shaking while Prime is holding on to him tight.

Optimus lets go and kicks the head. He swims to Arcee. She is struggling to swim up. Prime holds her and swims up. Optimus gasps for air as he makes it to the surface. Arcee just blinks a little.

"On the boat…." Optimus says. He helps her on the speedboat he tries to climb up. The shark jumps out of the water.

"Optimus…WATCH OUT!" yells Arcee. Optimus sees it and the Shark lands on top of him. Slash brings Optimus down with him. "NOO…"

Optimus starts punching the shark on its head. The great white is trying to bite Optimus but the prime keeps dodging the bites.

Arcee wants to help but her arm is aching too much. She can't use her powers fully.

"Come on…" she whispers

"Blu…help Optimus" she cries

Blu swims down to see Optimus struggling to get free. The shark caught his shorts. It is still trying to bite him. Blu dashes with full speed and hits Slash on the side. The great white growls as it faint. Blu helps Prime.

Blu helps him swim up to the surface. Optimus gasps for air. Arcee smiles in relief. She goes to the side of the boat and lends out a hand.

"Optimus…"

Optimus holds her hand and Arcee tries her best to pull him up. Prime falls to the boat; catching his breath. Arcee hugs him with the good arm. Optimus smiles as he hugs her back carefully.

He leans back to look at her arm. It is her left arm that has the bite. He gets the towel and wraps it around her arm carefully.

"Ouch…" she whimpers.

"I'm sorry…but this should stop it from bleeding…" said Optimus. She nods in understanding.

"Blu…what happen to Slash?" she ask

"He is…out cold for now" said Blu

"I don't know what to do…he is a friend of ours" she said

"I know…"

Optimus drives the boat back to shore. Bee runs to them with worry. Prime jumps off and hugs Bee.

"I'm fine…" he whispers. Bee sighs in relief.

"Good…" he said

Optimus smiles and he frowns "Help me…Arcee is hurt"

Bee nods and goes to help her.

"We need a doctor…" said Optimus "We need to get her to the emergency room"

"Over here…" said one man. Optimus carries Arcee; bridal style. He rushes after the man.

"Ouch…" she cries in pain. She looks at Prime with fear.

"I know it hurts…but we have to put stitches…" said Optimus "It will heal you"

"But…why?" she asks

"You have a large cut; it is still flowing with blood. Shark bites are really hard to work with" said the doctor "You got lucky the shark didn't take the arm off"

"But…the shark would never do that" she said "He is a nice friend….uumm"

"Sharks attacks are rare…they won't do nothing unless you provoke them" said the doctor "Now…let me get to work"

Arcee looks at Prime. "Can…I…hold your hand?"

Prime nods and holds his hand into hers. She tangles their fingers together. Bee is waiting outside the room. He felt his hand being squeeze as the doctors starts stitching it.

"Ouch…ouch…" she groans in pain.

"Hey…look at me" said Prime "Do you want to eat later?"

"Yes…I do" she smiles

"I something good to cook…" said Optimus

"You do…can't wait to try it" she said.

"and some good drinks"

"Oh…can't wait for food and drink" she smiles. She doesn't feel as much pain now that her mind is off the stitching thing.

"All done…" said the doctor

"Thank you…uum" said Optimus

"Ratchet…" he said with a small smile.

"Thank you Ratchet" said Optimus. Arcee looks at her arm.

"Oh my…" the sight scares her. She did not know that a shark can harm humans this bad. Her eyes start to swell up.

"Hey…it will be okay…" said Optimus "It will get better"

"Okay Arcee you have to wear this for at three weeks" said Ratchet. He wraps her arm and then places on an arm brace. She looks at it strangely.

"It's to support you arm" said Ratchet. Arcee nods in understanding. "Okay. You are good to go"

Arcee stands up and Prime sits where she is sitting. Optimus takes off his shirt to reveal really deep cut on his shoulder blade. A little bit of blood is still flowing.

"Oh my…" she gasps as she sees the deep cut. "Oh no…oh"

"Its fine Arcee…it's just a scratch"

"Okay…Prime here we go"

Ratchet cleans out the cut. He whips it off and starts stitching it. Prime winces a little at the pain but it wasn't much. Arcee sits next to him; placing her hand over Prime's.

A few minutes have passed and Ratchet is finish. Ratchet places a big band-aid on it.

"Change the band-aid every two hours" said Ratchet

"Sure thing…" said Optimus. "Thank you"

Ratchet nods. "No problem"

Optimus walks out along with Arcee. Bee walks up to them.

"You okay?" he ask Arcee

"I'm fine…" she said "I feel much better"

"Good…"

Arcee notices that he didn't ask Optimus. She goes up to Optimus.

"Umm…Bee didn't"

"He doesn't know I got cut…just don't tell him"

"Oh okay"

Prime opens the hotel room door. He lets Bee and Arcee enters. They go up to the living room part; and sit down. Arcee feels weird now that she can't use her left arm.

She looks at Prime as he goes to the kitchen to cook the food. She looks down and thinks about today. He went to save her. He didn't have to but he did. She feels guilty now; she feels like it is her fault that Optimus got that big cut.

Optimus almost drown; he almost drowns all because of her. He risks his for her and he barely knows her. She gets up. She slowly makes her to Optimus.

"Optimus…" she said

"Yes…" he said as he turns around. She hugs him tight with one arm.

"Thank you…" she whispers in his ear. He smiles as he hugs her back.

"Don't mention it" he said

She starts crying.

"Arcee…" he asks her with worry. "You okay…?"
