Jazz is gone, Prowl thinks with a sigh, leaning up against the bark of his tree, and I don't know when he's coming back. A few lyrics of a song float into his mind, and with them comes a memory.
"Catch me if you can!" Bumblebee shouts, revving his engine and shooting off down the street as soon as the traffic light turns green with his radio blasting. Jazz laughs and he drives off after the little yellow maintenance bot, leaving Prowl with the option to follow him or to be left behind. Prowl decides to follow Jazz and zooms across the intersection, just making it before the light turns red again. He soon catches up with the two other bots who are driving around in an empty parking lot. Bumblebee is doing donuts with Jazz right on his tail.
Prowl never told anyone why he went into that parking lot.
It wasn't in pursuit of Bumblebee.
