Awaken Within
Chapter eleven: Scared
Bumblebee opened his optics. He looked around and yawed a bit. 'Thank god, Ratchet has letten me recharge in my room.' Bumblebee thought. As he wanted to movie, he felt something in his arms.
Bumblebee smiled as he saw a teddy bear laying in his arms. 'Sari…' he thought as he recognized the teddy. It was a big white one, well it wasn't big for Bumblebee , but it's white.
Bumblebee put the teddy above his head and stood up. He felt hungry. Really hungry. Bumblebee sighed as he knew he had to face his teammates again. He wasn't really in the mood to see them. Especially Optimus.
Bumblebee sighed and looked around in his room. 'If I only had my stock of energon…' thought Bumblebee.
Bumblebee had a stock of energon, but it was discovered by Ratchet a few months ago. Bumblebee sighed and kept sitting on the berth.

Optimus was worried like hell. He hadn't seen his youngest team mate for a half day. Ratchet just said he was recharging, but Optimus knew that Bumblebee wasn't recharging that long.
Optimus sighed and wanted to go and check the kid out, but he knew that he was being watched by Ratchet.
"Come on, Prime." Said the doc bot. He knew Optimus needed some affection. "Let's go on a patrol."
Optimus sighed and nodded as he and the doc bot went outside.

Bulkhead looked on the clock as 12 pm. A hours where Bumblebee usually comes and drink a oil if there wasn't a attack of Decepticons. Bulkhead sighed when a breem has past. Still no Bumblebee.
Bulkhead sighed again and stood up from his painting. He walked to Bumblebee's room. Bulkhead knocked on Bumblebee's door. "Buddy ? It's me Bulkhead." Said Bulkhead on a friendly, but worried tone.
The door opened and Bumblebee looked at Bulkhead. "Can I come in ?" asked Bulkhead.
Bumlebee nodded and let Bulkhead come in. Bumblebee looked at the green mech as he came in. "So…"said Bulkhead. "How are you ?"
Bumblebee held his shoulders up and walked to his berth to sit on it. Bulkhead sighed. He wasn't good at these conversations. "When where you awake ?"
"Good morning everyone, Peter here with the news of 7 am !" said a person who did the news on 7 am on the radio.
"7 am ha ?" said Bulkhead. "Why didn't come to the main room for a oil or a energon cube ? I bet you are hungry like hell."
Bumblebee looked away and sighed. "Leave me alone, leave me alone, I don't want to see any people…"sang a women through the radio.
Bulkhead sighed. "I understand that you don't want to see or talk to us, but that doesn't mean you aren't allowed to drink nothing." Said Bulkhead. "You know what, I'll get you some."
Bumblebee watched the green mech go out of his room to get some oil. Bumblebee sighed and looked when Bulkhead came back. "Here you go." Bulkhead said as he gave the oil to Bumblebee.
Bumblebee smiled and took some slips. Bulkhead looked and did the same. "'Bee." Said Bulkhead. "I know you're angry at us and that you don't trust us anymore after what we have done. And I know that you won't trust us that easy anymore, but please give us a chance to win that trust back. Somehow. Prime is worried like hell about you, Ratchet gives us 'it will be alright' threat, but he's worried too, Sari's worried, hell she even didn't want to leave you yesterday night."
Bumblebee smiled and looked at the teddy. Bulkhead smiled. "Yeah, she was begging Prime to let her put that teddy bear next to you."
Bumblebee smiled and hugged Bulkhead without a warning. "I'm not mad at you…I never could be…" said a child from Bumblebee's radio. "You're my best friend."
Bulkhead smiled and hugged back. "And you're mine, little buddy." Said Bulkhead.

After a while, Optimus and Ratchet came back from their patrol. "I just want him to back normal." Sighed Optimus. "Every time he looks at me or I look at him, I feel like he's blaming me for kicking him into jail."
Ratchet sighed. The hole patrol time, Ratchet had tried to tell the red and blue bot that it wasn't his fault. "I know." Said Ratchet. "Just give him time."
Optimus sighed. "I'm going to check on him."
Ratchet watched Prime leave the room as he sighed and went sitting down on the cough.
---
When Prime arrived, he heard Bulkhead talking and laughing with Bumblebee. Optimus sighed. 'Looks like he made it up with Bulkhead.' Thought Prime. 'One down, three to go.'
Optimus walked back to the main room.

Meanwhile, at the Decepticon Base,
Goldbee was laying on a berth. He has been there since yesterday. "Mmm looks like you're spark is fainting, everytime you try to fly or shoot." Said Shockwave.
Goldbee sighed. "What can we do about it ?" asked Goldbee.
"Not much." Said Shockwave, looking cold at Goldbee.
Goldbee looked at him. "Come on, there is something you can help me with !" said Goldbee.
Shockwave turned to Goldbee. "I can, but only if you promise me one thing."
"Never ever think you can push me of my place as computer genius !"
Goldbee looked at Shockwave before laughing. "Oh come on ,you don't think I'm in to that !"
Shockwave narrowed his optic. "I mean it !"
"Okay,okay." Laughed Goldbee. "I promise."
"Good." Said Shockwave as he turned back to the computer. "We can help you, by fusing you and Bumblebee back together."
"What ?!" said Goldbee. "Can't I be online without that guy in me ?"
"No, you can't." said Shockwave ad he typed. "You're a 'clone' of Bumblebee. While we split you two, something had happened and now you're a 'clone' mech with half spark. But was most fascinating is, that your connected with bumblebee, even when you're so far away from each other."
"You mean, I can contact that bug even when he doesn't want me to contact him ?" asked Goldbee. "Cool !"
Shockwave sighed and shook his head as Goldbee went off.
