"Prime, we couldn't save him."
Kagome looked up at Ironhide's voice, leaning against his leg and seemingly clutching at him when she saw what happened to his fellow Autobot and friend. Such compassion, his little human had.
"Oh Jazz," Optimus accepted Jazz, it made Bee sick that he was in parts.
Optimus turned towards the rest of them, mainly the humans that were in their little circle. "We lost a great comrade, but we gained new ones. Thank you, all of you. You honor us with your bravery."
Bee observed them when they were all taking a moment of silence to honor those that had fallen in this battle, as well as the men Lennox had lost since the Decepticons had made their first move. Feeling an appropriate amount of time had passed, he looked towards Optimus.
"Permission to speak, sir?"
He watched how Kagome whipped her head in his direction, her face painted with shock and awe. Though a smile slowly grew and she leaned in closer towards him. "You can talk now?"
Looking down on her, he could only nod his head. But he returned his attention to Optimus, what he wanted weighed heavily on his leaders decision. "I wish to stay with Kagome."
He could feel that foreign energy of hers instantly, as she pressed closer towards him. The others were also watching, now that he had spoken of his wish. Optimus had turned to regard Kagome, but she hadn't take her eyes off of him
