Optimus and BumbleBee are now walking along with the 'walkers,' as BulkHead called them. BumbleBee was so nervous. "Bee, walk like how they walk. Got it?" Optimus told. Bee nodded. Bee looked up to see BulkHead and Arcee watching them from the building up high.

Optimus had an axe ready by his side, and Optimus felt a rain drop on his head. His eyes widened, "We gotta walk a little faster. The rain will wear off the smell." Optimus said. They both started walking faster, hoping they would get out of there.

In seconds, the rain hardened, which was wearing off the smell on Prime and Bee.

They walked faster and faster, trying to get out of there. They stopped as they heard the groans. And they felt of presence on them. They turned around just to find out the hord knew that they weren't one of them. Bee screamed in horror. Prime grabbed Bee and carried him, and ran off. Bee clinged on to Prime's neck, terrified.

Optimus tried comforting him as he was running with Bee in his arms. They were on

the highway, then Optimus jumped off the highway onto the flowing water, but the current wasn't strong enough to pull Bee and Optimus with it. So he started running quickly away from the city, but they would have to return to retrieve BulkHead and Arcee.

"They made it out!!" BulkHead said. Arcee sighed in relief, but now, she was concern how will they would get her and BulkHead.

"Yeah, but how will they get us?" Arcee asked with concern. He shrugged.

"We should get downstairs if case Bee and Prime come back for us." BulkHead suggested. She was worried for them still, but part of her wanted them to be far from here. She didn't want them to get bit by them.

"Please, Bee and Optimus, be careful." Arcee whispered to herself.

Meanwhile..

"Now we gotta go back to get BulkHead and Arcee." Optimus said. "Okay, but how are we gonna do that?" The young scout asked with worry. BumbleBee could tell that his leader was thinking carefully. Then he looked over to see a delivery truck. (Basically, like a truck from Amazon Prime. But different types of websites for Cybertronians.)

"Ok, Bee, the store that Arcee and BulkHead are trapped in has a truck loading stop thing?" He said but wasn't sure the name of it. Then he continued saying his instructions for his young scout. "You will pick up our comrades while I district the hord." Optimus finished. "Ok, but how, and what are you gonna drive?" Bee asked. So many questions, ain't Bee?

"I will drive a speed bike." Answered Prime. (They can transform and ride as I said from the first chapter.) "Where the heck do you see a bike, Optimus?" BumbleBee asked. He had so many questions about the things he has to do. "You will see." Prime responded.

Bee was so confused. But he went to the truck and started it. He looked around and saw Prime jump off, and his bag transformed to a speed bike. "Roll out, Bee!" Optimus yelled out as he started driving towards the city where their two friends were. Bee hits the paddle and drives fastly behind Prime.

CRACK!

BulkHead screamed in horror when one of the walkers got a rock and smashed it on the glass. Arcee right away tried comforting him. BulkHead was losing his hopes, Arcee still had hope. But then they heard a vehicle coming up near them.They looked through the window and saw Prime driving the motorcycle. He was going in circles. Donuts!! Of course, it got the walkers' attention. And when they came near, he sped off a bit and made sure they followed him, but some still stayed. Then they saw a truck coming. It was BumbleBee!! Arcee saw a truck loading thing, and she opened the gate. And right at that, the walkers got in. BulkHead was screaming the same way he did when the scraplets invaded their base.

BumbleBee opened the back of the truck, and BulkHead and Arcee hopped inside, and one of the walkers almost gripped on them. BumbleBee sped off almost immediately.

Optimus then came in, driving behind them.

Minutes later, after driving, they ran out of gas. And there is no gas station. They were in a forest. "Fuck!" Optimus yelled out. "Ok, you do curse a lot." BulkHead said, surprised. They all got out of the vehicle. For Optimus, he transformed his motercycle into that small bag that it once was. "What.. How?" Arcee asked. "It was pretty hard, because I had to experiment, there was so much errors and malfunctioning. Explosions. A lot." Prime answered.

"So where do we go now?" BumbleBee asked. "Well, we may have to go on foot." Optimus answered. BulkHead, Bee, and Arcee were nervous. "Ummm, but how about the walkers?" BulkHead asked. Optimus had an unsure look on his face. "I honestly don't know, BulkHead. But it's getting dark, and we need to find somewhere safe to rest for the night." Optimus responded honestly. So they had no choice, they couldn't go back to the city, so they went inside the forest. They walked around for a few hours.

It was 6:32. They were nowhere close to anywhere safe for the night. Then they ran into a watch tower, and they weren't sure it was secure enough, BulkHead checked the structure, and it was secured. They climbed up the ladder to the high deck.

BumbleBee was about to turn on the lights, but Optimus stopped him quickly, "We can't turn on anything too big, BumbleBee." Bee then asked. "How are we supposed to see in the dark then?"

"We need lanterns. They're smaller, and it's pretty good light. It won't attract to hord." He turned it on. He made sure it was dim.

They ate their energon. Now their in a world where the dead is alive. They got a blanket and laid it across the wooden planks. So it would be a little comfortable and not sleeping on the hard wood. Now, either on their sides, back, or front. All had a blanket on them and pillows underneath their heads. Optimus was one of the last ones on the edge of the blanket underneath them, and BulkHead was on the other side. For BumbleBee and Arcee, they were in the middle, BumbleBee was right next to BulkHead, and Arcee was next to Optimus.

BulkHead was asleep on his back, with both of his hands on his belly. BumbleBee was on his left side, facing the wreaker and friend BulkHead. His left arm underneath the pillow, and his right arm was on top of the pillow.

Arcee was on her rightish side and almost front facing her leader and friend Optimus. Her arms were crossed, and she used them more as a pillow instead. But she wasn't asleep. She was looking at Optimus. Optimus was lying on his front side, both of his arms underneath his pillow, and he was kinda clinging to it as he was hugging someone.

Arcee kept watching him sleep until she got tired herself, she placed her hand on his nape. But he moved, he released from his pillow and he hugged Arcee instead. He was nearly on top of her and kind of on his side. Arcee was surprised, just one touch and it motivated him to hug her.

But she didn't mind it at all, she let him hug her, but she hugged him back tightly and fell asleep.

BulkHead was the first to wake up. It was around 6:00. He looked to his left to see his comrades. Bee was sleeping peacefully. And then he stopped when he saw Prime and Arcee. They were cuddling each other.

BulkHead chuckled quietly. He knew there was something about those two. He asked his childhood friend so many times if he had a crush on her or he was secretly dating her. But when Optimus's cousin came in and told him that Optimus did i fect, had a crush on Arcee! BulkHead knew about this for years. But always, he always asked his leader if he did. But either he will try to judge it or say, 'Why would you be asking that?'

It's funny to him and adorable. He continued to look at the 'cute couple,' and then he took a picture of them with his phone. But so, BulkHead was hungry, but he didn't want to waste their energon supply. So he went down the ladder in search of some other food.

It's now 8:33. BulkHead came back with supplies he found. He went up the ladder just to see BumbleBee, Arcee, and Optimus still are asleep! So, like the good friend he was. He woke em up by saying, "Wakiw, wakie sleeping beauties!" Almost immediately, his friends Optimus, Arcee, and BumbleBee opened their eyes and moved their heads to face their friend.

He put his hands on his hips and leaned to the side as he gave them a big smile.

"BULKHEAD!" Arcee, Optimus, and BumbleBee all yelled out in unison.

After that, everyone ate their breakfast that BulkHead found. Then they packed their stuff and hit the road, or the forest.They walked further until they reached a strong stone building.. It was a bunker,

So they decided that they would stay there for a while. They opened the doors and went inside. And inside, Arcee found more food inside the storage. BulkHead found guns and knives. Should be useful for under these extremes. Bee found beds, and he tried to fix them for when they got to bed, Optimus then joined in and helped Bee."So, Optimus, what now?" BulkHead asked to his commander. "I am not really sure, honestly." Optimus said with a shrug. "You guys have any ideas?" Prime asked.

Bee was like, "Ummmm."

"I say we should get to know the town and forests a little better so we will have escape routes and short cuts." BulkHead suggested. Everyone was kinda at worry about this, but it was not a bad idea.

So they got food and water (Cybertron and Earth, basically the same as ours.), trying to avoid many walkers as possible. We went down on the road nothing much, and we stopped after a while. The Autobots took a little break before continuing. They were on a highway, where many cars were destroyed and one RV. Strange..

Optimus got up and looked around for any resources or anything that might help us. He went in the RV, while for Arcee, BulkHead, and BumbleBee went looking for stuff as well. Bee found an axe survival kit, it seems like. BulkHead found more food, and Arcee found medical supplies. Well, that's super useful! Optimus found a couple of pistols and more bullets.

Arcee's POV.

I walked around more, and I saw Optimus got on the roof of the RV. I thought he looked cute up there, but I knew I had to focus on what I was doing. I looked over where the others were, and Bee was trying to get the bullets out from a walker's hand! And BulkHead, he was looking around. He had his gun up, as he was pointing at something. I guess he was patrolling.

Bee came up to me with a walkie-talkie! I grabbed it from him, and he said what channel we would be on. I nodded, and he left to give the others some. After a little while, Optimus responded into the walkie-talkie, "Guys! We got the hord coming!"

I looked over seeing Optimus doing a military crouch on the RV. Bee went inside the RV, finding a place to hide. I hid under the car, I don't know where BulkHead left to. And that was when I saw the dangling steps from the Walkers. How in the hell would we survive something like this? I stayed as quiet as I could.

BulkHead's POV.

I didn't have the chance to hide underneath a car, so I ran. I ran, and I looked back. They were getting closer, I was starting to freak out, I tripped on something and got stabbed by something medal. I groaned in pain. My blood was dripping. They would see where I went!

So I ran until 2 Walkers were in front of me. I was ready to die until someone killed them both, stabbing through both of their heads. It was a femme! "Get on the ground!" She yelled out to me. I did as I was told, she puts the FUCKING WALKER ON TOP OF ME!! She did the same to herself, and finally the Walkers walked passed us.

I was shocked. It worked. Well, now I know a trick to hide from the Walkers, so that's cool!

BumbleBee's POV:

Meanwhile.

I hid in the closet in the RV. I was trying as quietly to put the gun together. Then I heard one of the Walkers came in. I wanted to scream, but I couldn't blow my cover if I wanted to survive! So I tried quietly, the Walker was getting out, that is untile, I accidentally dropped a part and it hits the ground. The Walker heard it clear as day! Now, it was trying to break the down. I tried my best to hold my scream!

It was determined to take a bite out of me! Then the ceiling roof hatch opened up.I looked up, and I saw Optimus handling me a big, sharp knife. I got it and stabbed the Walker in its eye. I kicked the door and started stabbing it worse, giving it no mercy! I don't know why, but that felt so good to murder something that was dead! I felt triumph through my veins. I looked at Optimus and thanked him quietly. He just smiled.

We waited for a long while until finally Optimus said it was all over. We got out of our hiding places and went outside the RV.

BulkHead's POV.

I got up and realized that the femme was gone, I guess she left to somewhere. Maybe she had her own group or something? But I didn't mind, I was just thankful that she saved my life.

I walked to where the others were, and I didn't tell them that a femme saved me.

"So what do we do, Optimus?" Arcee asked our leader. He looked like he was thinking, as he didn't respond to her for a couple of minutes. "I think that's enough "Walkers" for today. I just want to think this through. Thus, it is much harder than I expected to be." Optimus finally answered.

I mean, I don't blame him. These two days were crazy for all of us. I guess he is still trying to recover from this reality.So we walked back to our temporary base. It took us an hour just to get back!

And the whole time, I wondered who that femme. And I didn't tell them about my wound.

Optimus's POV.

We finally got back to our temporary base. I looked through everything we found. I noticed BulkHead was acting strangely. Then I saw his wound.. I started to panic almost immediately. "BulkHead?" I asked."Yes?" BulkHead asked me in response. "A-Are you okay? You're wounded.. " I asked and told him. BulkHead's eyes widened.

"Wait a sec - " BulkHead said and paused. He looked all over himself and saw the wound that he got from earlier today. "Oh, that wound, I tripped, and something medal stabbed on my arm." He said. "Let me check." Arcee said. She checked his wound, and it was from a spiky medal thing."BulkHead, there's bacteria from that, I got to fix you right up now!" Arcee said.

Minutes later, BulkHead was starting to act normal, not weird. At least he is ok.

It was 10:00 PM. Bee was already in bed, but BulkHead and Arcee are getting ready for bed. I was on my bed, I was thinking of what to do tomorrow. I felt so stressed about everything. I felt some touch my shoulder, I turned to face who it was. It was Arcee.She walked up in front of me. We started staring at other eyes for a moment. I was shocked when she pulled me into a tight hug! I was shocked but then calmed down. I hugged her back tightly and closed my eyes ever so tightly. "Is this cheering you up a bit?" Arcee asked me softly. "Yeah, thank you, Arcee. These crazy two days are already enough for me to get stressed." I said and thanked her.

"Yeah, it was pretty crazy, especially today." Arcee responded to what I said. I put my hand on to her upper back, and she smiled. Arcee and I pulled away a bit to look at each other. I felt that we were leaning in closer. Then we both heard a voice that interrupted us. "Ooo, what's going on here?" BulkHead asked. Me and Arcee just looked at BulkHead, surprised. "Uhhh. Что?" I said. "No, BulkHead, I was just comforting him." Arcee said. "Yeah, yeah, save the crap. I will keep your little secret!" BulkHead said.

"Нет, нет! We were not doing anything more, dummy!" Arcee yelled at the wreaker. I laughed to myself, but ok. "I'm just joking. Well, I'ma head to bed. Good night, Cee. Good night, Prime." BulkHead got underneath the blanket and went to sleep.

"Well, good night, Optimus." Arcee said to me. "Спокойной ночи, Арси." I responded to her back. She smiled at me and went underneath her blanket and brought it up to her shoulders. I did the same, my eyes closed shut, falling asleep.

The language here is a little Russian in the end. Things they said: Что/ What. Нет, не/No, no! Спокойной ночи, Арси/Goodnight, Arcee. Ok, see you in the next chapter!!
