Spark ( Book 1 )

Con Job E8 P2 S1

Blear's POV 

Bulk: "So there we were, no communications, low on Energon, surrounded by cons. So, what does Wheeljack do? Tell them, Jackie." 

Wheelajck: "Well...what do I do best." 

Bulk: "Heh. He chucks his only grenade smack into the primary heat exchanger." 

Wheeljack: "Yeah, seemed like a good idea at the time." 

Bulk: "The joint went supernova!" 

Me: "Awesome!" 

I loved to listen to the stories about them. It was mostly Bulkhead telling them but Wheelajck was agreeing with them. 

Bulk: "Yeah. I'm still picking shrapnel out of my backside." 

Acree: "I am not surprised. Given the size of your backside." 

Buemlbee chirped making me roll my eyes by their comment. I thought Bulkhead was perfect. 

Bulk: "So there it is Jackie's signature-- one grenade, one shot. Hey, are you alright?" 

He asked Wheeljack who kept looking at the ground and seemed to be somewhere else in the world. 

Wheeljack: "What?" 

Bulk: "You don't seem like yourself." 

Wheeljack: "Well, what do you mean?" 

Bulk: "Well you seem quiet." 

Wheeljack: "Aw, I've been stuck in a can too long. I should go topside before I get stir-crazy." 

Bulk: "I have a patrol in the morning. You can come with." 

Wheeljack: "Ley's go now." 

Bulk: "And break up the party? Come on! The gang is loving you! You got to tell them about the battle of darkmount pass!" 

Wheeljack: "You tell them about it. You're better at it." 

Wheeljack looked down at us and his eyes stopped on me. 

Wheeljack: "What about Blear here shows me the rest of your base?" 

Bulk: "Well, yeah, sure, Jackie. Hey, go ahead." 

Me: "The tour starts now." 

I said as I pushed myself off the sofa and went down the stairs. As I came to him I began to walk and he began to follow. 

Me: "So if you have any questions about anything just ask." 

Bulkhead's POV 

I watched Blear and Wheeljack leave. 

Lily: "Are you okay Bulkhead?" 

Me: "Yeah, just....out of sorts, I guess." 

I said as I turned my body around so I could look at her. 

Eli: "Are you jealous Bulkhead?" 

Me: "That Blear is making a new friend? Come on. Something...Something is just not right with Wheeljack." 

I said as I looked back towards the way they went. No, I wasn't jealous. Ever since the moment I learned that he was coming to Earth, I wanted them to meet and become friends. But something was off about him. I didn't see it before but now I do. 

Acree: "Bulkhead really? He's traveled galaxies. You haven't seen him for centuries. He could just be rocket-lagged or...well bots do change, you know?"
