Ensconce Transformers Prime AU (Book 2) (Wattys 2017)

Chapter Nineteen

A week later, Bumblebee was at their new headquarters. He had set everything up and they were ready for their task. He just had to wait for the others to come. Jazz brought Strongarm over a few minutes later.

"So... are we the first ones here?" He asked as he scanned the room. Bumblebee looked up from his task and smiled slightly.

"No actually. Fixit was here before you two. He's in his office setting things up." He said as he looked towards the said room. Fixit came wheeling out and smiled brightly.

"Hello!" He greeted happily as he stopped by them. He still had a few bandages, but seemed to be doing better. Strongarm wondered how he could be so happy after what happened to him.

"Hey Fixit how are things?" Jazz asked as he smiled slightly and shook his hand carefully.

"Better now that I have a purpose." He said seriously and looked down a little. Bumblebee furrowed his brow then walked over and gently gripped his shoulder.

"Come on, how about we show these Rookies around?" He asked as he smiled slightly.

"Who are you calling a Rookie?" Jazz teased as Strongarm frowned. Fixit laughed happily and wheeled off.

"Try to keep up Rookies!" He yelled and disappeared. Jazz chuckled and followed after him. Strongarm glanced at Bumblebee before going with them.

A few minutes later they found out where everything was and discovered they each had an office. They were talking about what they would do first. Fixit had already made a list of the criminals and had files on each one.

"This place isn't half bad." Someone said as they walked in. They all turned to see Knockout looking around the building. Strongarm blushed deeply and looked away as she fixed her hair.

"Knocks!" Jazz yelled and hugged him tightly. Bumblebee laughed as he walked over to them.

"Ah! Don't call me that!" He yelled and pushed him away. He shivered in disgust and fixed his outfit. "Don't hug me either." He muttered and glared.

"Come on I'll show you the medical area." Bumblebee said and they walked off. Strongarm watched quietly and blushed more when Knockout waved at her.

"Calm down Rookie." Jazz teased as he winked at her. She looked at him and glared darkly.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She said seriously and pouted as Fixit snickered.

"Knockout is takin." The officer muttered and walked to the computer as he watched the other man type.

"What? By who?" She asked then blushed and looked away. "Not that I care." She muttered. Jazz and Fixit exchanged looks then glanced at her.

"I heard she was really sweet." Fixit said as he smiled slightly.

"You've actually met her before." Jazz said seriously and looked out the window. Strongarm blinked in surprise and stared at him in disbelief.

"I have?" She asked as they heard the door open.

"Yep. In fact she's right behind you now." Jazz said and grinned mischievously. Strongarm furrowed her brow and looked behind her. Piper and Grimlock were walking down the hall as they spoke.

"Oh... her." Strongarm muttered as her expression became bored and disappointed.

"Hey Jazz!" Piper grinned happily and hugged him tightly. Grimlock grinned and patted him on the back.

"Nice to finally meet you're boyfriend." He said and Piper blushed deeply as she let go.

"Uh... no Grim... he's not my boyfriend." She muttered and rubbed the back of her head nervously. She hadn't had the heart to tell him yet. Grimlock looked at her with confusion.
