Legend (OCXCybertronian)

War Causes Death and Destruction

   IronHides p.o.v

     Not knowing what Optimus had planned for this daily patrol, I decided to make it worth my while. I stepped on the gas peddle zooming past Optimus to get to the front, I shot at a rock on the side, "IronHide you know patrol is for scouting not to make a scene or leave disturbance," Optimus spoke. "It's boring, I feel as though I have a short attention span like the teens at base." Optimus let out a chuckle, something that was rare.

     "Indeed old friend, but I am very happy to have them in our presence...most of the time," it was my turn to chuckle. "Bumblebee has been getting into a bunch of mischief," Prime groaned. "Hot Rod is always worrying about him. Never have I seen two brothers act like those two. But, don't even get me started on Sideswipe and Sunstreaker." I grumbled.

     "Those two, I swear you could go offline for how much Sideswipe talks. Sunstreaker is about as annoying as his brother but, knows his way around that problem. Sideswipe doesn't get much, he likes to be unfocused of the things going on around him. Sunstreaker is a bit more mature but not by much." I sighed. "If only there was a way to give them all a childhood they needed, we got great childhoods. Running around cybertron, annoying other mechs and femmes." Optimus assigned his own memory. "There's is gone now, its all dedicated to the war," Optimus spoke. We were headed back to base now.

     When we rolled in Bumblebee was fighting with Hot Rod. Legend, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Ratchet, Bulkhead, and WheelJack were all watching it. Elita-1 and Chromia had patrol duty also, but they went on the other side. We transformed, "what is going on?" Optimus demanded. They didn't stop arguing. This time Hot Rod pushed, Bumblebee stayed on his peds. Legend was holding back Sideswipe Sunstreaker trying to stay. "Boys," Optimus glared. They didn't pay attention again. But, I wish they did. Hot Rod pushed Bumblebee against the wall. That's when Sideswipe jumped in along with WheelJack and Sunstreaker.  Bumblebee and Hot Rod fought each other, taking hits, sweeping the peds and everything else. Until, Sideswipe got in the middle of the two, whilst WheelJack held back Hot Rod and Suntreaker held back Bee.

     "What is the meaning of this," Optimus now was getting enraged. " Hot Rod showed no signs of engaging Bumblebee any longer so he was let go. Bumblebee was also released.

   Bumblebee's p.o.v

     "Just fighting over a little thing, such as not going on the battle field. Bumblebee announced that he isn't a child and is capable of doing a good deal of damage on any enemy. Hot Rod said it went against his protection." Sunstreaker stepped up. I crossed my arms, the whole fight laid out like that sounded only like Hot Rod being an overprotective glitch. I hate older brothers.

     "It needs to stop, there are other more important things to be worrying about," with that sire left to the back with Ratchet. IronHide left looking at us. "Listen younglings, Optimus- doesn't have time to deal with us, I get it," I buzzed cutting him off. Everybot was looking at me. "That's not what I was going to say Bumblebee," IronHide glared. "It's what the truth is Hide, we were all born into war! I haven't seen my own big brother in like eleven years! Legend hasn't seen you in eleven years! Sideswipe hasn't seen Suntreaker in eleven years! It's all because a bot was too jealous of his own brother! I DIDN'T ASK FOR MY VOICE TO BE TAKEN AWAY BECAUSE OF IT EITHER!" My wings had been flat on my back with rage. My attenaes stuck up. Legend was at my side. She was holding onto my arm.

     "Bumblebee?" My carrier was at the entrance with Chromia. I looked at her, she walked up to me. "I'm sorry, I-we know you miss you're voice. We can get it back one day. But, others need you to be strong. I know it's not gonna be easy, the torture you went through. We didn't want you to be put into a war either, it just happened. But, you are strong enough to make it all through it. I believe in you. We believe in you," I looked at her, she didn't want me to be like this. I nodded slowly. She walked away to find sire.

   Legend's p.o.v

     "Sire, I think we can handle it from here." He nodded and walked away along with carrier. Me, Bee, Hot Rod, Sides, Sunny, Drift, and Arcee stayed in the main room. "I think it's safe to say that we are all alright correct," Drift mumbled. "Agreed," Hot Rod brought Bumblebee into a hug. Bumblebee hid his helm in it. Then, something that we had gone through in life broke up the moment. "DECEPTICONS! THEY FOUND BASE!" Ratchet shouted running through the halls. "Scrap," Arcee muttered.

     Then, Decepticons flooded in through our entrance. Hot Rod taking down three. "Optimus!" IronHide shouted. Megatron had already breached in. Bumblebee was running to help Optimus. Megatron wasn't paying attention, Bumblebee jumped on him and Optimus had time to get up. "Help!" I turned around and saw Suntreaker. He was pinned to the ground with Starscream on top of him trying to get a good hit in. I shots an arrow and hit it in his side. When I looked back over to the Megatron battle ready to jump in...I saw Drift already and it there. I came running also. Optimus was on the ground his sword cracked. Bumblebee was still fighting alongside Drift. Then, times seem to have frozen. Bumblebee wasn't up just yet from his fallen position, Megatron went in for the kill, but Drift got in the way. The sword going through his form, it lunging. Bumblebee's form getting covered in energon that dropped from the end of the sword. I didn't know a yell of pain coming from not just him but also from me.

     "DRIFT," Carrier also called out to him. Bumblebee was the first to take action. Everyone was watching, even Decepticons but they held satisfied faces. Shockwave catching the base on fire. Bumblebee shoved the blade from Drift's form, Optimus catching Drift. Megatron called for retreat. "We must get out of here," Ratchet shouted founding the corner with a brunt shoulder plate. Most of us had injuries but I didn't. I had one in my spark.

     "Ratchet! Will he make it?!" Sire held Drift. "I-Don't....IronHide, just bring him, we have no time." I didn't like the answer, but we had to take the chance to get out. The ridge opened for probably the very last time. We all went through. Optimus being the last. We ended up at the cave we came from. We all had instantly went on Ratchet's case of Drift's health. He was barely hanging on. "With all that I have I don't think it will work," I shook my head, tears of coolant starting to form. We hung our helms. I got an idea though. I opened my subspace and brought out my med kit. "I packed as much as possible," I smiled up at Ratchet. His optics were bright, "thank Primus." He muttered.

     We worked, and worked everyone taking their uneasy seats. Bumblebee wouldn't stop glancing at me. I just couldn't explain how everyone looked, my parents were like me just completely scared. Hot Rod had Bumblebee by his side, Bee still covered in energon.

     The wreckers had gone off to find wood for the night. The twins talking together silently through bonds. Optimus and Elita-1 with my parents. Arcee was sitting with her brothers. We didn't know if he was gonna make it even if we had all of this medical supplies. It only counted on if he had enough strength....
