Transformers (TFA) Metal to Scales

Meeting

The sun shone threw the Autobot's broken windshield and shined in Bumblebee's eyes. The yellow scout groaned, not wanting to wake up just yet. He felt a shove on his shoulder and squirmed under the touch.

"Ugh...five more klicks..." he murmured. The pressure on his shoulder disappeared and a silky voice reached his ears.

"Unfortunately-for-you-I'm-not-one-for-waiting!"

Bumblebee groaned, "Blurr...I should have known..."

The yellow scout slowly sat up and noticed Blurr was the only other dragon in the room. The small sky blue dragon was sitting, tapping his claws impatiently as Bumblebee came to his senses.

"Where is everybody?" Bumblebee asked.

"They're-all-outside-following-through-with-what-we-discused-last-night-in-the-ship-do-you-need-me-to-recollect-the-events-I-know-it-was-just-yesterday-but-I-can-refresh-your-memory-you-know-that-is-if-you-need-me-to-I-can-help-with-"

"BLURR!" Bumblebee shouted making the small blue dragon shut his mouth, "Slow down...and tell me again, please."

Blurr took a deep breath and started again, forcing his words to slow, "They...are outside, setting up communications to contact Mr. Sumdac."

"And they didn't wake me up?"

"They, meaning Megatron, figured you wouldn't be of much help and would probably only-get-in-the-way-so-they-left-you-here-to-sleep-in-they-thought-the-same-of-me-so-that's-why-I'm-here-too-" Blurr looked down frustrated, "Aww-man-and-I-almost-had-it!"

"Be of no help?" Bumblebee hissed, "Oh come on, I can do plenty!"

"That-is-what-I-told-them-but-Megatron-insisted-you-stay-here-and-rest-instead-and-be-joined-by-me-so-I-could-keep-watch-peculiar-is-it-not?"

Bumblebee frowned, "Hm, peculiar...or he doesn't trust me for something." The yellow scout rose to his talons and headed toward the ship exit.

Blurr widened his eyes, "W-Wait-Bumblebee-they-told-us-to-stay-inside-the-ship-with-very-specific-orders-and-firm-Command-voices-I-think-we-should-"

"I helped them take down this spaceship. If they have a problem with 'the little guy' trying to help build a slagging phone, they got another thing coming." The yellow scout reached the ship exit and pried the door open. Blurr hesitated a few moments before racing to Bumblebee's side. They stepped outside.

Blurr was right, the other dragons were building the communications device, but it was no phone.

The communications device was huge! Well...huge to Bumblebee. It was a cube made out of scrap parts from the ship about the size of Megatron's dragon form himself. A large pole was sticking out of the top that was bent kind of in a zig zag way. Attached to the end of it was something that resembled a satellite dish.

Shockwave was crouched on top of the cube box thing, adjusting the pole with expert experience. Sari was sitting on the cube next to him, handing the con tools when he asked for them.  Waspinator and Blackarachnia were on each side of the cube, keeping it steady while Shockwave worked. Lugnut and Bulkhead came into view, each carrying a huge stack of scrap parts and random tools. Lugnut did not look very pleased to be helping the con who was supposedly Megatron's favorite. Shockwave pointed to the ground for them place it down.

"Thank you. You may put the piles down there next to the EMP generator."

Lugnut looked confused but Bulkhead immediately put the pile in its place next to the correct generator of all the tools scattered on the ground. Lugnut cocked his head to the side.
