Bella's Exciting Life(A Transformers Fanfic)

The calm before the storm

        Another week went by since the Battle with the Decepticons that left a lot of Autobots severely injured, including Ultra Magnus. But for a week there was no Decepticon activity what so ever, but then a couple of days ago the Decepticons had resurfaced and were out and about, and there were times when a Decepticon or two would come near the base, which made all the Autobots on edge because they didn't know if they would attack. So every Autobot was keeping an optic out for any kind of activity, while the remaining injured Autobots were being cleared for active duty from Ratchet and Bella, which made Smokescreen really happy that he finally got to do something after two weeks of doing nothing. When everything was quiet with no activity at all, which wasn't really often lately.

        So Ratchet asked Optimus and Ultra Magnus if Bella could help him out around Med Bay more often since she did a good job with all the injured Autobots the past two weeks. Optimus and Ultra Magnus didn't answer right away, they thought about it and talked to each other about it and then got back to Ratchet and they agreed to it but there were a couple of things they told him, such as, Bella still had to do her duties every once and a while and still had to go on patrol once in a while. Ratchet understood the conditions and told them that he would tell Bella the news himself, the next he saw her and also tell her the conditions that they said, so he sent Bulkhead to go tell Bella that he wanted to see her in Med Bay. 

"Hey Bella! Ratchet wants to see you in Med Bay." Bulkhead said while knocking on her door.

"What for?" Bella asked as she opened her door.

"I don't know. He just told me that he wanted to see you in Med Bay right away." Bulkhead answered.

"Okay. Thanks Bulkhead." Bella replied.

"No problem Bella." Bulkhead responded as he walked back to the hanger part of the base.

"Hmm. I wonder why Ratchet needs me so urgently in Med Bay for. Well I will find out shortly." She said as she walked towards Med Bay and saw Ratchet. "Hey Ratchet, Bulkhead said you needed to see me urgently."

"Yes I did." Ratchet replied.

"What's so urgent?" Bella asked as she stopped a couple feet away from him.

"Well I asked Optimus and Ultra Magnus about you helping me out around Med Bay more often since you were a good help with all the Injured Autobots." Ratchet explained.

"And? What did they say?" Bella asked.

"Well they considered it for a while." Ratchet said seeming to take his time.

"But what did they say?" Bella asked starting to get impatient.

"They said that it would be a good idea for you to help me out." Ratchet said finally.

"Really?" Bella asked with excitement.

"Yeah." Ratchet responded.

"That is awesome." Bella said.

"But." Ratchet said.

"Oh. There's a but? What's the But?" Bella asked.

"They also said that you still need to do your duties and go on patrol every once in a while." Ratchet said.

"Alright. I understand that. The days that you are not so busy will be the days that I will do my duties." Bella responded.

"Good." Ratchet said.

        After Bella was done talking to Ratchet she went to find Smokescreen to tell him the news she was just told, and she thought she should start looking for him outside since she has seen him out there many times. So once she exited the base she saw Smokescreen standing still while staring at something, and Bella thought that it was a good idea to look outside first instead of checking there last. As she approached him she thought nothing could get her out of the mood she was in, until she stopped right beside Smokescreen, who didn't even turn to say hi or anything, he just kept staring. She didn't know what he was staring at until she looked in the direction he was staring and saw a figure standing there about 150 yards away. She immediately recognized the figure, since she has learned to recognize it at any given point. It was a Decepticon, but not just any Decepticon, it was Breakdown, and he was watching them both as Bella and Smokescreen were staring at him.
