Chapter 1: The attack

The sun was shining brightly as Bumblebee and Raf where driving around in Jasper. The Decepticons were very quiet the last few weeks. It even made Optimus worried about it.

So everyone kept themselves busy. Ratchet would work on something, Optimus would go out on a patron or watch the screens for any Decpeticon activity. Miko would drag Bulkhead to one of those monster truck shows or rock with her guitar. Jack would be hanging around with Smokescreen or driving around Arcee.

Raf was enjoying the cold breeze blowing in hair as he held his head out Bumblebee's window. "This is great, Bee!" he said as Bee drove a bit faster.

Raf smiled when Bee set his radio on and play a good song. They kept driving around until two black cars drove behind them. 'Uho!' thought Bumblebee as he saw them.

"What is it, Bumblebee?" Raf asked as he saw Bumblebee speeding up. Bumblebee made some sounds, telling Raf what was going on. "What?! The 'cons are behind us?! Okay, I'll hold on."

Bumblebee drove away from the cons when a familiar car drove past the cons. "Knock Out!" yelled Raf as he looked behind him.

"I've got you now, little Bee." said Knock Out as he catches up with Bee. Bumblebee tried to shake him off, by driving off road, but with no luck.

Bumblebee immediately contacted the others for back up when he saw the 'cons. "We're on our way." Said Optimus's voice over Bumblebee's radio.

Bumblebee drove behind a rock and made sure Raf was out of him, before he transformed and ready in battle position.

Knock Out transformed too and smiled. "Well, well, look what we have here." He said. "The Autobot that's named after a earth insect."

Bumblebee made some fists and looked angry at him. 'I hate it when they say that.' Thought Bumblebee.

"It has been a while hasn't it?" smiled Knock Out. "As you can see the damage you have done, has been fixed, but that still doesn't take the pain away. But now, It's my turn to do the damage on you"

"You wish!" beeped Bumblebee. "You first have to be still standing before you can hurt me!"

"Still have the fighting spirit like usual." smirked Knock Out. "But not for long."

Bumblebee avoid Knock Out's gun shot as the Decepticon started to shoot at him. Bumblebee started to shoot back and slammed into the Decpticon's faceplate as he came close to the Decpticon.

Knock Out hit Bee back in the stomach and tried to shoot him again. Bumblebee shot back and jumped back up, before attacking Knock out again.

That's when Knock Out saw his chance. When Bumblebee came close enough, Knock Out changed his hand into a strange device and started to spray blue stuff on Bumblebee, causing the scout to stumble backwards and fall down as he couldn't see anything.

"Bumblebee!" yelled Raf as he saw it all happening.

Knock Out grinned and was ready to take Bumblebee down, when he heard familiar motor sounds coming their way.

"Looks like the Calvary has arrived." Smirked Knock Out. "See you next time, Bug."

Bumblebee watched Knock Out driving away as the other stopped at his side. "Are you alright my friend?" asked Optimus as he watched Bumblebee helped off the ground by their green friend, Bulkhead.

"Yes, I'm okay, Sir." beeped Bumblebee to his leader.

"Yuck! What is the stuff you are covered in?" asked Bulkhead as he threw some of the blue slime off his hand.

"I'm not sure. Knock Out sprayed it on me when I attacked him." beeped Bee.

Optimus nodded. "Let's go back home. Ratchet, open the space bridge." In a few seconds, the space bridge appeared and they all walked back home.

oOoOoOo

At base, Ratchet was doing a medical checkup on Bumblebee. "Everything is okay. But go and get a decomposition bath." said Ratchet to Bumblebee. Bumblebee nodded and stood up.

"What's wrong my friend?" Opitmus asked when he was sure everyone left.

"When I was scanning Bumblebee, my scanner reacted on something, but when I used it again, it didn't react. I would blame the low technology, but it can't as this is made of Cybertron technology."

"Mmm." said Optimus thoughtfull. "It is indeed strange that Knock Out would use such kind of device as it didn't do anything to a comrade."

"Yes, but I will monitor Bumblebee for a while, to make sure nothing's wrong with him. We have seen how it had turned out with Arcee when she had some of dark energon on her."

Optimus nodded, before letting Ratchet dismiss Bumblebee from any further medical examination.

"Come on, Bee!" said Raf happy. "Let's go and play some video games."

Bumblebee made a yeah sound before he left with Raf. Ratchet watched the youngsters go before he turned back to Optimus. "We should keep a eye on our youngest member, Optimus. I've got a bad feeling about this."

"I know what you mean, my friend. I know." said Optimus as he laid a hand on the old bot.

oOoOo

"Knock Out!" Starscream stormed into the medic bay of the Decepticon ship. "Where the slag where you?! It looks like I didn't made myself clear about these 'fun trips' of you!"

Knock Out looked up as Starscream stormed in. "Calm down. I was just out for a experiment."

"A experiment my aft!" yelled Starscream. "This is the last time you left the ship without my permission!"

"Oh really? Then I guess, you wouldn't be interested hearing about the virus I've planted in the Autobot named Bumblebee." grinned Knock Out.

"A virus?" asked Starscream surprised.

"Yeah, remember the plague virus?"

"Who wouldn't remember it? That virus was one of the best virus ever made by us Decepticons."

"Well, I did some modifications to it."

Starscream smirked when he saw the file. "Good, very good."

oOoOo
