CHAPTER VII

     The chase between you and the secret service went on for what felt like an hour but luckily lasts for a couple of minutes due to Bumblebee's motor.. not exactly being human-made. The two of you stop in an alleyway, the feeling similar to that of the chase with the police vehicle.
     "Damn, you can drive better than me." You mutter, laughing faintly as an attempt to lighten up the mood. Though Bumblebee doesn't respond, he forces his shift stick to park. You open your mouth to ask what's wrong but is only meant with the radio buzzing with static.
     "Optimus- isn't responding to my- signal," Bumblebee informs, his radio station beginning to switch from channel to channel. "I have to make sure your- brother is okay." The more he kept switching the channels, the more you felt the engine heat up: he's becoming stressed.
     "Hey." You call out, taking ahold of the radio control which prevents the bot from switching the channel. "Isn't Optimus your leader? I'm assuming he's kept you guys safe before, so, I'm sure he's keeping Sam safe." Continuing, with that, Bumblebee's engine begins to slow down, his shifter turning to neutral.

     "Plus, I think you're forgetting one thing."
     "I- am?"
     You couldn't help but give a reassuring smile. "You can track our phones." You remind, hearing a whirr in response. With that, your seatbelt only tightens and the vehicle begins to drive off.

     "Do you see them?" Bumblebee questions, looking around as his hands tighten around the steering wheel. You look around, nothing out of the ordinary except for an empty bridge. "No.."
     "That's odd, it says that they're nearby." His eyes begin to brighten up, making a hologram of a map with Sam's coordinates on them. You look over the direction it points at before taking note of helicopters flying under the bridge. However, it makes a quick turn back. "There." Patting Bumblebee's shoulder and without warning, the hologram begins to speed off in the direction.
     "Bumblebee!" Yelling out, holding onto the door and seat before noticing two figures hanging off under the bridge. Not long after- the two fall.

     "Hold on!" Bumblebee's hologram quickly disappears and the vehicle itself begins to transform. In a blink of an eye, you notice Sam next to you, Mikaela in Bumblebee's other hand while the bot himself scrapes across the concrete.
     "Are you three- okay?" Bumblebee's radio begins to static, placing the three of you down and quickly nodding. "Thank... Thank you." Sam thanks in a whisper, trying to catch his breath and Mikaela only goes over to him. "We got to get out of here."
     Lights begin to appear behind her, as everyone turns their heads to see helicopters in a distance, but coming at a fast speed. Turning around to see another set coming towards you, surrounding everyone. "Wait wait, hey!" Yelling as Bumblebee hovers over you three as a shield, but a cable wire only latches onto his hand, forcing him off you with a pull. Another wire latches to his other arm, pulling it to the other side, causing him to spin with his arms outstretched.
     "No!" Everyone begins to cry out, as Bumblebee only struggles to get the restraints off. More wires begin to hold him down, forcing him to the ground. He tries to speak but no words came out, the only thing everyone can hear is the sound of him begging.

     "You have to fight back-" You end up pleading, but the Autobot shakes his head.
     "I have- orders-"
     "I don't care about the mission right now! They're about to kill you off!" Your plea only turns into yelling, as you attempt to pull Bumblebee out of the restraints. You knew that wasn't gonna work. But you just want to at least try anything.
     "Get down in the ground!" A soldier yells from a speaker. "(Y/N)!" Sam calls out for you but you didn't turn around, you only continue to pull. That isn't gonna work.
     "I... I can't lose you." Your throat begins to choke up, looking over to see Bumblebee's eyes staring right at you. You couldn't read much of his expression in this form, but he can read yours.
