optimus picked back up his axe and swung at scourge.

scourge headbutt optimus, getting optimus off him as bee started firing and was hit into the wall of the nearby building.

optimus and scourge went back to fighting, scourge using his blade to disarm optimus, his axe getting tossed off to the side.

scrouge's blade slashed into optimus' right shoulder and stomach, kicking him in the upper chest and watching optimus' back hit the foutain behind him.

he punched optimus, optimus falling down to his knees as scourge smashed the tall part of the fountain into optimus, knocking him down.

battletraps came up from behind, stepping on optimus with a foor to keep him down.

🔭 | SCOURGE: "and you call yourself a prime.. primus would be ashamed."

bumblebee ran up from behind, grabbing optimus' axe and jumping at scourge but-

bumblebee was impaled by scourge's blade, somehow still conscious and whirring as he was held in a chokehold his scourge, weakly struggling.

he dropped the axe, and optimus watched as it landed in front of him.

scourge readied his arm canon.

🔭 | SCOURGE: "i'm tired of little things getting in my way."

👾 | OPTIMUS: "BEE-"

optimus called weakly, and bee's battle mask moved out of the way.

🐝 | BEE: "-oh, captain, my captain.-"

👾 | OPTIMUS: "no!"

optimus cried, hoping it could do something.

the canon shot into bee's chest, releasing an energy blast which spread over the whole battle ground.

bee's body twitched until the canon was removed, going limp.

scrouge reached up, plucking out bee's autobot insignia was turn off his helm, and bee was thrown to the ground, limp, and leaking.

👾 | OPTIMUS: "bee.."

optimus called weakly, watching as bee warbled, before going limp.

before anything could happen to optimus, a maximal swooped in, just barely saving him.

when the left, mirage came forward.

🪞 | MIRAGE: "no.."

he mumbled, staring at bee's body.

👾 | OPTIMUS: "this.. can't be.."

optimus said, as their humans began to approach the body.
