User blog:Spikewitwicky/January 24th, 2017 - Spike's Journal Entry



I'm in the repair bay, taking a bit of a break. Listening to Nina Simone's 'Anthology' - and no 'bot seems to complain. However, the ones in here are in stasis, so I guess that doesn't count.

I pulled the trigger yesterday. I don't know if A3 wanted me to do this or not, but I took Bumblebee out to where we hid the plasma energy chamber key. My hands were shaking all of the time. I have no idea what the thing does. All I know is that it may or may not be absolutely critical in the preservation of Cybertron. I decided the Decepticons would probably converge if a full phalanx of Autobots were at the drive-in. But if it's just a lowly human, the 'cons probably wouldn't pay me a second notice. Still, I had to take Bee along for the ride.

Things were going fine - although I did panic for a bit after I was digging and I didn't 'hit' anything. Did they already come and pick it up? It also didn't help that Dust Devil went and did the incredibly dickish thing of 'sniping' Bee with a paintball. Asshole! Just think - you are digging up an critical artifact, and all of a sudden, you get hit. Your instant reaction is that the hit is lethal. And of course, it turns out to be just a damn joke.

But...it's hard to stay mad at him. The key is back in engineering. Safe and sound. Now, I just hope that Perceptor, Prime, or Wheeljack know what to do with it.
