Bumblebees Lost Love(tfp)

Truth

RAFS POV

"Hey Bee. Why did Ashley make bets and all that with other bots" I ask him

"Well Raf. As time went on in racing, it became more brutal. Bots started making threats. Well bots would make threats to Ashley. Ashley did bets because she was trying to protect her and I. They would make threats to hurt me or destroy something of hers. That's why she did bets"

"So bots really hated Ash"

"Ya. That's because she won most races she was in. Racers were sick of her winning"

"So Ash isn't bad. She made bets for your protection, not evil and mean stuff"

"That's right. Arcee thinks differently. That's cuz she's seen other bots do evil things so she thinks that Ashley did the same, but she didn't"

"So Ashely's the good bot in racing" bee chuckled.

"If you've seen her race, you will think differently"

ASHLEYS POV

I feel like an idiot. I knew I shouldn't have taken them racing. I keep saying that over and over in my head. It was almost Midnight. I made my way down to the track. It seemed like yesterday I was making my way down to the track for the last time I raced before the war started. And now my first race after the war. I feel like I'm making a mistake by racing them, but I already said I would. As I near the track, I see the three bots that I would race. They all turn to me.

"Well. You decided to show up" one says

"I had to" I say. They smirk. Something doesn't seem right.

"Well let's get this race started" another says. We all make our way to the start of the track. We all transform into our car forms. Then the bots count down.

"Three"

"Two......."

"One" and on one we all took off. We raced along the straight track. Then the turns and loops came. I was in front. I look in my mirror behind me. They seemed like they weren't even trying. Something definitely doesn't seem right. Once we finished the first lap everything turned. They raced up behind me and hit me. They then slammed into me from the side. It was time to get serious. Time to race like I used to. I slammed into the one to my right. He almost fell off the track. The jump was coming. I was about the gain speed when I was hit from my side again. I didn't have enough speed to make the jump. I just kept going. I took off for the jump. I landed with my back wheels almost off the edge. The others landed behind me. They came up behind me and two came up next to me, one on each side. I knew they were both going to hit me. At the right moment I slammed on my brakes and the two cars hit each other. They fell back and I took the lead again. We then finished the second lap. One more to go. I sped up more. The three cars surrounded me. All at one time they collided into me. I veered off to the side and they all passed me. I knew I couldn't lose. I quickly sped up and caught on to them. We were nearing the finish line. We reached the straight away and I gave it my all. I passed all three of them at the last second and beat them all. A few feel from the finish line I transformed. The three other bots transformed and started to run toward me. I stepped back. They then all tackled me to the ground. I tried to get up. Then one of them punched me and everything went black
