Sideswipe looked over at Mazikeen as he crossed his arms,
"He's taking a long time. Are we sure about this?"
Ratchet rolled his optics,
"Sideswipe, I will say this again. Wheeljack is someone we can trust. He is an Autobot. And he is the only one that can do this,"
Sunstreaker frowned,
"That doesn't mean we like it,"
Ratchet sighed,
"Yeah, get in line behind Jazz."
Sideswipe sighed,
"He's still out with Bee getting Sam,"
Ratchet nodded,
"Trust me, I know,"
Sunstreaker glanced over at Tex,
"Is Tex going to be alright?"
Ratchet frowned,
"You both are feeling better, yes?"
Sideswipe nodded,
"Yeah, we don't feel any pain coming from Aero,"
"It is similar to the numb feeling but also very different. Why not ask Barricade?"
Ratchet winced and shook his head,
"Prowl is watching over him in the next room. Those two need to discuss different matters. The Bot I am most worried about is Tex. He has not shown any improvements since Mazikeen has come. His stats are very similar to hers, and I do not like it one bit,"
Sunstreaker's optics widened,
"Do...do you think it's because he doesn't have a spark? Will he offline if Mazikeen does?"
Ratchet sighed and looked at the small Cybertronian,
"I believe so,"
They all closed their optics at the thought of losing two at the same time.

Optimus was pacing in thought until he heard a sound from behind him. He turned to see Rosalyn walking over to him. Optimus knelt down, and she immediately climbed onto his servo. She looked up into his optics,
"Alexa will be alright, right?"
Optimus smiled softly at her and nodded,
"She will be. She is very brave and strong. She will save Mazikeen,"
Rosalyn sighed and nodded,
"Then why are you pacing, boss bot?"
Optimus sighed and softly sat down against the wall,
"I can not help it,"
Rosalyn smirked,
"Yeah, I know. I'm worried about Sides and Sunny. But, pacing won't prevent it,"
Optimus slowly nodded,
"That is true. Thank you, Sophie,"
Rosalyn smiled and patted his servo,
"We will get our girl back,"
Optimus chuckled and nodded,
"We will,"

Athena crossed her arms as she glared at the Medical Bay door. Bluestreak sighed,
"Aura, glaring at the door won't make Ratchet open it,"
Athena grunted and sighed,
"I know...but I just want to see May,"
Eddie sat down next to her while holding Hope,
"I know, but trust me, you don't want to see her like this,"
Athena glanced over at him and sighed,
"I just want to see her,"
Elisabeth nodded as she set Aaron down in Bluestreak's servo,
"We all do, hell, I even tried getting Dino in,"
Mirage sighed,
"Ratchet sniffed me out,"
Eddie laughed,
"I figured he would,"

Barricade crossed his arms as he glared at Prowl,
"Why am I here?"
Prowl sighed,
"Barricade, you are here because Ratchet thinks that it is better for some separation between you and Mazikeen,"
Barricade grumbled,
"I do not think that is a wise choice,"
"Well, what do you feel right now?"
Barricade sighed and looked down at his servos,
"It is similar to when we broke our bond. I don't sense Mazikeen, and I don't like that I don't sense her."
Prowl frowned and put a servo on his shoulder,
"Barricade, I regret our past fights. I wish we did not separate,"
"But we did. Nothing is going to change that,"
Prowl sighed,
"I know. Just...let me help you,"
"There is nothing that can help. Mazikeen needs to wake up,"
"They will come back with what she needs,"
"How can you be so sure?"
"During my time on this planet, these small people have taught me that we must have hope."
Barricade sighed and nodded,
"Fine."

Mazikeen opened her eyes to see blue light surrounding everything. She frowned,
"Hello?"
She heard footsteps and turned to see Mudflap and Skids,
"M-Mudflap? S-Skids?"
The two smiled softly at her and knelt down in front of her,
"Hey, lil Boss,"
Mazikeen felt her heart clench as she looked at the two,
"W-Why are you here?"
Skids sighed,
"We should be asking you that,"
Mudflap nodded,
"Yeah, why are you here?"
Mazikeen looked at her hands and shrugged,
"I used my powers to kill Unicron's spark in a different universe,"
Mudflap and Skids shared a look,
"Did you use all of them? Or just like how ya did in Egypt,"
Mazikeen shrugged,
"I think all of it. I mean, that's pretty much what Primus told me...he said that Wheeljack and this kid would be able to help me get them back so I could survive...now answer my question. I haven't seen you two in a long ass time...the others said that you guys would be okay, but...I had a bad feeling,"
Skids sighed and brought his servo down, and patted her head gently,
"We are sorry, lil Boss...we were offlined,"
Mazikeen's eyes widened,
"Wh-What?!"
Mudflap nodded,
"Yeah, we got snuck up on, and then boom...we joined the well of the AllSpark,"
Mazikeen frowned,
"But...I don't understand. How are the three of us in the Well? Especially since I have the power of the AllSpark, wouldn't that mean the power to heal the dead Cybertronians or something?"
Skids shrugged,
"We don't know. I guess we will never know,"
Mazikeen looked around and felt frustrated at not being able to see anything other than blue,
"It's so fragging blue, I can only see you two,"
Mudflap smiled softly,
"That's good,"
Mazikeen frowned,
"What do you mean?"
Skids chuckled, and the two finally sat down in front of her as she leaned against their legs. Mudflap chuckled,
"Boss, put two and two together, You're smart,"
Skids nodded,
"The smartest human we know,"
Mazikeen sighed,
"Well...how am I speaking to the two of you if you are dead?"
Mudflap sighed,
"You are...well...you are on the verge of death,"
"Limbo, as you call it."
Mazikeen frowned,
"But...why am I seeing you if I'm a human?"
Mudflap laughed,
"Our best guess is Primus. You have to keep fighting, Lil Boss,"
Skids nodded,
"Yeah, who else is gonna keep everyone in check?"
Mazikeen sighed and looked at the two of them,
"I'm tired,"
Mudflap nodded his head,
"Yeah, well. After you go back to Prince Charming, you can get all the sleep you want,"
Mazikeen frowned in confusion,
"Prince Charming?"
Skids rolled his optics,
"Jazz. You love him,"
Mazikeen blushed but nodded,
"Y-Yeah...I do,"
Mudflap smirked,
"We know. I refuse to let you fragging die without getting the fragging guts to confess to him,"
Skids nodded,
"Yeah! We waited long enough for that scrap."
Mazikeen sighed and chuckled,
"Okay, sheesh. I'll tell him when I wake up and get the chance,"
Mudflap smirked,
"Oh! When you have a sparkling with him, we call dibs on naming the lil Cybertronian!"
Mazikeen gasped and glared at him,
"HEY! I can't have any babies!"
Skids rolled his eyes,
"That's why we said Sparkling! You created Tex! You can create another one with Jazz as the Sire,"
Mazikeen frowned,
"Huh? How?"
Mudflap and Skids laughed,
"We aren't telling,"
Mazikeen rolled her eyes,
"Whatever. What do you want their name to be?"
"Skipper, Cometblaze,"
Mazikeen chuckled and nodded,
"Alright, if I have another sparkling, I will give them one of those two names,"
Mudflap smiled brightly and nodded his head at her,
"It was an honor knowing you, Lil Boss...it seems like your ride is here,"
Mazikeen tilted her head in confusion before looking to the side and seeing a bright light. Skids smirked,
"In this case, go into the light,"
Mazikeen rolled her eyes,
"Bye, Terrible Twos,"
"Bye, Boss,"

"No, no, no!"
Sunstreaker and Sideswipe winced as Ratchet frantically looked between Mazikeen and Tex as the machines beeped loudly,
"Ratch-"
"MAZE DON'T YOU DARE DO THIS!"
His holo-form buzzed to life as he frantically checked her pulse,
"Primus, please let Sam and Alexa come now!"
Sunstreaker looked at the door,
"Amy and Jolt-"
"Can't help! We need that energy source now!"
There was a loud noise from outside and the doors burst open as Alexandra flew in with something in her hands,
"HERE!"
Phoenix came off as they landed, and Alexandra handed a necklace to Ratchet.
"This is it,"
Ratchet nodded,
"Just in time!"
He softly clasped the necklace around Mazikeen and stepped back. He turned off his holo-form and watched carefully as the necklace started to softly glow blue. Then, Mazikeen was wrapped in a blue glow. Her pulse returned as her stats started going back to normal. Ratchet let out a sigh of relief as he watched the glow start to get brighter,
"Alexa, get back,"
Alexandra took a step back, and Ratchet softly picked her up as he continued to watch with Sunstreaker and Sideswipe right next to him. They were all forced to close their eyes/optics as the glow brightened even more. Ratchet gasped as he opened them to see that Mazikeen was gone,
"MAZIKEEN!"

Hmmm...I wonder where Mazikeen teleported to 🤭
Don't kill me pls!
I have a small fun lil thing for y'all since I know how much you all love the suspense.
The next chapter has been started! I have to finish it, I hope to finish it within the next two days! Hehe, there is a price for Mazikeen being brought back to life, literally yoinked from the Afterlife.
