Chapter 6: Inside the Sick Mind

   3 weeks since it happens the Decepticons attacked the car speed named knockout and Jack and Arcee were attacked by the Decepticons who were stuck here on the earth name Airacnid.

   And now, the Autobots found the Decepticon's location and the Autobot's distress signal, Ratchet grab his medical kit and left on the mission with Optimus. So, everybody in the Base is waiting for them to return. Then Bulkhead realizes that someone is missing.

Bulkhead: "Wait a minute... Have you guys seen Stooges around here?"

Arcee: "Huh? That's funny. For a minute ago, they were standing right here with the kids."

Miko: *She thinks of something.* "Oh! I know! Maybe they were looking around.

Jack: "for wh-"

   He was cut off when he heard the Stooges screaming out of nowhere who was being rolled by some weird wagon with the rockets and headed straight at Arcee and Bumblebee pedes.

Bulkhead: "LOOK OUT!"

   Bulkhead quickly moved them out of the way then Jack realizes where they were headed.

Jack: "Guys, watch out for the..."

Moe, Larry & Curly: "NYAAAH!"

[CRASH]

Autobots & the kids: "Oh!"

Jack: "...Wall."

When the smoke is clear they make a big hole in the wall Stooges were covered with a pile of brick.

Jack: *He went up with them.* "Are you guys okay?"

Larry: *He got out of the brick.* "Yup."

Raf: "What happens and why are you guys riding a wagon with the rocket on it?"

Larry: "Well, we cleaning up the basement with some old stuff in here. We did try not to touch anything in here, but somebody press the button like Moe ask not to."

Curly: *He got out of the pile of bricks and went up to Larry.* "I'm sorry, everyone but how am I  supposed to know that old rocket was still working."

Moe: *He got out of the brick and went up to Curly.* "Oh. Is that so?"

Moe hit Curly's head.

[Bonks]

Curly: "Oh!" *Hold his head.* "What was that for?"

Moe: "For telling you not to touch anything, but now you did."

Curly: "It's not my fault that I like to press the button. Although its was cool when we were riding on the rockets. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk."

Moe: "Oh, you think that cool aye."

Moe punches ourly in the face.

[Punch]

Curly: "Oh!"

Moe: *He showed his fist in front of him.* "See that!"

Curly: [Angry hums]

Curly hit Moe's fist and made him hit his head back.

[Bonks]

Curly: "Oh!" *He holds his head.*

Autobots & kids: [Laughing & Chuckle]

Moe: "Now clean the mess before I hit you again."

Curly: "I'll clean it up when I'm ready."

Moe: *He stood up and went closer to him very angrily.* "Are you ready?"

Curly: "I'll get the broom."

Moe: "And speaking of cleaning. Where are Optimus and Ratchet?"

Arcee: "We had found an Autobots distress signal. So, they went on the mission to check if there were any survivors."

Larry: "Really? Well, I hope somebody else is alive."

   Before she's about to answer Ratchet just calls for the need for a Ground Bridge this urgent. Bumblebee quickly pulled the lever to open the Ground Bridge. When it's open, Ratchet came through with Optimus helping him.

Larry: *He looks a little worried.* "What happened, Ratchet?" *He notices Optimus.* "And what's wrong with Optimus?"

Ratchet: "Optimus has been hit by a virus."

Autobots, Stooges & Kids: "What!?!"

Ratchet: *He scanning him.* "Cybonic plague. It's only contagious if contact is made with the infected energy."

Miko: "What was a plague doing in an Autobot spaceship?"

Moe: "That's what I want to know?"

Larry & Curly: "Us too?"

Arcee: "Its passengers were infected. The virus wiped out millions of Cybertron during the great war."

Ratchet: "Cybonic plague was engineered in the Decepticons' biological-warfare program by Megatron himself."

Raf: "You... Have a cure, don't you?"

Optimus: [Groans] [Straining] "No cure."

Ratchet: "Optimus, please, save your strength."

Jack: "Would Megatron create a disease without having a cure? I mean, what if he caught it by the accident?"

Larry: "I think he's right."

Bulkhead: "It's not like we can ask Megatron, Jack, and Larry. He's pushing up lug nuts."

Ratchet: "But we might be able to access the Decepticons database. For the moment, we still have a fix on their warship's location."

Arcee: "Bumblebee, come with me."

Ratchet: "Arcee, quickly."

Before Arcee and Bumblebee were about to leave, the Three Stooges were following them without even noticing.

Arcee and Bumblebee were in the nemesis and activated their weapons in case the enemies were nearby as the Stooges came in and hide somewhere without letting them know that they were not there.

Arcee: "Let's start with the lab."

   They continue walking through the hallway while still using their weapons. When they stop, they peak around the corner and saw Knockout coming out, so they quickly hid behind the wall.

Knockout stopped and noticed something was used for a few seconds, he just shrugged and walk and walk away. After that, they both went into the lab as Arcee went on the computer to check all the data.

Arcee: "I'm in the network."

   While Arcee was looking through the data, the Stooges peek their heads at the corner and watch them.

Carly: *He almost said it out loud.* "So, Moe. What are we- Hmm?!?"

   He was cut off when Moe and Larry quickly covered his mouth without being caught.

Moe: "Shh..."

Arcee: *She keeps looking, but she found nothing.* "If it's here, I don't see it."

Ratchet: /"Are you certain, Arcee?"/

Arcee: "I searched every file. Nothing."

Ratchet: /"Well, search again! You missed something!"/

Arcee: "I scanned the entire database!"

Ratchet: /"Did you use a redundant quantum algorithm?"/

Arcee: "Don't tell me how to research. You think you're the only one who cares about Optimus?"

Larry: *He almost said it out loud too.* "Well, that's just- Hmm!?!"

He was cut off when Moe and Curly covered his mouth.

Bumblebee: [Buzzing Musically]

Arcee: *She stops the computer and looks at Bumblebee.* "What is it?!" *She went over to Bee.*

Curly: *He whispered.* "I think Bumblebee has found something behind the door."

Moe: *He whispered.* "What?"

Ratchet: /"What is it? What's going on?"/

Arcee: [Gasps] "It's Megatron. He's... alive."

Ratchet: /"That's not possible?"/

Arcee: "Well, I'm staring right at him. The good news is, Megatron isn't exactly staring back. He's critical, hooked up to life support." *She got her weapons ready.* "It's time to finish this once and for all."

Ratchet: /"Wait! Don't!"/

Arcee: "One good reason -- fast."

Ratchet: /"Megatron may be Optimus' only hope for survival."/

Arcee: *She was shocked.*

   While Arcee is chatting with Ratchet, the Stooges were still waiting for them, but they don't know what they found behind the door, so they went over to see what it is, then they saw Megatron.

Curly: "N-"

Moe & Larry: *They quickly cover Curly mouth.*

Curly: "Hmm..."

Larry: *He whispered.* "So that bucket head is Megatron. Man, I thought they were joking?"

Moe: *He whispered.* "Yeah, no kidding me? But look at his size of him. He's bigger than Optimus and scary too."

Curly: *He whispered.* "If he is. He'll be very scary like a circus clown. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk."

Moe hit Curly's head.

[Bonks]

Curly: "Oh!" *He held his head.*

Moe: "Shhh."

While they were listening to their conversation, they heard that Bumblebee was about to go into Megatron's mind to find a cure. After that, Arcee starts to plug into the back of Bumblebee's head, when they heard a click Bumblebee's optics went wide in a few seconds he went offline and all they have to do is wait.

   While they still waiting, the Stooges were becoming more worried about Bumblebee as Arcee was starting to worry too.

Arcee: "Come on, Bee. What are you doing in there?"

   When they heard a hissing noise, Starscream, Knockout, and Soundwave came in. The Stooges quickly hid somewhere else, so they wouldn't be spotted.

Starscream: "Knockout, if you would be so kind as to provide your expert medical opinion to Soundwave... For the Historical record."

Knockout: "Simply put, unaided, Megatron could remain in this deathless slumber forever."

Starscream: "Our Master would not have wanted to be seen this way, to stand idly by while he remains captive in his own body. It's not just."

Soundwave: *He walks up to him and the monitor.*

Knockout: "Brain-wave Activity -- not evidence of consciousness, but nearly of an endless dream from which Megatron may never wake."

Starscream: "Soundwave, we must face reality. Megatron is lost to us."

Knockout: "The only honorable option would be to show him, Mercy."

Starscream: "A simple throw of the switch."

Knockout: "Quick, painless, compassionate."

Arcee: *She whispered.* "Ratchet, are you hearing this?"

Ratchet: /"If Megatron perishes, Bumblebee's mind will remain separated body his body -- forever."/

   On the other side, the Stooges heard everything that Ratchet said.

Larry: "Oh, no. Moe, we have to do something."

Moe: "Alright, let me think."

   A few seconds later, Moe has a plan...

Moe: "Oh, I got one."

While Moe tells his brothers about the plan. On the other hand, Soundwave uses his visor to search for something on the monitor.

Starscream: "Soundwave, do I take your silence to mean you concur with Knockout's medical expertise?"

Soundwave: *He still searching.*

Starscream: "Speak now or forever hold your piece." *He grabs one of the connection cables and is ready to pull out.* "Going..."

Arcee: *She activated her weapons and was ready to fire at them.*

Starscream: "Going..."

   Then suddenly they heard something...

[Honk, honk, honk]

Starscream: "Huh?"

   The trio turned to where the noise coming from... Then there is nothing here.

Knockout: "What was that?"

Starscream: "I don't know. Let's search for the room."

Before their about to search for it, then the same sound came from the other rooms.

[Honk, honk, honk]

Knockout: "There it is again."

Starscream: "Maybe it came from the other room. Soundwave, you stay in this room, while Knockout and I will check on the other room."

   Soundwave nodded.

   After Starscream and Knockout left.

Ratchet: /"Arcee, what happened?"/

Arcee: *She whispered.* "I don't know, Ratchet, but I think that someone else is doing a distraction from them when Starscream almost pulls the cable out."

Ratchet: /"Really. Who?"/

   Before Arcee could say anything, then Raf started to interrupt them.

Raf: /"Uhh... Ratchet, have you seen Stooges? I can't find them?"/

Ratchet: /"What?!? Are you sure?"/

Raf: /"Yes"/

Ratchet: /"Then where are they?"/

While Soundwave was searching around the room, then he heard a little voice. And it comes from behind the monitor, so he went to investigate.

Then he looks around the corner and saw a Stooges were chatting about something. So he releases his hidden cable, then slithers behind Moe.

Larry: [Laughs a little] "Man, I can't believe that works. Great idea, Moe."

Moe: "Thanks, but let's not celebrate yet, we had another mech in the room."

Curly: "Oh, right? The guy with no face on it. So, what are we going to do with him?"

Moe: "Well, let's see... Maybe we could-" *He was cut off when he felt someone push him. And he didn't look back.* "Hey, quit pushing me, I'm trying to think." *He feels pushed again and still not looking back.* "Quit it!" *He got pushed again and started to get annoyed.* "Oh, so that's how you played, huh?" *He's ready to hit someone.* "Why I-" *He saw Soundwave's cable.* "AHHH!!!!" *His hair went up.*

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Larry & Curly: "WHOOP, WHOOP, WHOOP/NYAAHHH!!!"

The Stooges quickly dodge Soundwave's cores without getting caught, so they ran out of hiding as Soundwave went after them.

Arcee: *She heard a scream and saw the Stooges were being chased by Soundwave.* "Uh-oh."

Ratchet: /"Uh-oh? What do you me- Oh, no, please don't tell me?"/

Arcee: "Yup. And they're pretty busy with the cons away from the Megatron from pulling the cable."

Ratchet: /[Groans]/

While the Stooges were kept chased by Soundwave then Starscream and Knockout came in.

Stooges: "NYAA!" *They look back and saw Soundwave coming towards them.* "NYAA!"

Starscream: *He was surprised by what he saw.* "What the... A fleshy? What are they doing here?"

Moe: "Uhh... I-It's a long story as much as I like to tell you, but first." *He turned to Larry.* "Hey, Larry. Do you bring a sledgehammer with you?"

Larry: "Sure thing, Moe." *He grabs the bag, took out the sledgehammer, and gives it to Moe.*

Knockout: "Wait? Why do you need a sledgehammer for?"

Moe: "This!"

[CLANK, CLANK]

   Moe hit them on both Starscream and Knockout Pedes.

Starscream & Knockout: "OWWW!!!!" *They holding their pedes.*

   After that, Soundwave was surprised by what he saw, then a pie came out of nowhere and splat on his visor.

[Splat, splat, splat]

Moe & Larry: *They both look at Curly and saw that he carried a pie.*

Curly: "Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk. See I told you this pie could come and handy."

   Before there about to say, Arcee called them.

Arcee: "Moe! Larry! Curly! Come on, we're going!"

Larry: "She doesn't have to tell us twice."

Moe: "Yeah. Then let's get the heck out of here."

   While Starscream recovering from the pain, he saw the Stooges run. He took a closer look, he was shocked when he saw an Autobots here as the Ground Bridge opened behind them.

Bumblebee: [Buzzing] *He grabs the Stooges and ran through the Ground Bridge.*

Starscream: *He activates his weapon.* "Intruders!"

Arcee: *She aimed the Megatron's connection cable.* "Allow me."

She fired the bolt of Energy and made it hit on Megatron's chassis as it made the cable disconnect. The Arcee jumped into the portal just as the portal closed.

[High-Pitched Ringing]

Starscream: *He smirked and then play along.* [Sighs] "It was an inevitable outcome."

Soundwave: *He shot deadly glared at him and pointed at Megatron.*

Starscream: "Ahh. Of course, it would be wrong to allow Megatron to perish at an Autobot's hand. Knockout."

Knockout: *He just shrugged and reconnect the cable on Megatron's chassis.*

After Arcee, Bumblebee, and the Stooges came back on the mission, Ratchet finally cured Optimus.

Ratchet: *He tried to help him up.* "That's it. Steady."

After that, everyone was cheering for Optimus.

Optimus: "Please. Reserve the hero's welcome for my physician... And my scout and Ratchet friends."

They all cheering on Ratchet, Bumblebee, and the Stooges. And the Stooges were glad to be with them.

Starscream walks into the lab as he saw Knockout working on the monitor by his patient.

Starscream: "And how is the patient doing today?"

Knockout: "Funny you should ask. Not sure what the bots did in there, but Megatron's registering zero brain-wave activity."

Starscream: "Hmm. Meaning?"

Knockout: "Physically, he's stable, but now there's... No one home."

𝔹𝕒𝕔𝕜 𝕥𝕠 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕓𝕒𝕤𝕖

While everyone was still cheering for them. Bumblebee took a bow, then suddenly Bumblebee started to feel strange, it was like something... Or someone coming from his helm. Inside Bumblebee's helm, in the darkness, a bloody red optic shows up.

Megatron: "I'm out. Or should I say in?" [Laughs Evilly]

Everything went black!
