Told you we should go running.

We're here now..so we must stay...

Dahlia simply nodded slightly and looked ahead as they get closer to the large rock formation. She gazed up at it curiously, and glanced left or right as she thought about where they would go next. Though she noticed that Bumblebee was not slowing down, which was strange. There was a stop sign ahead, but he was not even going to stop, and it made Dahlia tense and shift nervously in the seat as she stared.

She glanced back for a moment at Jack, Miko and Arcee, before looking forward, gasping as Bee drove straight through the crossroad and off the road. Dahlia flinched as she heard the dirt and rocks under his tyres as he drove straight towards the wall of the rock formation. She frowned nervously before widening her eyes in shock as a pair of heavy, duty, automatic doors opened in front of them, leading into a long, dark hallway.

Dahlia stared at the hallway, and flinched as memories of the dark laboratory flooded her mind, reminding her of the evil that came from there. She took deep breaths trying to keep herself calm, looking out the window and jumping as she saw the white lights above. She swallowed nervously, glancing around to see if there might be a way she could get out, but she could not see anything. At least not yet.

Bumblebee noticed how Dahlia was acting. She seemed to be panicking all of a sudden, and she was glancing around as though something bad was going to happen to her. Bumblebee could not help but think she's been somewhere with a dark room and forced to endure things that were horrible. He felt sorry for her. Those scars he could see weren't the problem, and he did not know if it was possible to help her.

Bumblebee slowed down now that he was inside the tunnel, and he eventually drove into a large room. Dahlia peered out to see the room was very tall and wide, with multiple level platforms and catwalks. There were large consoles with screens built into the sides of the platforms, and it seemed that this might the lobby of the base, as she saw a couple other hallways leading to other areas of this base. And it seemed there was a tunnel they hug dug out as well, though she didn't see it leading anywhere, though it might have a use, given the rings that was built into the tunnel as well.

And there was another bot present here. She saw Bulkhead as well, as it seemed he had been waiting here for Arcee and Bumblebee to return. Though the other bot, who was white and orange, had an ambulance symbol on his body, and she guessed he turned into an ambulance. And he was gazing at the humans who were looking at him. Dahlia could hear that Rafael was amazed by this, but she wasn't. This just made her even more afraid.

When Bumblebee came to a stop, Rafael climbed out immediately, as he was excited. But Dahlia was hesitant for a moment before Bee opened the door for her. She sighed and stepped out cautiously, glancing at Arcee, as she had transformed, and jumped when Bee transformed beside her. Dahlia glanced around nervously and swallowed, not sure of what to do. She sniffed a little, and she could smell the strange scent she had caught from the bots the day before. She guessed it could be their blood she could smell, though she doubted they had blood.

We hate this. This place is so big...we don't see any cages or chains...they might be hiding that.

Maybe...I wonder if that bot is their leader.

Nah, he looks older than Bulkhead. We can see parts of his joints is worn down a lot more than the joints on Arcee, Bulkhead and Bumblebee.

Oh, yeah. I can see that now. Ugh...sometimes it creeps me out with how good my eyesight is.

Makes it a lot easier to spot the smallest detail. How else are we able to spot a mouse, crab or little bird when we are desperate for food?
