Later that day, the sound of building was heard as the Autobots won but the sense of tension was in the air again. Meanwhile, Hoist had grabbed the large roll aluminium foil from the kitchen and went to go find Searchlight. He found Searchlight who was busy preparing the grave for the human body outside a few kilometres from the Ark as Hoist gave him the foil. He glanced at it carefully making sure that there wasn't any dirt or unclean spots as he nodded before putting to the side of the grave. He soon cut the grass from the side of the grave before wrapping the body in aluminium foil and finished afterwards. He put the body inside of the grave before climbing outside of the grave and began putting dirt over it. Hoist looked over the large mass of graves which some were going over the hills. A large amount was human graves while others were resting places for Cybertronians.
Searchlight finished after a bit before saying "That's the human grave 7890 out of the 13,780 death areas." He put a post-it note at the front of the grave, showing the grave's number and human's name which was known as 'Julian'. Searchlight got up with a serious look before saying "Call me if you find anymore bodies I should be aware of." He soon grabbed the shovel, aluminium foil and flower seeds and left as Hoist noticed oddly enough that flowers seem to been growing in the dirt of the grave. Some were common flowers such as Chrysanthemums and daisies but rare flowers such as Black Crystila which was a black flower with orange petals and Jade vine.
Firestorm had arrived at the base of the Ark, the cool air going through his engines as he transformed into his robot mode. His feet hit the grass as he had a smug smirk on his face, as he was confident this would finally cause some large lasting damage to the Autobots. He grabbed something out of his sub-space which was the black present wrapped in yellow wrapper. He grabbed more of those black presents in different coloured wrappers and began setting them around the base, unaware that Hotlink and some of the seekers were watching behind the trees. He soon unwrapped the presents and removed the black cloth as it was revealed that they were human-made dynamite used for explosions. He soon uncovered all of them before hearing noises as he soon ducked down from the windows. He waited for noises of chatting to be done as he got up after a bit, grabbed a purple lighter that he found in the Decepticons'base and began lighting up the bombs. He backed off and ran away.
Soon loud noises was heard as Bumblebee who was on his datapad heard them and turned around in confusion. There was noises of small bangs was heard before they paused for a moment before sounds of loud bangs was heard. He jumped in surprise as deafening noises of thick glass was heard shattering, with some of the humans and Autobots that was nearby had been cut and the human's flesh had spilt apart as multiple shards implant and embedded themselves in. Small parts of the wall fell apart causing some of the large bolts, hitting some of the people that were nearby. There was panicked yelling as footsteps were heard running and the locked doors had been barged down as Optimus, Jazz and Ratchet came to see what has happened. They looked in horror as the bombing continued, with the plant pots falling off the shelves and the chairs flipping over to their sides. The lights fell down, causing the glass to crash as one of the candles fell near the couch, causing a fire as the soft material start to flame.
One of the shelves fell over and immediately fell on a human, suffocating them as Ratchet had no hesitation and immediately removed the shelf over the human who had strained their leg and their arm was bloody as they felt like their nerves were all over the place. They gasped as they tried to gain a sense of a breath as Ratchet saw their teary eyes. The Autobots who where injured had their armours dented but overall were doing better than the humans. They were trying to help their allies up in the midst of the chaos as the sound of alarms and loud ringing was yelling through the air. Another human was hit by a falling pipe as they were pushed back against the wall and was knocked out unconscious. Hot Rod who was in his quarters had dodged some of his things being thrown at him. In no time, he got up and dodged the chair from hitting his feet, grabbed his datapad and ran into the main room.
More candles fell down, only another one hitting the flaming couch as the second candle set it even more ablaze. The fire soon began hitting the books, the books starting to flame up. The edges of the books became black as they fell downwards like tears hitting the floor as their covers melted under the pressure of the fire. Jazz grabbed a bucket, filled it with water and began putting it on the fire, Jazz began yelling and his old voice sounded with urgency "Someone help me here!" Bumblebee heard and went to the sink which was in the next room, grabbed a bucket and began filling it up. The humans tried their best to help the Autobots and the rest of their friends as more of them got injured in the attempt to help. One of them got burnt by accident and another tripped on the glass as one of them had been hurt by a wooden furniture as they bled out a bit.
After 30 minutes, the fire calmed down and the explosions had stopped but there was no denying the damage was caused. 12 or 13 humans had been killed but the majority had been wounded or still alive in shock. Red Alert, Hoist, First Aid and Ratchet was dealing with the injured Autobots and humans as thankfully no Autobot had been dead but some of them has passed out or were injured. A few of them were in shock and needed to recover. War was messy and causalities were expected but this was an event that nobody not even Optimus could have expected as cries were heard in the air and sounds of panted breathing was heard. The humans were trying to wake their friends up as Optimus could feel a huge pang of guilt in his own spark. He had lost not only his friends but the humans were closest to him. It's been a few years since he met them and their loss was heavy.
He saw someone coming from the fog, and it was Sideswipe, his leg looked to be leaking energon and he was no longer smiling as usual. He sat down near Optimus as Optimus was holding a dead human. He looked up as energon spilled from his leg and onto the floor as he soon asked with his voice worried "Optimus... What do we do?" As Optimus didn't know how to reply as he tried to fix the muddled thoughts in his own head. Optimus soon replied with only one thing in his tone "Ask Jazz to get the rest. We will see what we can do." Sideswipe soon got up and limped to go to get Jazz. Optimus saw a strange yellow wrapper on the floor as he grabbed it up. His sensors detected the smell of smoke on there and kept it by his side.
Firestorm had gotten into trouble by Hotlink telling him to Soundwave but was mostly let off for causing large amount of damage to the Autobots which should have weakened them. However there was a linger of worry that they may become prepared.
