pastwillhaunt, I fail....
My net is finally working but the scanner's broke. I has a piccy for Dreadnought but I can't upload it. So instead I'm finishing a story so you have something this month, but I will add on the picture ASAP so you have that too.

"Bumblebee?"
"Rawr?"
"Bumblebee!"
"Rawr!"
"Bumblebee!"
CLANG!!!
"MROWR!!!
Mad giggling.
"Where was she?!" Dreadnought's head snapped up as Two leapt straight in the air, curling his injured flank up and then scrabbling away from the hardware that had hit the floor and started sparking. Dreadnought sighed, shooting the sparks and the cat with his fire extinguisher. Two gave him a mildly poisonous look as he took an extra shot to the muzzle, then went to the spot where the hardware had perched previously and sniffed around for a moment before shaking his head.
Dreadnought looked around, then moved over. "Bee, come here, now!"
Suddenly a maniacal giggle was heard from a far corner, and at once Dreadnought and Two sprang to their feet, racing over to the pile where it might have come from and starting to dig as quickly as they could without causing more of Ratchet's tools to collapse.
Once they'd moved the pile and found nothing they blinked, then each turned and dug to the side, searching madly for the tiny bot. By the time they'd finished and turned the two were dismayed to find themselves trapped in a corner by a wall of junk.
//She... was here, wasn't she? You heard her?// Dreadnought looked at Two. The felanoid gave him a miffed look, then perked his ears as the tiny bot's giggle floated from across the pile. Dreadnought's face stiffened, and he sighed, looking at Two. //You move it back.//
The feline gave an impatient huff, then growled as the fire extinguisher blasted his nose again. Giving a Look to stop electricity mid-circut the cat succeeded in warding off the giant bot, who sighed and looked at the junk.
//We gotta get out somehow.//
//Mraw?//
//I guess that could work. Think Ratchet would be kind of peeved, though. Better not.// "Bumblebee, come here."
There was no answer, and the bots huffed and started to dig themselves out. Finally free they looked around carefully, then started poking around.
"This stuff still giving your tracking device #$%^?" he asked Two, who nodded. The mech looked around, then folded his arms across his chest. "I'm counting to three, Bumblebee. One... you're going to be in trouble if you don't come out. Two... I'm warning you-"
"Beeee?" a tiny voice crooned. Dreadnought and Two spun to see Bumblebee in all her glory, perched on a a stereo the size of a motorcycle, poking at some buttons. Dreadnought's eyes widened.
"Don't hit that-!"
A deafening squeal heralded the speakers' exploding before the machine died. As the white noise in his processor slowly faded he became aware of bittyBee's frightened and upset cries, and he hurried over, picking her up and cradling her close.
"Bumblebee... oh, no, there there, it's ok," he said, frightened that she'd hurt herself. She quieted almost as soon as he picked her up, however, and snuggled against him, sniffling, then smiling and gibbering softly before falling asleep in his arms. He smiled down at her, then went to the door before pausing.
//You ok?// he asked Two, who wobbled slightly, but followed him and Bee dutifully. Dreadnought smiled and patted his head, then looked down at Bumblebee. //C'mon, let's put her t' sleep.//
