Rings are just what Bumblebee will drive around Goldbug to get warmed up. At least, if that was of interest for him. He doesn't care for fancy car tricks, just assault and homicide. Closer and closer the two yellow cars get, it looks as if they're going to crash...
When Bumblebee transforms into robot mode (again with mask already lowered), tumbles, leaps and lands with a foot extending first, looking to kick sharply into Goldbug's bumper.

Sorry, Bluestreak, but Rodimus does not take the bait. Nor does he follow that pretty pink chassis of Arcee's, although... mmmm... it certainly is tempting. No, he continues driving straight for the last reported location of his alternate, and right out of this thread. OOC: Out of thread. For folks like Blue who find themselves without a one-on-one opponent, remember: if you can't move on to deal with the Decepticons closer to home (the jets, etc), it may not hurt to double-team one of the Autobots-3.

Going from very fast to stop takes no skill. Doing it while transforming and in less than a minute, takes talent-- especially if one wishes to remain in one piece.
So, what is the sound of a Solstice transforming and recoiling from those quick laser-blasts?
"GEYAHHHH!" ClinkclankClick. "AHHHHH!"
Jazz did transform, and remain on those heel-wheels, so forward momentum isn't completely canceled, and one silver Autobot won't be turned into modern art on the side of a wierd foreign road. That would be most unsuitable.
And the insults.... are not understood. There is no blind rage. If not for two things, Jazz would continue to hang back, and try to remain unscathed.
First: The Prime has ordered the deaths of all of the weak Autobots. Second: It looks as though Pee-Dee is pursuing Mirror Perceptor.
And though the idea of letting the ferocious Pee-Dee take down Perceptor is one that might be somewhat pleasant, it still leaves some problems which Jazz cannot overcome alone. Thoughs racing uncontrollably, Jazz falls back into vehicle mode, and roars after Pee-Dee.

Goldbug grunts as Bumblebee impacts with his bumper, but uses the momentum to shift gears into reverse, allowing himself time to transform. With the dent now in his bumper, it's somewhat painful, but thankfully, his engine is on the other side of him, meaning that the damage is actually somewhat minimal. Built Throttlebot though, after all. Compact, simple, but strong.
He pulls his own pistol and fires. "It'll take more than that to stop me!"

That. Was. The. Best. Reaction. Ever!!
It also got the attention of the Mirror Jazz, so now it was time to put the pedal to the metal and get going after Mirror Perceptor.
Assuming she can actually find him in these streets.
Meep-meep!

It takes Bluestreak a minute to realize that the Devil's Winnebago isn't following him. Frankly, he's relieved for that... though that does mean he's off terrorizing someone else.
Spinning around again, he tears off, no less eager to fight another Autobot, albeit an evil one, but still willing to do his part in this battle. No one's taking down his friends, not if he can help it.

Bumblebee catches the shot clean on his right shoulder, recoiling back, as his own arm turns into a weapon. That's going to mess with his aim. Fortunately, he's not planning on aiming the gun. He swings it straight at Goldbug's ugly little head.

WHAM!
Stars explode in front of Goldbug's optics and he goes down to his knees. To his credit, he manages to keep from crying out in pain, not wanting to give Bumblebee the satisfaction. Instead, with his vision still swimming and it being quite hard to focus, he lashes out clumsily with his leg, aiming a blow for Bumblebee's kneecap.

Bumblebee nearly collapses as his knee is kicked, as it is a sizable dent is made from the diminuitive Autobot. Bumblebee thought that his namesake was supposed to be a wimp!
However he's not missing a beat. Reaching down he lunges for Goldbug's foot. If he can grip it with both hands, he's going to swing around a couple of times before sending Goldbug flying into something that's nearby and solid.

When he was rebuilt by Wreck-Gar, Goldbug got several upgrades. A strength boost among them.
That doesn't stop him from being gripped and tossed, though. He impacts solidly with the nearest hard surface, grunting in pain and surprise. Fortunately, he's maintained his grip on his pistol and, from a crouching position, fires off several shots at what he hopes are delicate components.

Bumblebee's plating is a bit unconventional to most people here. It makes a lot of things look like they're exposed. And, well, some of them are. One of the blasts strikes something that makes Bumblebee wince in pain. However it doesn't stop him from extending his shoulder-mounted missiles. They are not aimed at Goldbug, but the wall behind him, hopefully bringing the wall down on him.

"Ha! You missed, you tin-plated cyber-turkey!" Goldbug cackles, before realizing his mistake.
He lunges forward as the wall comes down to that he escapes the brunt of it... but not before it comes down on his legs. The impact with the ground hurts too, and his pistol falls from numbed fingers.

No wonder this one's alternate self was found by Bumblebee as a toy car. He's pathetic.
Bumblebee raises his foot with the intent on slamming it down on Goldbug's gun-holding hand as hard as he can.

Get up get up get up! Do you want to die? You've got to get out here...!
He'd already "died" twice. He wasn't about to die again. Not here, not now, not from some idiotic knock-off.
"Graaah!" Goldbug screams as his gun-holding hand is crushed...
But Goldbug is also a robot. That makes him perfectly ambidextrous. Besides, his other hand is free. He reaches out with that and tries to grab Bumblebee's ankle, to pull him over.

Goldbug is down, wounded, and trapped. Bumblebee shoves his leg at the undamaged hand, preventing the grip.
Bumblebee has been toying with this one too much. There is many more lasercores to crush, more sparks to extinguish, and if he savours this one for too long he'll miss out on the others. He raises his foot to bring it down again, only this time on Goldbug's head...
