-grins- I hath decided to make a mini-series of the letters. So, this is a continuation of iGoodbye/i and iWelcome Back/i. ReadiWB/i and then iGoodbye/i before this.

Disclaimer: I own nobody and nothing 'cept the plot and idea of Long Haul being Hauler, even though I know that Hauler and Long Haul are not the same in Canon. Well guess what! This ain't canon. This is FANfiction. Got it? =3

NOTE: This alludes to the new AVATAR movie. You'll see why.

Scavanger,

Despite what you think, I did get your letter. Optimus made sure I got it, even though Red Alert was going crazy over the thought. Unfortunately, the officers read it before I did, and Red Alert's even more spastic then before he read it.

I saw you guys on the battle field too. I wanted to cry when I saw Sideswipe ram his fist right through him. But I didn't. Not then. As soon as you all left, I collapsed into tears. I cussed Sideswipe out, and…

I'm sorry about Mixmaster. My Spark aches from the hollow space he left behind in our bond. I was kept in the Medbay by Ratchet until he deemed me mentally healthy.

Of course, many of the others protested. They never knew I was sent to sabotage the 'Cons. Go figure.

Bonecrusher doesn't feel that way you know. I know he doesn't. I can feel it. He cares. He has always cared, ever since our last mission together, the one that sent us to the planet Pandora. He's just hurt right now Scavenger. He'll get better over time.

So will Scrapper. He and Mixmaster were close, but they were not bond mates. He'll move on. So will you.

To be honest, I don't understand this war either. I've seen both sides. And we both want to save Cybertron, but Megatron wants to take over the universe as well. That's the only difference between the factions, other than the Decepticons are brutal.

Scavvy… My little Scavvy, I love you. You are my best friend. But more than that, you are my brother. The other Autobots won't understand, nobody but the Gestalts. And if you want to join the Autobots, than I praise any god out there that you will never experience the pain of beatings ever again.

I will be the first to welcome all of you if you wish to join the Autobots. I will get on my knees and thank Primus that you won't die by Megatron's beatings on you, or by my faction.

I'm sorry if you get into trouble with this, but getting my letter. But I need you to know that I will never forget you guys. And I will always love you, my brothers.

I suppose, this really is goodbye…

Love,

Long Hauler

P.S. Yes, I changed my designation.
