Chapter One

I looked up to the fallen boulders that now blocked my way out of this blasted cave. I growled as kicked a smaller rock then turned and walked the other way; deeper into the cave. I didn't bother to use a light in the pitch black darkness; I was able to see through it, one of my convenient talents that no one cared much for except myself.

I slowed my pace as I saw two flickering crimson lights in the distance. I put my hand to the sheath of my pistol and continued to walk. There was the piercing sound of metal striking metal. Another pair of red lights appeared. I heard another loud clang and a shriek. I froze, took out my pistol, aimed it into the darkness, and got ready to shoot.

The second pair of red lights seemed to come closer. I heard a low growl; I screamed an Autobot battle cry and fired. Sparks flew as the bullets hit its metal armor. As it came closer I saw it's silver body.

"Holy slag!" I screamed as I turned and ran in the opposite direction. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh... I'm trapped in a cave with Megatron... I thought as I sprinted as fast as I could. I slipped on a loose rock and tripped, sliding across the ground until my head met with a rock. The Decepticon leader was about to shoot when a laser beam whizzed past him.

Megatron turned to the direction of where the laser beam had been fired. "You really shouldn't have done that..." he growled with a sound of malevolence and contempt.

I got back up, wiped the blood from my head, and started running again. I could hear more screams and gunfire, but what sickened me the most was the ripping sound. I heard another scream, one that caused me to cease running. After the scream died out, there was silence. Except for Megatron's laugh as I could barely see him throw the torn body aside.

"Good riddance..." I heard him say. I started running towards Megatron, it was stupid and brave, but what is the difference? I was a human-a girl who was chosen by Optimus Prime to be an Autobot soldier (though I can't see why he chose me), I would eventually be killed by a Decepticon anyway. I didn't even know why I was getting mad because my enemy possibly killed my other enemy.

I skidded to a halt as I saw that he disappeared. He teleported... of course, I thought with annoyance in how predictable the Decepticon tyrant was. Then an ominous feeling hit me. I turned to where Megatron had thrown the other Decepticon. It was still there. I could have sworn I saw it twitch. I really am going nuts if I think it's still alive. I forced myself not to scream as I saw it rise its head from the pool of its own energon and look right at me.
