"You'll see." He said with a smile, raising his fist, Rumble and Frenzy aimed at him, tightening their grip on their weapons, not hard enough to fire them, but any more pressure and they would be off. I raised my hand into Barricade's view, giving him a hand signal. The Police Chief immediately understood and motioned for Law and Order to follow him. The rest of the police force heard the instructions and they began to evacuate everyone from Decepticon City, but it was a failed attempt, as Rodimus had blocked the exits to the City, where was Astrotrain? "Tell me Rodimus." I growled in my mono-tone voice, raising my gun to aim in between his optics, cocking the weapon, signaling that I was ready to blast his head off. "Now…" He whispered, but it was more than a whisper. His voice had been coded with a special frequency. How could I tell? I'm a Cassette Player, we kind of Cons are built for that sort of thing, and I can decode signals just by listening to them. That kind of frequency can only be given off by something like a code-word, and upon receiving, it would set off a special alarm. Blaster was probably with them, good, I still need a chance to kill my old arch enemy. Blaster was an Autobot Boom box, with Cassette Tapes of his own. No… I slowly thought to myself. I knew this would happen, but I didn't think it would happen today. That's what I get for underestimating the Autobots. "Ambush!" I shouted in warning as the rest of the dome began to crack, snow and Autobots filling the streets. I bared my dentals, firing my weapon, pointed at the Prime's head, but Rodimus was too quick to move, and I ended up missing the shot. The Autobots finally reached the parade and struck at any Decepticon in their way. Some ran, others with combat abilities fought back. I gestured with my weapon for my Cassette Tapes to help out the Decepticon Civilians while I fought with Prime. I broke off from the throne as my Cassette Tapes charged off, and I charged off after Rodimus. While running, I used my communications system to call in some re-enforcements. "Astrotrain? Thundercracker? Skywarp? Anybody? Please respond! Decepticon City is under Autobot siege! Taking heavy causalities, children are at risk, along with other civilians." I shouted, running after my adversary. Astrotrain came to no immediate response, but Skywarp and Thundercracker came flying overhead immediately. I turned around the corner, backhanding some Autobot that stood in my way. From this day forward, this Omega Day would be forever deemed as the second biggest loss of the Decepticons.

My gleaming yellow optics widened with panic and fear as we were immediately surrounded by Autobots, I recognized each one very well. To our right was Blaster, in front of me stood Shadow, the Autobots second-in command, to my left was Hound, and behind me, was Mirage. Each of these Autobots was senior and well respected, along with that, they out ranked Timewarp with not only age, but experience as well. Skill however was a different matter. "Isn't this one cute?" Cooed Mirage, wrenching Fieldwarp from my wife's arms. The little Mech cried out in fear as Mirage took him with a smile. Fieldrunner charged up to Mirage, about ready to take back her son, but in no time at all, Hound blasted her in the back with a basic heat ray. Upon hitting a certain weak spot in her metal, she fell to the floor unconscious, her optics closing on contact with the ground. "Fieldrunner!" I shouted at my wife's is being knocked unconscious. Then I turned to Shadow, clenching my fists, a bluish steam rolling from my mouth. Then my right fist slid into my wrist, a long, yellow Energon flail falling from my arm, the chain clanking on the ground. From my left wrist two laser cannons rose, one with a blue Energon, the other with a yellow Energon, each flowing around. I gave a battle cry and swung to my right, smacking Blaster straight across the face, scraping metal and wire from him. Then I whipped back around, firing the blue laser cannon at Hound, his movements then became choppy and slow. I then smack him upwards in the chin, the yellow Energon of the flail zeroing out the affect of the blue time ray. He fell to the ground, wounded terribly. Unexpectedly, I fell to the ground, face first. I rolled over to find Shadow standing over me, a black Energon sword in her right hand. "Your son will make a good Autobot." She said with a smile, as she raised the sword upwards and quickly brought it down in a stab. Mid-stab, a large black shape tackled her off him a, white and red shape whizzed by Mirage, stealing Fieldwarp. "Wha…?" I mumbled in question, standing back up to see my friend, another history professor, pounding Shadow's face in. "Tumbler!" I shouted in relief that my college was there to save me. He stood up from Shadow, turning to see me. "You know it," He said with a smile as Mach 6 ran up next to me. "Me too." He said. I turned to him. "Where's Fieldwarp? Is he okay?" I asked worriedly. "Don't worry, I put him with Astrotrain. He's going to evacuate the city with the Insecticons. They should be fine." Mach 6 assured me. However worried I was, it was stupid to be. Astrotrain and the Insecticons, that's quite a formidable force. Mach 6 picked up Fieldrunner. "I'll get her safe too, you guys help the rest of the-" He was cut off by a loud explosion behind them. Mach 6 flipped forwards, landing on his back, and Fieldrunner flew even farther into a broken building, landing in a sitting position, her limp body being crushed under rubble as the remains of the building fell upon her. "NO!" I shouted, reaching out towards her. I felt a sudden tugging on my arm, "We have to go!" Shouted Tumbler, grasping my arm, but I pulled back. Then suddenly, everything seemed to just, slow down. The chaos of battle all around me, the sounds of explosion, Tumblers shouting, all just seemed to meld into a muffled quietness. The rubble flying through the air, Autobot facing against Decepticon, Mach 6 getting up, all seemed to just move in slow motion, as if I were traveling through time again. I finally managed to wrench myself of Tumblers grip and charge towards Fieldrunner and the debris she was buried under. As I began to pull at the wreckage, another explosion went off, this time, knocking me unconscious and far away from Fieldrunner. Then all the movement and noise suddenly switched back to its normal volume and speed, startling a bit. My vision began to blur, and I began to fall asleep, the last thing going through my mind was Fieldrunner's body half buried under wreckage and Tumbler carrying me off, Mach 6 following beside us. "No…" I uttered quietly, slowly slipping off into unconsciousness as Tumbler carried me off towards Astrotrain.

I charged off through the streets, dead and injured Decepticons and Autobots at my feet. I wanted to end the Autobots that lie there, and help the Decepticons to the safety of Astrotrain, but there was no time. I had to find Prime. Luckily I had already gotten his sound frequency. His matrix made him rather easy to follow, but being a hot rod gave him a speed advantage over me. I whipped around a corner, my radar told me he had stopped in an alley, he could outrun me, but he could in no way overpower me. I burst past a barricade of broken rubble, scraping my metal plating. Bursting into the alley, scanning around frantically for Rodimus. "Show yourself!" I shouted in anger, my monotone voice echoing around the enclosed space. "Okay." I heard a voice chuckle off in the dark, but before I could turn to see who it was, I was on the ground. A dent in my back and face-first in a puddle of filthy water, I pushed myself up, spitting the disgusting liquid from my mouth. I immediately turned over on my back, seeing Rodimus, I quickly aimed, firing sever shots in his direction, two hitting him in the leg, making him fall to the ground, giving a shout of pain. I smiled getting up and slowly marching over to him; I stomped down on his chest, aiming my weapon at his face. "Call off your Autobots, or I'll blast your head off, right here and now." I threatened, the edge of the barrel began to glow a bright purple. He smiled. "Send me to some scrap yard in Hell; I'll be seeing you there, and not at all too soon." He threatened. I raised an eyebrow, leaning in closer to him. "What's that supposed to-"But I was cut off by a roar and a shriek, I knew those noises and I ran as a dinosaur-like shape cut the corner of the alley we were in. I charged off towards the spaceport, Astrotrain should still be waiting, but not for long. I pressed the button on my shoulder, patching my way through to Astrotrain's communications system. "Astrotrain! Take off immediately! Leave a door open for me, the Dinobots are chasing me, we need to get out of here, NOW!" I shouted. As powerful as I was, I could not take on the Dinobots on my own. Suddenly, I heard the heavy stamp and stomp of mechanical dinosaur feet following me, a shadow looming over me. I knew Grimlock was chasing me, but what he had in strength, I matched him in maneuverability. Finally making my way to the spaceport, Astrotrain was already in the air, the Insecticons levitating next to him. "C'mon! Let's go! He's not coming, coming." Urged Shrapnel. The Stag beetle was never very patient. "Wait! I can see him coming!" Shouted Bombshell. "Hurry, Lord Soundwave!" Yelled Kickback, anticipating. Then, I took the luckiest jump in all of Decepticon history, landing straight in Astrotrains cockpit. "GO!" I shouted to Astrotrain, looking at all the wounded Decepticons around me. The shuttle blasted off, taking the Insecticons with us. The Autobots had taken our city, and we had let them….
