Skyleen running into his arms was defiantly not what Jetfire had expected. But then again what did he expect? He didn't think he'd see her again, alive. Feeling the touch of the femme, he brought his arms up to wrap around her tiny frame. It just seemed too good to see her that a thought crossed his mind. What if this wasn't really her, what if he was dreaming? Skyleen shifted in his arms and met him in the optic. A small smile played at the corner of her mouth.

It was the same smile Rosaline had.

"If this is a dream I never want to wake up." He whispered for only her to hear, pulling her closer against his body in a tighter embrace. Skyleen's hands broke free from behind his neck. The left one traced underneath his face to his chin while the right one slid up the back of his neck. Standing on her tip toes she put her lips by Jetfire's left receptor.

"I'm real." She whispered then swept her lips against his metal below the receptor while backing her head up to look him in the face again. She liked being able to look him in the eye now. Skyleen broke their embrace so that she could turn to talk with Optimus. However the side of her still rested against Jetfire's body. Making sure he stayed by her side.

"Glad to see you again." Optimus said to her.

"I've really missed you guys. What made you believe I am who I said I am?" Optimus looked a little shocked. He wasn't expecting that question and wasn't sure how to answer it since her memory seemed to have not returned.

"Because only Rosaline wouldn't understand the point of a simple game of tag." He lied jokingly. She returned a small smile of amusement.

"So, you're one of us now?" Hotshot asked after poking her a couple times as if he couldn't believe it. Jetfire swiped his hand at Hotshot to back off.

"I guess so." She shrugged.

"How did you get away?"

"Sideways had the keys in his hand when he got into a fight with Starscream and dropped them right in front of me, I grabbed them before anyone noticed. It was really weird, as if he meant for me to get them." Optimus rubbed his chin.

"Yes I've been reviewing some battles that Lazerbeak caught on tape, Sideways has me…. curious. He doesn't act like he's a fully devoted Decepticon. Sometimes he fires at his own teammates, yet no one would know unless they view the tapes." He said. Skyleen decided to change the subject, so many hours with the Decepticons, she was sick of them.

"Blurr, when did you get here?" Blurr looked up, he hadn't moved since backing off from her. Before answering he looked at Optimus, it was obvious that he still didn't believe that she was who she said she was.

"I arrived a few days ago, Scavenger called me in." He answered in a low cautious voice. Skyleen looked at him, a little upset that he didn't trust her. But then again, who could blame the guy. Blurr's been through a lot in his life, he has a reason to be extra cautious.

"Where is Scavenger?" Skyleen asked noticing he was not with them.

"Red Alert, Smokescreen and him are back at the base with the kids. He was sleeping and we didn't think we'd need to wake him for only one life sign." Optimus answered.

"I don't think the guy's ever awake when we're at the base." Hotshot added. "Man I can't wait till Red Alert finds out you're still alive."

"It should put him into a better mood. He and Smokescreen have been blaming themselves on you getting captured. It hasn't been good. Rad's been upset too, mad that he took his eyes off you long enough for you to block them off. That was really brave, what you did to save them."

"We all think so." Jetfire agreed, "We were all devastated after seeing Megatron walk through the warp gate with your body." Skyleen could hear the anger inside Jetfire's voice as he said Megatrons name. Just the name of the Decepticon leader sent chills down Skyleen's back. She turned around and hugged Jetfire around the waste, digging her face into him.

"I don't ever want to go back." She said into his chest plate. Jetfire wrapped his arms around her and made circles on her back with his thumb.

"You wont, you're safe now." He lightly said to her.

"We'll make sure of that. No Decepticon will ever lay their hands on you again. I promise that." Prime said with certainty. A small snicker came from the air around them.

"Don't make a promise you can't keep Prime." Megatron said as he appeared out of the air, all the other Decepticons warped in behind him. Jetfire quickly let go of Skyleen and pushed the femme behind him while he got in a defensive stance, weapons at ready by his sides. Hotshot, Blurr and Optimus also stood ready to fight.

"Go away Megatron!" Optimus ordered.

"I'm not here to fight. Just come to claim back what's mine. He responded nodding towards Skyleen. "Come along now, we've had enough fun for one day don't you think?" Jetfire shifted his body to completely block Skyleen from the Decepticons sight.

"She's not going anywhere!" He growled.

"You willing to bet on that?" Megatron asked calmly. Demolisher stepped forward, ready to attack but was stopped by Megatron's arm. "Oh Skyleen," He called out in a sweet voice.

Skyleen shuttered behind Jetfire. She reached out and put a hand gently against his back for stability, then leaned her whole side against him, holding her hands up against her chest trying to ignore Megatron's call. Jetfire didn't even flinch.

"Megatron, leave now or we will fire!" Optimus said. Megatron acted as if Optimus never said a thing.

"If you know what's good for you Skyleen you'll come with me now." She closed her optics trying even harder not to hear him. Then suddenly she felt her body stiffen and stand strait up without her command. Jetfire felt the sudden movement and looked over his should at her with a little concern.

Being moved by some unknown force Skyleen took a step forward pushing past Jetfire who was eyeing her with caution. When she came into view her optics laid right on Megatron who was wearing a smile of satisfaction. No! She screamed in her head. Megatron was somehow controlling her. She tried to fight it but not even a finger moved. Finally she felt her body be released from the control and stumbled backwards.

"Skyleen!" Jetfire put his hands out and caught her before she hit the ground. "What just happened?" He asked. But she ignored him. She was still looking at Megatron who was snickering showing that he did control her.

"Like I said, you might want to come over here femme." Megatron said to her. Skyleen took a big breath in and took a step forward. Jetfire's hand flew out and grabbed her arm.

"What are you doing?" He asked in panic. "Don't go back, you're safe with us."

"I have no choice." Skyleen didn't even look him in the optics.

"Yes you do." Optimus said to her.

"You can stay here." Hotshot added.

"We can protect you." Blurr finished. Skyleen looked at Blurr, a bit surprised that he's willing to protect her. "I believe you." A small sad smile crossed her face.

"I must go." She tried to break out of Jetfire's grip. But he didn't even budge.

"I won't let you." He tightened his hand that was holding her.

"Please Jetfire." She pleaded, but his grip didn't change and she knew she had no chance of fighting him off. So instead she turned to him, taking her free hand and resting it against his chest plate.

Stepping up against him she put her other hand against him as he wrapped one arm around her waste and the other one he rested on the small of her back. Slowly she slid both her hands up his chest, up his neck and to the facemask that guarded him. Gently she unhooked and took off the mask and connected his lips to hers.

He was shocked at first as her gentle lips landed on the surface of his. But quickly he recovered and opened his mouth, allowing her to enter. It was a slow, gentle kiss but still had passion behind it. Jetfire pulled her against his body, his frame almost surrounding her tiny frame. He slid the hand on the small of her back up to between her shoulder plates and held her even closer. Their tongues twisted together as Skyleen slipped the hand with his mask over his shoulder while the other hand ran slowly down his arm that he had wrapped around her waist. When she reached his hand she took it off of her and twisted their fingers together while bringing it up closer to their shoulders. Bringing her hand with the mask forward again she broke their heads apart and then leaned back in to kiss him firmly on the lips.

"I'm sorry." She whispered. Then before he knew what had happened she slipped his facemask back in place and had twisted herself out of his arms. She was out of his reach when he realized what had just happened, dashing over to the Decepticons. All he could do was reach an arm out, as if she would come back.

"I wish you would kiss me like that." Megatron commented to her when she passed him. His expression scared her, hunger was in his optics.

When Skyleen turned back around to face the Autobots their expressions hurt her more than they could imagine. They looked defeated, betrayed. She was leaving, and they had no idea why. They didn't know that Megatron had just controlled her body.

As soon as she looked at Jetfire her eyes dropped to the ground as she hung her head low. What was going through his head right then she didn't want to know. She felt like traitor, he probably thought she just kissed him so that she could easily slip out of his arms. It was a little bit of that, but there was more to it. She really did have strong feelings for him, which is why she left. Incase Megatron took hold of her body and had her turn against the Autobots, her friends, her family.

Looking up she met Optimus in the optic. Skyleen tried as hard as she could to send a message to him through her facial expression just how sorry she was and how badly she didn't want to go back. If anyone would understand and get the message, it would be him.

"Megatron, if you hurt her I will make sure you die a painful death." Optimus threatened. Hatred in his eyes – Good, he got the message – Skyleen thought.

"Have fun with that Prime." Megatron seemed not the least bit worried. Then they all warped back to the Decepticon base, Skyleen with them.

"I will." A dark shadow crossed his face as he spoke in a low voice. A shadow more dangerous than any other look the Autobot leader has ever given. This was now personal, their number one priority now was to get back Skyleen.
