Chapter 12 The Battle(part1)

Charity was in America now, she checked her GPS, and found that Optimus Prime and the other three Autobots were still on their way to Los Angeles, and Ratchet still had a long way to go. Thinking about Voldemort, she decided to join Optimus. So she apparated into the red and blue truck, and sat on the driver seat.

Optimus was apparently startled, but he realized what was going on soon.

"Why do you come here? I don't think you have ever joined a war before, nor have you taken appropriate train…"

"That's nothing to worry about. I think I've already have a gross knowledge about Decepticons, and I can at least protect me well. And I might be able to help you."

Optimus tried to throw her out like what Ratchet had done, but he also failed, because Charity was on the driving seat again.

"All right then, but take care of yourself."

They were about to reach Los Angeles, when some Decepticons appeared and started attacking. Charity told Optimus not to worry about her, and cast a Disillusionment Charm on herself. She looked after Optimus as he transformed and fought with a Decepticon as big as him, and decided to keep an eye on Sam and the other people. She summoned her broomstick and circled in the sky like a hawk, ready to deal with anything about to happen.

But Autobots did a great job, Charity was glad to find that Optimus finished his opponent and a Decepticon tried to get the Cube was finished by an Autobot called Ironhide.

And now, they had reached the city.

Charity saw a yellow Hummer 2 rushing towards. That was Ratchet. Charity found it unbelievable that Voldemort was not in the car, and Ratchet told her honestly that he had sent him free, since Voldemort was not a member from military force…

But now, there was no time for Charity to panic, because more Decepticons had come. Charity added some protective charms to the Autobots, hoping they can be effective, and ran to join Sam and Mikaela.

"F-22 at 12 o'clock. All right."

"Air Force has arrived!" The soldiers were shouting happily.

But Ironhide soon shouted, "It's Starscream!" He and Bumblebee picked up a truck to take cover. But the attacking from that Starscream was too fierce, and Charity found that Bumblebee had lost both of his legs. How she wished she could heal him, but robots were so different from human that Charity was unsure if a Healing Charm would work. She looked for Ratchet, but he was busy dealing a tank with Jazz.

On the ground, panicky crowd were fleeing everywhere. Charity wanted to cast a Muggle Repelling Charm, but if so, the soldiers fighting would also be effected. "They were right then, I couldn't do anything to help." thought Charity gloomily.

Suddenly, Ratchet shouted, "It's Megatron. Retreat! Fall back!" Charity's heart sank-the arrival of Voldemort's twin brother (quoted from Ratchet).

She looked up in the sky, and found a strange aircraft flying low. The Autobot Jazz was very brave and he even jumped onto Megatron to attack.

"You might kill yourself!" Charity said agitatedly.

Then a soldier came over, and shouted to her, "You! Dangerous, leave here now!" Charity did move as told. Only, she dazed towards Jazz and Megatron. "Hey, you crazy woman!" Ignoring the shout, she continued running, because Jazz was now lifted by Megatron to the roof of a building and he was about to be torn. She wouldn't conceal anymore, and that anti-Muggle security should be totally dismissed at this very time! She Disapparated.

Her appearance on the chest of Jazz must have shocked Megatron. Charity was in choler. She screamed, "Go to see Merlin, you damn troll! Diffindo!"

But the effect was too little, only a few metal chips flew away. What was worse, her action had enraged Megatron. Jazz shouted to her, "Run away! Don't be stupid…"

"Noooooo! Stupefy! Petrificus totalus! Relashio! Incendio!"

The last one made sense, Megatron was startled by the fire appeared so suddenly. Jazz took the chance and slipped down the high building with Charity.

"Thanks, you are a great fighter!" Before Charity could explain, the robot Gryffindor had joined the battle again.

After Charity held herself, she found that the boy called Sam was running to a white building with statues on it, and Megatron was chasing after him. Megatron tore down every part of the building he could reach. He was a destroyer, a more fatal destroyer than Voldemort. To Charity's relief, Optimus was driving in this direction. And she decided to help the other Autobots.

Bumblebee did a good job. Although both legs were broken, he was sitting on a truck driven by Mikaela, and shooting to Decepticons around. So, she joined her old friend, Ratchet. And they defeated three Depeticons that were newly appeared. A Freezing Charm was really effective.

"Good job, witch!"

"So did you, Ratch!"

Charity looked back to the white building, and found that Sam had jumped from it because of Megatron. Thanks to Optimus, Sam was grabbed in the middle air just in time. But before they landed, Megatron landed on his back, attacked, and the two giant robots fell down together. Optimus landed on his back, and Megatron landed only a few yards aways from them. Sam seemed unharmed.

"Sam? You risked your life to protect the Cube."

"No sacrifice, no victory."

Staring at Sam, Optimus made his choice. They had failed in protecting the Cube. This war had to end. "If I cannot defeat Megatron, you must push the Cube into my chest. I will sacrifice myself to destroy it. Get behind me."

When Sam was away, Optimus turned to Megatron, "It's you and me, Megatron."

"No, it's just me, Prime."

"At the end of this day, one shall stand, one shall fall."

"You still fight for the weak! That is why you lose!"


The battle is continuing! HAHAHAHA! Failing to describe the battle scene in a detailed way, and I fail even in my mother tongue, anyway, I got difficulties on my composition from junior high to senior high...(sigh~)
