Harlo. Here is the LAST CHAPTTTER OF THE STORYYY.

Oh my goshhh. Can't believe it's over now. I'm soooo sad but then excited as well. Oh by the way check out the chapter-ly quote. I wrote it but then it's kinda amateur... Oh well.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for Kina, Chantal Price (finally mentioning her again). I can finally say the lyrics belong to me!

Before you fall down,
Can you see the stars?
Before your eyes close,
Can you see the light?

-Before (ME!)

"Where are you going?" She asked impatiently and suspciously. She couldn't leave yet, he couldn't go yet, she wanted to find Chantal Price. Optimus' sparkmate. She needed to find her.

"None of your fragging business. Stay the pit out of it," Megatron snarled at her.

"I know you're going for them. The autobots," she said, surprisingly calm, standing there. Megatron looked back from his shoulder and gave her a little smirk.

"10 points for the smart little femme. No, I'm going for the Decepticons," he said, laughing as the rest of the team laughed with him. Barricade looked at me, giving her the look that said, 'told you shouldn't have trust them. And now you know what little bitches we can be.' No seriously, Kina thought to herself sarcastically.

"What the fuck. You swore you wouldn't harm them! You said you were a mech of your word, fucking crap metal!" She screamed, her alluring features twisting.

Megatron's eyes glowed red from what she called him. He stomped towards her and got in her face. He sneered. "You don't know how much I want to rip that pretty face of your right now. And when a quotation mark mech of his word quotation mark tells you he is a mech of his word, you just believe them. Right, that's just so slagging intelligent. Thought you were smarter than that, Katherina."

"Huh, believe me I do know how much you want to do that because it equals to how much I want to rip that useless-piece-of-crap spark out of your fragging chambers this instant!" She yelled at him.

"Katherina Hart. Just because I won't kill you does not mean I will not torture you until you wish you died," he hissed. "Barricade!"

"Is that what you did to Chantal Price?" She yelled at him.

Megatron turned to her, full of fury. "Shut up if you know nothing, fleshbag," he answered.

Barricade looked at me.

"Just so you know, he's ruthless. Yes, even by Decepticon standards."

Yes, I happen to know that, she thought as she looked back at Barricade. Before she could even say anything, she was sprawled across the floor in the other side of the room. She couldn't stop herself from screaming out from the pain.

"Remember to bring her to where we'll meet. She'll watch every one of her precious Autobot die on the field. Her little Bumblebee will die very slowly and painfully," he laughed evilly and exited the room, still laughing a great distance away.

"Barricade..."

She was cut off by her own scream as he picked her up and threw her across the room.

"Stop frigging throwing me across the room!"

Well, she thought she said it. She guessed she was too in pain and dazed to actually say anything right now. "I told you not to be stupid and do stupid things with Megatron, you idiotic fleshbag!" Barricade roared. She winced away from the loud noise and when he snatched her in his hand, she closed her eyes and looked away.

"I know you're not that bad. Come on, Barricade. Don't you rememb-" She was again cut off by him throwing her down on the ground. Frick! she thought. So much for trying to play the regret/guilt card with Barricade. You should have known he didn't fall for that, shouldn't you? But... I think I might have actually meant it when those words left my mouth. I mean, I wasn't planning it but it just... slipped ou-

She screamed again as he kicked her, letting her skid across the room (yes, again =p).

"I'm not that bad? I'm crueller than Mega-bloody-tron you foolish human! He was forced to watch me torture his precious Chantal!" He shouted, one of his talons from his arms slashing against her, slicing open her shirt and opening a gash on her stomach. She screamed again. Chantal...? Maybe she wasn't... what...?

She didn't usually scream. But she already did at least thrice, if not more.

Her hand clutched the bleeding wound and she backed away from him, truly believing that the mech standing in front of her was evil. Yes, Barricade. We all know you're evil now. Please stop proving the point! She thought.

Talons wrapped around her arms, lifting her up and slamming her against the wall. The sharpness almost ripped her arm in shreds if Barricade was not going easy on her and hiding some of the talons. Yes, believe it or not Barricade was going easy on her. "You will never learn, will you Katherina Hart?" He withdrew his talons and she dropped to the floor. She took a deep gasp and looked at him.

"Bastard. I helped you once."

"I never needed your help, femme," he replied icily, grabbing her and throwing water over her to clean the wounds.

"Who fucking cleans wounds like that?" She demanded.

"Shut the frag up!" He snarled at her, throwing her a towel and letting her wipe herself dry.

"Shit, the fragging wounds are healing..." she whispered, looking at her arm. Barricade narrowed his eyes and threw her in his front seat.

"I can't let them all die, I just can't..." She muttered to herself all the way while driving there. Barricade growled and tightened the seatbelts just to warn her to shut up.

"Fine, fine! Your friends aren't dying this second! You don't even have friends slaggit!" She screamed at Barricade.

"Do you want me to torture you some more, or do you want to shut up instead?" He hissed at her through the radio. She glared out the window and the seatbelts loosened up a little bit. As they gor closer and closer, she started to feel more and more scared. She was scared of what she might find there. She kept making up questions and what ifs.

What if Bumblebee is dead? What if I die? What if Megatron and the 'cons win? What would Optimus do?

She shut her brain off temporarily and so she didn't notice when they reached there.

Barricade screeched to a stop and threw Kina out.

"Barricade!" She yelled. He didn't have time to talk to her about throwing her out. So maybe he does care about her a little, but not enough to risk his life for her or anything.

Everything was in chaos, he simply didn't have the time. The soldiers shot Barricade. Kina tried to help, but how? She really wanted to know. Then came the deadly shot that was fatal. To Barricade. He fell to the floor. He was near offline. One of the soldiers shot at Kina, mistaking her- or believing her to be with the Decepticons. They got her arm. She cried out in pain.

Barricade reached towards her, wanting to comfort her. He'd lost all senses already, he'd forgotten to not show his feelings anymore. He's reached out to his spark and finally got that he had a care for Kina. Ever since she healed him when Starscream shocked him. Ever since then he had grown fond of her, as a friendly sort of way.

She reached for him too.

And at the other side, Bumblebee and the others watched. They watched them. Bee's spark was torn at her being shot. Him seeing her hurt was the worst possible thing ever.

"Barricade!" She screamed desperately. "No! Don't die on me, please!"

Barricade looked at her and wondered why she would think anything like this. All he had ever done was hurt her, bring her to hell. He remembered what he did to her just hours ago. Torturing her. Badly. It shamed him a little bit now. And then her leg got shot. She screamed again. When she finally reached Barricade, she put both her hands on him. His hand covered hers. His holoform flickered and appeared next to her, holding her.

"You can't do this... you can't die on me..." She sobbed. She felt herself trying to summon energy.

"And you can't use your life energy on me. I'm dying," Barricade returned. He didn't notice, but now that she was still. They fired another shot. One shot that went through near her heart. She cried out in pain again. She tried the energy thing again, and felt warmth leave her body and into Barricade's. His holoform became more solid, and she knew she did it.

She didn't want to die yet... she wanted to... see Chantal and tease her for falling for a cybertronian. And she wanted to warn her not to do anything to Optimus or she'll kill him.

Across the street, Bee screamed. He screamed at the feeling in his spark. "Katherina!"

She looked over at Bee. She smiled at him bitterly. He walked over to her and knelt down near her. "Bee... Bee I'm sorry this had to happen. I never meant for it to. I love you and I will forever until my last breath. Bee I regret not changing for you. I'm sorry I never changed for you. I love you. Tell Optimus won't you, that... Barricade is okay. Tell him to take him in. And that... I still love him as a brother. Tell Jazz that he's the best mate ever and Ironhide and Ratchet thanks. Tell Brains and Wheelie I forgive them, okay? Even if I don't want to..."

"I love you," Bee returned.

She turned to Barricade. "Don't. Just... you don't want to be a 'con, I know it. Okay, maybe you are really cruel but... still. So just be with the autobots. Or be a neutral. It doesn't matter. Don't go back to Megatron. I didn't revive you for that."

She took her last breath, smiled at Bee and mouthed 'I love you' again.

Her form went limp.

"You killed the wrong person, you fraggin' humans!" Bee bellowed. Ratchet ran forwards to Kina's body.

"I can't save her. Even if I could close the gunshot wound. She has wounds all over, she was already losing too much blood, and they aren't from the guns. What the frag? Where the frag did those wounds come from? She used too much energy to revive Barricade. It drained her life."

I subsequently killed her, Barricade thought. Now he was more awake, he lost the feelings he did when he was half-dead. But it really didn't erase much guilt on killing Katherina Hart. It was just a part of him that would never leave him forever.

Bee looked at Barricade. "If anyone kills Barricade I swear I'll kill them. She used her life on him and if he dies then she dies again."

"Bee, they thought she was with the Decepticons. You yourself said she was," Optimus said.

"She wasn't. She went with them that day as a bargain. Barricade was going to kill me. And she said if she went with them, they'd have to spare me. She told me to tell the lie so I don't get blamed."

They went quiet.

"She used the Allspark shard to bargain for you mechs. So you wouldn't be harmed. But like Megatron, he doesn't keep his promises," Barricade informed them. He felt like he needed to say something, to let them know that, because they were close with Katherina.

"So basically, she just wanted to save our afts," Ironhide said.

Bee nodded, and cried over Kina.

"She said that she loved you like a brother. Thank Jazz for being a good mate. And all you mechs for... something, I guess. She forgave Wheelie and Brains for whatever the slag they did and...

"That you have to take Barricade in," Bee finished, wiping off his tears.

But they got no chance, Barricade was walking away. He was going away with the Decepticons.

"Fragger," Ratchet and Ironhide mumbled under their breath.

"Bee, Optimus, Jazz. I need to tell you something."

All of the autobots turned to Ratchet attentively. He looked at them seriously. He took a deep breath and opened his mouth. "When I scanned her... Katherina Hart was pregnant."

Bee paled. "Who...? Not the 'cons...?" He whispered.

"She was yours. The half human half cybertronian hatchling was yours, Bee."

"Is it...?" Optimus asked calmly.

"It's died along with Kina, I'm sorry Bee." With that, Bee fell to the floor again. Ironhide put a hand on the young scout.

Optimus took Kina in his hands. How could he explain this to Sideswipe? The two of them shared a twin bond. Primus have mercy that Sideswipe wouldn't try to kill himself.

"Rest in peace, Katherina Hart."

Sad ending...

She really is dead. Not sleeping and will not be returning to life. Well... probably never, from the perspective of the tie-in I'm working on.
