"Try to keep your head still." Michael was holding his rubber gloved hands on the sides of a teenaged boy's head, holding it still incase his neck was broke. Blood was trickling down the back of his neck from his head wound, "Do you feel any pain?"

"I can't feel anything at all." The teen's voice was filled with fear as he tried to hold his head still, "I'm not going to die, am I, sir?"

"No, your not. You're ok."

Ratchet appeared behind the two and Angel jumped out. She had to push through a few of the witnesses to get to them. Her eyes took in thedark colored truck that was upside down not to far from the boy, "What happened?"

"He swerved to miss a deer and flipped his truck. He crawled out through the passagers side."

"He crawled out of that?" The truck was completely crushed on the hill, the windows couldn't even be seen. She shrugged and kneeled down as Ratchet turned on one of his spot lights. The bot remembered this kid from before, quite well. The boy shifted his eyes to the woman in front of him, she could tell he was terrified and confused, "What's your name, sweetie?"

"Trent."

Her blue eyes turned at hearing the sirens coming closer. His voice made her turn her attention back to him, "My mom is going to kill me."

"Aw, no. She'll understand, honey. Don't worry." She backed up some as the neck brace was put around his neck, gently. More firefighters checked around the truck, making sure there were no other victims.

"I'm...scared."

"It's ok, God will take care of you. So will we, everything will be just fine."

His expression changed to a more calm one as he took in her words, "Thank you."

"No need to thank me, Trent."

"W-what's your name, ma'am?"

"Angel. Everyone calls me Angel."

"I can see why."

One of the EMT's bent down beside Angel, "Do you think you can stand?"

"Yes sir, I can walk..just as long as someone helps me."

He was helped up and led to the ambulance and Angel looked over at Michael, "He was polite..."

"He usually isn't to certain people."

"How do you know?"

"Heconfessed quite a few thingswhen he thought he was goin to bleed to death, before you got here. Told me if he lived, he was goin to change his ways."

The ambulance drove off, leaving the rest of them. Angel went back to Ratchet, after looking over some papers. and leaned against the door, "My head is starting to hurt again..."

"You should take a break."

"No way! I'm alright! I just got this weird feeling, is all."

"If you say so."

Angel shifted her position in leaning on thhe door. She moved to her side and looked around at the scene. Michael and some of the other firefighters were talking to the witnesses, some others were walking around the truck, and another cop car was driving up next to the wrecked vehicle when-

Wait, that cop car...

"Angel...get in, now!"

She did as she was told, calmly, acting as if she didn't notice anything. She pulled the seatbelt around her, trying to avoid looking at the cop car. They sat a few minutes then turned around and drove off slowly. They needed to lead them away from the small crowd of people, Angel didn't want Shelly hurting anybody else. In the silence of the car, Angel calls softly, "Hey, Ratchet?"

He replies, "Yes?"

She was silent for another moment, "I don't want to lose you..."

He couldn't help but chuckle, he assured her, "You won't, I'll be fine."

She continued, "But what if this time you get hurt and I never get to see you again?"

At that his hologram form came out sitting beside her with a very serious look on his face, "You won't lose me." He said softly but with a small force, "I promise you."

She was almost crying as she gazed at him. Her voice was quiet, "Really?"

He leaned over, his lips close to hers as he murmured, "Really." With that he kissed her softly, sealing the promise.

Behind them, Shelly was having a similar conversation. Frenzy was twitching anxiously in the seat beside her, looking back and forth from the hummer in front of them then back to Shelly. She wasn't paying any attention to him, she was caught up in a conversation with Barricade, "I don't see why you have to go into battle like this, so stupid having to go out here and get yourself injured! I just want that human gone."

Barricade, brought to her attention, "In order for you to kill her, somebody has to distract Ratchet."

She demanded, "Why must it be you, though. Why can't it be someone more disposable?" She gives the fidgeting Frenzy a brief and venomous look. Upon catching her death glare, Frenzy yelped and jumped into the backseat. Barricade, on the other hand, gave an exasperating sigh, "The others are to incompetent. I have to fight. Besides," He paused, "if I weren't fighting, who'd look after you?"

At that, she ducked her head refusing to let his inner cameras catch the spots of rusty color that had risen in her cheeks. She mumbled, "I can take care of myself."

She turned at sudden movement in the passager seat, "You sure about that?"

Beside her was a pale, red eyed human hologram with beautiful black hair, short, shaved in the back,with long spikey bangs over his eyes reaching his chin in the front. She glares stubbornly at him, snapping, "Yes! I'm sure!"

From him, this draws forth a chuckle, "Woman, you are to stubborn at times."

He reaches over, grabs the back of her head, and forcably kisses her. As they kissed she felt his tongue press forcibly, his cold stud pierced in his tongue sent chills down her spin,against her lips demanding entrance. She didn't refuse him as she moaned into his mouth, letting him explore as he wished. In the back seat, Frenzy called with a slight groan, spitting out words in Cybertronian translating to, "Get a room!"

Slowly Barricade disconnected from his love, pausing a moment before he turned resting his merciless gaze on Frenzy in a light dangerous tone he asked, "Do you have a problem, Frenzy? We wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable now, would we?" in an overly sarcastic tone. Frenzy more or less gulped and babbled in Cybertron language, "Ugh, well...um...I-I didn't mean anything by it, erm..." The small droid shrank back into the seat as Barricade's piercing eyes watched him with a cold blooded thurst. He turned back to Shelly, "Let's just kill these bitches."

Angel jumped as she heard the loud thud against the top of the hummer. She reached down and grabbed her axe then jumped out, Ratchet transformed behind her. They were attacked before they could speak a word.
