Coming across an area that looked like a possible quick description that she gave him, he spotted the random outcropping of trees, grassy field, mounds, and a stream. First landing in an area in which he spotted tire tracks, he transformed and instantly knelt down to scan it. It was Barricade's tread marks. Standing up he scanned around him when he noted the ped marks walking towards the little stream. Following the direction of the marks, he stopped where both of them were previously. Knelling down, he saw that Barricade went from standing, to knelling down by the way his peds were now bent and the impression of his knees were in the ground. TC wasn't a skilled tracker. He knew just the basics. But he did know how to read something as he looked across the little stream and on the other side was one of his taloned hand impression and another taloned digit that was in the ground a little. Running a more diverse scan of this small area the reading he received almost placed him on the ground himself. The only reason why he knew this particular reading was because he ran a scan of Remote after they made love in their place. He was curious. Wanting to know so much more of his little beauty.

Stepping back he had to cool himself. He had to locate her. Seeing that Barricade transformed again and took off, he was going to head off in that direction. But before he was about to, he had to figure out what to say to Megatron without saying this. "Well Megatron I've been sparked with her for some time now and she told me where basically she was. I came here and did some readings and found out that fragging monster spike sucker has been taking advantage of my spark mate. Anyhow he is off in this direction." In any case he had to recalibrate himself and call someone else.

"Prowl here!"

"Prowl are you alone or with any Decepticons?" Thundercracker inquired.

"I'm with Sideswipe, Kathy and Bob. Sunstreaker is off in some distance right now." Prowl replied.

"I don't know how many times I can do this without the possibility of getting caught, but Remote has been kept in the backseat of that fragger tied up and blindfolded. She has no idea where exactly she is at all because of that. I asked her if he has touched her, she told me no, but..." Closing his optics for a moment, he opened them. "He has been, Prowl. The bastard has been touching her."

Hearing his upset tone of voice, Prowl frowned at the news. Sideswipe, Kathy and Bob were able to listen into this as well, and while Sideswipe and Bob showed in their faces how unhappy they were it was Kathy flinging out a string of curses.

"She was able to send me one quick message before he made her stop. I sent you the location. I haven't reported this to, Megatron since... How do you report this? This wasn't the area I was supposed to be in and here I am. Not like I care until I get her back, but I don't want to be taken away without finding her." He envied humans right now at this time when he felt close to shedding tears of frustration. "It is bad enough Megatron painted me in a corner and asked if I experienced any of the local fauna in which I told him yes, but I didn't say who."

Kathy looked up at hearing the tone in his voice and with what he said. Wanting Bob to transform, she jumped into the front seat and went into Prowl's communication. "Thundercracker, please be calm. I can hear the worry and frustration. You need your head where it always is. That head will help you find my sister. I want you to take her away from that bastard and not get yourself hurt okay?"

He appreciated her words, he honestly did, he just wanted her now. "I want her back now."

"I know. We all do. TC I need to speak to you alone if I may."

"You have my permission there."

Prowl cut off his transmission with him. Kathy wasn't completely alone since Bob will hear this as well, but she didn't broadcast it like Prowl did for all their ears. "If he is doing more to her, Thundercracker, if she lied to you about it before then you know she did it to put you at ease. She is an unpleasant situation no one wants to be in. I was once in that situation myself. I was forced myself, then day after day someone would come and touch me and I found myself shutting down. Plotting in my head on how to leave. I had to endure the worst thing imaginable." Taking a long unsteady breath in she released it. "She won't be the same for a long time, TC. I know you don't blame her at all, but she is placing blame on herself. She is feeling dirty. She will feel betrayed by her own body even though her body is going through its own self defense mechanism to prevent lesser damage to it. She will have a long road to recovery after this."

Hearing her words, he was touched on how she seemed concerned about him as well. Of course none of this was her fault. He knew Kathy was once kidnapped and raped but the full details were a secret. If she went through all of that, and there she was bonded with Sideswipe who was one of the fiercer front liners next to his insane brother, and he had nothing but love for her. That he noticed readily long ago. "Don't worry, I will be there for her. I love your sister so much. I will do everything for her."

Smiling, a tear rolled down her cheek, she said softly. "Thundercracker I quite honestly know you do. I trust you. We should stop this communication before you are found out. We should see you soon. Bye for now and good luck." Pressing the button the line went dead. Leaning back into the seat she wiped the tears from her face. She was still wiping tears off her when the door opened and Sideswipe was bent down next to her.

Leaning towards her, Sideswipe gently pressed a digit across her cheek. "Let's get your sister back."


Being touched. Being made to do what she did with him. Just made her wish for her own death now. Her stomach was complaining now for food, but she didn't wish to say anything. She was blindfolded in the backseat again completely naked, as she felt the road beneath her as they rode. Death take her now. Please let me go. These thoughts were becoming more rampant. As much as she wanted her family and TC. She wanted death as much. Feeling something soft land on her, her hands started touching and it felt like her clothes. Seeing the top of his ceiling from having the removal of the blindfold. She blinked more then a few times and started placing her clothes on. She did see that his holoform instantly vanished. Looking out the windows as she dressed she noticed they were going to a motel that was possibly modeled after the Bates Motel, but without the looming house above.

"This is out of the way and you will have a room and a shower. There is a little restaurant down a way and I'll get you a change of clothes." Barricade informed her.

Now fully dressed he told her to slip into the front seat in which she did. Settling down, she said. "I can't eat a lot of food though. Never ate in a restaurant before because that would irritate my stomach."

"Then we will find a little store to go in and you can get what you need. I will be with you so don't scream or anything idiotic." He warned her. Pulling up near the office, he activated his holoform and quickly latched the seat belt over her tight. "I'll be back." Stepping out he strolled to the office.

His windows were pretty heavily tinted. There was a few people around especially some girls who eyed his holoform in open appreciation. Remote snickered at that. "Now if only you knew how much of a rapist asshole he is girls, then you would change your mind, even if he kills a friend of yours."

She knew from experience that he couldn't possibly hear. He might be able to feel her. She didn't care as she started to struggle in her seat. Moving her hand she squeaked a little from the pain as she reached his door handle and opened the door. Sliding the upper part of the belt over her head she started to snake out of her bond as fast as possible while looking towards the office. She knew his seat belt latch was locked in so this was her option. Snake out of the belt. Slipping out of her binding, she snuck out of him and went to the rear. The girls she spotted ogling him were already gone into that office. She presumed to hit on him or giggle at him some more. Examining her surroundings quickly she did her run in a stooped fashion towards a tiny grocery store. Getting far enough away, she ran very quickly inside and spotted the manager.

"Please I need to borrow your phone this is an emergency. I don't have money on me. Please." Feeling as if she was laying on the full Puss in Boots routine while almost getting on her knees, the gentleman nodded. "Do you have an office where I can call use it? I will repay you. I swear it." Nodding again, he indicated to follow him.

The store was larger in the inside then the outside, she noted, as she followed this quick man to the back and upstairs. Opening his office, he said to make herself comfortable. Thanking him, she ran to the phone and dialed the first number she can think of. "Kathy!" She called out in a whisper. She may be away from Barricade, but she didn't know for how long. "Oh my god I miss your voice."

"Remote! Where are you now? TC found the area you were in. He went back looking for you."

"Kathy I have no clue where I am, I'm looking around this desk to see a state name and city. I know I ducked into a Kettle Farms Grocery store." Seeing a packing slip, she read it out. "I'm in Canada?! Fuck he has been booking it. I'm in Churchill, Manitoba uh 43 Baker."

"Alright good I will tell the others immediately, in fact, Bob tell them that she is in Churchill, Manitoba Canada right now. She has gotten away from him." Turning back to Remote, she asked. "Has he touched you, Remote?"

"Yes."

"Thundercracker knows. He didn't get into it on how he knows regardless of what you told him, but he knows."

Sobbing she said. "I don't want him touching me. He hasn't had sex with me, he just touches me until I climax. It is hard to stop him because what if he snaps? What if he doesn't? Why can't my body stop responding to him? I want to die all the time right now, Kath. Can they take away your bond from you if they have sex with you when they are just holoforms?"

"I had that long discussion with you about my experience. It is hard to stop placing blame on yourself. But you need to. Why your body is responding, I figured is because your body is just trying to prevent a larger damage down there. It is easy to say you want to die, but you can't. You have to survive and beat him with that survival. He will get his punishment."

"I love you. Please tell everyone I love them." Remote felt pathetic, and she needed to say this. Bowing her head dead she continued crying as Kathy kept trying to give her words or encouragement. She was just soaking in this moment of hearing her voice before the line went dead. Looking up she spotted a very pissed off Barricade standing over her. Silently she put the phone down and stood up. Walking to him he placed a hand at the small of her back and guided her out. Seeing the manager approach her with a smile, she wondered if he heard any of her conversation. "Thank you for the use of your phone."

"You are most welcome. I see your friend is here to take you home. Please be safe and have a blessed day." He offered her with an unfaltering smile.

Feeling her stomach pinched, she tried to give him her best smile. "You have a blessed day as well."

Leading her down a bread aisle, he muttered to start picking some things over here. Not many bread items she ate so she just grabbed what she could take. Then leading her down another aisle full of refreshments, he picked up a few waters while she grabbed an apple juice. Him noting it was enough, guided her to the front of the store and paid for the items before heading out to his form which was now parked out front. Tell her in a gruff tone to get in he gave her a bread and her apple juice. Subspacing the rest, he went through the motions of being an actual human and climbed into the front seat to speed off.

Not saying anything for a half an hour she did eat a little and drank her drink. It wasn't cold but it felt good on her throat. His holoform already disappeared once they were gone, but his voice told her to get in the back seat and place the blindfold back on. Nodding her head, she climbed back there, placed the blindfold on, and laid down. At least her stomach wasn't grumbling, but it was uneasy.

He didn't say a word to her for the longest time. She didn't dare try to communicate with TC. She was happy to hear her sisters voice, but this ominous feeling she was getting from Barricade was weighing her down. Will he yell at her? Oh she hoped he wouldn't force her into having sex as punishment. The touches were bad, but that was a huge joining of two beings. Feeling a weight next to her, he didn't say not a word, but just flipped her over on her stomach. Not daring to say a word except to say "Ouch" when he decided to hog tie her and gag her. The weight disappearing from beside her, she started to weep as she felt him still speeding. After a while, in spite of the pain, she fell asleep.

When she woke up, she found herself on a bed in a semi darkened room tied up to the bed post and gagged. Examining her room it looked to be a motel room with the cheap furnishing and garish curtains and bedspread that was the same fabric as the curtains. Looking around it didn't appear he was in there so she started to test her bindings with little success. Taking a chance she raised TC.

"TC?"

"My love. I was told you called Kathy. I'm in Canada. I know you are no longer in that location anymore. Do you have a clue where you are?"

She heard his relief and the frantic rush in his voice as he spoke. She guessed he feared they will be cut off. "I don't have a clue where I am. He found me, took me outside after getting food, hog tied me, and drove. I fell asleep and I woke up tied up to a bed. He isn't here right now. I don't know where he is since I just woke up."

"Remote you were very brave in escaping. I know you are caught again and that is bad, but if you can do it once you can do it again and hopefully you will be away from him much longer." He told her in an encouraging way, but spoke softly with what he had to say next. "I know he has been touching you, Remote. When I went to that clearing I was at that stream and caught your... Well you know. I know it because when we made love at the house for the first time I scanned you. I wanted the biggest memory of our moment."

Weeping, she was surprised she still had tears left. "He keeps touching me over and over again. I don't know what he will do now because he is obviously very pissed. So here I am tied to a bed in a cheap ass dilapidated motel. My body keeps responding and I keep wanting to die. I still want to kill him, but the thoughts of my own death seem more welcoming."

"Sweetheart, hearing you say that makes me wish I can fly through our bond and get you out of there and hold you for days on end. You must survive because you are a surviver. I know you told me you aren't afraid of death, but I am, for you. I never ever want to lose you, even if one day you decide to say good bye to our relationship, I will still remain faithful to you in so many different ways because I love you so much. Him touching you, I blame him, he is the aft fragger. You, even if you have submitted to that touch a few times, I know it is for survival. I know you hate him."

"I do hate him. I want to kill him and make love to you. I love you so much, Thundercracker. I have always admired you."

"Cut. That. Communication. Off. Now!" Came Barricade's booming voice.

"He is angry at me. I love you. I gotta go." Cutting off the communication, she looked at him nervously. He stood at the foot of the bed, bag in one hand, and a full anger in his face. "I just needed to hear his voice."

Glaring daggers at her, his holoform disappeared from right in front of her. Outside she heard him transforming then stomping around angrily. Where ever they were it was obvious they were in a deserted area. Looking over at the bag she saw from the spilled contents it was clothing. Guess now she knew where he was. Hearing him transforming again and then the roar of his engine, she just waited it out until she saw his pissed off face again.

"Now time to do something about the clothes you are wearing now." Producing a knife he stripped her bare that way instead. Fully naked in front of him, his eyes just raked her body before he stood up and untied her bindings. Helping her up, he brought her into the bathroom. "The water is working so use the toilet and shower. This place seems to be a yearly rental place so that is why it is not occupied. As for the state of them, they are ugly ass rooms and this one was the best." He commented. "Do your duty and come back out."

Nodding her head, she quickly shut the door and did her business. Walking to the shower stall she noticed it was clean in there and there was a bar of soap in it and shampoo/conditioner in there already. Appreciating that at least, she jumped into the blessedly hot shower and washed herself. Stretching her body out and let the hot water pound her in different muscle areas felt good. Knowing he would come in to check on her, she turned off the water, and grabbed the towel to wipe herself. Wrapping another towel around her hair, she took a deep breath and walked out. Wearing just a towel around her body and hair she looked over at the clothes.

"Enjoy your shower?"

"Yes I did. I see you got me clothes. Thank you."

Still slightly glaring at her, he grumbled. "You're welcome. Now come stand in front of me."

Walking then standing right in front of him, he gently placed his hands on hers to have her release them to their sides, and after doing that he removed the towel from around her body and surprisingly laid it over the foot of the bed. Looking at her towel, he told her in a gentle tone to remove that as well. Removing the towel there her hair tumbled down freely over her shoulders, down her back and a little over her breasts. Eyeing the area where the hair was at her breasts, he moved the hair aside and claimed her right breast with his mouth. His hands moved softly down her body, when he reached her hips he moved her closer to his now naked body. Closing her eyes she felt like she was about to faint.

Taking glances at his little prize, he enjoyed touching her silky skin, and suckling her breasts. He was still angry and hurt she left. Oh he wasn't surprised she took a chance, but he still felt pissed and hurt. Moving to her other breast he cupped her other with his hand and just teased. Hearing the first tiny moan made him almost put himself in her but he restrained himself. "Suck me." He ordered in a soft tone as he kissed below her breasts.

"Please no." She begged.

"Suck it or I'll make you. You want that?"

"No." She whimpered.

Looking down, she used his knees to steady herself to go down on her knees. Staring at his member she had to picture it was TC's. She had to or else she would gag and he might harm her. Kissing the base of his member elicited a tiny note of encouragement. Running her tongue up his length she teased around the head before moving up to his slit and ran her tongue there softly tasting him. Teasing him with her tongue and only put a tiny bit in her mouth was making him moan.

"You are so perfect." He mentioned with his head back. "I wish you were doing this with my real spike."

Placing it inside her mouth, she ran her head up and down on it, and then placing the entire length inside her mouth she ran her tongue along him making him spiral. Using her hand to help her out she kept moving up and down occasionally to stop to tease him. He was moaning so much it was nuts to know you had so much power in such an act. The more she kept doing this she noticed how she was getting wet. Yes she thought of TC as she was doing this, but she still knew she was with him.

Crying out that he was climaxing, he was okay with her removing her head away from him while he came into his hand. Looking at her as he was squeezing his member, he told her. "I won't have you swallow me in case that makes you sick." It was so gentle the way he said it, but him grabbing her and placing on the bed didn't feel like it. Moving on top of her, he placed himself on top and kissed her nose while playing with her wet hair. "I really am in love with you, Remote. I wish I never did all I did before because I think you would of given me a chance." Kissing her chin he moved his lips down her neck.

Remote closed her eyes as she felt his kisses upon her. She also knew his penis was very close to penetrating her. "I don't want to have sex. Please don't force me there."

"I won't, my love, but I need to feel one little thing." Moving up a little he positioned himself so he can place his hand on his cock and started to rub it against her. "I will rub you out with this. Frag you are wet."

Feeling the teasing of him rubbing there she either twitched or moaned. When he asked her how it felt, she responded with an involuntary. "Good."

Rubbing her, he felt like putting it more inside of her. He wanted her to feel him. Scanning her lovely face he loved the smile that formed. She did love this. Feeling encouraged. he moved up but kept moving his hips so he can still rub. Capturing her breast in his mouth he started teasing there and his prize was her hand in his hair, just running her fingers through the tendrils. Smiling internally he kept this up until he felt the sweet sound of her climaxing. "I love you." He said softly as he moved off her. Her eyes staring at him, her chest now calm from all the heavy breathing, she looked even more achingly beautiful. "Stand up for me."

Doing so she got up very unsteadily and was caught by him. Finding her strength, she stood up and just waited. He took her hand and guided her outside. The air was warm thankfully but she felt odd walking around naked. Lifting her up in his arms, he walked her over to his form and laid her down on a lounge chair conveniently in front of him. Watching him disappear, then him transforming, he loomed over her. His eyes actually appeared gentle. His taloned digit as it moved along her body didn't. Ever. Seeing him stand he released his spike and moved it towards her. Wide eyed she touched it tentatively. Seeing him nod, she kissed it and the vibrations from his body was intense. Moving a taloned claw between her legs he made a tiny vibration sending her into another orgasm while her touches on his spike sent him to over load. At least he didn't aim it at her. When he was done, he remarked on how much he loved her. For Remote, that sentiment will never be returned.
