Author's Note: One more chapter to go! I have no idea if I'll keep going with Shadow's universe after Shades of Grey is finished (and there's one more one shot to go in The Difficult Decision with the other five) but if you guys want me to I can try to do something (though it will probably just be an everyday fic). Thanks to Exactlywhat, I am Blueberry, and Riptide2 for reviewing the last chapter! Enjoy and I own nothing but my OCs


Revenge-The Worst Mistake

"One bullet. You were right. I tip my hat to you...one legend to another"-Rattlesnake Jake, Rango

Jetfire and Ramjet collided with a crack that stunned everyone, even the drones. It seemed that Ramjet had made the worst mistake of his entire existence in attempting to kill Jetfire. With all optics on the violent air battles suddenly breaking out everywhere Jazz, Mirage, Crossfire, Barricade, Ground Hog, Motorhead, and Roller Force saw their chance and took it. Scalpel was besieged before he knew what hit him. The scientist was literally ripped limb from limb. He never stood a chance. Dreadwing crashed to the ground as well and Scorponok and Jazz, working as a team took down Lugnut. Misfire turned tail and ran. The Decepticons and Autobots left him, knowing that there was nothing he could ever do to threaten them.

Ramjet and Jetfire were locked in a death match. Jetfire was outclassed but furious. And he knew Ramjet's maneuvers inside and out. The other aerials, even the Autobots, left the two alone. Even though Skydive and Fireflight were just as incensed by their comrade's death they didn't have Jetfire's right to revenge. Instead the last two Autobot fliers worked on taking out Swindle while the others worked on the rapidly depleting amount of drones. Scourge was also engaged in a fight with Inferno, Ironhide, and Chromia. One that he wouldn't win.

Jetfire was injured and in pain. His spark throbbed at the loss of the twin he had only just been reunited with. His fury far outweighed his pain however. Caution kept him from death many times during the fight with the mech he had once adored and respected. Still he wasn't winning. That was when his com buzzed to life. He twitched and Ramjet got a shot into his side. ::Do you want us to distract him for a moment?:: Skydive asked.

::A chance to get in a good breath and aim would be appreciated:: Jetfire replied. He knew any of the others would have helped but he could feel the fury over the bond a knew that any one of them would also kill Ramjet in the process. That was why they hung back. This was one death that Jetfire needed to be responsible for.

::Can do:: Fireflight's still youthful voice said. They both dove Ramjet at once, causing the conehead to release Jetfire. The smaller Seeker backpedaled in the air and warmed up his gun, aiming directly at Ramjet's spark chamber. The two aerial Autobots darted out of the way and Ramjet focused dark red optics on Jetfire.

"You always were a useless, soft sparked coward," Ramjet said, glancing at the gun focused on his chassis and then back at Jetfire's face. "But this is low for even you."

"So be," Jetfire said coldly. And then he fired. The blast didn't miss. Ramjet went hurtling through the air to crash into the choppy waves and sunk deep under the water. They waited several minutes but he never resurfaced. Slowly the aerials landed and everyone put away their guns. The fight had been won but at what price?
