Chapter 37.

As she watched the Xanthium rocket off, Alexx saw something in the corner of her eye and when she looked her eyes went wide. Starscream flew towards the ship at a terrifying speed and her mouth dropped open as the Decepticons second in command blew the ship up right before her eyes. Hazel orbs filled with water and she realised that she was numb, she was so numb that she was sure she couldn't even feel the pain of having her mates killed. No noise left her mouth as the tears began to roll down her face and her body began to shake. Soon though, the anguish began to turn to anger and her mouth closed her teeth beginning to grind together and her body began shaking much more violently.

She stood from her position and walked down the road, shoving out of the way anybody who tried to stop her, including Director Mearing.

"Get the fuck out of my way you pompous bitch" she hissed.

she quickly made her way over to Sam and grabbed him by his shirt, lifting him up high above her head and watching him squirm.

"What do you know boy?" She asked.

Sam started to splutter and she put him down, pulling her fist back and threatening to punch him.

"I said...what do you know!" She demanded.

Sam told her everything he knew, now that the Decepticon bug was off his wrist, he began to spill everything and he watched as this only made Alexx more and more angry. She saw the bug slithering away and dropped Sam, hurrying over to capture it, which caused it to squeal.

"Hello there Dylan, enjoy the little show did you? Well guess what, it's not over. In fact, this is just an intermission, the next act will be with your head on a golden platter on my wall. Do you understand me? You, Clive and everyone involved with the Anti Shifter Terrorist Squad, will all perish by my hand. I will becomes hat you want me to be Dylan, I will become thee monster you believe me to be and I will piss on your rotting corpse with the greatest pleasure" she said.

She then crushed the little Decepticon in her hand, not caring that it's jagged edges cut into her palm. She then turned towards Mearing and snarled when the woman went to say something.

"You say anything bitch and I'll rip your tongue out. Optimus and the others are't here to stop me now and I'm pissed" she said.

Turning around, she shifted right in front of everyone, earning gasps all around and she ran off in the direction she was sure the ASTS Chicago base was.

Dylan was in Clive's office playing him what Alexx had said into the little Decepticon bug. And it was safe to say that Clive was shit scared.

"You, Clive and everyone involved with the Anti Shifter Terrorist Squad, will all perish by my hand. I will becomes hat you want me to be Dylan, I will become the monster you believe me to be and I will piss on your rotting corpse with the greatest pleasure" Alexx's voice said.

Clive swallowed and once again dabbed at his head with his hankie. He didn't like the sound of that and with the way she'd already killed his other abomination and now she was threatening...no she was promising a painful death for everyone with the ASTS. He looked at Dylan and whimpered.

"She's already killed Raj Gau" he said.

Dylan looked at him and scoffed.

"She can't harm you, not with me and the Decepticons protecting you" he said.

Clive glared at him.

"Dylan, she killed Raj Gau right in front of me, just ripped his throat out as if she were taking a bite out of an apple" he said.

The younger and thinner man just gave him a look.

"She's strong, but she can't take the Decepticons on on her own. Not with those mates of hers gone" he said.

Clive scoffed.

"Dylan, I've been around these freaks all my life, enough to know that you should never underestimate them, any one of them" he said.

The other man just smiled.

"I guarantee she won't hurt you" he said.

He then walked out of the room and made his way towards Soundwave.

"We need to put a couple of guards on this base. There's an unfriendly on her way" he said.

Soundwave's holoform nodded and they drove off.

She hurried towards the Chicago base, stopping when she saw the two Decepticons standing guard outside. She didn't recognise them, they must've come through the space bridge that Sentinel set up. As she was about to attempt to sneak in, she heard a low growl and turned to see a tigress getting ready to pounce. Shifting back into her human form she looked over the tigress, knowing that it wasn't a wild one, then she shifted into her own tigress form, a majestic white Bengal tigress.

The other tigress then ran towards her, the intent was clear and she didn't take it laying down. She fought with the other tigress, the din was astonishing and enough to draw the Decepticons from their perch. Looking over the two tigers, they didn't know which one was the bogey, considering going they weren't told about any other Shifters. They watched the fight, intrigued and jeering when the White one gained an advantage over the Orange one.

Soon, the White tiger grabbed the Orange tiger's neck and twisted. A definite crack was heard and the Orange tiger fell to the ground dead. It then shifted into an older woman and the White tiger turned towards the Decepticons, who clapped their hands and moved out of the way. The White tiger stalked past them and by the time they realised that she was the one they needed to watch out for, it was two late. The two shifter guards inside were dead and she was on her way to Clive's office.
