HHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII...yeah i do that a lot.

WARNING- Tragic love story/chapter thingy...i don't know.

Brotherhood.

Chapter 24.

Lost in the dark.

Where am I?

Who am I?

What's going on?

Pain was she felt, the pain of loneliness and the lost of something she held so dear. Her spark broke as her soul shattered of that she searched endlessly for. Clutching her aching chest, her optics searching the dark for something to guide her.

Out of the darkness, out of the pain.

Out of the loneliness she was lost in.

Anuta.

Sideswipe clung to Sunstreaker as he clutched his chest in pain, the same stabbing feeling shooting through the red twin. Sunstreaker looked up at his twin; Sideswipe nodded and connected is CPU to the only Mech that could help.

What the Frag do you want Autoscum.

Skywarp, I uh kinda need your help. Something's wrong with Starfire and it's affecting me and Sunny. We need you to get us back to the Autobot base.

I'm on my way.

Sideswipe grinned, when it came down to Starfire the Seeker's weren't that bad. Sure they're Decepticon's but they had a good spark when it came down to their little sister. Minute's later Sunstreaker sub spaced his gun and targeted the warping jet.

"Sunny he's the only one who can get us back okay, you gotta trust me." Sideswipe told him.

Sunstreaker glared at the black and purple jet before holstering his gun, standing up straight he walked over to the Decepticon Starfire called her brother. Skywarp smiled slightly at the yellow twin stepping back and guarding himself when Sunstreaker held out his hand.

"As much as i hate you, get me back to that base"

Autobot base.

Everyone watched as Ratchet rushed over the injured Jet, turning her onto her back. Ratchet growled at the sight before closing his optics he pulled out a revolver and shot the silver jet that zoomed above them, hitting it dead on in the centre.

"That's one heck of shot." Ironhide growled. "Even my canons can't do that."

"That's because your body cannot withstand the power that comes from it." Ratchet growled.

"Can you fix her?" Prowl asked."Her spark is fading, her armour is shattered and her main energon lines are ruptured. It's repairable, but her Spark should not be fading the damage has done nothing to attack it her spark is to heavily protected." Ratchet explained.

"We need to get her inside." Prime instructed.

Before anyone could do anything Ironhide charged his canons and pointed them at the spot Skywarp had just appeared with a set of twins. Before either Twins could do anything Ratchet darted past them with Starfire in his hands. Sunstreaker shrank under the gaze of everyone's optics on him.

The abyss.

Why is it so dark?

Can anybody hear me?

Is anybody there?

Please help me.

Forgive me.

I don't want to be alone.

Tears racked her body as the cold swept in, the pain of a lost love, the pain of a broken family. The pain of all that went on around her, the loss of a home, a love, a family.

Forgive me.

Autobot base.

Sunstreaker glared back at the Decepticon air commander, the two seekers shrank behind their older brother. Sideswipe folded his arms behind his brother; silently threatening the seeker's if they tried anything.

Meanwhile in the Medical bay Ratchet worked ferociously on keeping Starfire online, but something wasn't letting him. From what the CMO could figure out Starfire didn't want to come back, and he knew why. The alarms went off and Ratchet forced the jet to come back online, but to his sadness her systems wouldn't start up. After minutes of trying Ratchet finally let her go and headed out into the waiting room to give the bad news.

The other's looked up as Ratchet walked through the doors, leaning against the frame as he looked up into the optics of those he had worked alongside with. Shaking his head, Ratchet sighed again and moved away from the door allowing them to see the fallen form of their air commander.

"I couldn't save her."

Starscream sank to his knee's as the word's sank in, Sideswipe pushed past his silent brother and into the ward. Skywarp and Thundercracker lunged at the silent twin, Ironhide and Jazz grabbed them. Optimus and Prowl walked into the ward and watched the red twin carefully; Sideswipe leaned down against the Jet.

"Starfire you got to come back, Sunny will forgive you. Please i'll talk to him...please." Sideswipe pleaded.

"She's not coming back Sideswipe." Optimus told him.

"She got to prime." Sideswipe looked up at his superior. "She's just got too."

Three days later.

No one had worked or done anything since the death of Starfire, Ratchet had finally pegged it down to a broken spark. Sideswipe had stayed with her until her funeral came and the three Seeker's had took the liberty of destroying all of the remaining Decepticon's. Sunstreaker on the other hand no one had heard or seen ever since her death, Cliff Jumper had made random snide comments about the yellow Mech. Finally giving in Ironhide did the very thing everyone had been dying to do.

He blew apart Cliff Jumper.

His funeral wasn't one they could be bothered with, after the final preparations for her funeral Ratchet had finally cleared her body for the coffin. Sideswipe decided that now may be the best time to try and get Sunstreaker to come to it, after knocking on the door for about a dozen times the door finally opened.

"Sunny come on. You gotta..."

At the sight of his brother Sideswipe didn't press anymore, his armour had lost its sheen and his optic's were barely lit. Sideswipe shifted over to him and sat down beside his broken brother, Sunstreaker looked up at him.

"I lost her Sides. I actually lost her because of my stupid pride." Sunstreaker mumbled.

"You didn't know this would happen." Sideswipe replied.

"I gotta bring her back, i just got to. You know when i'm asleep i can hear her calling out to me but i can't reach her. I want to grab her and hold and never let her go, but i can't find her." Sunstreaker sobbed.

"You're not looking hard enough. Come on it's time for her funeral."

Dragging Sunstreaker out of the room, Sideswipe finally got him down to the Autobot graveyard. The other Mech's watched the yellow twin carefully as he kept his eyes on Starfire's coffin. Sideswipe held his twin close to him, as if he was afraid he would give in right beside him.

"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to mourn the death of a trusted and most loving companion. A loving sister, a faithful sparkmate and a trusted commander Starfire grew in the army faster than any other. Growing up in the neutrality town of Cybertron Starfire grew up with our strongest warrior's. A beloved sister to three fine seeker's Starfire was a Mech no one will ever forget."

Mech's and Femme's around the coffin hung their head's as Optimus continued his speech, Sideswipe kept his hold on Sunstreaker as Prime went on. Fearing that he might lose another held so dear to him, feeling Sunstreaker shift in his grasp Sideswipe looked at him.

"You okay." He asked.

"I want to go, i can't do this let me go." Sunstreaker mumbled.

"You gotta stick it out, for Starfire." Sideswipe replied.

"Let me go." Sunstreaker snarled silently.

"No. Don't be a coward do it for Starfire."

Sunstreaker stood silently as he kept his eyes on the coffin and his hold on his brother, words of doubt poured through his mind. Things he could have changed, things he could have done, words he should have said.

You could have saved her.

You should have been there.

She needed you and you abandoned her.

Will she ever forgive me?

I got to make her forgive me, i got to find her.

I got to tell her that...

Sunstreaker clutched his chest as a stabbing pain ran through it, his optics glazed over as a flash of light shone in front of him. He felt arms grab him as he fell, but all words from his brother were silent as his systems shut down.

The abyss.

It was cold, so cold.

Dark, cold and all he could feel was pain.

Pain that wasn't his alone, a pain he had to heal with words he should have said from the start.

His optics lit as he studied the area around him, all he could see was darkness but there in the distance was a light. A light slowly fading out from this world and the next, he lunged towards the light and grabbed it pulling it close.

I'm sorry.

Autobot base.

To say Ratchet was of his rocket was a complete understatement, Sideswipe was going ballistic and Ratchet was trying his best not to shoot the worried twin there and then. But what he wanted to know was what in pit's name happened. What made him collapse, what triggered the seizure and most of all what made his spark stop?

All those worries suddenly disappeared as Sunstreaker drew in a sharp breath as his systems rapidly came back online. Sideswipe darted into the room as he felt his twin reach out to him with a feeling he thought had long gone.

"Sunny. Sunny can you hear me." Ratchet called as he ran scans over the yellow warrior.

"F-Fine." He choked back. "S-Starfire."

"She's dead sunny." Sideswipe replied.

"No she's not." Starscream said as he came through the door's with the jet in his arms. "Her systems came back online a few seconds ago and she started freaking out before she collapsed again."

Sideswipe pinned Sunstreaker to the berth as the Decepticon air commander lay Starfire down across from him. Both optics watched her carefully one worried, one filled with joy. A moan escaped the woken Jet and Sunstreaker was of the berth before Sideswipe could react.

"Star'." Sunstreaker called as he knelt beside her. "Come on babe wake up."

"S-Sunny." Starfire whispered back. "W-What's going on?"

"Primus i thought I'd lost you, you died and we couldn't bring you back but i couldn't let you go not at the way i had left things." Sunstreaker mumbled as he held her close

"B-But you found me. You came back for me i saw you; you came into the abyss for me. You entered the dark and became my light why would you do that if you hated me." Starfire cried.

"I don't hate you." Sunstreaker whispered a she held her close. "I love you."

Starfire smiled tiredly up at him as she rested in the warmth of his embrace, her spark connecting back to his. All fear, all pain, all burden's worries and care's drifted away as she slowly drifted to sleep.

"Forgive me." Sunstreaker asked.

"I already have." Starfire replied.
