Chapter Three

"Koji, any luck in finding Topaz?" Prowl asked opening communication with the boy but received no reply. Prowl found that strange, Koji always answered their communications unless there was something blocking the signal, but there was nothing around that could do that.

"Prowl, meet up with your brothers and head towards the shopping district. Megatron's causing trouble there." TAI suddenly said.

"On my way TAI." Prowl acknowledged and headed towards the area, sirens blaring.
He met up with his brothers soon after.

"Any luck in finding Topaz?" X-Brawn asked.

"No." Prowl replied.

"I don't see why you're out looking for her. She'll come back. It's not like you made her angry again." Side Burn commented. "You… didn't make her angry again… did you?"

"No Side Burn. I did not." Prowl said slightly annoyed.

Scourge and the rest of the Decepticons were almost to the temple shown to them by Megatron.

"Why do we continue to take orders from that idiot." Mega-Octane asked.

"As soon as we have this energy we won't need to take orders from that fool Megatron. We can get rid of both him and those annoying Autobots." Scourge said.

As they pulled up to the temple they transformed and Scourge told Rollbar and Armourhide to stand guard while they looked for the energy. It was then a voice said "You Decepticreeps out doing a little sightseeing?" they turn and see a sliver MGA PR3 sports car.

"None of your business, Autobot." Movar said.

"Oh but you see it is my business, coz wherever you Decepticons appear there's trouble."

"The only trouble we'll be making is for you." Scourge said firing a few missiles at the sports car, who dodged them easily. "I have no time to fool around with you." He turned to the other Decepticons "Ro-Tor, Armourhide, take care of this Autopest while we search for the energy." Turning and walking in with the rest of the Decepticons, leaving Rollbar to stand guard.

"Energy?" Raincloud said in slight surprise and confusion.

"Say goodnight, Autoscum." Armourhide said as both he and Ro-Tor fired at the MG.

Raincloud immediately drove in reverse swerving to avoid the laser fire. Performing a 180-degree turn and facing away from the two Decepticons. "You Deceptitwits couldn't hit a stationary target, let a lone a fast moving Autobot like me." She insulted.

"Why you…" Ro-Tor began.

"You want me, come and get me Deceptifreaks." Driving off.

The two Decepticons transformed and went after Raincloud firing as they went.
"Isn't that just like a femme…" Armourhide said "Running from a fight."

Raincloud screeched to a halt and transformed turning to look at them both.
"What!" she yelled.

The two Decepticons also transformed and stood in front of her.

"Looks like you hit a circuit, Armourhide." Ro-Tor said amused at the femme's reaction.

"Of course, Ro-Tor. Femmes have no place on the battlefield, they're useless and they only get in the way." Armourhide continued also amused.

"Useless am I… I'll show you two who's useless." She got out her gun and aimed it at them.

"Oh no the femme's got a gun what are going to do, Ro-Tor." Armourhide mocked.
Ro-Tor could only laugh in response at Armourhide's mocking.

Raincloud's anger grew worse and she was about to fire when a shower of laser fire appeared from the sky. Thinking it to be Freespirit she looked up and over preparing to yell at them only to be surprised when she saw it was Ultra Magnus firing at the two Decepticons not Freespirit.

The Autobot brothers and Optimus Prime had just arrived where Megatron had appeared and saw him reach down to pick up a human girl.

"Hold it right there, Megatron." Optimus said, transforming.

Megatron stopped and looked over, a crooked smile appearing on his face "Ah Optimus Prime. I'm glad you could make it, I wanted you to see this one's demise for yourself." And picked up the girl.

"Topaz!" Prowl suddenly said transforming.

Side Burn and X-Brawn also transformed and also noticed Koji lying on the ground unconscious.
"What you do to them, Megatron." X-Brawn asked slightly angry.

"You should be asking what I will be doing to this one. She has caused me enough trouble and now I will end her miserable existence!" as he spoke he shook Topaz and the Autobots could see blood trickling down her cheek from a cut there, she also had a bloodstained t-shirt and a gash on her right arm.

Prowl couldn't help but stare at the injured 'humanised' form of his lover. He couldn't believe his luck, he'd just got her back a few months ago and she was being taken from him again.

"Let her go Megatron."

Everyone was surprised that it wasn't Optimus or Prowl who had said that but Side Burn.
Megatron said nothing but slowly increased his grip on the unconscious female making the blood flow out of her faster and faster.
