Two weeks had passed since Alaina and Sideswipe's confrontation in her room. Since then, the two had become inseparable. Where one went, the other did too. Often, they were seen sitting in the Rec. Room, Alaina on the silver mech's shoulder, just talking. Sunstreaker, on the other hand, was a totally different story. The egotistical mech had not so much as breathed near her since he over heard their conversation. His excuse was that he wanted to give the two of them their space. Or at least, that's what he kept on telling himself.

Alaina herself was currently sitting in Ratchet's med bay, on a large metal berth. For the first time in a while, Sideswipe wasn't with her; she had shooed him away to spend time with his brother. Ratchet had called her in for a check-up on how her weight and general health was doing. "So, Ratchet, how do I look?" She asked him, swinging her legs back and forth.

"Well," He said, doing a quick scan, "your seem to be doing very well for yourself. You have gained weight in a healthy manner, and your health is improving as well, although you will be starting your menstrual cycle next week." The bluntness in which he told her this caused red fire to spread across her cheeks.

"Uhh…thanks?" She muttered.

"You are welcome. I suggest you collect the needed supplies soon." Once again she was shocked at his straightforwardness.

"C'mon, 'Sides, surely you can do better than that!" Sunstreaker said jokingly as one of Sideswipe's swings went wide as he ducked at the last second.

"I could say the same to you, Sunny!" He retaliated, sidestepping a well-aimed swing and blocking it with his own. The brothers continued to banter back and forth as they tried to land a hit on each other. All was fun and games with the two until a noise made them stop in their tracks, arms still poised for battle. The safety alarm had been breached. They were under attack.

"Alaina!" Ratchet yelled the second the alarm sounded. "Get to the safe room! Don't stop for anything." When she just looked at him for a moment, shock and fear clear as day on her face, he picked her up and set her down by the door. After she took off running, the medic prepared himself for battle.

Alaina ran through the bustling halls of the base as quickly as she could push her lefs, trying to remember where exactly the safe room was. It seemed like so long ago when she met the four other humans that had befriended the Autobots. Aside from military personnel, that is. She hadn't seen them since, and she was guessing that they were either at their homes, or just hadn't crossed paths with her yet.

Gasping for breath, she turned the corner and her body slammed into something incredibly hard, sending her flying backwards onto the floor. "Well, well, well, what do we have here?"

Sideswipe spared a glance at Sunstreaker and they made eye contact before tearing through the training room and into a battle. Sideswipe was painfully worried about Alaina, but he knew that Ratchet wouldn't let her get harmed. He just hoped that she stayed in the safe room. He didn't want anything, or anyone, to hurt her.

Alaina looked up in shock. A large, very angular mech loomed over her, red optics gleaming sadistically. "Just who are you, little human?" He asked her, scooping her up in his large claws roughly. "You will be good use as a piece of bait." He deduced. "Lord Megatron will be pleased. The captive girl struggled fruitlessly as the Decepticon brought her to his master. READ AN IT'S KINDA IMPORTANT.

A/N: I'm terribly sorry for how short it is, but I thought that it was a brilliant place to leave it. And I have a question for you guys. Would you like shorter chapters, but quicker updates, or longer chapters, but slower updates? Review and let me know what you think! Also, I'm afraid to say that this fic will be coming to a close fairly soon. I think it's going to top off at 13 chapters. I'm so proud, it will be my first FINISHED fic! Lord knows how many unfinished ones I have...

Please review and let me know what you think! And thanks for reading.
