Almost there! I hate to say it but I can't wait to write the ending. I've had the ending in my head for MONTHS! Its gonna be good, just wait!

I love writing in this thing! :)

I do not own any part of the Transformers franchise. Transformers belongs to it's sole producers, companies and franchises.

Enjoy! All reviews are welcome!

XOXOX

"Optimus, let me help you. Let me fight with you!" Carly demanded as it had seemed like everything faded back to reality after their kiss.

"Carly, you barely know how to transform…you know nothing about fighting. Please Carly don't be stupid…not now at least." Optimus pleaded against her as he tried to convince her to think more clearly.

"Let me learn here! You're out numbered by the Decepticons, you can at least use one more on your side!" Carly just so happened to mention.

With everything happening around them…for instance debris flying through the streets, pieces of buildings even cars whirling behind them…Optimus couldn't help but to think about Carly's observation. They were out numbered, dangerously out numbered. Was he going to let her fight, to risk her being injured…or worse…well, he couldn't think about that. But he just couldn't let go of the fact that they were out numbered…they could use one more on their side. However, Optimus just couldn't bring himself to answer Carly in anyway. And noticing this, Carly decided to answer for him as she decided to transform into her newly adapted robotic form. Needless to say, it took Optimus by surprise as she stood before him.

And not that she wasn't beautiful in her true form, in which she was but…she looked even more beautiful now as she stood facing him with a comforting hand on his shoulder. She could tell Optimus was confused as to what he should do, she knew he knew what was right from wrong and she knew he was toying with that idea. And yet with her comforting hand on his shoulder, he knew there was no way around this.

He knew she was going to be part of this and in reality, it made him sick…and yet…he knew she had to start somewhere because after all, she was a Prime.

"We'll talk about this later, right now…there's more important things to take care of. But right now…if there's anything you know…anything…you've got to tell us." Optimus told her as he held on to her shoulders and stared into her beautiful, glowing bright blue eyes that were full of wonder. And yet, he knew she knew a lot more than he did at this point.

"Those pillars that they've been after are for a space bridge. When it gets activated, Cybertron will be transported into our atmosphere…"

"Where are they planning to launch this space bridge?" Ratchet questioned.

"You see that building over there with the dome? Their staging the five main pillars that activate the space bridge within that dome…or…at least that's what I think I heard Dylan saying before I drifted off to sleep." Carly mentioned.

At least that's what she remembered. Before she fell asleep, everything was a blur. There were so many conversations going on up in that plane. Between that and her thoughts, she just seemed to drift off to sleep. However, she knew she remembered Dylan saying something about the building with the dome…and she knew that building had to be it.

"Optimus, how are we going to get over there? It looks close enough but…they're making a fortress around the city. All the bridges have been brought up and I'm sure they've got it surrounded. There's no way we'll be able to get over there…" Ratchet couldn't help but to bring to his attention.

Feeling defeated, maybe even hopeless, Optimus just couldn't help but to look at his fellow Autobots. Even though he was Optimus Prime…their leader, however he just couldn't help but to feel as though he had let them down. They were powerful in their own way, but…they just needed ways of getting around the city…more manpower with them, in which they could get in and out of places where they couldn't. They needed the NEST team, which Optimus knew the United States government had gotten rid of. This couldn't have gotten any worse. This is what Optimus was trying to prevent all along and yet, he just couldn't help but to think that he let them down. That he led them this far without a sense of going any farther, like he had failed as being their leader…and…as being a Prime.

"We need a miracle!" Was all Optimus could say under his breath as Carly heard him and couldn't help but to feel for him.

"Don't worry Optimus, things will work out…I know they will. I know you better than this…" Was all Carly could bring herself to say as she heard her ring tone to her cell phone.

Somehow, someway within all that noise, all that destruction she heard the sound of her ring tone to her cell phone down on the ground. Frantically she reverted back to her human form and when she went to answer it, she was extremely shocked to see that it was Lennox.

"Lennox!" Carly practically yelled into the mouthpiece as Optimus slightly perked up when he heard Carly.

"Yeah, its me. We're coming. We've got GPS coordinates from your cell phone. We'll be there, we've just gotta find someway into the city. Looks like parachuting is the only way to go. Do me a favor and DON'T TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONE! It's the only way we are able to be find you. Be safe, we'll be there shortly!" Lennox told her as Optimus secretly took a sigh of relief when he heard that it was Lennox.

"That was Colonel Lennox. Him and the rest of the NEST team are on their way. Until they get here, we've just gotta do what we can. They can find us by my cell phone…"

"Then its settled. Carly…I want you to go with the wreckers." Optimus told her.

"But you're the one they need to be finding the most!"

"You need to go with the wreckers so they can find you! I'll be fine, trust me!" Optimus told her as he looked down at her, even though he could tell that she didn't want to do as she was told.

However as Bumblebee drove in front of her to take her to wherever it was they were going, Carly just stood there behind the opened passenger side door as she just longingly looked up at Optimus. As the Autobots were gearing up for battle, as the city of Chicago was being destroyed all around them…Carly just longingly looked up at Optimus. In search for answers, in search for some sort of direction. Carly just stood there before she got into the yellow and black Camaro when in reality…she was practically standing in the wake of devastation and waiting on the edge of the unknown.

And so were the rest of them…including Optimus. But yet, she knew what she wanted to do and that was not going with the wreckers. No matter what Optimus told her to do, she had it set in her heart what she wanted to do.

"No, I'm not going with them. I'm going with you…no matter what you say! I've lost you twice…I'm not loosing you a third time!" Was all Carly told him as she closed the door to the yellow and black Camaro.

PS: Okay, I'm trying so hard not to write Dark of the Moon word for word here…not exactly succeeding. Oh well, almost can't help it at this point. Guess that's why they call it a FANFICTION!

Just a few more chapters to go…can't wait to write the ending! Getting excited! :)
