Chapter 35

We entered the ruined city. The streets were piled with rubble, cars, and bodies. We climbed out of Epps' car along with the other soldiers stepping out of their own. "My god," I heard Epps say once he was on a high rise overlooking the city, or what was left. The high rise he stood on was the remains of a building.

"We came here to find her in the middle of all that? Are we really going in there Epps?" an overweight African American male asked who was wearing a bullet proof vest. "I'm not going in there."

"No one's going in," Epps said.

"I am, with or without you I will find her," Sam said.

"As am I," I said. I had the last Cyberotrain weapon; I had a chance of fighting off and offlining the Decepticons.

"You're gonna get yourself killed Sam, Allison," Epps called after us, running to catch us. "Is that what you want? Is that what you want?" Epps asked grabbing Sam's arm and trying to stop him. Sam shook him off. "You came all this way to get yourself killed? Huh? Listen…to me, what I'm saying," Epps said as Sam shook him off again as I did likewise. If I died today then I would get to see my friends again.

"She's here because of me, do you understand?" Sam asked. Sam was now looking at him. I was annoyed, the longer we stood here the more time that the Decepticons would have to find us.

"Listen, if you go in this building, that's if she's even still alive there's no way you're going to be able to even reach her," Epps said. As an argument started between Epps and Sam but what to do or it being over or not I sense incoming Energon sources. Familiar Energon sources, ones I never thought I would sense again. I also sensed a Decepticon, a large one coming. "Woah incoming!" Epps yelled and we all fell into the ground to keep an alien ship from landing on us.

Suddenly a shot rang out, one to loud to belong to a human gun and the alien ship went down. "We will kill them all," Optimus said ejecting the shell from his gun. I looked up in awe and then ran to them.

"Optimus!" I called as I jumped to start climbing up to his shoulder. Once there I hugged him the best that I could. I then jumped from shoulder to shoulder of the auto bots, hugging them, including Sunny. The Decepticon was busting his way out of the aircraft.

"Wreckers, kill him," one of the Wreckers ordered. "This is going to hurt a lot," the same Wrecker said. Sam and Epps were just getting up from the ground, looking on in shock. I felt such relief to know that my friends were still alive.

"Your leaders will now understand, Decepticons will never leave your planet alone, and we needed them to believe we had gone. For today, in the name of freedom, we take the battle to them," Optimus said pointing in the direction of the city. I smiled again, I would once again be fighting alongside my friends and family.

"But your ship, we saw it blow up, the missile Starscream fired hit it," I said looking up at my friends.

"The ship, we were never in the ship," Roadbuster, the green wrecker said. "We designed the damn thing didn't we?"

"We were hidden in the first booster rocket to separate, splashed down back in the Atlantic, just as planned. We ain't going nowhere," Leadfoot, the red overweight mech said spitting a piece of metal out of his mouth. The other was Topspin and two smaller mechs climbed out of his open window, which happened to be the only way in since his alt mode was a race car.

"Yeah, no one's exiling us," Brains said.

"The Auto bots are staying right here. We're going to help you win this war," Wheelie said. Both of them were standing on the hood of Topspin's alt mode.

"They're surrounding the city to make a fortress, so that no one can see what they're up to inside. Our only chance is the element of surprise," Optimus said.

"I think I know where to look," Sam said as we all headed into the city. Sam and Bee were going to fly the ship in that the Decepticon was using.

Lennox's POV

I was in a meeting with militaries from around the nation, all branches. I was dealing with what was happening on Chicago. I wished Allison was here to help me deal with this. She was a natural peace keeper. "Mini-drones on approach, Trump Tower."

"You're telling me, Sam and Allison are heading into that? Poor kids. Probably never got close," Mearing said looking at all the monitors. Clearly she had not seen this kind of destruction before.

Sam's POV

Sam was now standing on the ship looking at Bee, "Your gonna fly this thing, right?" Bee waved his hand side to side, not a comforting gesture. "What does, what is that, what is that?" Sam asked making the same hand gesture. "So-so? So you so-so can fly, that feels terrible." I would have to agree with Sam.

"Both of you will be just fine," I said patting Bee on his leg.

"We're right behind you," Epps said handing Sam a glock. "All right we're going in," Epps said.
