A/N This chapter is short because I'm suffering from writers block right now. I hope the next will be better. Thank you all for the reviews/alerts/ favorites. Don't forget to review :)


Tessa did exactly what Optimus told her; she was hiding in the dark, waiting for the perfect opportunity to get to the main computer and send a call for help. Finally, after several hours of waiting she got that opportunity; she saw Lockdown coming down the hallway, as he approached the spot where she was hiding, she quietly took off her boots; she was about to follow him when he suddenly stopped and turned around. Tessa quickly returned to her hiding place and stopped breathing, hoping that he didn't saw her. Lockdown scanned the hallway, but he didn't find anyone; he shook his helm and continued his walk down the hallway. As he turned around the corner of the hallway, Tessa quickly and quietly followed him to the main computer room. As the doors close behind her, she quickly ran and hid in a space between two tall metal cabinets; she was completely hidden from Lockdown and his wolves. Alright, I managed to get to the main computer room, now what? Tessa wondered. Suddenly the doors opened and a strange egg-shaped creature entered in followed by a human male in a black suit. As she saw the creature entering in, Tessa covered her mouth with her hand so she wouldn't scream. The creature slowly floated toward Lockdown.

"Who's he?" Lockdown asked, looking at the human standing next to the creature.

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Harold Attinger founder of the Cemetery wind," the man said.

"What do you want human?" Lockdown asked.

"I talked to your employee here and we came to a conclusion that the Autobots and the Decepticons have to be exterminated."

"And….?"

"And, we need your help for that. We can't do it alone," Attinger replied.

"And, why should I help you?"

"Because, I know how much you love hunting; you are like me," Attinger said, as his lips stretched into an evil smile.

"Don't flatter yourself human. I'm nothing like you," Lockdown said. "Does your government know about this?" Lockdown asked titling his helm to the right and crossing his servos over his chest plates.

"No, and I would prefer to stay like that."

"My god they are going to kill them all, and the government hasn't a clue," Tessa whispered to herself, as she listened to their conversation.

"What's in it for you?" Lockdown asked.

"We are going to keep their bodies after you are done with them."

"For what do you need their bodies?" Lockdown asked.

"Melting of course."

Lockdown took a couple of minutes to think about it. Finally he answered.

"Alright I will do it. Not for you, but because I love watching them run."

"Excellent" Attinger said, clapping his hands together. "These are your first targets," he said, showing Lockdown a picture of Skids and Mudflap on his mobile phone.

Lockdown lowered his helm to take a better view of the pictures.

"This is going to be easy," he said with an evil laugh. And with that the three of them left the room.

When Tessa was sure that it's safe, she come out of her hiding place and approached the computer screen.

How am I going to get up there? She wondered, as she looked around trying to find something that would help her climb up, and then she saw a computer cable. She noticed the wires sticking out of the cable.

Perfect, she thought to herself as she grabbed one of the wires and began climbing up.

After a couple of minutes she finally got to the controls.

"I forget to ask Optimus which button I have to press," she quietly whispered to herself. Maybe this one she thought as she jumped on the red button.

Suddenly and without a warning there was a strong explosion and the ship tilted to the left. Tessa quickly jumped again and the ship returned to its original position.

"Alright, stay away from that button Tessa," she said to herself. "OK, let's try this button," she said and jumped on it.

The moment she jumped on the button the sirens sounded throughout the entire ship; red lights flashed throughout the entire ship.

"No, no, no" Tessa said, as she panicky jumped on the button hoping to stop the alarm.

Finally the alarm went off.

Tessa stopped jumping trying to catch her breath.

"Well, this is the only button I didn't press," she said, to herself as she approached the button."Third time's the charm," she said, and jumped. She heard the crackling sound coming out of the ship speakers as they turned on. "Here goes nothing," she said, as she approached the screen. "Um… can anyone hear me?" she asked timidly.

Silence….

Ok, Tessa you can do it she thought, as she took a deep breath. "Calling all Autobots; I repeat calling all Autobots. Optimus Prime is alive; he is aboard Lockdown's ship. I repeat, Optimus Prime is alive; he is aboard Lockdown's ship. We need immediate assistance; I repeat we need immediate assista….." but before she could finish the sentence, a large metal hand grabbed her and lifted her from the controls.

And before she could react or even scream, Tessa came face to face with Lockdown.

"I thought I smelled a rat on my ship."
