"HOLD ON!" Optimus shouted, as he pressed the three of us against his chestplate. Sam, Tessa and I, closed our eyes preparing ourselves for the impact; hoping that we will survive and see our families again. There was a loud bang as the ship hit the ground; things that were inside the ship were falling around us, as the ship continued to slide across the surface; finally after a couple of minutes the ship came to a halt.
"Is everyone alright?" Optimus asked, putting us gently down on the ground and rising to his feet.
The three of us nodded our heads; we were still shaken by the impact.
"We have to find a way out, before the ship explodes," Sam said.
"Or, before they tear us apart," I said, pointing with my finger at two large wolves, that were standing few feet away from us.
"Stay behind me!" Optimus shouted, as his battle mask slid across his mouth; he transformed both of his servos; one into a sword and another into a shield.
The two wolves attacked him; Optimus managed to dodge one, and to hit another wolf with his shield. The wolf he hit with his shield shook his head, before he attacked him again, knocking the Autobot leader on the ground.
"OPTIMUS!" The three of us screamed, as we watched the wolf trying to bite Optimus by the throat; all of a sudden the wolf trying to bite him was thrown into a wall, followed by the second wolf; the four of us turned our heads to look at the person who did that; in front of us stood one of the knights. The impact must have awakened them.
"Grimlock…." Optimus began, but the knight attacked him with his mace. Optimus rolled over, dogging Grimlock's mace. He quickly rose to his feet; the knight threw himself at Optimus, and they both fell outside of the ship and began tumbling down.
"What the….?" Bumblebee muttered shocked, as Optimus and Grimlock tumbled pass him; the young scout blinked a few times making sure what he saw was real.
"Ratchet, Optimus needs our help," Bumblebee said, through his comm. link.
"We are on our way Bumblebee," Ratchet replied.
Optimus and Grimlock continued tumbling down until they reached the bottom of the hill, as they hit the ground they both rolled out on opposite sides of each other.
"Legendary warrior," Optimus began, standing up. "The powers that created us now want us all extinguished. We must join forces, or else we'll all be their slaves. So today you stand with me... or you stand against me," he said.
Grimlock roared in response and charged at Optimus; Optimus dogged him, turning around, Optimus punched Grimlock in the face. "Only together can we survive! Let me lead you!" He said, trying to reason with the leader of the knights, but the knight wouldn't listen.
"WHOA!" Jazz said, as he transformed, followed by the rest of the Autobots. "That's one ugly Cybertronian."
"I AM A SERVANT TO NO ONE!" Grimlock roared, transforming into T-Rex, charging again at Optimus.
"Do you think sensei needs our help?" Drift asked Ironhide.
"Nah, he has everything under control," Ironhide replied, waving his servo.
"Come here!" Optimus yelled, grabbing Grimlock by the throat and knocking him to the ground. "We're giving you freedom!" He said, as he sucker punched Grimlock to the ground and transforming his servo into a sword, ready to offline him. "Defend my family, or die!"
"Alright," Grimlock said, submissively.
Optimus helped Grimlock to stand up.
"Fellow Autobots…" Optimus began, turning to his fellow comrades. "As you all know, Lockdown was the one who was hunting us; but what you do not know is... that the humans are helping him."
"What?!" the Autobots said, at the same time.
"Why would the humans do that to us?" Ratchet asked.
"And after all we have done to help them protect the Earth from the Decepticons," Jazz said.
"For that question I do not have an answer, but what I do know is… that we are going to fight back; Earth is our home now, and we will not let them force us out."
"Optimus you are alright. Thank God," Sam said as he, Tessa and I run toward the Autobot leader.
"SAM…!" Mikaela shouted, running up to him and hugging him. "You are alright," she whispered, kissing him.
"What's she doing here?" Ironhide asked, narrowing his optics at me.
" Lockdown captured her too," Optimus said, but the weapon specialist didn't hear him, or he didn't want to hear him.
"I thought I told you that the next time I see you, I'll offline you," Ironhide continued as he approached me. He raised his cannons and aimed at me; scared I took a step back.
"Do that, and I swear to Primus you will offline," a voice behind Ironhide growled.
