Chapter 2

"RUN!" Optimus tries to run for it but he sees someone is running to them. He turns back to see a man running to him. Behind him, is a herd of the undead. All are running after the man. Prime looks around, wondering what he can use to stop the stampede. He sees a chair, he throws it to the zombie. Three of them gets hit by the chair , making them fall, causing a domino effect. The stampede stops for a little. The man runs to Optimus "Come on!' Prime holds out his hand. He grabs it and both start running. Optimus carries Bee, and runs for it. Bee hides his face, he doesnt' want to see this. Prime gets hit by one of the people, he goes down. Bee rolls away, from his arms. He tries to move around, trying not to be step on. He stops cold, as he sees one dead man, jumping to him. Optimus tries to get up, but he gets step on. He then shouts as he sees the zombie already about to get Bee. "NOOOO BEE!"

Bee closes his eyes, he tries to block it. He does't feel anything. He gets up to see Tron hitting the zombie with a pole. Kronika runs to Bee. She grabs him, and start running.

"Wait my dad!" Bee shouts

"He will meet us at the train. That's where we are all going" she says

Tron starts hitting the zombies one by one. He gets to Prime. He hits one of them. He tries his best but there are too many. Optimus gets up but gets tackle down by one zombie. He fights it off, he tries to keep the mouth away from him. He can't get bitten, once it bites him, he is gone. He cries out as the zombie keeps shaking, he is getting closer to Prime's neck. All of a sudden, there is a jacket over the zombie. Optimus throws it away, he sees the man holding out his hand. Prime takes it, gets help out and both run for it. Tron is already close to the train. He looks back to see the two running. Tron stops as he see shield, and nightstick from the gaurds. He picks one up and starts swinging it around. He throws one at Prime, he catches it and starts hitting the zombies. He goes for the head, hoping it can stop them. "Why isn't there guns?" Tron says. "it could really help right now' He uses the shield to bring throw zombies back. Prime is now next to Tron, along with the man that save him. He looks to see everyone getting on the train. His eyes widen, when some people are trying to open train car twelve, eleven, and ten.

"WAIT NO!" Prime shouts "NOT THOSE" It was too late. The pack of zombies go running out. All chasing the living. Optimus stops in his tracks and starts running to the front. "Let's get to the top five cars...those were clear' Prime keeps running, he then hears a noise. "THE TRAIN!" he shouts "it's moving!

"RUN!" Tron shouts


Kronika is running as fast as she can with Bee. He looks back, wondering if his dad is right behind stumbles a bit. "We have to move forward...we can't stop for nothing"

"But dad...he is..."

"I'm sure he will be okay. Just like my man would" she says. She runs down to the train. She opens the door to car five. She helps Bee in, and looks to see others are running to the train too. She brings Bee closer to her, and hide behind the seats. She gasp when she sees Val and Tarn pacing back and forth. She looks at Bee. "Stay here"

"We have to move...we have to" Tarn shouts at Val. He shakes his head. "There...is..."

Captain Bot comes in, he wonders what is going on. He sees people trying to get on the train. He is about to head back up the controls. He looks at Val.

"When everyone is on...signal me..."

"NO!" Tarn shouts "We have to leave now!

"No we can't leave them behind" he shouts

"We need to survive, every man for himself" Tarn shouts "Now let's go"

Val nods "He is right, start the train, let's move"

"NO!" Kronika runs to them "My husband is still out there"

"I...I.." Captain Bot says

"If we don't move, We are going to die...now!" Tarn shouts at her

"We have to wait, My husband, his dad...are still out there...he is going to make it!" she says. Bee comes out holding the captain's arm.

"My dad...he is close" Bee says. kronika holds him back. Bee is close to crying, his dad has to make. They have to wait for him.

There is a loud roar, a loud shout, yelling, crying. Captain looks out the window. The people are falling, one by one. All are fighting for their lives, some of them, don't make it. He shakes his head, the zombies are getting close, if they don't move, they can die.

"I'm sorry...we are moving" He says. He runs to the controls. He starts the train.

Bee tries to stop him but Tarn grabs him. "Sorry kid, only the strong survive" He shoves him down to a seat. Bee cries out. He hugs his knees, he hopes his dad can make it. Tarn follows Val, and then the rest of them folllow him. They rest go to car three. Kronika decides to stay put. She wants to stay here for now. As the people are going to car three, three zombies appear out of nowhere. Car four had zombies. The must have climb in with th train was put. Kronika gasps as she sees people fighting for their life, running away.

Kronika runs to the window, trying to find him. She can't see much, all she sees is a herd of zombies, down the sidewalk, are people fighting off the zombies. She sighs, "Please...Tron, you have to make it" The train start moving, slowly gaining it's speed. She grabs Bee and both go into the restroom. She locks it, hoping the zombies don't hear her, or even find her. She hugs Bee tighter. She takes out her phone. She text, she hopes he gets it.


"The TRAIN!" Prime is running to catch up to one car. Tron is right behind him. Optimus looks back to see zombies running after them. He grabs Tron and throws him to the car. Tron lands on his side. He claws and grabs onto a pole. He gets up. He goes out to reach for Prime. Optimus then grabs the other man and throws him to Tron. He catches him and brings him in. Tron gets out and He reaches for his hand. Optimus reaches but stops when he sees someone ahead of him. "LOOk OUT!" Tron turns to see a pole, he goes in. Prime dodges it and he keeps running. He then sees one person limping to the train. Optimus grabs the person and tosses him to Tron. He genlty place the person down. He turns to see a herd of zombies running to Prime.

"Hurry!" Tron shouts.

Prime jumps for it. Megatron catches him, and he brings him up. He helps him inside.

"HELP!" They hear. Prime looks out along with Tron. Optimus gasps. Grimlock is running with his teammates. He is trying his best to catch the train. Optimus lend a hand. Grimlock reaches but he trips over a body. "NOo"

Prime growls, he jumps off the train.

"Optimus!" Tron shouts. Optimus runs to the kid. He helps him up. He looks back to see the other running as well. He can still see the zombies running for it. At this moment, this speed, they won't reach the top five cars. He looks at car eight. "He is crazy!" Tron shouts as he jumps off as well. He uses the shield to stop the zombies. He makes his way to Optimus. "We can reach car eleven"

Optimus nods. He grabs Grimlock and he throws him to the car. He grabs on, getting himself up. Grim then goes to help the others. Tron throws Bulkhead, while Optimus throws Wheeljack. Tron grabs Prime but both trip over a body. The both tumble down. "FU-" Optimus whispers. He gets up quickly, he helps Tron. The two start running but one zombie is already inches behind them. Optimus shoves tron out of the way, but the zombie gets hit by a shield. The other man is running next to them. He jumps to eleven, grabs on, he holds Tron's hand, while Tron holds Optimus. The man growls as he pulls them in. Right on time, the train is now in full speed. The guys are all taking a breath. Optimus is exhuasted, he is tired. He coughs a little.

"Thanks man..." Tron says

"Ultra Magnus..." The man says "I'm Magnus"

"Wait...you were the one that said the end is near...everyone will die"

"Yes...and I was right" Magnus says

"Great..." Optimus says. He lays down but jumps up when he sees zombies just standing there. "Wait...what car are we on?"

"I think this is eight..." Magnus says

"Nope...it's eleven" Tron says "Why...'

"SHH" Optimus says "over there.." Optimus tries to focus. "The other three are in car eight...we should meet with them, and then meet with our family"

"My wife texted me...they are in car five.." Tron says "Your son is okay" he looks down with sadness

"What...what?!"

"They are trap, there are zombies on the car five"

"Oh man!' Optimus kicks the door. "I think all the cars might have some"

"Don't worry...Kronika will protect him"

"Thank you" he says "Come on...let's move"

The three get up. The guys slowly walk up, getting to car ten. Optimus checks for zombies, he looks around carefully, he doesn't want to fight them again. He sees that it is clear. He slowly walks down the aisle. He doesnt' see any, he hopes that there are none at car nine, that's where the other are at. Tron taps him.

"Optimus...look, I know...you want to help and all but I think...we should start thinking about ourselves, we need to survive. I mean...we were close to safety but you had to jump off to help a KID!' Tron shouts. Optimus nods

"I know...but I can't leave him to die, he is just a kid" Prime says "I want to save everyone, I will fight"

"Okay...okay"

"SHH" Magnus says. "Behind us"

The zombies are walking to them, slowly. Optimus sees the door to car eight. "Let's run for it and close the door behind us"

Optimus opens the door, Tron and Magnus run for it. The zombies hears the footsteps and all go running to them. Optimus goes in and closes the door. He stumbles back when he hears the zombie crash to it. He sits down.

"You're okay!" He turns to see Grim smiling at him. "I'm so glad" He runs to Prime and hugs him. He didn't know what to do, so he decides to hug him back. "I thought...you didn't make it...and it will be my fault"

"No worries, all is good" He says. Grim let's go. He takes a step back.

"Now what?" Grim says

"I'm trying to get to my son" Optimus says "Tron to his wife. They are in car five, but zombies are in that car"

"Oh no...how are we going to get to them?" Grim says

"You don't have to..."

"I want to help. You help me so much, I want to return the favor" he says

"Okay..."

Tron gets up. He starts searching the bags. He finds tape, clothe. He starts wrapping his arms.

"Let's get ready..we are going to punch some zombies"

Prime nods. He looks for more tape, he finds duct tape, clothes, even some knee pads, elbow pads. He starts gearing up along with the others. Except for Jack and Bulk. They can't stand this. Bulk feels that Grim is going to get them killed.

"What should we do?" Bulk says

"I don't know" Jack says "Let's just follow them, for now, then we will make a run for it"

Optimus walks to the front of the car. He accidently steps on someone's foot. "Oh sorry" He looks to see a man sitting down hugging his knees. Prime neels in front of him. "Hey...you okay?" He doesn't answer, he just looks away. "Hey talk to me, you are safe with me" The man looks at him.

"I lost my brother" he says "I lost Shockwave"

"I'm sorry, I..."

"We were split up, I didn't see where he went. I trip over a body, and he tried to help me but other took him. They were shouting at him to leave me behind. He couldn't get to me. He tried his best...but then I was drag away from him. I ended up here..." He looks at Optimus "You saved me.."

"That's right I remember...why did they leave you?" Prime says "I saw you alone"

"Hurt my foot, so I couldn't run as fast"

"Oh well..I'm sure your brother is safe, maybe he is with the other that help him" he says "I'm sure of it...by the way I'm Optimus"

"Soundwave" he says.

"Well Soundwave let's help each other" he says "we are trying to reach my son, maybe your brother is with him. Can you help us?"

Soundwave nods. Prime gives him equipment. He starts gearing up. Optimus looks at the others. Tron walks up to him. He grabs him.

"Alright...I will lead, because I'm the best fighter here, and you four the middle, and Optimus...the rear. You will have our backs" Tron says "Let's do this" Tron opens the door to car seven. The car is fill with zombies, and Tron growls, "Oh boy"

He runs the kicks one zombie down. The rest come running to them, growling, moaning as they get hit by the guys. Tron is in the lead, trying his best to get through. He punchs one, kicks one, throws one. He continues. Grimlock is hitting each undead with a bat he found inside a bag. Luckliy he finds three. He gives it to Bulk and Wheeljack. The three are hitting each zombie. Soundwave and Magnus are right behind Tron. The two are trying to make way for Tron. Optimus is attacking the ones they pass. He gives it his all. He hears something crack behind him. He sees the back door to eight breaks, and the zombie runs to them.

"We have to HURRY!" Prime shouts

"I'm Trying!" Tron says. Soundwave jumps on the seat, and he kicks one zombie. That was it. Tron opens the door while Magnus and Grimlock are protecting him. He opens it. He goes in. He stops when he opens car six. He sees more zombies. He goes first, follow by Soundwave and Magnus. Optimus stops the stampede of the zombies. He runs to car six. He tries to close the door but it's jam. He growls. Tron is fighting in the front. The zombie are now catching up to them. He strikes each one. Tron can't get to the front of six. He is close, but only halfway. Soundwave is helping him out but they can't go further. Optimus is holding the other zombies back. Grimlock, jackie, and Bulk are getting the middle zombies. Tron tries his best to get to the front. "OH COME ON!" Prime is pin down, along with the others. He is fighting to push the zombie back. "NO NO"

Then it goes dark. The zombies stop attacking. They wander confuse. Looking around, they are not even attacking anymore. Prime gets up, he slowly gets up. He looks outside, "The tunnel" He says. "The zombies...the dark, they don't move around in the dark, they can't see"

"So...what does that mean?" Tron whispers

"They go by sound" Soundwave says

Magnus grabs a bag, and he throws it to the back. Making a big thud. The zombie all turn towards the noise. All go running to the noise. Magnus gets another one, he throws it across again, this time farther. The zombies goes after the noise. The men then run to car five. The zombies are the same. Just standing around. Optimus grabs a bag and throws it. The zombies go rushing to the noise. They then run to five. Tron stops when sees the restroom door. He opens it. He smiles.

Kronika is hugging Bee close. She looks to see Tron. She is about to yell at him but he stops her. He shushes her. She nods but punches his chest. She then smiles, but starts crying in relief. He goes in to hug her. Bee looks around to see his dad. He hugs him. Prime hugs him tight, holding him for dear life. Grimlock sees another restroom on the other side. He goes in, along with Bulk, Jackie. Prime moves Bee inside so he can look around. Tron goes in to sit next to Kronika. Magnus and Soundwave stand next to it. Then the light shines bright. They are outside the tunnel. The zombies turn to them. All start running to them. Prime gets pull back along with Soundwave. Magnus goes in with Tron. Kronika, Bee, Tron, Magnus are in one, while Optimus, Soundwave, Grimlock, Bulk and jackie are in the other. But not comfortable, all are squish tight.

"Now what?' Bulk whispers

"We need to go to car three.." Prime tries to say, but his chest is squish. Grimlock is not helping cause he is hugging Prime tight. "But..we are going to wait for the next tunnel"

"It looks like we have exactly ten minutes..." Soundwave says

"Okay..then we wait for the tunnel"

Tron looks at his phone. He explains to his wife that the zombies don't react in the dark. He searches when the next tunnel is coming up. He sees they have ten minutes. "We move in three" he says.

Optimus slowly opens the door, he looks out. It is still bright, he can hear the zombies moving around. He waits for it. He looks at the car, he wonders, how is this crowd going to make it to car three. He sees the top, where the luggage goes. He has an idea. Then it all went dark. The tunnel, it's time to move.

Optimus goes out along with the others. He is now on car four. Along with the others. He points to the top. Where all the lugggage are stored."We are going to crawl...up there" He whispers. Bulk and Wheeljack go up frist. They start crawling down. Grimlock and Soundwave follow. Tron goes out and see the guys crawling down. He nods in understanding. He sees Magnus already getting up. He goes for it. Tron helps Kronika up and she follows. He climbs up. Optimus helps Bee up and he goes on. He starts crawling. The poeple are crawling on both sides of the train. Trying hard not to make to much noise. He sees zombies, at the front. of car four. He sees a bag and he throws it. The zombies run to the noise. Bulk and Jack reaches the front. They slowly get off. Grimlock and Soundwave gets off after them. Magnus gets off. The five go to the door. They open it. Bulk and Jack run in.

The people on car three gasps. Bulk and Jack run to them. "They are infected! Close the door"

Grimlock and Magnus are waiting for the others. Magnus turns around to see the door closing. He gasps as he runs to it. He stops it with his arm. He cries out in pain. Grim looks at Magnus, who is shouting in pain. He tries to keep the door open. He goes to help him. He sees his friends "Jack...Bulk...come on...help us"

Optimus helps Bee down. He slowly leads him to the front of car four he sees the door close. He sees the Grim and Magnus are struggling to open the front door of four. He gasps "Oh no. Tron helps Kronika down. Optimus runs to the door. The people start shouting. Optimus gasps, the zombies, they are going by noise. He then sees the train light up. "Oh no" He whispers. He sees the zombies are running to them. He starts running to the back to keep the zombies from running to them. Tron makes it in time to close the back door on them but one gets caught.

"BULK" Grim shouts "OPEN UP!"

Bulk and Jackie shakes their head "I'm sorry Grim! You are INFECTED!"

"WHAT!'

"DON'T let them IN!" Bulk shouts

The people on the side are staring blankly at them. One of them walks up to the door. He gasps. "Let them in...LET them IN!" he cries

"What why?!" Tarn shouts "We can't let them in!"

"My brother!" he shouts "Soundwave!"

Soundwave sees his brother Shockwave. "Let us in"

Shockwave jumps to the ones who are holding the door. He tries to shove them away. Tarn gets up and grabs Shockwave and throws him across the train. He gets up but he gets held down by the others.

"It's for the best!" Tarn shouts. He goes to Magnus and punches him. He goes down. His shoulder starts hurting. The door gets shut. Grimlock shouts as he use the bat to break the door. He keeps hitting it and hitting it. As he did the people start backing away, going to car three. Tarn is watching closely, hoping the glass doesn't break. It then cracks. As that is going on, Optimus and Tron are holding back the zombies. Kronika is hugging Bee, protecting him. There are too many. Tron looks back to them.

"What's the hold up!' he shouts. Optimus is also getting tired. Tron is trying to close the door now, hoping to keep the zombies from entering. Optimus hitting them, trying to get the door close. Tron tries his best to keep the zombies away. They are gathering up too fast, at this rate they can outpower them, and go through. Soundwave goes back to help Prime and Tron. He hits some zombies, but Tron isn't strong enough to close it. Grim shouts as the glass breaks. He goes through. As he runs to the back door of carr three, Tarn closes the door on him. Luckily he reaches in time. He gets slam by the door on his chest. He cries out in pain. He uses his strength to try to open the door. He gets it wide enough for at least one person to cross. He turns to Kronika "GO!' He shouts. She nods and helps Bee go through it. He makes it, and he helps Kronika next. Grimlock gets hit making him shift a little. His shoulder is now getting crush. Magnus goes to help him, making sure his shoulder doesn't get crush even more.

"Let them In!" Kronika shouts. She jumps to Tarn and tries to wrestle him. He let's go of the door. Grimlock opens it. Magnus runs in. He tries to stop the others who are trying to close the door. Grimlock looks behind him.

"HURRY!' he shouts.

Optimus turns around. He looks at Tron and Soundwave "Come on...in three...two...one!' he hits the zombie one more time. Tron let's go and starts running. Soundwave runs but his ankle twists. He crumbles down. Optimus and Tron make it to car three. He turns to see Soundwave limping to the car. Optimus gasps as he sees a zombies right behind him. He runs to try to help him. He hits zombies one by one. He turns around to see they are close but one zombie is close to entering the car three. Optimus grabs the zombie and thows him aisde. He looks back to look for Soundwave, but there are three zombies heading his way. He is to stop them, but there is too many. He looks back to hear Tron shouting at him. Optimus sighs "Close the do-" Soundwave shoves him to car three. He tackles the zombies. Tron grabs Optimus and drags him to safety.

"CLOSE THE DOOR!" Soundwave shouts

"NOO WAIT!" Prime gets up but the zombies get him. "NOOO!"

Soundwave smiles at someone, telling him that everything is okay. He then goes crashing down, getting swallowed by the zombies.

"NOOOOO!" Optimus turns to see someone shouting at him. He then realize it. His brother, Shockwave. "BROTHER!" Tron closes the door.

The men crash down to the floor, trying to catch their breath.

Optimus cries out in anger. "Damn IT!" he cries. He gets up and pace back and forth. He sees Tarn who is standing there with anger. Optimus grabs him and punches him across the face.

"WHY?!' We could've save him!" Prime shouts. Tarn punches his gut. He goes to punch Tarn again, hitting him on the face. Tarn shoves him away. Prime sighs, no point in fighting. Grimlock sees his two buddies, well not anymore. He punches both of them. They start fighting.

"What the HELL

Val shouts at them. "ENOUGH!"

Tarn gets up, whipping his nose "They are infected! Get them out of here!"

"YES THEY ARE!' Bulk and Wheel shout

Grim looks at them with disbelief.

"Get them out of HERE!" Bulk shouts

"Yeah get them out!' the people start shouting at them. Optimus hugs Bee tight, making sure he doesn't hear the chants, the shouts. He picks him up.

"Fine we will go..." Optimus says. "We will go to car Two."

Grimlock shakes his head. He starts to go first. He looks back at them. He wishes he can hurt them more, how dare they betray him. He knows they want to survive but this...this. He sighs, there is nothing he can do now. Tarn shoves Prime shouting at him to be gone. Optimus walks after Grim. Tron hugs Kronika and follows Prime. Magnus gets up and walks after them. He stops when he sees Shockwave staring at the door. They can see the zombies trying to get in. Magnus kneels in front of him. "Your brother...saved us. He was a good man"

"Thank you" Shockwave whispers. Magnus nods and he goes to meet with the rest.

The pack goes to car two. The people close the door on them. Optimus goes into car two. Luckily it's empty. He goes in, waits for the others. He then closes the door. He looks at Megatron. He finds clothe from bags, even magazines. He nods as they start to get the door close. They are safe here. They start covering the door, and even tying up the door. So no one can come in. Optimus tightens a knot, he stares blankly at the door. No one can get in or out. He hopes the ride to home, is easier. He goes to sit down, and Bee sits next to him. Megatron is already sitting down, holding Kronika close. Magnus is standing at the front, looking out the window. Grimlock walks up to Prime, he looks at him with sad eyes. Optimus smiles, telling him everything is okay. He opens up his arms, and Grimlock jumps in to hug him. Bee looks at them, he gets up and goes to hug the two. Prime moves a little, so he can hug them both, keeping them safe.

Shockwave is still staring at the door. He sees Soundwave, trying to get in. He walks to the door. He looks at him. Soundwave is no more, it's nothing but an empty human. The dead, but there is no one. Shockwave doesn't see life in those eyes. They were unseperable. They did everything together. They work together, build a company together. Now, he doesn't know what to do. He looks back to see Soundwave again. Shockwave stands up to walk to the door. He grabs the knob. He slides the door open.


the zombies come barging in. As the door slides, the herd breaks it.

what's next...
