Hurry...dad needs help Bee shouts. The soldiers run after him.
Chapter 5
"Optimus watch OUT!" Grim shouts. Optimus brace for impact but nothing happen. Tarn is shaking, he is twitching. He drops the axe, runs to the control he stops the train. Luckily, they stop right at the station. The others are staring blankly at Tarn. He is walking around, like he just lost his head. He is starting to limp, he can't seem to stand straight now. Prime notice it, his skin, going pale, purple, red, blue vains going up to his head.
"He's infected' Prime whispers "Stay back...don't say a word"
He starts shaking more, as he goes to try to leave the train. He turns around to see the others, all are staring at him with fear.
"What...what is happening?" he says "I...I..don't know what I..."
They all stay silent, none want to talk, none of them want to help. Even if they can, it's too late.
"Tell me...what is happening to me!" he shouts. He starts running away from the others. He stops in front of another train. This train is full of the undead. He stares at them, he doesn't feel nothing, he is slowly losing his mind. "What is..."he looks at his hands. He turns around to see Prime helping the others get off the train. He turns back to see Tarn limping towards him. He is crying now, he is begging Prime to help him. "What is happening...I'm getting cold"
"You are infected...you are turning" Prime answers "Nothing we can do."
"But..I can't be...I have to survive, we are almost home!' he shouts "I'm so close, I can't die"
"Sorry. But looks like this is the end for you" Prime says
"Go to hell" Kronika says. She is glaring at him. "you deserve to suffer like them"
"Wait...wait..no no" he then stops. "If I die...everyone DOES!" he runs to the other train. Optimus watches him closely and he gasps. The train. It's full of zombie.
"WAIT TARN! NO!" Optimus screams at him. Tarn turns towards him, opens the door. He runs up to Prime to stand right in from of him. Optimus shakes his head "He is gone"
He is staring blankly at the two. His eyes, no longer have life, his body pale, he is gone. Nothing but a dead body. The undead. He growls as he dashes to them. Prime stops him from reaching the others. He starts fighting Tarn. He tries to keep his mouth away from his body, or anywhere. He twirls them around, and tosses him aside. Tarn rolls around, he gets up quickly, he runs to Optimus again. Prime grabs him and slams him down to the ground. Prime keeps punching him, how can he kill him. He hears a thud, the zombies from the train are trampling each other, which gives Prime eough time to shout at the others.
"RUN! Go get help!" Prime shouts.
"NO We are not leaving you!' Grim shouts
"GOO! I will hold them off! Go NOW!' Prime shouts. He is not going to let them get to his family. "The soldiers...they will be here...go for help!"
kronika drags Grim to follow her. Bee is right in front of him.
He keeps him down, he looks around, trying to figure out a way to kill him. Optimus hears a twist around, breaking his body to get out of Prime's hold. He let's go and runs away from Tarn. Prime goes inside the train, he picks up the axe. "Damn it!'
Kronika, Grim and Bee start running out the station. Bee grabs a flag, they can use it to wave at them. Bee is ahead of the two. Grim stops, as he turns back. Optimus isn't behind them, he is not catching up. He decides to go back. Kronika stops to notice Grim staring back at the train. She stands next to him.
"Grim.." she says
"We have to help" Grimlock says he is still in danger. Kronika nods. She looks down to find shields and nightsticks on the ground. "We can use these" Grim picks up the two. He runs back to help Prime.
"Bee...keep going. We are going to help your dad"
Bee nods as he goes outside. He sighs in relief. He sees soldiers already running to him. He keeps waving his flag, hoping more can come and help. He comes to a stop, when he sees her. He cries out, he feels the wieght lift off, he feels like everything will be okay now.
"Mom" he says. He feels her hug him tight. He hugs her back. He cries into her, holding for dear life, just like she is right now. He won't let go, he is finally with his mom. He can feel, that he is safer now. Help is here, they are home. They did it, they made it. Elita leans back to look at him.
"I'm so glad you are okay" she cries "Thank Primus"
Bee nods.
"Where is your dad?" she says
"Dad needs help...let's go" Bee drags her by the arm. He leads to where the train is at. But before they can make it, zombies are crawling all over the place. Elita sees two people, trying their best to fight the zombies. She hugs Bee tight.
The general is right behind them. He looks at the sight. He growls, he thought the zombies are trap on the train. Who open them, who let these creatures out. "Soldiers...!' He gives his command. The soldiers start shooting, hitting every single one. Luckily this group are good at aiming. All are hitting the target right on point. They are advancing, eliminating every single of them.
Grim stops when the zombies are going down. He turns back to see a group running towards him. All are shooting, moving their way to whipe them out. Kronika goes down to her knees, and she takes a deep breath. She thought it will never end. There are so many, she couldn't go any further. Grim and her try so hard to get to Prime, but the zombies, all in their way. They couldn't break through.
"You two with me" General shouts.
"No...Optimus is still over there" Grim shouts "You have to help him. Loads of zombies are attacking him.
"Soldiers...keep moving, one more is still out there" he shouts.
Elita heart is beating fast. Optimus is still there, he is here too. That means he made too. Her boys are home now, just one more step closer. She hopes they are not too late. She follows the group.
Prime keeps swinging his axe. He cuts everysingle one. He turns around to see Tarn jumping at him. He goes down, he place the handle of the axe on Tarn's jaw. He groans as he tries to push him back. Optimus gets his foot, right on Tarn's chest, he kicks him off. Tarn rolls over to the rails. As Prime did, he sees another zombie crawling to him. he rolls over. He gets up and cuts the zombie head off. He does it to every one of them. He is getting tired, he can't take this. He gets on the train. He closes the door. He is trap, he slides down to take a breath. He hopes the others got help. He really hopes Bee is safe now. He hears a thud, Prime eyes widen. He also hears guntshots.
"GET them!' he hears. Optimus sighs in releif, help is here. He can now take it easy. Once the shooting stops, he hears a knock. He gets up to open the door. Grim is standing there, looking at him with worry. Grim smiles wide and jumps to hug him tight. Optimus hugs him tight.
"I'm okay Grim..I'm all good" he says
"That's good..." he cries. Prime rubs his back.
"Come on...Let's get out of here"
Grimlock let's go and he gets off the train, Prime following him.
"Everyone scout the area...make sure we didn't miss one" the general shouts.
Prime sees Kronika, she also has a worry look on her face. He just hugs her. He tells her that he is okay. He is glad that it is all over. She hugs him back. Prime hears his kid.
"Dad!' Prime looks to him, and he smiles wide. He then gasps as he sees his love. She is standing next to Bee. He smiles as he runs to his family. He hugs the both tight. Prime moves to look Elita in the eyes.
"Elita...you are okay" he cries "Thank Primus...i'm so glad...I was so worried...I was..."
"Shh...shhh...we are okay" she says "You are here now. We are together. we are safe"
"Elita...I missed you so much..." he kisses her. In the kiss he gives her his love. He tells her, that all is good.
"Come on...Let's head back" the general says
Prime leans back to look at the two. He nods "let's go..."
The group start walking back. Prime is hugging Elita tight to him as they walk. Grimlock and Kronika are right in front of them, leading the way. Bee turns back to look at his parents, with a big smile. Optimus returns the smile but in a flash it disappears. "BEE!" Prime dashes to him.
Bee goes down, when he feels a hand on his foot. He turns around to see Tarn crawling his way up. Bee tries his best to defend himself but Tarn is too strong. He opens his mouth wide, he goes down to bite down Bee's arm. Prime wraps his arms around Tarn, stopping him from bitting Bee. Elita grabs Bee, helping him up. She drags him away from Tarn.
"SHOOT IT!" the general shouts.
"We can't we might hit the man" one says the others try. Prime is fighting Tarn, struggling to get free. Prime picks him up, and slams him down. Prime rolls out of the way. "NOW!" One shoots him down. Prime gets up, and he stops, he stares at them. Elita opens her arms.
"It's okay..." she says
"No..." Prime whispers
"What...what...your okay..." Elita looks at Bee. She checks him, nothing, he is clear "Bee is fine. You save him. You..." Elita runs to Prime. She checks him, her heart sinks. Elita is staring at Optimus's hand.
"He got me" he whispers "I thought...he wouldn't reach me..but he turn his head, and bite me"
There is a bite mark right on his thumb area. Elita shakes her head "No...that's not...no...no..it can't be"
"I'm sorry Elita..." he whispers
"Help him!' Elita shouts "Please...do something" she looks at the general, he doesn't say nothing. He just looks at her, saying there is nothing they can do, other than.
"We can...you know. Before he turns to one of them" one says. The general smacks his head. He sighs, he is right.
"NOO! There's got to be a way" she cries "Please...there's got to be another way!'
Optimus tries to hold his tears. He is trying to focus, he can't turn now. Not when everyone is here. He looks at Grimlock.
"You will be okay Grim" he says "Make sure...you take care of my family"
Grim nods, but his heart is aching. He goes down to his knees and starts crying. "NO NO NO NO!" Grimlock shouts "Not like this!" Optimus kneels in front of him. He hugs him tight.
"You will be okay" Prime whispers. He leans back, he walks to hugs her too "Promise...to stay by her side. You two need each other. You two can heal together" Kronika nods. She leans back to look at him one more time. She can see him, he is slowly changing. He turns around to walk up to Bee.
"You will fight everyday. I know you will grow into a strong young man" Prime says "I love you..so much" Prime hugs him. He gets up and looks at one soldier.
"Dad...wait" Bee cries "We can help you...please..."
One soldier nods in understanding. He picks up Bee, he takes him away.
"NO let me GOO!' he cries "NO DAD! DAD! DAAAD! WAIT...WAIT! Let me go. My dad NEEDS ME!' He is out of sight. Prime starts twitching. He turns to Elita.
"Please no. You are home. You made it. Why...why!' she cries. Prime hugs her.
"I love you" he whispers in her ear "I want you to live for me. I want you to look after Grimlock and Bee. Together, you guys will grow stronger, together ya'll can look at the future.
He shoves her back. He starts back away from her. Elita runs to him but gets stop by Kronika.
"WAIT BABY! DOn't go! Not you! NOT YOU!' she cries "Please...don't GO!"
"Take her away!' He shouts "Don't let her see me like this"
Kronika turns her around. She doesn't want Elita see him turn. What's worse, the general is already aiming the gun at Prime. His eyes are turning white, his body, now pale. As he is turning, he is smiling, and tears are going down his face.
...
"Ouch ouch oucH" Prime says. He just got hit by a motorscooter. What are the odds.
"I'm sorry..." she says. She works his cut. "i'm Elita by the way. Elita One"
"I'm Optimus Prime" he says.
"Nice to meet you" she smiles
"You too" he smiles back. "So..um...where were you headed" he winces when she touches his cut again.
"Here...this is where I work" she says "I woke up late, so I was dashing here"
"I was late too" Prime says "I had an interview with Mr One. The owner of CyberBuild. But now I guess...I won't get the job"
"Mr one...Cyberbuild...he is my uncle.." she says "Don't worry...I will explain everything...I'm sure he will give you another chance"
Optimus smiles
...
"I love you" Prime says. He is looking at her. She is in a wedding dress. She is so beautiful. He is in tears, she is going to spend the rest of her life with him. He is looking forward to every single day with her. He says his I do, she says it back. The two share a kiss. The crowd cheering, the bells ringing, the birds singing. It was the most amazing, perfect day. Prime takes her away. He dances with her, their wedding song. He twirls her, and kisses her. "I love you"
Prime lays her down. He can't take his eyes off her. He leans down to kiss her, marking her, letting her know that she is now his. He makes love to her. The night goes on, Prime is snuggling close to Elita. He kisses her temple. "I love you"
...
"I'm pregnant!" she cheers
Prime stares at her in shock. He smiles wide but then, he faints. She gasps as she sees him hit the ground with a thud.
"Oh MY!" she says. She goes down to help him.
...
"Beautful baby boy" says the doctor
Prime smiles as the little goes into Elita's arms. She looks at him with so much love. Prime smiles at the two. He loves them both so much now, he cant believe he can feel anything like this. He kisses Elita, and he kisses the little's ones hand.
"Bumblebee" she whispers
...
Prime is looking at Bee. He is growiing up so fast. He always spend time with his family, Elita is off on weekends. They all get to go out, and have fun. There are other times, when they stay in, and watch movies together. Prime is standing in his living. He sees little Bee crawling around the house. He blinks to see Bee is now taking his first step, he blinks, Bee is now saying his first words. Prime blinks again, he sees Elita dancing with Bee in her arms. She turns around, and Bee is now on her feet, dancing with her. She twirls him around, he is now up to her waist, learning how to dance. He is now ten. Prime blinks to see the sky going dark. He sighs. He looks at his family again. He sees the Bee is helping his mother, he blinks, he is helping others with their chores. Grimlock is right next to him, helping him too. Bee goes out one door, and comes back the other. He is wearing a cap and gown. Elita is hugging Bee tight, next to them is Grimlock, who is wearing a uniform, from the army. Kronika is the one taking a photo of the three. Optimus smiles wide, his sons, all grown up. Bee and Grimlock, grown men, strong, and determine to move forward. Optimus blinks, Bee and Grim are standing in front of him. Bee looks twenty, while Grim looks twenty-six. "You can let go dad" Bee says "We will be okay" "Don't worry about us...we will see you again' Grimlock says. Bee and Grimlock go to hug him. Prime hugs the two, but both disappear before he does. Optimus is smiling wide, his tears, flowing down gently. He closes his eyes, the world goes very bright, and he is gone.
...
"It's done" the general says as he lowers his gun. He turns around. He orders the others to follow him, time to get back. Elita is hugging Kronika tight, she is shouting, cursing. Kronika cries with her, she knows how it feels to see your love one go. Elita escapes her hold, she runs to where Prime is. She stops, she sees him, lifeless, he is really gone. She wants to see him, to get close. Kronika stops her. She drags her away from the area. Kronika makes her follow the others. Grimlock is hugging Bee close to him. They are silent as they follow on way home.
The group is drinking water, and eating the lunch they got. Elita is staring at the ground, she is numb. She barely touch her food. She doesn't feely anything. She is not hungry, thristy, tired, nothing, she feels nothing. She doesn't even feel mad, or angry. She feels all her emotions went away with Optimus. She doesn't want to feel anything anymore.
"Mom..." she turns to see Bee. He is offering her a doesn't take it, or even answer him. All she did is stare blankly at Bee. He has Optimus's eyes, he is so much like his father. "Mom...I know you are hurting, but I am hurting too" he says "We lost him mom...we lost him" he breaks down. She blinks, reality is now hitting her. She looks at Bee, who is on his knees, crying for his father.
"Bee..." she whispers. She gets down to hug him tight. "I know. We did."
"Is it...because of me..." he whispers
"What...?' she gasp
"If I would've seen Tarn...He wouldn't have surprise me..and dad didn't have to come and save me..." he cries "He will still be alive if I was paying atttention"
"STOP IT!" she says "You did nothing wrong. You had no idead. No one is at fault"
"But..but...'
"Your dad...will protect you from all" she says "He would do it all over again, if it means that you will be okay. I would've done the same thing"
Elita hugs Bee tight. She starts rocking him, soothing him. The minutes pass, and Bee is sleeping in her arms. She is staring blankly at the wall in front of her. She sees someone sit in front of her.
"I'm Grimlock" he says "Optimus saved my life"
She smiles "Hello Grimlock, I'm Elita"
He smiles back "I owe him my life..." he says "I...I...couldn't save him"
"Shhh...not you too" she says "I'm just glad he had a friend like you..." she goes to hold his hand "I heard him say to take care of his family...welcome to the family Grimlock"
Grimlock nods and he cries out. Elita moves Bee a little, and she gets a free spot for Grimlock. He leans in to cuddle next to her. She hugs the two, and slowly drifts to sleep.
Elita and Kronika are helping set the table up. The two have been living together for five years now. It's been five long years since the pandemic, since the breakout. Since the whole virus, the undead, all of that happen. The two grew very close together, just like sisters. The two were there for each other, helping, healing, talking if must. The two help with the boys, practically raising the two. The town is now more open. The other cites are slowly being built. The undead, the zombies are all burn down. All are ashes. The government are working hard to clean out the cites, the other towns. They still need more time, five isn't enough. The virus hasn't start again. The virus is gone, the fire burning it all away. The fire, is burning all of it away.
The ladies hear the door opening. Elita smiles at the two boys who are walking in.
"Man I'm tired.." Grimlock says "too much work...too much'
"Oh come on. It wasn't that bad"
"Hey...all you did was drive the goods...' he says
"It's still hard work" Bee says.
The two walk into the kitchen to see the two.
"Hey Auntie" both say to Kronika
Grimlock gives a hug to Elita "Hey mom"
"Hey big guy...' she smiles
Bee waits for his turn. He hugs his mom "Hey mom"
"My baby boy..." she kisses his cheek.
"Aa mom" Bee says.
She gives a shrug "How was work?'
"Tiring.." both says
She laughs along with Kronika. "my poor boys" Elita says. "But don't worry...we cooking your favorite dish..."
"Oh right!' the two cheer.
"But first...go shower"
"AHh mom...I'm hungry" Grim says
"Can we eat first then...shower" Bee says
"Boys...You heard your mother. If you don't go up to shower in three seconds..." Kronika says "One..."
Bee shoves Grimlock out of the way. The two race upstairs to shower.
Kronika laughs along with Elita "Works everytime" Kronika smirks
It is nighttime, the boys are sleeping in their rooms. The ladies are sitting at the table drinking their late night coffee. The two are sharing stories about their day. The two are both nurses, who are still attending the injure. As it turns out, there are lot more people alive still out there. The soldiers bring them in to safety, the two get straight to work. The two only work in the morning, they don't want to work the nighttime, the dark scares them, for the same reason. They are afraid of being alone, just like the dark.
Kronika looks at Elita, she is so thankful to her. She welcome her to home, to her family. They are now one big family. She was there when she cries for Megatron. Of course, Kronika is there when Elita remembers Optimus. The two, one day at at time, heal together. The still have that pain, the emptiness in their hearts, but they learn to live with it. It is not as heavy as it was the day they lost the love of their life. Once they finish their coffee, the two went up to bed. They have the day off the next morning. They can sleep in. The two walk into a room, to see two beds next to each other. They decided to share a room. At first because they didn't want to be alone. Sleeping in a empty bed, is too much. They won't be able to sleep at all. As the years go by, they got use to it, they don't even bother to talk about moving to another room. Bee and Grimlock are also sharing a room. Elita got twin beds for the two. Bee sleep on the one on top, while Grim takes the bottom.
Elita snuggles into her bed. Kronika does as well. The two turn off their lamp.
"Goodnight"
The night goes on, the clock ticking, the moon high above the trees. It is silent, the night is calm. Until the family wake up suddenly. All run to the windows, looking out into the night. The noise, they wish they never hear.
"The train" Bee whispers
"I know"Grimlock says. As all the memories come flooding back to them.
The train sounds its horn, alarming the others. Letting the station know, they are close by. To clear the area. The trains are the first transportation, other than cars to be working again. The planes, and buses are still down. The goes pass San Pax, away from it's destination.
Kronika is hugging herself, as she sees the train roll by. Elita hugs her, comforting her.
"It's over Sis..." she says "We are okay"
Kronika nods "I know...but still. The train ride home...was a nightmare. I'm so glad it's over"
Elita nods. She hugs her again. She won't be able to understand how she feels. She was never on a train.
"Let's get some sleep" Elita says
Kronika nods. The two go back to bed.
"Come on Bee...we can't stay up all night...or else auntie...will beat us up"
Bee nods. The two go back to bed as wel.. The family slowly drifts to sleep. This time, no nightmares, just bright dreams, for the future. The future that will soon be great. The world will be back to normal...not yet, maybe not ever...but soon.
The train passes by the town. It disappears into the night. The night is now silent again. The train no longer being heard. The train has a destination.
The train is going home.
The end. The story is base of Train to Busan. I've change it up a little, but same story.
I don't own anything...
