"Get down here Sentinel!" Daddy roared up at him after he had destroyed the copula.
"Optimus you forget your place!" He berated back as he readied his double sword but his shield he pulled together was smaller than the original one that we took from him. Sentinel jumped down using his sword to slow his descent by plunging it into the building and sliding all the way down. "I bring you Cybertron, your home, and still you choose humanity," he spat.
"You were the one who taught me freedom is everyone's right!" he contradicted deploying his sword and ax. With a mighty war cry, Daddy charged Sentinel. Prime parried Sentinel's big sword and used his own to stab the Decepticon Prime in the shoulder bouncing him off a building destroying the brickwork.
"I will retrigger that pillar!" Sentinelyelled as he met both of my Daddy's melee weapons with his own. They were nose to nose
"Then you'll have to go through ME!" daddy retaliated back. Daddy was then pushed back by a foot to the midsection with a grunt he rolled.
Sam and Mikaela and I could see them fighting from behind some rubble of a building we'd taken shelter behind away from the bus stop. "I gotta try and help," Sam stated like a fact to Mikaela.
"Then I go with you" she countered. It was between this conversation I slipped from my pack on Mika's back.
"But what about…" Sam started
"I go to have to" I asserted interrupting him.
"You can't we've gotta…" I shook my head at Mikaela.
"Sammy, Mika you do piwer, I go do too." They looked at me. Then didn't want to leave me. "You be fast with no me piwer need bof of you." The looked at each other and then me on last time and they both hugged me.
"You be safe Steele," Mika offered.
"You be okay or your dad is gonna kill us," Sam gulped. I laughed and then turned serious.
"Huwy afor Gould get it." That spurred them on and with one last look back they were running. I saw Sam and Mikaela hop and run over two burning cars and then slide under another and lost sight of them.
Then I heard it "All ships that are left, fire at Optimus!" And I knew there were some left in reserve. I also knew now that the ships were probably pinning down daddy and the rest of the bots were making an attempt to engage Sentinel and then run knowing he was a powerful fighter. But they wanted to keep him off Daddy. I heard the next order. "Decepticons restart that PIllar!" It was time to go.
The incoming tomahawks I knew would shoot down the last of the ships. That is when I started my trek towards Megatron's reclining form. The whole world seemed to be on fire or blowing u around me but I crawled quickly to my target not looking behind me. In an alley sat Megatronand I walked a little then stumbled and started to crawl again. I was cursing my body as it seemed to still need time for me to walk for more than a short distance. They were getting longer slowly but right now would have been nice to walk rather than crawl into the lion's den.
Right before Megatron took off his hood I heard and felt the pillar start up again but knew it would be short-lived. As I moved closer Megatron put his head back against the building and reverently and quietly vented "At last." I had t crawl under a pile of cars and debris coming out right in front of him and he looked down at me. "Ah Primes sparkling how interesting," he spoke with a purr in his vocal processor soft and almost peaceful. "Have you come to jion the Decepticons?"
I clambered up high on the junk next to his left side, "Worth it?" I asked him calmly.
"Obviously," He grunted back.
"You bringed back Sentel. An he crunched you head and not like you. He more power than you now," I looked up at Megatron saying "it sad."
He turned sharply to me. I didn't flinch. I was channeling my adult side covering my fear but not letting it show in my speech. "You dare say such things as a sparkling? What do you know."
"You Cons getting planet but Sentel give orders," I argued.
His face turned to me coming close "Do you say he is in charge, It is ME it will always be ME."
I just stared him down as he did me and I was unmoved by his face so close to me. So my final parting words were much like Carly's in the move from a different lifetime, "An when Sentle wins in minit you be Sentle's Bitch." He roared and came at me with his right hand and I sat fearlessly as he reached halfway and then he froze thinking then turned to look out over the battle. Daddy and Sentinel were still and the humans and other bots were getting shots in. I coils see this as I started to slide down off the wreckage and watched from the alley.
The Autobots and the soldiers were getting Sentinel so much that he tried to get into his altform and drive away. However, Daddy ran to Sentinel and stabbed him with his big energon sword in his middle when he tried to transform again. Then DAddy missed a swing and Sentinel got out from under him. Sentinel was still full of bluster and bravado as he told Daddy, "Optimus always the bravest of us," there was a but coming I could sense it. He turned to pull his shield upland Dad pounded twice against it and then sunk his sword again into his gut. The shield was to small to cover everywhere like the one in the movie I remembered. It looked like Jazz's only without the points at the end of it. Daddy hammered him so hard on that shield he got bent over in front of Daddy and Daddy's sword slide home into his shoulder and he tore it sideways. Sentinel's arm was hanging by wires unusable. With a loud grown Sentinel pulled up and then rebuked my Daddy, "You could never make the hard decisions," and then he jumped off the bridge's railing and tried to come down on my Daddy but he blocked with his ax and tried to stab him again but Sentinel blocked it with his sword. They blocked each other the times but Sentinel got in a lucky hit on Daddy's sword and knocked it out of his hand. "Our planet will survive!" Sentinel yelled at Dad. But daddy still had both of his arms and he hammered at Sentinel dual-wielding his ax and almost cut him from his head to his spark. Sentinel couldn't perry the swing all the way and it the ax slid down his double sword and into his hip joint/middle it tore at vital systems and the armor from his hip.
This was when Megatron came out of nowhere shotting Sentinel in the gut twice and once more making the one-armed Sentinel move away from Dad and try to run. Megatron was faster though and grabbed him pulling him around to the other side of the bridge and curb-stomping his head armor off then ripping him up by the scruff bar. Condemning him, "THis is MY planet," he punched Sentinel in the head and grabbed at his midsection for more vital parts and his claws in and pulled out a chunk of stuff from his left side the same place Dad's ax had hit. Megatron then had him by the front plating literally just hanging by his talons near his neck. But the sound of the master pillar shutting off and Cybertron going still for a moment caught Megatron's attention and then it began to whirl in on itself to go back to where it had been.
As he held Sentinel he was speaking to my Dad, "we need a truck. All I want is to be back in charge. Besides, who would you be without me Prime?"
"Time to find out!" And DAddy grabbed up his energon ax and brutally crunched it right into his chest and into his spark. Then with both hands took it and jumped and caught the edge of Megatrons ching with the tip of the ax then slicing up it into his head almost cleaving it in half and he kept pulling ripping it off with some of his spinal neural net dangling from the edges. The head hit the ground and two eyes of Megatron went out forever.
After taking care of Megatron, Sentinel was still on all fours crawling along the bridge. Optimus looked at his back in revulsion. And picked up his gun from the ground. Sentinel finally spoke, "Optimus, all I ever wanted was the survival of our race. You must see why I had to betray you," as sentinel was collecting his wits he started to turn around, Daddy readied his gun.
"You didn't betray me," and Sentinel could hear the gun being warmed up, "you betrayed yourself," Daddy brought his gun up with a whirring noise.
"Optimus, NO!" but anything else was cut short as he shot him in the spark and then once more in his head and his neural net was fried. Daddy then threw down the gun in disgust. He pulled himself up to full height as the soldiers went to him on the bridge, human and Autobot alike. Sam and Mikaela got out of Bumblebee and Prime nodded to them. He noticed, however, I wasn't with them. He searched around quickly looking from the Autobots to the Soldiers and not seeing me. I sent a surge of love and peace down the bond before he could get worked up now that his battle protocols had been let down. His head swiveled 180 and barely saw me poking my head out of the alley.
He walked over the gathering soldiers and my pink mom came from the other side of the bridge in a run. He picked me up and shuffled me to his spark as did my mom once she got there. It was just a quick glimpse but both were strong but a lot worse for wear. I gave each one a big hug and it felt like I was finally unburdened about this fight at least. I was put in the crook of my father's arm with my mom following a step behind as Daddy made his way to the crowd. "Thank you, my friends, with you this day would not have been won. But the cooperation between our races has saved yours from being enslaved by Sentinel and Megatron!" Everyone cheered even me he knew just what to say and how. Soon we were all called back to the Autobot base for repairs and debriefing (and you know how much I looooooved that).
