The Final Stretch.
All right guys.... probably the final fluffy chapter for a while. We'll find out some more in depth details in the next chapter.
This one's a long chapter and sorry if there's any spelling errors. I didn't feel like rereading it tonight. Lol ^^'
Enjoy!~
The sun was setting and the group made it to the golden building that use to be the Hall of Relics. However, it was only a remnant of the once former glorious buliding.
Blurr had Lily in his servos as darkness crept over the silent planet. It use to be filled with so much noise and now that it was quiet, it frightened Blurr.
"We cannot do anything in the dark. Even with our lights. For now, let us rest." Optimus said and everyone began to camp out.
~~~~
Blurr and Lily were having a hard time slipping into recharge. Lily's fear of monsters lurking in the dark bled through the bond like a sponge soaking up water.
Soundwave appeared and sat next to Blurr. "Hey Soundwave..." The younger bot whispered.
Soundwave turned his helm acknowledging that he was listening.
"I don't know if you remember, but could you.... never mind." Blurr sighed watching his sparkling toss and turn in his servo.
"Both: Restless. Requesting..... you were requesting something." Soundwave's normal voice pattern changed and it made Blurr look to the full faced visor.
Nodding his helm, "yes. I remember on nights I was restless, you'd sing a verse of something to me. Though I don't remember and I believe your singing was horrible." Blurr chuckled, giving the purple bot a small shove with his empty servo.
Soundwave stared at him and the Elite Guardsmen looked to the night sky. "It was just nostalgia memories acting up." He said closing his optics and tried to rest.
A click echoed softly in the silent night and Blurr opened an optic to see Soundwave removing his visor, revealing his face. "You are afraid of what will happen?"
"Yes." Blurr answered. "Are you afraid?"
Soundwave didn't reply right away but his optics spoke with the emotion that filled them. "It is difficult to answer. However, if it's concern that you inquire about, then yes."
Blurr smiled. "At least I'm not alone."
~~~
Lily was having trouble sleeping and tossed in her sires hands. It certainly didnt help that Soundwave and Blurr were talking. She was about to snap at them for being loud but they stopped suddenly.
'....... great, now it's too quiet.' She thought.
"Do not speak of this to anyone." Soundwave said. The silence was louder than ever now, but it disapeared when he... started singing.
"Sleep.."
His voice was soft and held a low pitch with his nearly monotonous voice.
"For night is com-ing to your dreams..."
Lily felt warmth and love through the bond. Both from Blurr and Soundwave.
"Day...
Will be there when you wake..."
Lily's eyes began to grown heavy.
"And I...."
All her worries and fears dissapeared.
"Will be there by your side....
So sleep..."
Darkness took the girls mind and she fell into a fitful slumber.
"Dear brother-of mine..."
Blurr looked to Soundwave, optics wide and mouth agape. He leaned forwards and rested his helm against his brothers elongated arm. A sign of affection.
"After all this is over, I want it to be like the days when we were younglings - but we'll have a home and a stable job. I'll work for our fuel and other things."
Soundwave turned and looked down to his younger brother. Mixed emotions filled his spark and guilt ate away at him. "Working: Unnecessary."
"You've done so much. You deserve to rest and to do what you want, besides I don't mind working." Soundwave reached to Blurr's face, making them look each other in the optics.
Soundwave brushed a slender didget over the Decepticon brand. "I regret alot of my actions." He said, looking down and pulling his servo away. Standing, Soundwave looked up to Cybertron's moons, where the Nemisis resided.
"We all regret alot of things, but Soundwave." Blurr said seriously, earning the ex-Decepticons optics his way. "Don't ever regret trying to do what's right." Soundwave looked away, thinking about what was said.
Blurr was about to slip into recharge again but stopped.
Soundwave was smiling softly. His gray face brought out his optics. They were like the night sky that seemed to bleed with his armor. As if he himself, were part of the universe.
The last time Blurr remembered such an action, was when he last saw him before his processor was wiped.
~~~~~
Morning came and Lily stretched in her sires servo. Seeing that he was still asleep, she bounced off his form and started to walk towards the small camp they had where the others recharged.
Soundwave was currently missing, how he was still wake was beyond the girl. He'd been up later than she had, but then she remembered that they can go days without rest.
Sighing she walked in the middle of all the bots on the ground, resting. "Bunch of lazy bums." She grumbled, stomach growling for food.
The suns rays made the fallen gold building shine and glitter. Smiling, Lily abandoned the camp and left to explore.
":Lily.:" The teen turned around suddenly. Seeing none other than Primus's holoform standing behind her.
"W-what?.... How is it possible?" She breathed.
":Return to the group. It's dangerous if they find you here.:" Primus glanced around and took a step to Lily but she suddenly backed away.
Anger filled her, "You're the dangerous one." She stated.
Primus stopped, his eyes wide. "What does that mean?"
Lily balled her fist, gritting her teeth. "You!" She seethed, pointing an accusing finger at him. "You killed my mother! She was afraid of you!"
Primus scowled suddenly, "You have no idea as to what your talking about! She was not or ever was in danger."
"Then why was she running from you?!" Lily screamed. It was suddenly growing hot and sweaty in her suit.
~~~
Blurr flinched awake and looked about him to discover that his sparkling wasn't with him.
"Lily!?" He called but she was... gone.
"Lily!" The sire yelled louder, alerting the others to his distress.
Suddenly, anger, hate and betrayal crashed into him. It was his sparklings, and it was strong.
:Lily, where are you?:
~~~~
Lily heard her father through the bond but ignored him.
"She had no right to do what she did." Primus said evenly.
The human saw red flash across her vision. "SHE HAD EVERY RIGHT BECAUSE SHE WAS MY MOTHER!!!" She screamed.
Feeling her father's panicked state mixing with with her anger, the two emotions merging; it was going to drive her to do something stupid.
"You're the one who had no right!" She charged, intended to punch Primus in the face but she went through his body and fell to the ground.
~~~
Everyone was up now and looking for the girl, but Blurr's spark was feeling crushed and enraged.
Why was Lily angry? Why wasn't she responding to him?
Blurr hissed through his vents, emitting steam. His struts were tight and wirings tense. He couldn't think straight.
:I sware I'll hit him!: He heard Lily's anger. It was strong and because she accepted his presence, Blurr was able to pinpoint her exact location with the bond.
Quickly he transwarped.
~~~
Primus didn't mean for this to happen but as he tried to explain, the girl kept spouting nonsense at him. Her anger towards the misunderstanding, was most likely on par with Unicrons.
"Lily, your mother is within you and safe, I was never intending on hurting her or anything of the sort." Primus tried to speak.
"SHUT UP!!!!" He saw her face. It was filled with sorrow and anger, streaked with tears.
Suddenly, blue energon swirled around her petite frame and out appeared Blurr. Primus's last vassel.
Except, his optics held nothing but hatred and his body language was menacing. The Decepticon brand only added more to his menacing effect.
Primus took a step back but stopped. "Lily you must listen to me. Your pointless anger is bleeding through the bond you share and is driving Blurr to use massive amounts of-" Blurr fashioned an energon sword and sliced it across the the Gods holoform, however it only destroyed the ground.
"Blurr you must listen to me. I never intended to harm anyone and I haven't yet." Primus pled. "You must take her to saftey, the zombiecons are surrounding you!"
~~~~
Lily's eyes suddenly grew wide, her anger dissapearing and now replaced with fear. "BLURR!" She screamed as a rusted hand reached for her.
In the blink of an eye, it was gone and replaced with the protective body of her sire. Looking around, Lily saw what Primus was talking about. There was easily 100 of the bots and they were targeting her sire.
:Dad I'm sorry I-:
:It's ok.: He clipped.
Lily began to scold herself, she should've listened to Optimus's lectures more. Maybe she would've learned about not letting anger get the best of her.
Blurr's ped placed itself before Lily, shielding her from the army of undead. The most powerful roar made her fall to her knees and Blurr quickly vanished slicing the foes.
'Was that from blurr? Did I do that to him?' She watched as her father danced about her, slicing, kicking and punching his way through the bots.
":Your anger and such was so strong, it bled into his spark, activating the programming every sire has.' Primus suddenly knelt beside the human girl.
"I'm sorry. I-" He silenced her with a hand on her shoulder.
":It is alright:"
"What is the program you're talking about?" Lily asked looking behind her to see Soundwave and the others en route to her.
": Pure and unctrolable defensive rage. All for you, his sparkling.:" Primus stated and dissapeared.
The group began to fire at the zombie bots and Lily found herself in the servos of Ratchet. "Are you injured?" He asked retreating a safe distance while the others artacked.
"No." Lily shook her head. "But I.... "
Ratchet sighed in relief. 'Thank Primus she wasn't hurt."
~~~~~
{:Lord Megatron: Destination found.:}
Soundwave's voice filtered over the comm link.
{:Good work Soundwave.:} optimus shot a zombiecon behind Megatrons back.
{:Orders: Stay behind and defend the buildings ruins:}
Megatron raised a brow, kicking a small group of undead bots. {:Soundwave, I don't like how obtuse you're being.:}
{:Noted:} Megatron watched as the drone flew towards the Elite Guard, picking him up with his tendrils and flew to where the medic was.
"Optimus, I am not one for intuition, but I feel as though something is bound to happen." The warlord said firing his arm cannon.
"As do I." Optimus watched as Soundwave carried Blurr off towards the deeper parts of the ruins.
~~~~
"Soundwave! Release me this instant!!!" Blurr yelled from the grasp of his brother.
Lily was on Laserbeak as they headed towards the middle of the Hall of Relics, or what use to be it.
"Soundwave!" Blurr shrieked as he was dropped 40 feet from the air.
Lily watched as the two scuffled on the ground. Well, Blurr was in Soundwave's face while he just stood there and took the onslaught of verbal attacks.
The area they were in, was a caved in room that once had, what Lily thought, paintings on the walls but they were all gone now. All that remained was a door that looked impossible to open.
Laserbeak floated down before Blurr, silencing him almost imeadiatly. "Why are we hear when we should be fighting beside Optimus?" Blurr held his servos out for Lily to jump on, Laserbeak then hooking to Soundwave's chassis.
"We must continue on with out them." His brother stated through his visor.
Blurr sighed, "Very well, but why must Lily come along. Won't it be dangerous."
Soundwave walked to the door, upon his arrival before it, it opened. "Negative. She would be safer with us." Soundwave started to walk into the passage.
Blurr looked down to Lily in his servo. "Are you ready?"
Lily looked up and smiled softly, "as ready as I'll ever be." She said and Blurr began to follow Soundwave.
~~~
As Optimus and Megatron fought the last remaining zombiecons- Blurr, Soundwave and Lily headed towards the heart of Cybertron. However the journey there wasn't going to be a quiet one. After all, a teenager wasn't silent for long.
Alright, and off they go! To the heart of Cybertron.
Omgerd, suspense, suspense, suspense is going to be on its way.
