I laid the riffle on the metal table as Dino strode in. 'Hey...' I shot him a glare. 'You want me to be nice to you? After what you did to poor Sideswipe!' She snapped. He raised his hands at peace. 'You're right, I was a jerk.' I huffed and turned around. 'That's an understatement.' Dino approached. 'Do you always torture your friends to get what you want? To make them feel miserable and drunk? You know how crazy Sideswipe is about you and then you pull this off.' I sucked in a breath. 'I know... I know and I'm sorry.'

'Don't say sorry to me.'

I pushed him aside. 'You know who the traitor is and I thought he would know.' I stopped in my tracks and turned around. 'I do know who it is. I knew that weeks ago.' Dino was hurt and that was the reason of his behavior. 'Whatever it is, I can handle the truth, Katy. Don't coddle me! If this is about me or something I didn't handle well in the past... whatever reason it is, I need to know. Sideswipe told me it had something to do with me!'

There was a pause. 'And I know you have pictures on your phone. What kind of pictures are those?' I stared at him and gestured for him to sit down. He obligated and stared at me with those beautiful blue orbs. I reached for my phone and unlocked it. 'Kammie is cheating on you.' I showed them the photos. He snitched it from my hands. There was a long silence while stared at the photos. 'And she had an abortion... twice.' He snapped his head up. 'She was pregnant of me or him?' He spat. 'You.' He laid my phone back down on the table. 'She's also our traitor. Jazz approached me to help him. We wanted to be absolutely sure, but she's using you to get information.'

Dino got up and turned away from me and paced around before turning around. 'Why did you keep this from me!' He screamed. I didn't respond. I knew he was going to be angry with me. 'How could you! You're my partner!' He kicked against a bench. 'We are done! I don't want you here anymore!' With that open in the air he stormed off. I softly sighed. It wasn't a surprise and he had to process all of this. I sucked in a breath. The feeling was tearing me apart. Did I make a mistake? Should I have told him sooner? I sat down, burying my face in my hands. Dino definitely didn't deserve this. I have no idea how Kammie is able to hurt him so badly. On every level.

I bristled and got up, leaving the gear room to see what Mirage was up to. The spy was yelling at my sister in the hangar. 'You told him...' I glanced at Jazz sidelong. 'Yeah.'
Jazz and I watched. 'You'd want to arrest her?' I questioned. 'No, I asked Prowl to do it. I don't think I'm able to face Mirage right now.' I accepted his answer and nodded slowly. 'He'll be angry with your for a while.'

I shrugged. 'Yeah, I know. I'll get over it.' I wanted him to be mad at me. He needed to get it out and if it helped blaming me, he could yell and snap whatever he wanted. Jazz and I watched until I couldn't anymore and walked off to pack and leave. Mirage needed some space and I knew he would come around soon or later. The last thing I wanted was causing him more stress and pain.

I bumped into the spy on my way out. The furry visible on his handsome face, but beyond that, I saw the pain shinning through. A raw, bleeding wound and his spark cried. I knew he came looking for me to yell and vent. 'You betrayed me too! I trusted you, you were my friend and you fucking lied!' He shouted. I sat nothing and watched. 'Partners are honest with each other and you're nothing more than a traitorous bitch! Get the hell out of here! I don't ever want to see your ugly face again!' He screamed. Just for a moment, I thought he would shatter completely, right here and now. So much pain, so much sadness.

I drowned the urge to grab him, hug him. He became my friend, a close friend and I lied, to spare him from this. He deserved better than Kamie. I wondered if my sister ever truly loved him for what he was or if it had been a game since the beginning. 'She killed twice my unborn sparklings.'

'I know.'

Not a denial, not an attempt to make him feel better, just a raw confirmation. What else could be said about it?
The soy's shoulders sagged. 'Just get out of here, Katy. Leave me alone.' I passed him without saying another word, but I felt his keen eyes marking my every step as I walked up to the elevator and for a second, I believed he would stop me, but he battled himself whether he wanted my company or not. I stepped in the reactor and left.

((Mirage's P.O.V))
The female left. Just like that. Not argument, not attempt to sway me. She left the moment I asked, no questions asked. A pet of me longed for her, for that smile had given me during our mission to the desert. A warm, understanding smile and the kindness in her eyes. Not many people bothered giving me that look and it seemed the looks Kamie had given me over the years were all fake too.

I stared at the closed doors look enough that some soldiers started to feel uncomfortable and look at me as they passed. Skittles things. I turned around and headed to my office. Katy's sweet scent still lingered here. I slumped back in my chair, hands trembling as I stared at the wall. Prime had tried to talk to me, so had Prowl, Ironhide and Ratchet. I had waved them all off. I didn't want to talk about the wolf in sheep clothing of the stupid mistake I made. All the secrets that I laid bare by letting my guard down for once.
