I was shooting at any Decepticon I came across. The battle has been raging for several minutes. I paused to catch my breath for a second when I heard a very familiar voice. I look up at a building to see Jazz fighting Megatron.

"You want a piece of me, Megatron?" Jazz yells.

Megatron grabbed him in one hand and at this, I knew I had to act. I aimed my gun and Megatron's eye and before he could rip Jazz in half, I fired. Megatron let out a scream and dropped Jazz. Megatron and Jazz look at me. Megatron had a look of fury on his face, while Jazz had one of confusion.

"No one hurts my best friend", I growl, loud enough for both to hear me. I saw a look of recognition appear on Jazz's face.

Megatron growls but is distracted by Sam running off with the cube. Jazz comes over to me.

"Emily...", he whispers.

"Hey, Jazz. It's been a while", I say softly.

Jazz just stares at me. I felt my eyes fill with tears.

"I missed you", I whisper.

Jazz was still quiet. I was beginning to get uncomfortable and desperate for him to say just one thing.

"Jazz, please say something! Anything! I don't care what! I just... I need to hear your voice. I need to hear the voice I came to love those twenty years ago", I cry out.

Jazz still doesn't say anything, instead he turns and runs off. I sigh softly, tears trickling down my face.

I tried to keep it in but eventually couldn't, and just let out a scream of despair. My teammates looked over at me, and saw me collapse to my knees, shaking.

There were no Decepticons nearby, so they came over to me.

"Watson, you okay?" Lennox asks as he kneels next to me.

I try to speak, but all that came out of my mouth was repressed sobs. I resorted to shaking my head.

"Are you injured?" Epps asks. I looked at him, and placed my hand on my heart, shaking the entire time.

Epps instantly understands. "Does this have something to do with... what was his name... the guy you were telling me about while we were still in Qatar?"

I nod. He shooed the other away, and knelt in front of me.

"Talk to me, Watson. What happened?"

"Jazz is one of the Autobots", I manage to get out shakily. "I saved him from getting ripped in half by Megatron. He came and stood in front of me. He said nothing. I tried to talk to him, but he didn't respond to anything I said. Then... he just turned and ran off. I don't know what to do, Epps..."

Epps sighs before giving me a hug.

"Can you fight?"

I look up at him, tears in my eyes.

"Wha-?"

"We're in the middle of a battle. I need you to suppress your emotions until after the battle when we can discuss this further", Epps explains.

I blink before shoving my emotions to side, wiping away my tears, and standing up. Epps smiles softly before running in the direction of the team. It was there that we saw the final showdown between Megatron and Optimus.

Megatron was winning.

That is, until Sam shoved the Allspark into Megatron's chest, killing him.

I stare at Megatron in shock, and many of the others where shocked too.

I turned to Epps. "Well, the battles over, can I break down now?" I joked.

Epps sent me a look, making me chuckle. I look around to see that the Autobots were gathering around us now. I only recognized three. Optimus, because Jazz told me that Optimus was the leader of the Autobots. Bumblebee, because of my sister. And Jazz, because I... I still love him.

I see Jazz looking at me, and I try to look over at him with a smile on my face but it falters when I see the look on his face. He looks so defeated even though Megatron was dead. I knew that it was because I hurt him, by sending him away. I didn't know I hurt him that badly though.

Bumblebee then spoke up. "I wish to stay with the boy."

Optimus smiles and allows Bee to stay with Sam.

Optimus then looks at us. "We thank you for your help in fighting the Decepticons."

I knew Lennox was about to say something, but I beat him to it.

"We thank you, for allowing us to help. I know we may be small, and squishy, and short, but we are glad to help you guys", I say confidently, though I did look over at Jazz  when I said short.

What I saw on his face was not something I ever wanted to see again.

Pain. Pure pain.

"If I may be allowed, I would like to be reconnected with one of my old friends", I say quietly, looking at Jazz. Optimus followed my gaze, and his eyes softened.

"Jazz. Take a drive with this young human", Optimus says. Jazz tenses up.

"Optimus, with all due respect, I don't... I don't know if I should be allowed to be around her." Jazz looked at me. "For my own protection. She's pretty fierce", Jazz spits out bitterly.

It was then that I blew up. "Jazz, if I hadn't sent you away those 20 years ago, you would have been taken forcefully from me, and you could have been killed. I was protecting you..."

Jazz was glaring at me. "And I told you I could protect myself!"

"I know you can! But humans can be brutal! Trust me, I know... you know I know... Because I told you what happened after my dad died!"

Jazz's eyes soften, before hardening again. "Whatever, femme."

I sigh, giving up. I turn to look at Bee. "Hey, Bee. Do you think you could give me a ride to Charlie's house? I'm going to stay there for a few days."

Bee nodded enthusiastically and transformed. Sam climbed into the driver's seat, and Mikaela, as I learned her name was waited for me to hop in back. Before I got in however, I said the words that had been dying to come out of my mouth ever since I saw Jazz for the first time in 20 years.

"I still love you, shorty", I say, loud enough for everyone to hear. Jazz whips his head to look at me, and I saw that he was about to say something, but I turned my head away, and climbed into the backseat of Bee's vehicle mode.

As we drove past Jazz, I looked up at him, and I saw him staring after me, pain in his eyes.

After we had driven for several minutes, I finally let my walls down and let the tears fall freely.
