Action Chapter!
We sat in Simmons car as we drove toward where the cosmonauts were going to be. Sam and Simmons in the back while I sat up front with Dutch.
I looked out the passengers window to see Sideswipe, then Dino on Dutch's side. I looked behind us to see Sunny and Bee.
"Going to a gig on the hunt for two Russian cosmonauts. Nothing like driving in a Maybach, eh? Germans know how to make cars, let me tell you." Simmons says.
I smiled and shook my head but stayed silent as we continued to drive to our destination.
"My Dutchman, former NSA cybersleuth extraordinaire, tracked them down....here. So, these cosmonauts went into hiding. Why?" Simmons asked putting his binoculars down.
"Bingo. I got a match." Dutch announced beside me putting his too big for necessary binoculars down as well. He pointed out the window toward two men and a woman. They did look suspicious if you looked at them long enough.
"You're a German Shepherd, Dutch." Simmons got out of the car with us close behind him. He walked to the back of the car where he opened the truck to reveal a silver case. He opened it to show many weapons. "The thing about Russians is, they never like to talk. It's gonna take a little of the international language." He told us as he loaded the gun and clicked it.
"Could I have one?" I asked him making him look at me with a raised eyebrow.
"What?" I asked stepping back.
"Do you even know how to use a gun? Plus, it's only a precaution that I'm taking it." He told me.
"And a correct precaution at that, now give me a gun, or even the brass knuckles." I pointed at them.
"Ha! Those aren't play toys...here." He stuffed another handgun into my hand. "Hope you don't shoot yourself or any of us." He slammed the chest closed before walking toward the alleyway type entrance.
Sam walked beside me. "You know what you're doing?" He asked me. I rolled my eyes.
"Yes, Sam. Trust me." I told him as I stuff the gun into the front of my pants.
We got to the door and I leaned against the wall with Sam as Dutch and Simmons walked up to the door.
Simmons knocked and went the eye view slide thing opened he spoke. "Do svidaniya."
"That means good-bye." The bouncer told him before slamming it shut.
"Watch this." Simmons tells us. I raise my eyebrows and watch him.
He knocks again and hands the bouncer money before the door opened.
We walk in and through a hallway before making it to the dimly lit room. I looked around while following Simmons and Dutch to the table with Sam beside me.
"Dutch, give me something tough." Simmons tells him.
Dutch flipped through the book he had before stammering. "Ah.. B- baryshnikov."
I shook my head in amusement but kept watching silently. I would tell them that it wasn't necessary but that'd just make them suspicious. More then they are now anyway.
"We do speak English." A guy told us.
"Dutch, you suck." Simmons told him.
"Harsh." I commented. "You don't suck, Dutch." I told him.
He smiled at me before turning to Simmons. "It's a Cyrillic... alphabet! It's like all the buttons you never push on a calculator! I don't suck."
Simmons sat at the table and began talking. "Agent Seymour Simmons, Sector Eight, formerly Seven. We know who you are, cosmonautchiks."
"So what?" Another guy asked.
"You were supposed to travel to the dark side of the moon, then... Tch, it all got shut down. The question is, why?" Simmons poured himself a glass of...whiskey?
It kills me! I just want to blurt out all the answers and shake Sam into realization that this isn't going to end well. I wanted to slap Simmons because...well, who doesn't want to slap Simmons. I hate just standing here watching like I'm watching the movie all over again. I had no other choice though, I had to wait.
The woman asked the man beside her something before shouting in Russian across the room. I looked but didn't anything expect Dutch flipping through the book again.
"Can my child smoke in here?" Dutch furrows his eyebrows and makes a face before the woman at the bar behind Dutch shouted something back at the woman at the table.
They start a shouting match between each other and my fingers twitch toward the gun.
The woman at the table suddenly pulled her gun out pointing it at Simmons and the bartender pulled a rifle out and pointed it at Dutch.
I pulled my gun out just as a man pushed Sam down and pointed his gun at Sam's head. I pointed my gun at the woman before switching it the man that held Sam down.
"Go ahead, shoot me." Simmons tells her before she says something back at him. I switched my gun back to her. "I'm willing to die for my country. Are you?" He asks her.
"Really?" Simmons asks while I hear the bartender shout. I turned my head slightly to see Dutch get that look in his eye.
"You are beautiful. Has anyone ever told you you're beautiful?" Simmons asks her. I take a deep breath knowing what was coming. "She's a beautiful woman."
She stays something to him just as Dutch went into action behind me. I heard the bartender shout again.
"Hyaah!" I turned and pointed my gun and the guy holding Sam again so I could watch. Dutch slams the gun down onto the counter before hitting the woman with the gun making her scream and twisting her arm back. I cringed before backing up from him.
"Whoa! Hey!" Simmons shouts.
Dutch points the gun at another man that went to grab the gun from him and lowers himself to the ground making the man do the same.
"Dutch! Back in the cage." Simmons tells him.
Dutch shouts and pulls his own gun out and points them at everyone.
"Dutch!" I shout backing up again.
Sam shouts with many other people as Simmons tries to reason with Dutch.
"Dutch! Hold, Dutch, hold!"
"Control your boy, please! Control your boy." Sam begs him as he was lying on the ground with a gun pressed into the back of his head.
Dutch, schtop! Ich-ku-klav-kush-kash-schtop!" Simmons tells him though I have no idea what he was saying or trying to say, I watched Dutch drop his hand gun.
"I'm so sorry... That is the old me." H apologizes to the man he pointed the gun at.
"Okay, let's everybody just calm down, let's lower the heat, lower the guns, let's relax. World War Two is over." Simmons tells everyone. I lower my gun as everyone else does but I don't put it away.
After everything calmed the two cosmonauts led us to a back room where they held files and journals.
"You are about to see one of the biggest Soviet secrets. America first to send man to the moon. But USSR first to send camera. In 1959, our Luna Three take picture of the... dark, the shadow side. Sees nothing. But in 1963, Luna Four sees-" One was telling us before they other took over.
"'trange rocks."
"Yeah."
"Around the ship. Hundreds of them."
"Yeah, show picture."
"With some....drag marks." He hands the picture to Sam and we all look over his shoulder at the pictures.
"I've seen these. These aren't rocks, these are pillars. Alien pillars for a space bridge. We know about them because the Autobots have five of these." Sam tells them while I clench my fists.
"Decepticons must have raided the ship before Apollo Eleven ever got there, took the pillars, and hid them." I slowly shook my head side to side as I stared at the picture.
"It doesn't make sense. The Decepticons have the ship. They have all those pillars. Why would they leave Sentinel when he's the only one who can use them?" Sam tells us.
"Unless..." Simmons trails off.
"He's the one thing they still need." A pit. That's what my stomach became. I deep endless pit that was starting to engulf me. My hands shook as I closed my eyes.
Everyone stayed silent for a few seconds before Sam stood up and thanked the cosmonauts. We soon left with Sam in the lead, me behind him with Dutch and Simmons behind me.
"We've got to meet up with Sentinel, rendezvous with him and keep him safe." Sam told us.
I shook my head. "Sam-"
"It's the only way Ellie, or the Decepticons will win this battle with, Earth will be gone." He ran outside.
'What am I going to do?'
------------
"Mearing, I just picked up Sentinel. Optimus is ten minutes behind. We're coming to NEST now." Sam told her over the phone as I leaned against Bumblebee watching as Sentinel drive past us. I glared at the truck and couldn't help but feel eyes...or might I say optics on me.
"Listen, the whole thing has been a setup since the beginning. The Decepticons wanted Optimus to find Sentinel because only Optimus could revive him." Sam told Mearing as we drove to base. I couldn't help but rub my face anxiously.
Mearing, you have five pillars. I just learned that they have hundreds. You're doing exactly what they wanted you to do. What do you need me to say to you? The Decepticons are coming for Sentinel Prime!"
"No they already have him...." I muttered. I felt Bee swerve before straightening again. I felt the optics on my again and knew Bee was watching me. "Get ready Bee." I pat the seat.
We continued to drive down the highway when I looked behind us, and toward the three black SUVs coming at us quickly.
They all slowed at they came up behind Simmons car and the middle one, known as Crowbar, transformed. I watched with wide eyes as he grabbed Simmons from the vehicle and threw him.
I knew he was going to be okay but it was still shocking to see. I watched as Crowbar smashed into the signs on the highway making a ramp for the other two. As they flew in the air they transformed and ran after us.
"Bee, you got to get Sentinel out of here! You got to guard him!" Sam told Bee as he also watched the Cons. Sides, Sunny, Dino and Bee all sped up as Sentinel drove faster, probably eager to get this over with so he can rule the planet.
"Ha!" I laughed aloud at my thoughts getting a look from Sam.
"Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!" Sam yelled as the three got closer to us. They were flipping and exploding cars at they ran and I winced thinking of the people inside those cars.
I couldn't help but scream as Hatchet jumped over Bee. I grabbed the back of the passenger seat when Bee suddenly stopped the car to a slower pace and shifted so his weapons were activated.
He started shooting at the Cons that were now in front of us before missiles were shot. I couldn't tell if they were from Bee or one of the others as I was watching everything happen with adrenaline pumping through my veins.
Hatchet caught on fire as he seemed to explode but kept running. I looked to the side at sudden movement to see Dino transform and jump into the air.
"Oh! Sam watch this!" I watched eagerly as Dino jumped and sprung his hooks at Hatchet before being dragged down the highway like a dog and owner on a skateboard.
"Got you!" I heard Dino exclaim. I smiled as I continued to watch.
"Shoot him! Shoot him! Shoot him, Bee!" Sam instructed. I watched as Dino jumped up and landed on the concrete wall beside the road and rode on it as Bee shot at Hatchet.
Bee shot at the Con before Dino flung him with the other lane of traffic, killing the Con immediately.
"Bee, you've got to move faster! Faster, Bee! Go!" Sam yelled as Crowbar and Dreads flipped vehicles over in front of us to slow us down. It didn't work as Bee and Sides flipped over them. Sunny and Dino were still drive and dodged them.
I was breathing heavily as I couldn't catch up with what was happening outside the car. All I knew what that it was much easier to watch it from a screen or even to be a witness.
I clutched the seat below me when I saw Crowbar...I think it was. He flipped and truck carrying containers at us. I tensed as I felt Bee start to transform.
"Bee! Mo-" Sam and I are sent flying through the air. I screamed as I flail in the air and close my eyes tightly. I was suddenly grabbed by a metal hand and felt pressure and myself moving before everything was settled again. Sam was screaming like a little girl for a good five seconds as I finally opened my eyes and saw we were back in Bees cab. "All right, back to NEST!" Sam yelled once he was calmer.
We drove at full speed down many streets when we finally saw a transformed Sideswipe race down a road in front of us. "There's Sides!" I sit up straighter and watch Dino drive past just as Bee drifted onto the road they were on.
"Ironhide!" Sam shouted at the mech drove past us. Just seeing him made my heart pump faster in dread.
"He's gonna be fine, he has to be." I murmur. Bee whirs through the radio but doesn't say anything as he continues to drive toward base.
----------
Bee again drifted at the base's entrance right behind Dino. Sentinel was behind us with Sides and Ironhide pulling him behind him. Cue my heart rate speeding up some more.
Once Bee stopped I got out of the car and ran after Sam.
"Lennox!" Sam called when we got closer to William.
"Go go go go go." Lennox was telling other soldiers.
"We got Decepticons everywhere."
I shaking as I looked back at Sentinel then at Ironhide. "It can't happen, it's not gonna happen." I whisper frantically.
"I've got my whole team deployed looking for them. Ironhide! Protect Sentinel. Get him locked up inside." Lennox calls up to a transforming Hide.
I let out a shaky breath. "No...No! William! No." I tell him firmly.
"Consider it done!" Ironhide calls out.
"No! Don't consider it done! Stop!" I shout at him.
William looks at me. "What's wrong with you? What's going on?" He asks me lowly. I shake my head as tears start to fall.
"S-Sentinel...he isn't who you think he is.." I tell him desperately. He looks up at Sentinel and backs up.
"Hey, you've got to guard him, 'cause he's the key to the whole thing." Sam, Mr. I-Know-Everything, ignores me.
"Samuel!" I scream.
"Indeed I am. What you must realize, my Autobot brothers, is we were never going to win the war. For the sake of our planet's survival, a deal had to be made... with Megatron."
The world slows down. It's slow motion. I can't stop it. I can just watch as Sentinel takes out his rust gun and aims at an unsuspecting Ironhide before......
I scream.
A/N: How many of you hate me right now? Sorry...but you'll have to wait now. :) Thank you!
