We were driving down the road when Sam talked.

"That's them, right there. See the flare?"

"Right over there! You see it?" Simmons pointed out the windshield. I looked out and saw it soaring higher before arching down.

"Guys! Bumblebee! I suggest to get ready." I told him.

"Wh-" Sam was going to ask when Starscream's missiles came flying down around us.

"Whoa!"

"Sam!"

"Oh! Whoa!"

I looked at Leo as we turned a corner trying to dodge the missiles and he was trembling with his face turning red. Until he finally broke.

"Oh God. Please God! Please."

"Leo, stop freaking out. Stop freaking out." Mikaela chanted.

"Please God please-" Leo kept saying.

"Shut this guy up, huh?" Simmons said.

"Please, just let me live, just let me live!"

"Shut up and let him drive!" Mikaela yelled.

"Just stop screaming-" Sam said. I sighed and found his pressure point before jabbing it making him black out.

"Thank you! Can't- take that guy anymore." Simmons said.

We continued to drive, trying to loose Starscream but as we turned a corner a missile came flying as Screamer transformed and landed in front of us.

"Whoa!" Sam yelled. We could see dust flying up from the bullets being shot at us.

"Hide in the dust! Use the dust!" Simmons told Bee, or Sam. I don't know who was driving.

We drove into the dust floating in the air before getting out of the car.

"We've got to split up. Bumblebee, you're the decoy. You lead the Decepticons away, all right? I'm gonna get Optimus." Sam said with Mikeala beside him. I was standing more beside Simmons.

"I'll help draw their fire with Huey and Dewey there. You get to those soldiers. I hope that dust works, kid." Simmons told Sam.

"Thank you. Ellie? You coming with us, or will they need you?" He gestured to Simmons and Leo.

I shook my head. "They'll be fine, come on." I ran towards Sam and Mikaela before we started running across the open sand.

-----------

We ran for awhile in the smoldering sun and hot sand when we got to a sand dune that we climbed to find four flares flying in the sky.

"There they are." I sighed but I knew it wasn't going to be as simple as just running a few miles and then reviving Optimus.

"Look. There it is. We got a couple of miles." Sam announced before grabbing Mikaela and running with me behind them.

------------

"........We still have a mile that way. ........Come on... This way. This way." Sam was panting from the running as he spoke. We ran through a building before taking off in another direction. I had sweat all over my face and down my back. Sounds attractive don't it?

-----------

As we ran in between huge pillars we heard a lot of booms from behind us. I looked up to see a 'meteor' fly over us.

"Keep going." I whisper before running after them again.

----------

We ran along a house when we heard electronic noises.

"Sam, stop!" I hiss quietly as he was about to walk out in the open.

"Sam, Ellie." We heard Mikaela and turned around to see her with a house door open. We ran inside before hiding behind the far wall.

"I don't think they saw us. Get down. Get down. Okay. Listen. Once it's clear, we run for Optimus as fast as we can, okay?" Sam told us. I nodded.

"But what if it doesn't work?" Mikaela asked looking at us both.

"It's gonna work." I tell them. "We just have to get there first."

Sam got up to go to the door but before he could the ground trembled with Starscream's weight as he landed. We heard him growl as well as his footsteps coming toward our hiding spot.

I started to shake with fear as I heard growls, footsteps and them speaking Cybertronian as they shot around us trying to find us. When your the one watching the movie you're excited to see what happens, then you're thrown into it and your scared out if your mind.

I watched Sam as he killed a insecticon that was crawling through the peephole Sam made before the roof of the house was ripped off.

We screamed before running like little ants out of the house trying to avoid Starscream's hands.

As we ran up the stairs beside the house we had to avoid a hook coming down to crush us. Since I was the last to run up the stairs I felt most of the rocks flying up and hitting me. I covered my head with my hands as I made it to the ledge with Sam and Mikaela.

"Get ready to jump!" Sam tells us. We back up before jumping. As we were mid-air we had rubble and sand fly all around us from Starscream trying to shoot us. I shut my eyes tightly to avoid getting any in my eyes.

We landed on top of the roof of the other house before rolling and falling down between that house and the one beside. To make it simple, we're between two houses.

We got up and began to run again until we got to a little opening where there was shade. Lots of chickens too. We looked out to see smoke and bullets flying from the soldiers and Autobots.

"We got a half-mile. I don't think the soldiers know we're here." Sam informed us. I was too jumble minded to say anything or recall what happened next, I was starting to dislike sand the longer we were here too.

-------------

We ran out from an alley like place and I rolled my eyes when Sam slid over a car.

"Really, Sam? You couldn't have ran around it like us?" I asked him as I ran around the car and towards the house across the road.

"Just come on." Sam waved his hand as he ran ahead of me.

We made it back to open desert and ran down a sand dune when we heard....

"Sam!" Ron called from beside....Rampage, I think. "Sam! Sam, Sam!" Ron and Judy came running toward us.

"Sam!"

"Sam!"

"Dad!" Sam finally spotted them as we heard noises from on top of the building we were beside. I dropped to the floor covering my head as Rampage landed beside us.

I heard everyone either yell, scream, fall to the floor, or growl, in Rampage's position as I felt sand fall all around me.

"Wait, wait!" I heard Sam yell so I slowly looked up to see him standing in front of me and as I turned my head I saw Mikaela laying down behind me.

"Please listen to me!" Ron told Sam. "I want you to run! Run!"

"Dad, just stop! They don't want you, they want me- oh, God! Wait!" Sam yelled as Rampage threw a......something to the ground in front of Judy and Ron.

"Sam Witwicky." Rampage growled as I stood up slowly with Mikaela following suit.

"Don't hurt them." Sam pulled the sock that he had the dust in out of his pocket before showing it to Rampage. "This is what you want. You don't want them."

"Go!" Judy yelled.

"Please stop!" Sam told her, still looking at the Con in front of him.

"Go!"

"Stop!"

"Listen to your father!"

"Just get out of here!" Ron told him.

I heard a whistle and turned my head as Sam did to see Bee, he pointed toward his right. I nodded before turning back to face Rampage.

"I know what you want." Sam told him again.

"Just go! Just go." Ron tried again.

"And I know that you need me. Because I know about the Matrix." Sam circled Rampage to have him face his back to Bee. I grabbed Mikaela's arm to pull her away from Sam and toward the building she was beside.

"Don't do it, Sam, listen to me-" Ron was talking when Sam interrupted.

"Please, Dad."

"They're going to kill us all anyway!" Ron told him. I looked up to see Bee on top of the building facing Rampage's back.

"Hey, hey, whoa! Here's what you want, right here. Bumblebee!" Sam yelled. I watched at Bee did some sort of somersault before kicking Rampage in the face.

I couldn't see the three Witwickys because of the sand flying everywhere.

Mikaela and I stayed by the house, watching as Bee hit and kicked Rampage around. We screamed and fell to the ground when one of Rampage's 'tentacles' flew toward us. I looked up in time to see Bee swiftly rip off some of the Cons face armor, before breaking his arm in half. He stomped on it to break it further making Rampage scream in pain.

I looked to the side as I saw movement and my eyes widened seeing Ravage running up behind Bee.

"Bumblebee!" I call. "Behind you!"

Bee turns but not before Ravage couldn't jump on his back and bite some armor off. Bee then grabbed him by his midsection and tail, ripping him apart.

As we watched we all huddled into a group beside a rusted car.

"Stay tight, Ma. Come on. Get in here." Sam said.

We watched as Bee grabbed the Cons arms before kneeing him in the face, pulling and pushing before finally ripping his arms completely off.

"Good job, Bee!" I cheer.

"Bee?" Sam asks quietly. Bee nods to him before we set off again.

"Back!" Ron yells while I get beside a car. I heard jets in the sky, I didn't know if they were Air Force or Cons. I forgot when Air Force got to the battle in the movie.

"Wait- hey!" Sam calls him back.

"I don't know what's going on, but we've got to move!" Ron tells us.

We heard a bomb or something explode to our left. Definitely not Air Force. We all run behind the wall in front of us.

"There's got to be a way out of here! Come on!" Ron began to run but as he went one way there was another explosion a few yards in front of him and Judy. Ron falls and Judy helps him.

"Judy, get back, get back, get back." I heard Ron yell while I ran for cover next to Sam and Mikaela.

Just as we got there an explosion went off behind us sending us to the ground.

"Against the wall! Against the wall! Against the wall. Against the wall. Bee! Bumblebee!" Sam tells us before calling for Bee. We run behind a car and leaned against the wall behind it.

Bee shows up behind the arch of a building in front of us. I was confused on where we were, it's like a maze, I hate mazes.

"You get them somewhere safe, all right? You've got to get in the car. Get to safety." Sam tells Bee before turning to Ron.

"No, no, this isn't up for discussion! You're my son!" Ron grabbed the front of Sam's shirt.

"I know!"

"You're my son!"

"Dad-"

"We all go together!"

"Listen-"

"We're all going together!"

Ron was shaking Sam, as if the shake some sense into him. It actually brought tears to my eyes.

"Dad, stop, okay? Get in the car. He's gonna get you to safety. You know, you run. You don't stop, you don't hide, you run. You hear what I'm saying. Okay? I'll find you when you're safe." Sam tells his parents.

"No!" Ron yells.

"You've got to let me go, Dad. You have to let me go. You have to." Sam pleads.

"Ron. Ron, Ron, let him go." Judy tells her husband.

"You come back! Come on." They run off toward Bee.

"Ron! Mikaela! Mikaela!" Judy calls. I wasn't hurt that she didn't call for me, I mean, she barely knew me.

"Go with my parents." Sam tells her before looking at me and tilting his head toward the car as if to tell me to go too. I shook my head at him.

"I'm not gonna go without you." She tells him. He stares for a second before taking off running with us behind him.

-----------

We made it to another house, it had another hole in the wall so we could see outside toward the battle going on. I saw the Acree sisters and Ironhide up ahead.

"Spotted Sam." Arcee rolled up with her sisters. My eyes widened in horror when I remembered they got killed.

"Hey- Sam!" Ironhide yelled from the distance.

"Ironhide!" Sam called back. I jumped into action when I saw Arcee's sister roll up. "Ellie! Where are you going?!"

"Follow us to the pillars. We'll take you to Optimus." I heard her say as I rounded the outside, I picked up a decent sized rock before running toward her.

"Look out!" Sam screamed just as I jumped. I rammed the rock into her tire, making her fall on top of me. I screamed in pain as I felt metal stab my arm. I heard the shot aimed at her hit the building Sam and Mikaela were in. "Ellie!" Sam yelled. I felt Arcee roll herself off me and start shooting. "Oh, god, you're bleeding." Sam said as he helped me up. I saw Mikaela cover her mouth with her hands as she looked at my arm.

I was scared to look but looked down. I almost puked at the sight. My whole upper arm was turning purple while I had a gash at least four inches wide and an half an inch deep across my upper arm. I'm going to need stitches big time. I grabbed a sheet from the house and ripped it the best I could before wrapping my arm with it. I had to stop from screaming in pain when I touched it.

"Get out, Sam! Get to the pillars!" Ironhide yelled. Again, not hurt he forgot me.....okay maybe a little. I mean, he's our guardian, and I just saved someone and can possibly loose my arm. I bit my lip thinking but shook my head. 'It was worth it. Who else can say that they saved an Autobot femme?'

"Let's go." Sam told us before running off but looked back to check on me every once in awhile.

-------------

We ran into the battle, we dodged falling Cons and bullets the best we could. I started to feel light headed and looked at my arm only to feel nauseous. The entire sheet was red. I'm just hoping I'd stay awake long enough to make it to Optimus.

We ran through the pillars and when I looked back I saw Megatron running toward us. "Run!" I screamed.

"Hey!" Sam yelled waving his jacket around to get the soldiers attention. I saw Sideswipe and smiled. Another familiar face.

"Sam! Ellie! Spotted Sam- uhh!" He was shot but got back up and continued shooting. I heard Megatron roar from behind us.

As we ran we looked behind us to see bullets flying toward us. "Run!" I screamed sprinting faster. We continued to run when an explosion went off in front of us causing us to fall. You know what happens to all the injured people. Yep. And I screamed. Loudly. "Shit!" I wanted to hold my arm but that'd only make it hurt worse.

"Heeeeey!" Sam yelled to the soldiers. I couldn't focus. I had tears in my eyes from the pain. I had to shake my head to stay awake. My vision was getting blurry but I had to stay awake. I had to.

We crawled, well I crawled with my legs and one arm, toward some dead bushes, while dodging bullets.

"Come on! Mikaela! Come on! Get in here!" We soon heard Will yell. I got up and stumbled but Sam hooked his arm under my uninjured arm to keep me steady as we ran after Mikaela to Will. Once we got there, I fell against the wall next to William.

"Oh, look who showed up. You better have a good reason for us to be here. What happened to your arm?!" He asked staring at it horrified.

"Saved an Autobot, no biggy." I waved my hand the best I could.

"Where's Optimus?" Sam asked before Will could say anything else.

"He's right over there, across the courtyard." Will pointed to Optimus's body.

Megatron could be heard roaring in the background. My eyes kept closing but I forced them open each time.

"I got to get to him right now." Sam said holding up the sock full of dust.

"Not with an air strike coming." Lennox retorted.

"I have to get to him right now." Sam insisted.

We heard growling and everyone huddled together but I stayed where I was, because one, I knew JetFire would get it, and two, my arm was burning.

"Go. Back, back, back, back. Ellie!" He called in a hiss but I still stayed where I was.

"Okay-" Will was cut off by the Con looking over the side of our hiding spot. He shot at the tank in front of us that was shooting at him, the soldiers being sent flying.

"Behold the glory of... JetFire!" I smiled up at him as he came and hit the Con. "Now let me show you how we brought the pain in my day!" He said as he smashed the Cons head off.

I watched as Scorponok came flying out of the sand, soaring above us and attacking JetFire. I watched in sorrow when I remembered that we won't be able to save him.

"Ah! Ow!" JetFire grabbed onto the wall for support before ripping Scopo off. He fell to the ground but smashed a jet tire onto the Con's head killing him. "I'm too old for this crap."

-----------

"B-1's time on target, thirty seconds. 2,000-pound J-DAMs inbound." Came through Epps radio.

"We're gonna make a break through the B's on my command, okay? You guys stick with me, you understand? You stay on my ass." William tells us. I scrunch my face up before nodding taking a deep breath and readying myself to run like hell. Nice toss Epps, real nice.

"I hope these F-16s got good aim." Epps said.

"Yeah? Why is that?" William asked.

"I told them to hit the orange smoke."

Will looked beside us where the orange smoke was forming a cloud around us. "You mean that orange smoke?"

"It wasn't my best toss, okay?"

I snorted. "I wouldn't consider that a toss, anyway." I told him.

"Viper. Thunder."

"Run!" They shouted. I got up before sprinting away with Sam beside me.

"Incoming!" Epps yelled.

"Come on!" Will yelled at us.

I heard grunting coming from behind us and looked to find Ironhide running with his chest on fire. "Come on, 'Hide!" I yelled at him.

When the real big bombs started going off Sam grabbed hold of my hand and started running toward Optimus.

"Run!" Sam yelled at me, while encouraging himself at the same time. I looked behind us to see Megatron.

"NO!" I screamed running a bit faster ahead. I heard the shot of the blaster before I was sent flying through the air. I heard Sam screaming before I landed, luckily not on my arm.

"Sam!" I heard Mikaela barely.

I groaned and rolled over but stopped and screamed when I hit my arm on a rock.

"Hold your fire!" William yelled. It echoed for me.

I blocked out everything when I saw my Autobot insignia necklace laying down in the sand a few inches away. I reached out to it but as I got closer to it the more dizzy I seemed. In a fast motion, I grabbed it and the last thing I remember was hearing Epps calling my name. "Ellie! Stay awake! Ell...."

Darkness was all I could register, no pain, no emotions, no light, just blackness.

I turned around in circles until I saw a silhouette, or make that two. I tilted my head while narrowing my eyes at the figures.

"Hello?" I asked.

It was silent until......"Ellie." I froze and stared. That's all I could do, stare. All of a sudden everything came to me. Light flashed the room, and my emotions flooded back into me. I could faintly feel pain in my arm but could care less about it.

I broke down sobbing before running towards to figure. "Mommy!" I hugged her tightly. "Daddy!" I felt him hug us both. "I miss you both so much!" I cry.

"Oh baby, we miss you too. So much." Mom told me, stroking my hair. "You've been doing a great job, honey. We've been watching you."

"Who knew you memorized the movies." Dad mumbled. I laughed before turning around and hugging him around the waist. "I miss you, sweetie. You're mother is right, you're doing great." He kissed my head.

"Am I dead?" I asked them.

"Technically, you are, but you're not staying." Dad told me with a shake of his head. "You're going back. We just wanted to see you one last time. To give us all a proper goodbye."

"Wait! What? What do you mean-"

"We haven't completely moved on sweetie. We've been watching over you, we always will, but we haven't moved on. Plus we never got to say goodbye." Mom had tears in her eyes, which caused me to have some start falling.

I hugged her tightly. "I love you, mama." I told her. "I miss you so much." I turned and hugged Dad. "I love you too, daddy."

He gently pushed me away. "We love you too, stay strong for us. We'll always be here for you, even if you can't see us." He told me before waving. They started to fade.

"Wait! No! I'm not ready!" I called but before I could do anything I was sitting up in the desert again. Only difference I was surrounded by William, Epps, Sam and Mikaela while some of the Autobots looked at me over them.

"Ellie!" Will yelled before helping me up. "What happened? You scared us." He told me. I noticed my necklace was still in my hand. I stuffed it into my pocket.

"Something I'll keep to myself," I told him before looking around noticing the absence of Prime. "Where's Optimus?" I ask. I walked out of the circle to see a fallen JetFire. I sighed before looking up at the sky in time to see the ending result of the Harvester exploding.

I ran to the spot that showed Optimus falling into pillars with The Fallen. "Kick his ass!" I yell. I noticed some of the soldiers and bots look at me before looking back at the battle.

"Die, like your brothers!" The Fallen yelled. Surprisingly, we could hear everything perfectly.

"They were your brothers, too." I saw Megatron on top of the pillars looking down at the fight, I assume, since the pillars were in the way.

We saw Optimus fly out with both Megs and Fallen before Megs took Prime on for a fight. Bad idea on his part seeing as he got shot in the face by his own gun. Then being sent through the air by Optimus shooting him.

"Starscream!" We all heard Megs yell.

We heard the battle between Prime and Fallen continue. When Optimus said the next lines I said them with him.

"You picked the wrong planet! Give me your face." Optimus then punches through The Fallen's chest, taking his spark.

"I rise. You fall." Optimus Prime said standing tall.

"HELL YES!" I scream, jumping up and down. I wondered briefly why my arm wasn't hurting but later I'd find out Ratchet gave me something for the pain. Good 'ole Ratchet.

We stood by and watched at Optimus walked toward us with all of JetFire's parts falling off piece by piece.

I smiled at him before turning and looking at the sunset behind me. Tears came to my eyes again as I thought of my parents.

"I love you guys. Thank you, for being proud of me." I whispered before closing my eyes as a breeze flew through the air.

-----------

"Thank you, Ellie and Sam. For saving my life." Optimus told us as we watched the ocean.

"Welcome. Thank you for believing in us." I told him. I smiled up at him before leaning against his leg and looked back out into the ocean.

---------------------------------------------------

Our races united by a history long forgotten, and a future we shall face... together. I am Optimus Prime. And I send this message so that our pasts will always be remembered. For in those memories, we live on.

'*screams* I finished my second book! Thank you for everyone who read, voted and commented on both of the Sunset books! The third one will be published soon but I'm going to wait and work on Watching Over You for a bit.'
