The Decepticons wasted no time, lighting their weapons ablaze as they fired back against the invading Autobot forces.

I took cover behind the computer console, ducking every time I felt the shock of a bullet pierce against the metal of the large device.

I took a quick peek to the side, seeing Soundwave race down the stairwell as he shot down the Autobot flyers with his auto-rifle, one even exploding after being struck in the head. I turned around and looked up, seeing Megatron as he stood his ground at the top of the balcony, standing near me as he took out one of the snipers.

The sounds of heavy footsteps caught my attention as I turned to the left to see two ground troopers running up towards Megatron, their guns charging.

"Whoa, look ou---" Realizing what I was about to say, I quickly covered my mouth to seize my speech.

But I wasn't quick enough. Megatron heard my outburst, and looked over to the side to see the two Autobots open fire at him. The Decepticon leader summoned his mace, using it as a shield as he took a step forward, swinging his melee weapon and knocking the two Autobots off of the balcony.

I breathed in and out heavily, my heart racing as I glanced back up at the Decepticon leader.

"Stay put. I shall deal with you when this is over." He ordered, jumping down after the two troopers and squishing them beneath his feet.

I cringed at the sight with a hiss before backing up, just missing a shot from the other sniper as I hid back behind the computer.

"Autobots, incoming!" Soundwave shouted.

I took a glance over the balcony to see a giant door open, with a horde of Autobots storming inside.

"These guys really don't---AHH!"

Breakdown seemed to show up out of nowhere as he scooped me up in one hand, and firing back at the Autobots with the other, as he ran down the stairwell.

The Decepticons took care of the remaining Autobots as they proceeded through the small hallway, stopping at the security door.

"Soundwave, trace Zeta Prime's broadcast signal." Megatron ordered.

"Commencing scan..." Soundwave spoke as a holographic screen appeared before him.

"Camilla, when you deceived us earlier, I had the intention of destroying you then and now, but sense you willingly saved my life, I will give you one more chance to redeem yourself." Megatron explained, glancing my way. "I'll ask you again; Where is the Omega Key?"

My eyes widened with a hint of fear as I glanced over, seeing Breakdown aim his gun right at my head. I still had the protective energon shield suit that Soundwave gave me, but I was pretty sure a close range shot like that would most defiantly kill me.

But how do I not know that if I die in the game, I'll just wake right back up in the real world, my world, and finally be back home again!

That's the thing though... I don't.

I so badly wanted to get out of here. I didn't want to keep helping the Decepticons anymore! If anything, I want to help the Autobots, that way I could somehow clean up all the mess I've been causing for them.

But right now, I can't do that. My life is hanging in the balance.

So I placed my hands on my headset, shutting my eyes once more as I concentrated.

The image of the Omega Key flashed in my mind, then a picture of Zeta followed with it, and then, nothing.

When I opened my eyes and looked at Megatron, he seemed to be very, very impatient with me. "Well?"

"Well... Zeta Prime stated that he was protecting the key now, right? Once Soundwave traces his signal..." She gulped, speaking slowly. "...and you find him, you find the Omega Key."

There was silence among the Decepticons for a brief moment until Soundwave's holographic screen vanished, his chest flashing.

"Megatron, Zeta Prime's location is 12 clicks north from here." Soundwave explained.

After hearing what he had to say, Megatron looked back over at me, just standing there and watching me. I was so nervous and scared my hands were sweating. But then he waved his hand at Barricade, and with a simple loosen of his grip, the Decepticon scout dropped me to the floor, releasing me from his grasp.

"Blast the wall!" Megatron ordered.

The three Decepticons shot the giant door down as they ran full speed a head through the hallway on the other side, as I was forced to try and keep up with them as I was caught between them, and the remaining Decepticon troopers that survived.

They ran up a ramp, Megatron blasting away a Autobot who was stationed at a computer.

When I reached the top with the rest of the troops, I looked out on a head to see metal tracks below the platform, and they kept going down a steep tunnel.

This looked like some type of subway station!

"Into the tunnel Decepticons, and try not to get crushed by the trains." Megatron cautioned.

"So this IS a subway!" I spoke a loud.

"You're joking, right?" Breakdown retorted.

"Yes Breakdown, I'm famous for my sparkling sense of humor... NOW GET MOVING BEFORE I SMASH YOU MYSELF!" Megatron ordered.

The scout sighed before he glanced down in my direction. "Come on fleshling," Breakdown picked me up in his hands again, tossing me up in the air as he transformed into his vehicle mode. I landed in the drivers seat before he lowered the roof over me, teeing me up in a series of seat belts. "You're riding with me."

Breakdown followed closely behind Megatron as Soundwave trailed behind. I glanced up to see trains making their way through the tunnel up on the roof, zooming by us.

"Hey Soundwave, wanna race?!" Breakdown challenged.

"Negative." Soundwave answered as he used his turbo boost to jump up and soar through by a security laser grid.

"Show off." Breakdown grumbled as he slammed on the accelerator, catching up to him.

I couldn't help but grin a little at the antics of the two Decepticons. That's one way of getting the Decepticon scout to shut up.

Breakdown raced up along a ramp, flying right over a speeding train before landing back on the tracks and accelerating forward.

"There, that station over there is where we will break into the lower levels of Iacon." Megatron spoke up.

"What? That's it?!" Breakdown whined as he pulled over into the station. "I was kind of having fun!" he transformed into his robot mode, making me jump into the air.

When it looked like he was about to catch me, he willingly moved his hand away, making me fall to the floor below with a loud 'THUD'.

"Hey!" I growled, shaking a fist at him.

"Oops, my mistake." He shrugged sarcastically.

Megatron and Soundwave caught up to the scout, transforming into their robot modes as I pushed myself up to my feet. I could feel my entire body throbbing from the fall, but I didn't see any bruises or signs of blood leaking out of me. This protective suit that Soundwave made for me is really working out.

Whether I like it or not.

This time it was Soundwave's turn to 'babysit' me as he picked me up this time as the three Decepticons, followed by the just now catching up troops made their way up the stairwell and into the lower parts of the city of Iacon.

"Megatron, Omega Key detected. We should proceed to the Logistics Station." Soundwave explained.

"Excellent, the Omega Key awaits." Megatron smirked.

The three of them made their way through the station, avoiding incoming trains that pulled in for their stops. It kind of left like that "Subway Surfers" game I have on my phone.

Before I looked we were going to make it out, the last train in the last set of tracks came to a halt, the doors opening up as Autobot troopers came running outside.

I was beginning to wonder why it had been quiet for the last while.

"Show no mercy!" Megatron shouted as he and the rest of the Decepticons open fired.

While I still had my headphones on, I raised my hands up to them, pressing the headset against my ears to try to block out the sounds of the rapid gun fire. That noise was really starting to irritate and even scare me a little.

Once those Autobots were dealt with and the Decepticons stormed across through the train, more Autobots raced down the exit ramp, coming in at full speed.

Soundwave then tossed me up high into the air. I yelped at the sudden sensation as I turned my body around, looking down to see Soundwave and the rest of the Decepticons take out the Autobots with ease. When it was over, Soundwave dashed forward, reaching his hand out and caught me.

"At least Soundwave caught me this time." I grumbled, sticking my tongue out at Breakdown.

He replied with a bone chilling glare in my direction before the Decepticons made their way up the ramp. Once we were finally out of the subway system, I looked up into the red sky to see laser and blaster fire soaring all over the place. Autobot and Decepticons ships and flyers coming in from all directions.

More Autobots were taking form up at the catwalks above and on the ground. When it looked like we weren't going to make it, the some of a rocket of some sorts caught my attention. I looked up to see two giant purple rockets soar through the sky and crash right into a building just down the street from us, where the Autobots were stationed at.

Dark energon began spiking out of the rockets, completely demolishing the building and the Autobots inside. Not only that, but because of the attack, the building tumbled down, crashing right into the catwalk, taking out the rest of the Autobots with it.

Once they were taking care of, the three Decepticons made their way inside, running across a bridge that connected itself with another building. As we were running, Breakdown came to a halt, pointing out something.

"Look, it's Brawl! He's surrounded!"

The rest of us came to a halt and looked out the window ourselves. At first it seemed like the Decepticon warrior was getting his tailpipe handed to him, but then with a loud roar, he pushed the few Autobots off of him, and set his gun a blaze, taking them out, as well as whacking one in the face with his weapon when the trooper came to close for comfort.

The three Decepticons jumped down from the bridge as they assisted their fellow Decepticon in taking out the rest of the Autobot forces in the area.

When the area was clear, Soundwave placed me down on the ground as the four of us regrouped with Brawl who was waiting for us at a set of white and blue doors.

"How is my war going, Brawl?" Megatron questioned the warrior.

"The Autobots have dug in, and our precious air commander won't provide support." Brawl explained.

"I told you he's a coward." I smirked, crossing my arms.

"Enough excuses!" Megatron barked. "Where is Zeta Prime?"

"He's just beyond those doors, Lord Megatron." Brawl answered, pointing his gun at the set of giant white and blue doors.

Megatron glanced at the door, walking towards it as he stood before the large structure. He flexed his hands out, purple glowing auras appearing as Dark Energon sprouted from the ground, clawing its way through the door.

"Behold, the power of Dark Energon!" He proclaimed as he pulled his hands back, attempting to rip the door apart.

When I say attempted, I REALLY mean attempted. Because the door didn't break lose!

"What?! How is that possible?" Megatron gawked.

I slow clapped, turning my body around to walk away. "Welp, I guess that plan failed, so I'm just gonna go now--"

"Oh no you don't!" Breakdown plucked me from the ground, staring at me with his cold optics. "We're not done yet." 

Suddenly, another giant hologram of Zeta Prime appeared before the Decepticons, standing in front of the giant building. 

"It will take more than a spec of Dark Energon to breach the vault." Zeta spoke. "Surrender now Megatron, and I will consider sparing your life."

"You dare threaten me?!" Megatron barked. 

"So be it Megatron." Zeta replied before the hologram vanished. 

When Megatron turned around, he looked so angry it was like his head was going to pop right off with steam. 

It was actually quite scary.

"Oh boy, here we go..." Breakdown muttered. 

"BRAWL! CALL IN THE DARK ENERGON BOMBERS!" Megatron ordered with a shout. 

"But, Lord Megatron--! That's too much fire power!" Brawl protested.

"DO AS I HAVE ORDERED BRAWL!" Megatron shouted once again. 

The seemed to snap the warrior into attention as he opened his com-link, calling in the bombers. "Bombers, come to these coordinates. Everyone else, CLEAR THE STREET!" 

Everyone ran for cover, hiding inside smaller buildings. I glanced up into the sky, seeing two ships coming into the area. But before they could drop the bombs, two giant ion cannons emerged from the roof of a building not to far from our location. They open fired on the ships, taking out one of the completely. As for the second one, its wing was clipped, and the ship came crashing down to the street below, gliding along the ground before come to a complete stop. 

"Well that was a complete disaster." Breakdown commented. 

"Shut up Breakdown." Megatron growled. "Obviously the bombers are idiots."

"Yeah, sure they are..." I muttered softly, rolling my eyes. 

"For once, we agree on something." Breakdown replied. 

"Lord Megatron! If I may make a suggestion?" Brawl spoke up as the four Decepticons and I ran into another building for cover. "Disabling the anti-aircraft guns, would open a way in for our air support."

"An excellent thought Brawl." Megatron complemented. "Carry it out."
