Hi! Hope you enjoy!

Wheeljack's P.O.V

"How many?"

Ryan tapped the floor with his foot. "Two. Just normal guards. Not Megatron."

Slowly, I stood to my pedes and made my way over to the door of our cell. Seconds after I stood, the cell door opened. The vehicon stepped back, knocking into his partner. It took them a few seconds to realise what I was doing before they decided to pull out their weapons.

A few seconds too late.

With great force, I head-butted the first vehicon, knocking him off balance and ramming into the second. Ryan was already out of the cell, stepping away from the fight. Before either of them could recover, I twisted around and kicked out with my pede, hitting him straight in the face.

He stumbled back into my cell, while the other one swung a punch at me. Dodging, I jumped, pulling my cuffed hands from my back, under my legs, and to the front. Grabbing the Vehicons neck, I twisted. His head snapped, and he fell limp under me.

From beside me, Ryan showed himself.

"That was gruesome." He winced. I rolled my optics as I took the key to my cuffs and struggled to undo myself.

"Why did you look? Or whatever you say you do." With my hands free, I picked up the Vehicon and tossed him into my cell with the other. Locking the door, I turned and scooped the small mech into my hand and rushed down the hall towards the interrogation room.

"I couldn't help but take a peek." Ryan complained, crossing his arms in defiance. "The sounds were interesting."

When we reached the end of the hall, I stopped, placing him on the ground and letting him tap his foot against the ground. Seconds later, he nodded. "All clear to the right, then a left. But in about thirty seconds, a small group of guards will be passing the interrogation room, hurry. And don't drop me."

Picking him up, I smirked, knowing he couldn't see it, but couldn't hold the sarcasm from my voice. "Wouldn't dream of it..." Just as Ryan said, thirty seconds later, a group of vehicons marched down the hallway, turning left instead of right, where I was pressed against the wall.

As we entered, Ryan spoke up. "Oh, and there is someone else in here-"

"Autobot?" A voice sneered. Arachnid. I saw her, hanging from the ceiling just as I had been before. Energon ran down her body, but she still managed a smirk. "What are you doing here?"

"Not helping you." I snapped, grabbing my grenade and katanas that were still hanging against the wall.

"What will it take you to cut me loose?"

"Nothing. Let's go Ryan." quickly, the boy tapped the ground and looked up at me.

"Vehicons coming close. We have to wait a few minutes. Then you take a right..." he tapped the floor again. "Take another right... and straight-"

"So you are like the other human?" Arachnid questioned. "Different. Man, this ship is somehow swarming with them now..." Twisting around, I placed my Katana against her throat.

"What do you know about Hope?" I growled lowly. She smirked.

"The human girl? I can't say, since I and Starscream last attacked her. Why do you think I'm here?"

"Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill you now."

"I know the human girl is being experimented on in the Med bay right now, as we speak. Word gets around fast among the Decepticons. But I guess Megatron wanted to keep it quiet around you."

"We can go now." Ryan said. Picking him up, I growled again at Arachnid before rushing out and running down the hallway. Right, right, straight. Right into the engine room. One Vehicon guarding the area turned to me a second to late, and I stabbed him before turning to Ryan.

"You like explosions?"

He frowned. "I don't. But I don't have a choice, do I?"

Placing the grenade in the power source of the entire Nemesis, I grinned before scooping him up again and running out, my remote in hand. It wouldn't be big, but enough of a distraction to grab Hope and get the frag out of here.

I hope I'm not too late.

Makeshift's P.O.V

"Be careful, Jackie. Good luck." Bulkhead murmured. I threw him a fake smirk. Honestly, the amount of contact I have to make with the Autobots physically sickened me. But it was fun how they could be so easily played.

"I don't need luck." I stated, patting the grenade next to me. In my servos, I held a box of several other grenades I was to set up inside the mine. The Autobots wanted to get Megatron's attention. I would get his attention, all right.

This would be so easy.

Quickly, I snuck to the side of the mountain, hugging the rocky figure as I watched some Vehicons walk past. Honestly, they weren't the smartest. When they disappeared around the corner, I hurried inside and stopped when I spotted Soundwave.

He tilted his head, giving me a questioning glance. "They are here. I'm sure you already know that-" I spoke in my normal voice.

"Destroy the Autobot scum!" Soundwave played Megatrons voice before nodding his approval and opening a groundbridge, walking inside into it. After setting the bombs, I grinned, tossing my remote from one servo to the other.

I was beginning to enjoy explosives as much as the Autobot Wheeljack.

"Wheeljack-" Optimus began over the comm link.

"We can outnumber them. And the size of this mine is incredible!" I hurried out the front and snuck around the Vehicons once again, to the spot the others were hiding. "Just Vehicons. We can take them. Right Bulkhead?"

"Right." Bulkhead smirked, changing his servo into the familiar wrecking ball and hurrying forward with the others as Optimus stepped out into view, immediately taking fire on my fellow decepticons. They didn't even notice the fact that I didn't follow. Behind me, A groundbridge opened up and Soundwave stepped out again.

I grinnged before activating the gernades.

"Let's get this party started!"

************************************

Optimus' P.O.V

"Optimus!" Ratchet's voice sounded urgent over the comm link.

"This is not the right time, old friend." I grunted, bringing my sword down onto a Decepticon before watching him drop to he ground, off-lined.

"I have received the test results back on Wheeljack! Don't trust him, it's not really Wheeljack." Immediately, I stopped in my tracks. Now, all the Autobots were inside the mouth of the cave, staring down the vehicons inside that momentarily paused at the sight of us.

Then I noticed something. Wheeljack wasn't with us.

"It is not Wheel-" A beeping sound from all around us caused me to look around us, and finally, I noticed the small gernades implanted into the rock. Waiting for us. Arcee's eyes went wide and Bulkhead took a step back.

"Scrap."

And explosion sounded, and I was slammed against the wall of the cave, my optics dimming from the impact before everything went black.

***************************************

Hope's P.O.V

The first thing I woke up to was a sudden jerk. A loud boom echoed in my ears, and panic took over. What happened? Why am I strapped down? Why does my body hurt? God, my head hurts...I

"Someones awake." A taunting voice from my side said. I found Knockout standing next to me, a frown on his face. Another explosion sounded, sending the mech to one side. "For the love of... that wrecker will pay-" he grumbled.

Wrecker? Did Bulkhead somehow get here? That makes no sense... But the thought gave me hope. Someone was looking for me? What if they don't find me, though? "I have to get out of here..." I mumbled, wincing as Knockout unstrapped me and held me in his hand.

"Lord Megatron?" Knockout asked over the comm link. After a few moments, he cursed. "Communications are down." With a few strides, he was out of the med bay and down the hallway with me in his servo. The pain was suddenly subsiding, and suddenly I felt stronger. My skin, I now notices, was somewhat its normal color.

The blotches and red marks were slowly disappearing. Thank God my healing abilities were coming back. After a few minutes of running, we were in the throne room. Megatron was no where to be seen. I sent a prayer of thanks to the sky.

My nerves were about to send me off edge, and I felt like my skin was buzzing with energy. "Where are they when you need them?" Knockout complained. From his right, the silhouette of a body appeared from the darkness of the room. I narrowed my eyes, trying to get a better look.

Curse this depressing lighting.

Knockout pulled out his weapon, aiming it at the second decepticon. Wheeljack just smirked, a servo on one hip at he stared down Knockout. "On edge, Doctor? The human is awake. We need to inform Lord Megatron and Shockwave."

With a deep sigh, Knockout lowered the aim of his blaster and glared at the mech. "You can't do that. Not in these circumstances. The prisoner has escaped. Wheeljack nodded grimly, holding out his hand.

"I will watch over the human. Communications are down. Find Megatron and Shockwave. I will be waiting." Without hesitation, Knockout handed me over and ran back the way we had come. Wheeljack smirked down on me.

I glared, a hatred rising up in me. "Let me go." I whispered angrily, struggling. He laughed squeezing me. Letting out a pained yelp and shutting my eyes, I tried to suck in air, but found none.

"You still angry at me? You would think I'd be forgiven by now." Wheeljack joked, a smirk on his face. He sighed dramatically. The room spun as he tossed me from hand to hand. I took the opportunity to open my wings and stop myself mid-air.

A metal hand grabbed my wing, pinching it in between two digits. My second wing flailed desperately in attempts to get away. "Put me DOWN!" I shouted. A chuckle was the response I got and then I was dropped.

With a thump, I landed on the ground. Surprisingly, it didn't hurt like I thought it should have. The tingling I felt all over my body continued as I stumbled up, my nerves on edge and fear in my mind as Wheeljack's holoform appeared next to me. With a yelp, I sprang away from him.

"GET AWAY!" I yelled, covering my head with my arms and folding my wings over my body.

"You are so pathetic." Wheeljack laughed. "What does Megatron even see in you? Jeez, you look like you could snap in half in my hold." he grabbed my wrist, twisting it painfully in at a strange angle. It didn't snap like it should have, but the pain was unbearable anyways.

"Your hurting me! Get away from me! I thought you were my friend!" I whimpered.

"They all thought that. But guess what? The Autobots are probably rusting away in the cave I left them in. Who knows how long they will survive without energon, Hmm? Or maybe they have already off-lined? Who knows, Bulkhead could last for a while." A chuckle. "He is a strong fellow."

"Y-your lying." I spit out, my anger rising. "They were your friends! I thought you cared about Bulkhead! About me!?" I cried, throwing a weak punch at him. He dodged easily and caught my wrist, laughing. He held his stomach with his other hand while trying to hold in tears of amusement.

"Where did you learn to fight? Jeez, your so sloppy." Wheeljack rolled his eyes again while I angrily threw my fist at him again. Every time, he dodged and simply laughed. He lifted his knee and brought it up to my gut and hitting it hard.

With a groan, I fell to the ground. The throbbing in my head was somehow getting worse and worse, while my body suddenly physically ached from the pain I had just endured. I still felt unbelievably strong, though. Strong enough to feel the need to fight back, no matter how bad I was at it. Strong enough to gather my courage and force myself to stand again, turning to him completely.

He hummed to himself, glancing around as he tapped his foot. "I'm guessing it will take a while to get communications back up and have the prisoner back in his cell. So why don't we have a talk, hmm?" he whispered, grabbing both my wrists.

"What have we been doing all this time?" I hissed, yanking away.

"You are stubborn, you know that? That's what I like about you, Hope." The way he said my name sent chills down my spine. "You know, I learned a lot about you in the time we spent together. Your torn apart. Alone. Hopeless." He smirked. "How ironic is that? Your Hopeless, Hope." he continued, leaning down and moving his face to the crook of my neck.

"G-get off of me! Please, Wheeljack, let go of me-" He grabbed both of my wrists in one hand and the other hand held my neck now. I gasped and sputtered, sucking in as much air as I could. He placed a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Your so weak. You know that? I hope Megatron can turn you into what he wants you to be, because your pretty pathetic right now." He kissed me, and I screamed. Why can't he just let me go? Destroying my family and taking away my life wasn't enough?

"Your so beautiful, Hope." he murmured into the kiss. Salty tears poured down my face and onto my lips where his lips were at, making him chuckle. I screamed again and lifted my leg, kneeing him in the place where it would hurt the most.

Letting out a curse in his own language, he released me and I immediately wiped off my mouth. He tasted disgusting. "I hate you!" I yelled at him, taking off into the sky. He growled and disappeared, his real body moving towards me as I flew away from him.

Yanking out a katana, he swiped the air next to me. The edge of its blade touched the tip of one of my feathers at tip of my wing and it fell without a sound. "I would stop right there. You aren't getting away from this or from me." he said lowly.

"I'm still going to try!" I spat back at him, flapping once and going higher into the air. Not as high as I wanted to, though, and he jumped, grabbing me before I could dodge. And then I was choking again. Seriously. The third time in a matter of five minutes...

"I hope they cause you as much pain as possible." Wheeljack hissed at me, squeezing me again to the point I knew my bones should be breaking. But they didn't. I felt unnaturally strong. Why aren't I going squish? I couldn't help but wonder. Not that I was complaining.

But I still need air.

"P-please!" I wheezed. Wheeljack's cold stare was on me for a few minutes before his gaze was lifted to the door, where the sound of heavy footfalls were growing louder and louder. Running. Someone was running this way.

Wheeljack was suddenly very alert, and he held his katana in a ready stance. Seconds of silence followed, and I let in a breath as Wheeljack allowed me to breath. Turning, Wheeljack twisted around to get a better view of the throne room. Looking for anything out of place.

"Let me go!" I shouted up at him when his attention was on me again. He squeezed. I screamed. And then, in the matter of seconds, my world was spun out of control. Literally. A large mass slammed into Wheeljack, sending him flying backwards and me into the air, where I opened my wings.

Letting in a deep breath, I lowered myself to the ground, landing on my hands and knees in a crawling position. Wheeljack was in a similar position, but he was up in an instant. Facing his opponent.

"Touch her again, and I will off-line you." The voice boomed. Wheeljack smiled, while I left my mouth agape. How... who... why... Wheeljack, well, the new Wheeljack, winked at me. A sad smile was plastered on his face.

"Sorry it took me so long kid." He said softly before directing his attention on Wheeljack. Wait... I held my head in my hands, blinking a few times before looking at the two again. This couldn't be happening. It was like my worst nightmare coming to life.

"Wondered how long it would take for you to escape, Autobot." One Wheeljack sneered before he slid a guard over his mouth and lunged. I screamed, stumbling back in sudden realization as my shock began to pass.

"O..o-oh my God..."

Two of them. There were two Wheeljack's.

******************************************************

Sorry it took so long, guys. And yet again, I made the chapter end on a cliffhanger. My bad. ;) I have a habit of making longer books because of how I end my chapter. I hope ya'll are okay with me having a long book. I'm still not sure how it's going to end... Anyways, thanks for reading. Forgive any mistakes, and just to let you know, I've made a code word.

If I have a mistake in a chapter, just comment "Blubber"

No reason. I'm just a dork. And it would be funny to get a whole lot of comments that just say "Blubber".
