Chase was in utter disbelief at the sight before him. The small town of Griffin Rock destroyed from a Decepticon attack.

To his relief the humans, as well as most of his team, have survived the attacks.

All except one

His conjux

His wife

His other half

The woman he raised two beautiful sparklings with.

Natalie

Goddess of Good

Princess of the Universe

Love of his life

Just laying there

Lifeless

A hole planted directly on her back.

A hole made by a tyrant

A monster

A mech who caused this damned war

Megatron.

The very mech who retreated when the Autobots started winning the battle.

But he did not leave without making an impact..

Chase sank to his knees when he approached her lifeless body. He reached out and touched her.

She was cold. Very cold.

No pulse

Just silence

Chase finally broke. The tears he had held back coming out as neverending waterfalls.

He cried into her cold and lifeless chest.

"Oh God please no!", he wailed, "You can't do this!"

He sobbed, "You can't leave us!"

"You can't leave me!"

His sobbing never ceased but his outcries began to quiet down, "please..."

"I can't live without you..."

His children, their children, Blurr and Quickshadow, approached their father and embraced him.

The rescue team mourned in silence

Each member wanting to say something

But to no avail...

Everyone weeped

Chase looked up to the sky with tears in his optics

"Please...", he said

"Don't take her away..."
