"Ok we need to get out of here." You informed as both Bee and Hound share a small look before both Autobots nodded and transformed into their alt modes.

Both Hound and Bee pull into the streets that were filled with a sea of panicked people. Cade took the lead as you followed close behind him.

You both stayed close to Hounds side of his alt mode and the team navigated slowly and careful through the large crowd of terrorized people.

As Hound turned the corner both you and Cade walked from behind the rear of Hounds alt mode, in attempts to have as much coverage as possible. "All right, come on! Come on, let's go!" Cade demanded as you all stuck behind Cade.

"Oh my god.." Darcy barely managed out as the streets of China filled with screams and terror.

"Bee go!" Cade shouted through the chaos as you stayed right behind him. Just as Bee moved on ahead of you; four missiles were fired throwing a car in its wake and causing people to run in all different directions.

Your (e/c) eyes widened as new panic uproars as people were screaming left to right as many ran out of the way from upcoming missiles.

"Come on, we got to move! Come on! Let's move!" You shouted as you guided the whole team through the black smoke and dust that filled the area.

As you ran blindly through the smoke Cade spun around. "Where's Tessa? Tessa, get over here!" Cade shouted as your team took cover between a corner of what was left of a stone wall.

"Stay behind me! I'm covering you!" Hound called out to us as he hovered over your 'hide out'. Swiftdagger cut around the corner of the wall your team was hiding behind, "don't you dare move," you arched a brow as she sighed, "alright...move if needed just don't die."

"If I stop covering you, it means I'm dead. But that ain't gonna happen." Hound pitched in as two missiles were fired from above that nearly took off his head.

He quickly turned around and fired at the mech that was up on that building who fired at him. "Take that!" He shouted as he emptied a whole clip of his machine gun into the damn prototype.

Both Bee and Hound fired at the prototypes. Each taking them out one by one while also trying to not step on any of the panicking people running around them.

"I'm a wicked warrior robot!" Hound shouted, dropping one of his guns that was empty and activated his missiles.

"Goddamn!" He grunted out as he got shot in the shoulder. You peeked around the corner, your (e/c) eyes widened. They're out numbered!

You and the team watched helplessly as the Autobots did their best to fight back but with no avail more prototypes kepts coming from all sorts of directions.

It was complete utter chaos. You watched as both Swiftdagger and Bee worked as the perfect duo. She would lunge towards yet another Stinger as Bee would cover fire, having her back at all times.

You often wondered what life would be like if you were an Autobot rather than a human. Would our relationship be better off? An explosion erupted, rebounding within your skull; snapping back to reality.

"We got hostile's coming down the street!" Hound shouted as he continued to fire his missiles before rolling over a car and began to fire some more. "Go!" He shouted at your team, signalling it was time to move for better cover.

"Come on! We gotta move now!" Cade shouted as you ran out from behind the large dragon like statue. "Come on! This way!" You yelled out as your team ran for cover to where both Bee and Hound were firing.

The five of you took cover behind the pillars as more prototypes charged forward, firing at you with their guns and missiles.

"Ah shit. Bee twelve o'clock. Cover fire!" Swiftdagger shouted as he beeped in reply, before stepping out from the pillar that he was using for cover and fired his little missiles that unsheathed around his wrists.

"We're surrounded!" Joshua cried out as you snapped your head to glared at him. "No really?!" You snarled as Cade too glared over at him, "you. Shut up. This is because of you."

"Hurry up! This way!" You shouted as they all got up and ran after you. "Hustle, hustle, hustle!" Joshua screamed as you could only roll your eyes. If it wasn't for that fact that you and your team were currently fighting for your lives; you would've throat punched him by now.

"MISSLE!" Cade shouted as your team quickly ducked as it whizzed past you and blew up the structure behind. As the smoke cleared, the team darted into what seemed to be the only structure that was left standing.

"Oh this the perfect place to hide. A big glass box! Nobody will ever find us here! That's just-ARGH!!" Joshua snarled as he paced down the lane of tables before destroyed a set of dominos that was set up at one of the tables.

"We're getting boxed in. We're getting flanked everywhere!" Hound shouted as he took out a few more robots.

"Help me out here!" Hound shouted as he grabbed the prototype as it charged towards him, once he grabbed hold of it, he began to throw it around like a ragdoll.

"Kill anything that moves!" Hound added on as he continued to fire at upcoming Decepticons. "Come on, Cade, shoot!" Hound shouted at him. The two of you locked eyes for a moment before he grabbed hold of his gun and began to fire.

"In coming!" Hound screams as a missile hits the concrete close to the window causing the glass to shatter. You gasped as the waves from the explosion crashed into you like a ton of bricks. You wheezed as you go flying backwards.

Everything was hazy as ash filled the air. You groaned as you forced your body to roll to its side. "Optimus..." you wheezed out your vision began to blur.

"Is there something on my face?" You asked as you rushed to get a napkin in hopes to get rid of the evidence of whatever food was left after you had just devoured it.

You were a little worried about letting Optimus have the kitchen for once. So far he hasn't had the best luck in cooking, which is why you took out the  batteries in the fire alarm to save you the headache.

But tonight was not like any other. You still don't know how long he must've been practicing, or reading every cook book known to man-kind to become such a pro in such little time.

He had manged to make most of your favorite meals and god did it all taste heavenly. You were practically drooling when he first showed you the entire set up for dinner.

He chuckled softly, reaching over to gently caress your cheek. "Don't worry, there's nothing on your face...I just like admiring you..." he said softly, his words instantly making you blush.

He always has a way with words, and never failed to make you feel loved, wanted, needed, cherished, safe, and last of all beautiful. "I'm sorry that we haven't had many nights like this... with the recent spike of engeron reportings I-"

You gently rest your hand on top of his, squeezing tenderly as you looked up at him. "You don't have to explain anything, Optimus. I understand."

The two of you have both been severely busy with work. Often times he'd be away from home for long periods of times but would always make up for it with check ins, phone calls and whenever he's free; he comes right home to you without letting anything get in the way.

No matter how crazy your lives are, you both equally make up the time for one another. You knew from day one that this is what life would be like for the two of you. Optimus is the leader of the Autobot team; that being said it comes with loads of responsibilities.

Sometimes you wished he could be with you longer, or take a day off every once in a while but no Decepticon is going to wait around. "You're lost in thought again aren't you?" Optimus asked, snapping you back to reality.

"You know me so well."

He stood up, and walked over to you with a hand extended towards you. You smiled, resting your hand in his as he pulled you close and pressed his lips against yours.

It was moments like this that meant the world for the both of you. Given the time you both are apart for long periods of time, when it came to these intimate moments; you both deeply craved one another..

"I love you.." he whispered softly against your lips as you pulled him closer, kissing him deeply; "I love you too..."

"(Y/N)!"

Your eyes snapped opened as Cade was frantically checking you for any serious injuries while trying to get a response from you to wake up.

"Cade?" You croaked as your forced your eyes to focus as everything was still very hazy. "(Y/n)!" Tessa cried out with relief as she scrambled over to you. You forced a smile as Cade helped you sit up.

Your body was throbbing and you were seeing stars. This is such bullshit.. you cursed mentally as you gritted your teeth. "You okay?" Cade asked as you locked your gaze with his nodded.

"I'm still in one peice so I think I'm good."

Tessa snorted out a laugh as you pulled her into her a side hug. Relief washed over you as she was unharmed and so was Shane.

"I can't believe I'm putting my life in your hands!" Joshua yelled out in anger as he crawled out from under the table he was hiding. If only he was the one to be severely injured...

Cade exhaled sharply as he quickly stood up and stormed right towards him, his eyes full of rage. Cade was also fed up with his stupidity. He unstrapped the gun from his shoulder, "okay here. Be my guest. Go ahead and take the gun." Cade spat as Joshua's eyes widened.

"Go on. Take it." Cade added on, handing over his gun. "No I don't want the gun." Joshua replied all too quickly, his eyes filled with panic, "come on, you can lead." Cade encouraged as Joshua shook his head. "No, I don't want the gun." He replied, rasing his hands up in surrender.

"Then stay in under there and shut up!" Both Cade and you snapped back, Cade rolled his eyes before doing back to firing at the prototypes. "All right. You're good with the gun. So you keep it."

Hound grunted as he used a yellow truck as a shield while he was being fired at while he used his other servo to fire his gun at Decepticons.

"Running out of guns and ammo!" Hound shouted as he tossed the yellow truck at one of the prototype's before he went flying against the wall from one of them firing a missle at him.

He grunted as he fell against the train tracks above him before falling onto his side.

"Come and get some! You're all gonna die!" He snarled at the prototypes as he fired at them with his large alien hand gun.

"Cade look out!" You yelled out as one red prototype ran behind the pillar. Before it could fire, Cade fired the gun out of its grasp. It whirred angrily as it tried to get up which Cade then shot it again from the back of its helm, killing it instantly.

"Good shooting Cade!" Hound cheered as he fired at more Cons. "I'm like a fat ballerina!" Hound cried out as he took one down by hitting it a few times with his gun.

"Who takes scalps and silt throats!" He added on as he did a quick roll on the ground before shooting at two more prototypes.

You watched in awe as Hound and Cade took down the Decepticons.

Hound snarled grabbing the scrawny green prototype with his large knife. "Got your fortune cookie! Come here you little punk."

Joshua huffed as he started to drag the bag which held the Seed. "Where the hell do you think-" before you could finish a large grenade was tossed in the space between you.

"Pull the pin! I'm dying out here!" Hound screamed as Joshua lifted it up as you scrambled to your feet. "Here. Take it! Take it!" Joshua grunted as he tried his best to hold it.

"Little help! Little help!" Hound shouted as you grunted, doing your best to grab the base of the grenade before quickly pulling the pin.

"It's live! It's live, it's live. Take it!" Joshua shouted as it began to tick very fast. "What do you want me to do with it?!" You snapped back as he stared at you in horror.

"Just throw it!" He shouted as Hound got closer to the shattered window. "Give, give, give!" He demanded as scrambled to give to it him as fast as possible.

In moments Hound ran forward, throwing the grenades at four up coming robots which also blew up the small building.

"Got some bad news, Cade. I'm out of ammo, and out of ideas!" Hound shouted out as he pushed a few pillars against more prototypes.

"We gotta keep fighting Hound!" You yelled out as your heart was now racing as the panic began to surface. 'Optimus where are you?!' You cried out through the bond, wouldn't he be here by now?! Is he okay?!

'(Y/n) are you alright?'

'Optimus! Y-yes I'm okay. Where are you? Hound, Bee and Swiftdagger are running out a fire power and we're surrounded!'

'Are you safe? Where are you? Is Cade and his family safe?'

'Yes we're all okay. We took cover in a nearby building! I don't know our exact location but it's not looking good.'

You heart was racing as tears formed in your eyes. By the looks of things; without Optimus and the rest of the team, the chances of anyone walking out alive looked bleak.

'I'm almost there.'

'I love you.'

'I love you too.'

"Hound look out!" Swiftdagger yelled out as three head prototype that was desgined to look just like Shockwave; lunged at Hound. "Take that!" Hound snarled as he punched one of its helms.

The two of them rolled over each other as Shockwave 2.0 pinned him down. In moments Hound switched his bullet cigar around and fired at the two headed robot. Once it was dead he grunted, shoving it off of him. "Get off me!"

"Get up Hound!" Cade shouted as you all exited the square glass structure. "I can't go on.." He groaned in reply as Swiftdagger rejoined the team with a slight limp. "You gotta keep fighting!" Cade snapped as Hound looked over at the both of you.

"Tanks empty bro."

You sighed, shaking your head sadly. You and the Autobots have been through hell. After years of fighting for the human race they targeted them as enemies. No kidding that they'd be tired of fighting.

"There's more of 'em coming. If you don't get up and fight, we're going to die. Let's go!" Cade snapped angrily as Hound pouted in response.

You snap your head around, eyes nearly bulging out of your head as you hear loud distant roar. Out of nowhere comes a large metal creature, "IS THAT A DINOSAUR?!" You stare in shock as you watch the giant Pteranodon fly into the battlefield.

"ATTACK!" Optimus screamed as the large T-Rex he was riding on snarled, letting flames escape its mouth, causing a few prototypes to go up in flames; cars sent flying in it path.

"OPTIMUS!" You cried as relief washed over you, seeing your sparkmate still in one peice.

"OPTIMUS IS HERE!" Hound shouted as Swiftdagger leaped back into battle, "Bee look out!" He whirred as she lunged forward, taking out the prototype that was charging towards him.

As Swiftdagger charged at more prototypes, Pteranodon swooped down towards Bumblebee, "Bee Jump!" Optimus ordered as Bee did what he was instructed.

Bee whirred as he leaped into the air as the Pteranodon grabbed his arms. Just then yet another Stinger charged towards him, leaping into the air towards Bee. "Bee look out, it's another Stinger!" You yelled out as you watched as it grabbed hold of Bee's leg.

"BUMBLEBEE!" Both you and Swiftdagger yelled out as both bots went airborne.

"Fuck!"

"(Y/n)! You're with me! I'll cover you!" Swiftdagger yelled out as you both jumped right back into battle.

You were worried about the yellow bot, given you both shared the same friend, Sam Witwicky. You both eventually became closer after his death.

He helped you and you helped him. Out of all the chaos that happened after the third war who knows where you'd be without his help when it came to mourning your best friend Sam.

Everything seems to become a blur until from a distance you see the yellow bot come crashing down through the Victoria Secret bus.

He emerges from the bus, holding the severed head of Stinger, the flying DinoBot let out a roar of victory. "I hate cheap knock offs." With delight the Autobot dinosaur chews on the head.

"You scrap head! I thought you were good as dead!" Swiftdagger growled out as Bee removed his face visor and looked down at the both of you.

"Come on *bzzt* guys I can handle *bzzt* my own."

You scoffed, crossing your arms over your chest. You felt like a mother scolding a child at this point but you didn't care during the heat of the moment. Bumblebee could be wreckless sometimes and you did promise Sam that you'd keep an eye on him.

"You're ridiculous, but I'm glad you're okay."

"(Y/N)! where are you?!" You hear Cade yell out as you see him from afar as he was looking for you throughout the wreckage.

"WE'RE OVER HERE!" You yelled out as you ran over to rejoin your team. "You okay?" He asked in between heavy breaths as you sighed, forcing a nod, "yes I'm okay Cade."

He quickly pulls you into a strong embrace. You took in a deep breath and hug him back. You were beyond terrified of the possibilities of where this battle will leave the both of you.

The thought of loosing Cade, Tessa or even Shane made you sick to your stomach. You couldn't bare loosing them, with the amount of years spent living with them; they became part of your family, and you loved them dearly.

"I'm not going anywhere Cade don't you worry."

"Its my job to worry, kid."

You laughed as you both broke the hug, you rested a hand on his cheek and smiled, "don't worry about me Cade. I'll have fighting an alien war experience in the bag. Like a total of a few years."

He smiled just as he was to say another word Tessa came barreling through, hugging you tightly. "(Y/N!) You're okay!"

You hugged her back and smiled, "yup still got all my limbs attached!" She laughed as you turn to look at Shane, you both share a nod just as Swiftdagger and the rest of the bots rejoined your group.

Just then Optimus appeared, anger framed his face, his beautiful blue optics filled with rage. You looked over at Optimus who was seated on the backstrut of the large robot Dinobot.

As soon as your (e/c) eyes locked with his own, his gaze softened as his large shoulders sagged with relief.

"Optimus.."

Without any hesitation you walked towards him. The dinobot turned its large helm to look at you. Its nostrils flared as its red optics burned into yours. You smiled softly, showing no fear as your hand reached out to touch his nose.

Instantly the Dinobot pushed against your hand. You looked up at Optimus with a soft smile. The dinobot edged you closer; signaling to climb aboard.

Without a moment later, Optimus extended a large servo towards you. "I'm so glad you're okay." You said softly as tears weld in your eyes.

"Likewise." He said softly, yet his voice strained from battle.

You find your sitting spot by that little spot by his shoulder to the nape of his neck. Moments later, Joshua comes into view.

"Awesome job!" Joshua cheered with delight as Prime glared down at him. "You." He growled as he pointed his sword at him.

"Who?" Joshua asked as both you and Cade glared daggers at him before Cade aggressively pushing him forward, "You."

"Step forward," Prime demanded.

"Wait why?"

"Your science will be responsible for humanity's extinction." Optimus Prime sneered as Joshua raised his hands in defeat.

"All right. I know that you're sensitive to this whole bioethical dilemma."

"Maybe all he wants to hear you say is that some things should never be invented." Cade spat as the Dino Bot stepped forward letting out a furious roar exposing his sharp teeth.

Joshua let out a shriek before letting out a grunt. "Ok..I'm sorry for what I did." He squeaked as you couldn't help but smirk at how terrified he was.

"We'll lead you out of the city. Get that Seed safely to the hills." Prime exclaimed as he brought his large servo towards you to where you were sitting on his shoulder.

You didn't want to leave his side. You were beyond terrified of what would come next in this battle. Optimus could hear your rapid heart beats through the bond. He understood your fear; as much as he didn't want to admit, he was scared too.

"(Y/n)..."

"I know you can't promise me this...but please...please promise me that you'll come back." You forced out as you did your best to stop the tears from rolling down your cheeks.

There was a moment of silence before he finally replied, "I promise. I promise I'll come back for you."

You turned your head and pressed your lips against the metal framing that made up his cheek. "I love you, Optimus."

"I love you too." He said softly as you finally climbed onto his servo. You turned to look up at him, his blue optics burning into your (e/c) eyes.

"I promise you will not loose me again."

You forced a nod, taking in a deep inhale before he finally placed you down. You turned to look at Grimlock, his ruby red optics burned into your own hard gaze.

"You better have his back."

The Dinobot flared steam from its nostrils and nodded. You hated the fact that you couldn't go with them, but you knew you wouldn't be much help. He needed to focus on the task at hand. You being there could just be a distraction.

You watched with tear filled eyes as they charged off. "Come on, let's go." Cade said as you forced and nod and followed.

Cade and Shane took the lead as Drift guided us to a old looking SUV that was covered in vegetables.

"He almost ate me!" Joshua shrieked as you rolled your eyes, yeah what a shame he didn't. You thought to yourself.

Cade jumped into the driver's seat, starting up the truck. "All right were good!" You climbed into the back seat with Darcy, and Joshua while Tessa got into the passenger seat

As Cade got ready to drive. Shane then leaned over and grabbed the steering wheel. "Get out of the seat. And you're one lucky dad to have me." He exclaimed as Cade nodded, "okay Lucky Charms. You got that. You're the driver. Let's go."
