Iris:

"Iris, wake up."

My one eye peeked, only to see unfamiliar nuzzle to stare down at me. But I soon recognized it, a suspicious rising up in my chest as my body shook up from the ground, as my eyes looked around. Almost, there was no one, but me, Ironhide, Julia, Raf, Twinstrike, Ratchet, and the females and cubs from Solomus Prime's pack.

Not even June, Dana or Agent Fowler aren't here..

I turned to look at Ironhide, who already sighed deeply as he stood on his feet.

"Where's others?" I demanded, knowing by yesterday's odd behaviour of them they had left. "Where's my children?" I growled, stumbling towards the edge until he stepped on my way. I glared at him now.

"I'm in charge here now, which means I'm responsible of you, so don't go running around like you usually do. And let me talk." He calmly explained his statement, which I patiently crossed my arms about. Letting him talk. "Yesterday, yes Galvatron mentioned us something of Unicron's plans by your mate's help, but he also mentioned to keep eye on you."

Really?

Plz nod the sarcasm in my voice.

"What are his plans then?" I groaned, once again my stupid ability was the cause that I couldn't help others. It really pissed me off.

".. He plans to dig something which could chance our current war state." Ironhide stated as he looked over his shoulder at the mountains we were hiding from. "Others, are there to find out what's happening."

My eyes couldn't be wider than that.

"That's suicidal! Unicron is there, and same are his minions!" I yelled out loud, ignoring the fact that Julia and Raf probably woke up. -Yeah, they were sleeping.-

"But also our reinforcements and humans are there. Optimus' plan was to free this time most of the humans."

"By morning?" I questioned with raised eyebrow, he shaked his head.

"Already going there takes time, they strike by night." Ironhide stated, I groaned in annoy.

"Then why are we here?"

"Because you only end up into wrong hands."

"Don't you think that Galvatron back there aren't any danger to me?"

"No."

".. You're an asshole."

"I'll take that as an complement."

JEEZ!?

I sighed in defense as I turned around, still my arms crossed proudly on my chest. Now, I tapped my foot as I stared the seiling. I already knew that the bordness was going to kill me.

"... What if we-?"

"No." Ironhide interrupted me in middle of my question, already probably guessing that I wanted to go sneaking at them. I glared at him as I stumbled forward, then sat down on a rock near our campfire, staring at it now. I took huge breath and let it all out, resting my head on my hands which stayed on my hips.

Be safe then I guess..

Optimus:

"I'm soooo~ excited!" Miko squealed quietly, as she safely stayed on her guardian's back. The whole pack staying hidden in the woods, where no guards seemed to notice them.

"How long till we go?" Alex asked, as he made eye contact with Optimus.

"Couple hours. We still must keep our guard up." Optimus stated, he was taking things rather nicely when he just layed down.

"I believe they're stupid enough to check these places at night." Arcee groaned from beside her mate, which Optimus smiled smally at and licked her cheek once.

"Jeez... to think about where life has brought us?" Agent Fowler groaned as he kept watching the dragons and human workers by binoculars.

"Don't say anything else.." Knockout replied, staying loyally beside his mate for protection.

".. Have to say that I feel bad for leaving Iris like that..." Jack groaned with sigh, everyone quiet down quickly.

".. Hopefully she understands." Bumblebee stated, until something caught his eye down below. "Guys.."

Optimus and others soon looked down, only to see Screamer there with Breakdown.

".. Jackpot." Elita one grinned, when they saw how both of them stumbled into the mountain without getting caught by any of guards.

"Are they working for Unicron?" Tron growled, he seemed pissed when he even heard Starscream's name. After all, he had been abused their mother.

"That makes our job more difficult.." Ultra Magnus groaned as he watched what was going on down below.

"Don't give up yet.." Wheeljack informed, noticing something of the corner of the mountain, where humans had been held captive.

"A hole?" Miko raised her eyebrow as she asked the same question at same time with Dana, they shared an odd stare.

"It's better than nothing." Jazz replied, Jack nodding in agreement from his back.

Megatron couldn't concentrate to the task almost at all. All he did was glance behind his back for any sign of dragon who would've kidnapped Iris. He wanted to stay with her, but Optimus needed him. Badly.

"We move by night then, it's settling by any minute now."

~~|||~~

Iris:

I fired up with Raf the campfire as it started to dark down outside, for warmness and light. Julia had gone with Twinstrike for something us to eat same as sticks for the fire. I had took care most of the cubs for the females, who I had gone to be quite good friends. Yeah, they seemed nice, first little scared of our war state now when they had to leave their nest..

Understanding.

"We're back." Julia's voice could be heard, same as huge steps also. A deer landed next to me, which I got myself startled about. "This was the only one we could find."

"No worry, I'm not hungry." I sighed in defense, as Twinstrike kneeled down and got to tore the flesh of it. Raf helped by putting on sticks with Julia. I just watched aside, same as I looked at the fire.

Did you leave by choice.. Megs?

I fixed my position to lean the wall behind me, raising one leg to stay near my chest. I couldn't stop thinking was they even alive, now was the time they probably was there fighting. Or at least releasing humans, I couldn't tell of what Ironhide told me that was it all real?

I was suspicious..

I looked down at my lap and the arm which was patched up, now seeming to stare at it.

Big and huge, you say?

For what I did there, was that we humans stayed almost like in different places. We didn't dig specific point, everyone just there where we wanted. There was not rules also to what dig, and what not. They simply gave us the shovels and work clothes, then we were ready to work.

Chance the damn war state..?

I raised my gaze up, trying so hard to think of what there would be.

"Don't think too hard, Iris." One female friend of mine, called Opal said with chuckle as she fed herself. "You worry about nothing."

I made sad smile and nodded, then looked down.

Worry about nothing, yeah..

...

...

Nothing?

...

...

Nothing.

The rock which I had in my thoughts grabbed from ground soon was falled to the ground as I like lighting was up on my feet. Everyone seemed to notice this, except Ironhide who was making a patrol round.

"Iris?" Julia questioned, when I shot my head towards outside, then towards Galvatron's direction. "What's wrong?"

He lied.

With angry growl I jogged to the opening where Galvatron was being held on, pushing the rock on it aside when I wanted in. I managed to move it smally as I crawled my way in from the small hole, now running at full speed. Ignoring others yells after me.

He lied.

I kept repeating that as it caused me to run even faster.

There was nothing to dig. The ground was too hard and solid rock for there to be anything, same as the workers had no idea where, and what to dig. Like I didn't have either. Plus, where would they otherwise need Dark energon if they would have something to chance the war course. He had made up a big lie, where Optimus and others had fallen into.

They didn't ask from me!

I soon reached end of the long hall, pushing another huge rock aside smally for enough for me to fit from the small hole. Now, I was in an almost dark room, although I could make clearly where Galvatron was. His head looked up in surprise, until grin formed to his face.

"You lied!" I yelled out loud, only reason I was there to find out what truly was going on.

"So, the princess finally got it, ay? Perhaps a little late." He gave chuckles at this as he stood slowly up, the chains seemed to difficult his movement. I only narrowed my eyes.

"Tell me. What's the real plan?" I demanded, walking slowly forward. I stopped eight meters away from him, watching carefully his every move.

"You really want to know?" Galvatron questioned even with wider grin, I made simple nod. "Well then-" Suddenly, his chains were pulled out from the roof and wall behind him, his strong body raising up on his four legs as he looked down at me. I looked at him with wide eyes, taking already steps back. "It is far beyond my reach of how your power gives all of us strenght, I must thank you for that."

Damn Dark energon..

"Don't. Come closer." I warned my finger up, until my back hit a wall behind me. My eyes widened even more as I saw the hole I just came right beside me.

"You wanted to know, didn't you?" Galvatron grinned, bringing his nuzzle even closer as it could be. "Our father's plan, is to re-awaken ancient war dragons from 103 years back, when Primus and Unicron himself once fighted."

"Impossible. No Dark energon amount could make such progress to work." I groaned almost immediately, the 'our' father thing still bothered me and much.

"That's where you step up, Iris. Your blood is now enough strong to transport the Dark energon in your veins, plus the one we've been collecting for three years."

My eyes narrowed big time.

"So you knew I would survive?" I asked in disbelief, he gave evil chuckle at this.

"My father rarely misses where he aims his dark energon."

The shard in my hand!

That was the time I used to bend down from him and run towards the opening. When almost being grabbed by him I flew inside the spacing between us, making run for it now.

"As concidered brother of yours-" I glanced over my shoulder to see him crash the rock wide open, his purple eyes now shined through the dark. "I must take you back to father."

"Tch." I turned forward once again and turned a corner.

This was a hella of a bad idea!

I saw soon the rock I was intending to go, now determined to run through the hole.

Be Ironhide ready.

But then, I only felt sharp teeth surround me by waist, I was being also lifted up from the ground. Galvatron pushed the rock out of his way, same as he grabbed me by his claws for a second and.. blasted towards Ironhide and Twinstrike.

"NO!" I roared, seeing how they never expected it as they growled in pain, second after that widening their eyes. "HIDE!" Then I was being grabbed again by Galvatron who flew out of the nest, I panicked.

Was I again got caught?

"IRIS!" I saw Ironhide couldn't get on his feet as he tried to fly after us. For my surprise and shock, Opal along with Anastasia and Black Widow -the females I came known to- flew after us. Leaving their cubs there.

"You really ask for it." Galvatron groaned, but I saw from his eyes he wouldn't hurt them. After all I was between his plasma and teeth. When he flew higher and higher, we eventually flying in the clouds, I saw none of my girls didn't know where I was at. "You should be grateful."

"For what!? You just shot my friends!"

I then heard Ironhide's roar in the air, which echoed through the notch.

He informed to others..

".. For I didn't get angry for your mate."

That did cause my attention, as I frowned deeply between his sharp teeth. I knew Megatron could be tough-headed and knows how to get others talk, but what would Galvatron do to him.

".. Good." I only received to him, starting to give up hope as he flew higher and faster. I just hanged between his teeth now, knowing my, and everyone else's future was about to end.

Galvatron seems nice when there's just the two of us.. does he really concider me as a sister!?

".. Gal." I called, already giving him nickname. "Take me back."

"I can't do that."

"Why?" I asked when cold air brushed over us, looking up at him.

"I'll stay on the plan.. despite my own will." He groaned as he flew higher, I narrowed my eyes.

"You know this won't end well." I tried, he looked down at me once. "Taking me to.. our father. It's not right. It's not life!"

"I've always used to live like that."

I sighed in defense, now putting on a fight.

"Please, Gal. I never knew I had a brother! Can you just.. show me how much you care?" I questioned, he seemed to frown little.

".. I don't-"

My body suddenly felt like floading. No, falling. My eyes catched up to see Megs on Galvatron's throat, until he took speed of him and flew after me.

WHAT'S HE DOING IN HERE!?

He catched me between his teeth also, as I grabbed hold of his nuzzle.

"Megs!?" I yelled, only to feel his speed away, seeing Galvatron came after us with roar.

"I knew you wouldn't be safe." Was Megatron's answer as he looked back, tightening his jaws around me. "I'm not loosing you this time."

Megs..

I made determined nod as I looked back at Galvatron. Seeing how he came at full speed, but gasped when Megatron now made fall.

Would you two try first at negotiating!?

"Gal, just calm down!" I called when he came too close and Megatron almost clawed his side, which he flew little back. Megatron looked like I went nuts, I only shrugged. "He's concidered as brother! Don't ask!"

"Primus..." Megatron rolled his eyes, but soon fell into reality when Galvatron almost snatched me. Megatron pulled me in shadows as he pushed Galvatron away, now flying towards hills.

"Give her!" Galvatron growled, as I made eye contact with him.

"Never." Megatron received to him as he safely put me on his back. "Hold on-" He warned as he turned around, now blasting towards Galvatron. I widened my eyes as I grabbed his ears, turning his head.

I popped on his as he continued forward, looking into his eyes upside down.

"No. Blasting." I warned, he growled of my attitude clearly. "Let me talk to him."

"Not a chance." He growled as he flew on a long solid rock wall, until we came ontop of it.

"Please."

He clearly couldn't help himself of my pleading eyes, which he gave huge sigh in defense. Seconds later, he flew down on the hill, taking few steps forward as he slowed his speed entirely, we both turning to face landing Galvatron.

They both seriosly were at same height.

"Gal.. concider my offer-" I jumped down, only to get Megatron's head to push me into him, showing me to take no more steps. I gladly stopped, he tried to be protective, as usual! "Please."

"Give her." Galvatron only growled, Megatron's eyes narrowed big time.

"He won't chance. He's too loyal." Megatron growled to me, I rubbed his nuzzle in reassure as he let me take only one step forward.

"Let me try." I whispered to his ear, only to receive head shake from him. ".. What would Unicron do to me then, Galvatron? Last time I was with you two, I was almost killed." I asked, exploring Megatron's scales as I met coldly his eyes.

"My memories hadn't came back at that time. I also have no memory of what I did.. forgive me." Galvatron apologized, looking down in ashame.

".. You can fix that." I reassured with smile as he looked at me. "I'm no challenge to Unicron as everyone wants.. but I believe you are.. brother."

His eyes lighted up for that, altough he seemed to think his options carefully. For my surprise, Megatron stood straight now, exploring Galvatron.

"You might be what we need to win this war." Megatron replied, Galvatron possibly knew all the ways in and out, also the guards and he knew Unicron's weaknesses and plans.

A perfect asset.

".. I'm still connected to him." Galvatron finally stated, small smile creeped on my face as I proceeded forward running. Megatron close behind. "I need your blood, sadly.. to avoid over-control by him. The last thing I now want is for you to be hurt." He sighed sadly, I shaked my head and tore my patch up, Megatron didn't like the idea though, as he growled at my arm smally.

"Just take." I reassured, grabbing shard rock from ground as I slide my wound point open, only hissing in pain. Not wanting to show them it hurt and damn much. I handed my arm towards him, which he licked few times.

He then swallowed my blood, tasting the flavor. He only twitched his mouth and brushed his head, I laughed at that.

"Not so bad than I thought."

Mine and Megatron's eyes widened to hear his voice trembling. 

"What?" He questioned, I shaked my head in disbelief and handed my arm to him for more. "Iris?"

"Take more. Then listen your voice." I ordered, for my surprise Megatron seemed fine by the situation and explored both of us from aside.

Galvatron hesitantly licked plenty than last time, now shaking his head yet again. Maybe even more furiosly. After that he stood up and shaked his body, maybe trying to get my blood already fload in his body.

"Is there any change?" Galvatron questioned, turning to us. Both Megatron's and mine jaw dropped to see his eyes were blue. I nodded my head madly, as I gave fair chuckle.

"It seems both of us are connected to him by Dark energon then." I replied with smile, rubbing his cheek.

"Let's go and tell Optimus some great news."
