Ch. 46// The Last Stand
-Are all ends of life so sad?-
~~|||~~
Amy:
"Drop me there!"
Amy's trusted friend now flew through the space, intending to reach the Decepicon warship without further damage being made. Of course it was an experience for Amy, she was actually in space, riding on a Beast king called Predaking, and trying to reach up to save her friends.
Talk about an entrance.
When Predaking was close enough the Warship's flight deck Amy jumped down from it. Her pedes barely touched the metal as she almost flowed in there. But the Beast flew above her little, waiting his side of the deal. Amy knew better than herself where the space bridge was.
"Fly on that space thingie--!" Amy pointed up a huge circle flying in space, knowing it was the Space-entrance which Megatron used to get on Cybetron. "I will go in, and transport you out."
The beast shrieked in response, flying at her pointed direction really fastly. Amy jumped down from one hole and closed it up, smelling already the air around there as she hurried her way through the halls. After a while she reached up to one monitor-control, hearing battle-sounds all over the ship as she opened the files up. Picking up the space-bridge's control, and opening it up with single button.
Now; our deal's done.
"Amy to Optimus, do you read me?" The femme made run for it then through the halls, checking almost every hallway before continuing her way. In some point she even had to blast down few approaching Vehicons, to make her way through.
:Amy... are you on the ship?:
He lives.
"Of course, you moron!" Amy yelled, but as new Vehicons came she jumped her way through and continued her running. "What was the big deal about leaving me!?"
:There is not much time, you need to leave as fast as you can.: Amy stopped on her tracks, hearing shooting happen near her. :For Lockdown, he is searching you.:
And just like karma does it, the Con who Amy didn't want to meet at all came through one speciment door. Glaring at her with energon dripping of his body.
WHY'S HE HERE!?
"A little late-!"
"YOU!" The mech launched at Amy, who made run for it in other direction. There was no doubt that he had came there somehow to search Predaking, and blasted his way through. But as his knowledge came aware that the Beast weren't present... for murderers they must kill for their own desire.
No one gets me, dammit!
Amy almost slipped as she tried to turn a tight corner, but had herself being pushed up to one wall. The femme groaned as fist almost hit her helm but she was faster, kicking Lockdown away from her. But the mech blasted her side, then cut her cheek little open and almost slide her helm off if Amy wouldn't jump away from him. She held her side now, spitting some energon off as she glared up at him.
"Is there a chance you'll let me live?" Amy grinned little, stepping back after notifing what she was so close of. Lockdown fell for it, coming closer.
"I've waited far too long, now die!" The assassin came right at her with his blade out, but Amy only stepped aside. The mech flew out of the ship from one exit-door which Megatron has all over his Warship. Amy let out a scoff with evil grin, then making run for it again.
Jeez. For professional he was sloppy.
It didn't took long however, as she run into Praxina and Smokescreen. All of them almot shooting each other down.
"Mom!?" Praxina asked, but what Smokescreen was carrying got Amy's attention. It was; the Star Saber. "What are you doing in here!?"
"I'd like to know too." Smokescreen raised his eyebrow, but Amy shook her helm.
"No time, where's Optimus and others?"
They both exhanged looks.
~ Time skip ~
"Special delivery!" Smokescreen informed, running past Arcee and Bumblebee with Praxina and Amy who took down some of their targets. "This way, right?"
"Keep going!" Praxina instructed, after telling Amy that Megatron only wanted her daughter to be there for him, the femme had guilt brush over her. Maybe it was the world distructor's child, but they have spark too, right? So, Amy was now aware of Megatron's care for others.
He wants to maybe rule... but also save their race.
Smokescreen went right at the wall and Starscream, until he activated his shifter on. Amy and Praxina and grib of him, all three of them going through the wall only to arrive into a large area. They run up to the edge, widening their optics up to see Megatron and Optimus battling near somekind of energon-lake. But also, the fighting Shockwave and Ratchet near the controls was a brief shock to see.
Not long after that, Arcee and Bumblebee forced their way in too.
"Optimus, catch--!"
"SMOKESCREEN!" Ratchet yelled, but before Smokescreen could even throw the Star Saber he got hit by Shockwave's blaster and send away. Amy stared there in shock as Praxina went up to him, before she saw Vehicon ran past her towards the sword. Amy was quickly after him, same as she saw Starscream came running with Arcee and Bumblebee on her heels.
The femme saw Starscream went past her, but he had the Vehicon throwed on him now. Amy jumped over all of them, running for her life to see Shockwave reaching the sword up also from opposite direction. She ran, and ran, ignoring the sensation of fear brushing over her if she couldn't reach the weapon first. She, had to. Once near the Star saber Amy dodged Shockwave's blast hit, grabbing hold of the sword as she throwed it up. But her plan worked as it distracted the scientist, her fist meeting up with his eye then. She took speed of him, grabbing the sword once more and glanced down at Optimus.
I need to get to him.
Amy slided down of the metal platform, beginning to climb her way down of it.
:Optimus, you must use the Star saber to destroy the Omega Lock.: Ratchet commed in, the Prime glanced up in confusion. Until he saw Amy climb down, before she jumped and landed heavily on her pedes, but restrained quickly. By time when his distraction happened, Megatron punched Optimus' faceplate and sent him away.
"STOP!"
Both of the mechs stopped by it, glancing towards Amy's direction. The femme smashed the Star saber on the metal floor under her pedes, looking at them with pleading optics. She wanted their attention; and that was what she got. For once upon their lives it was time to listen. For the Leaders to heed someone else's words.
Here we go...
It's the only way.
"What exactly is this plan of yours? Being for eons, and still continues! War? I haven't seen neither of you still dead. Hatred? Perhaps maybe greed. Brothers? Exact opinion of fighting siblings!" The femme snarled, which even Optimus stood up on his pedes to have a better look. "Megatron, if you want to cyberform Earth, go ahead. But remember this; it was mine, and your child's birth place." Hesitance could be seen in the Warlord's optics. "Restore Cybetron, you idiot! There's a chance now, especially since neither of you still ain't dead. And if one does kill the other, I won't answer from the consequences."
The Prime and the Warlord saw Amy's optics tear up.
"Please, sire!" Praxina jumped down beside Amy, and from somewhere had Orion showed up there too. Each of the sparklings staring right at their original creators. "Earth has grown to be a beautiful planet... would you destroy the beauty of it?"
"Dad... there's another path." Orion begun too, placing a servo on his chest and above his spark. "I know you don't want this, either of you." As Optimus and Megatron exhanged looks, there still remained that deadly glare. "If you Megatron don't see it as if it is, ask from Mother anything about it."
Amy held her hip, watching as the fighting had stopped for second. The ship had fell into silence.
"Like I have taught every Autobot. To see it's nature, even though reality might be scary, frustrating, and miserable sometimes." Amy replied, Megatron raising his denta little in annoy.
"You compare me into him?" Megatron preferred Optimus beside him, who luckily kept his pride and didn't take it as offensive side.
"No." Amy snapped. "I compare you as a Cybetronian being, finding a rightful path, who has made bad decisions. But like Orion said; there's another path than destruction and chaos. Your mind wouldn't take much of it now, would it?"
:.. Amy..: Others gasped, in the end, everyone's fighting had stopped.
Oh? I caused that?
"So, it's time for you to deside;--" Amy took steps forward, watching both Leaders of the so-long-lasted war. "Us, or nothing!"
Amy, was serious as ever.
.
.
.
"-- What would I even be without you by my side?" Optimus was first to protest, dropping his blaster on ground as he kept standing there. "You have brought me to see Earth as strong, independent, justiced planet, which does not deserve to be changed." Optimus looked at Megatron, turning to the hesitant Warmonger. "Will this war be over with, and let's go back; home." Optimus forgot the hatred towards him, all of it. By doing this it was all right. Elita- one did scratch his processor... but in the end, Megatron was his brother. Lost brother. There wasn't proof was it him to be exact, or did anyone knew what happened.
Megatron looked right at Praxina.
"Please..." The femme mouthed, seeming to just want to run up to him and squeeze him into a tight hug. It still took some time afterwards before Megatron grasped Optimus' servo firmly.
"Grudge?" Megatron required, Optimus shook his helm with little pained face as his face-mask slide off.
"We must let go of the past in order to move forward." Optimus' wise words said, which Amy smiled more than with a shock. They were almost exactly the words she said to Optimus about Elita- one. "Now, when the truce has been finally granted."
.
"That is sadly fortunate."
Strike.
.
.
.
.. W-hat-?
Amy's optics fell wide, same as her body which now stood on one knee. Her processor almost not handling the fact; that the Star Saber had went through her chest. Flashed her spark. Broke it into pieces. Shattering it apart.
Amy looked glaringly back at Lockdown, until splashing energon out of her tank.
"AMY!"
"MOM!"
So... he survived from it.
Amy fell on her side, touching the metal-object still connected to her vital insides, as she watched Orion and Praxina challenge the enemy with roars and anger. She couldn't do anything, not while her optics fought to remain even awake.
This feels... so familiar.
"Amy--!" Optimus kneeled down behind her, pulling the sword out of her. Amy glanced up to see Megatron launch at the opponent, having Shockwave, Arcee and Bumblebee to help him. But the energon kept coming from now the hole on her chest, same as from her dentas and tank. "RATCHET!"
"H-he-- got me." Amy coughed, but Optimus scooped her little up and kept her helm steady, so no longer energon would come out. "A-am I dying... big rig?"
But Optimus had no time to waste, as he stood up by curling his dentas into a frown. He stepped closer of the energon pole, knowing it was made of energon and restoring material. He kneeled down then, sliding Amy's body into there. He waited, glancing back to see crying Praxina and Orion join him, being sobbing.
"Please, work..." Orion pleaded, but the reflection of the wall above them formed on Amy's body. She only fell deeper. "Mom...!"
"Her sparklings, huh?" Megatron had been throwed into the energon pole too, as it earned Optimus' attention. The Prime launched his fist back, but earned shock filled his body up. He fell down, trying to remove the causer with grunts. "I cannot allow a legacy continue, now can I?" Lockdown had his blades out, as the two sparklings froze little. He had beated up their Sires.
"No-!" Optimus pleaded, finally crushing the shock's causer as he launched forward. He may had challenged Lockdown, but soon found himself outnumbered compared to him. He was indeed an assassin.
"Trying to resist to save your precioust off-springs? That is also fortunate--" Lockdown tried to read the Prime before kicking him away, laughing evilly as Optimus stuttered to stand. "I could easily kill you too!"
.
"In your fucking dreams, punk."
It was time, to switch the sides.
Optimus watched Lockdown's own sword flash through his spark, the mech ending up coughing energon. But the voice they all heard was the reason their optics widened up, same as how Megatron flashed Lockdown's helm off of it's place. Now he, and Amy, panting there in deep exhaustion. What a partner ship for the rightful end... hopefully.
But the femme no longer felt danger, so her pedes gave up.
"Mom-!" Megatron was fast enough to grab her, looking down to see her still with them, just exhaustion feeling through her body. Orion and Praxina relaxed little, same as Optimus who stood there straight.
"... Now he's dead." Amy blinked, chuckling oddly by herself. "I got him this time."
"-- Watch your tone before you become a killer." Wheeljack, Ultra Magnus and Bulkhead formed up there. The Wreckers gave suspicious looks to Megatron, but Amy shot back some glares.
"So... what now?" Arcee asked, Amy already standing on her knees but still cooling her vents down.
I live.
"What Amy ordered." Optimus looked at his team once in proudness, then at the Decepticons, his sparklings, and lastly; Amy.
"We will go back to Cybrtron, and begun restoring it. As a family; as in order we must go on. "
Well, One More Light saved in Cybetronian history.
Best luck for us then--!
