Fate Defier | Transformers Prime

5: Escape

I know the dialogues are not exactly the same, in all the story, things like events and dialogues will change. So if it's different I know. Just to let you know :)

-::/\::-

Hard.

That's the perfect word to describe what just happened.
I promise I was about to cry right in front of Knockout and then with Soundwave, Primus... I'm gonna miss them so much.

I walk towards my secret room and silently slide inside.

"Every Vehicon! Get ready!" That's Starscream.
...
...
...
...
OF COURSE! HE'S GOING TO THE AUTOBOT BASE!
A sudden wave of adrenaline fills me from the bottom to the top.
There's something else I keep in this room. My grenades.
I take four and hang two at each side of my waist.
I'm about to get out of the room when I decide to stop...
I turn around in my heels and look at the box.
I grab two other grenades and get out of the place.

-)././.(-

Oh Primus!
Oh Primus!
Oh Primus!
I can't believe I'm actually escaping!
I run through the hallways, heading to the way out... heading to freedom.

I run next to a special door... I keep going but change my mind and stop.
I press my fingers between my optic ridges.
I slowly go back in my own steps and look at the door hesitantly.

The cell where they're keeping the Autobot.

I want to free him but... but..
What if happens the same thing that occurred the first time I tried to help an Autobot?
No no no no...
It only ended worse for him... and for me...

I start hearing footsteps.. they're gathering in the rooftops..
You don't have a hole life to think Skylight!!! You've already waited your hole life...
I clench my teeth as I remember him.. The Autobot I tried to help..

With one last fist squeeze, I enter to the cell.

As I step inside a shot flies right next to my face.

"What the...?"
I instantly look up and see Wheeljack wrapping his legs around a Vehicon's neck, who's trying to get free and is shooting like crazy.
The Vehicon falls down, unconscious.

"Agh Scrap" Wheeljack growls.

"Thought you'd shoot the panel control?" I say.

"Who are you?" He asks.

"You don't remember me? Well that hurts" I walk towards the panel control.

"Wait... you're the one that was messing with Starscream" he says.

"Skylight. That's me" I smile.

"What do you want, 'Skylight'?" He says, squirming, trying to free himself from the handcuffs.

"I'm gonna help you" I say. "you won't get away like that" I see him squirm.

"Why would you help me?"

"I want to get out of here just like you" I answer.

"I'm a Wrecker, I don't need your help" he growls

"Mhm sure" I say "Come on Wrecker, you don't have to beg for help like that"

"I'm not..."

"It's okay, I'll get you out"

"I said..."

"You just had to say please" I turn to him, smirk and press a button with my fist. The handcuffs fade away and he lands on the floor easily.
He rubs his wrists and looks at me.
"You're welcome" I say.
He walks towards me and stares at my face, then he looks at... my optic, great.
"What are you looking at?" Sounds ruder than I expected.
He rises his hands defensively and gives a step back.
"Whatever, thought you'd like this, Wrecker" I hand him the two extra grenades I grabbed.
