Anne's POV

"The Autobots and Decepticons must come together in order for Cyberton to survive."

I gasped, trying to sit up, but a suddenly pain shot through me and I gasped again, flopping down and crying out.

"Calm down, Anne. I've got you." Ratchet assured me, his rough voice smooth and gentle.

I pryed my eyes open and looked up into his orange and white face. A worried look filled his optics as he looked down at me.

"How do you feel?"

I turned my head and saw Nurse Darby standing there with Agent Fowler. Both of them watched me cautiously, waiting for an answer.

"Kate. Where is Kate?" I asked.

They exchanged looks, "She's with Megatron."

I sighed, leaning my head back and closing my eyes.

"Look, Anne, I'm sorry, but your friend Ellah-"

"She's dead. I know. I just saw her." I told him.

"You what?" Ratchet asked.

"In a dream, vision, coma, thing." I replied, opening my eyes.

"What of?"

"The Primes. Primus. Ellah. We have to get Kate." I told him.

"I'm sorry, Anne, Kate is the one who did this to you." Agent Fowler told me.

I sent him a glare, "I was there when I got stabbed."

"Then you should know that Kate is no longer on our side." Fowler said.

"We have to unite the Autobots and Decepticons." I told him, looking over at Ratchet.

"That will be difficult." He frowned. "Impossible. How do they expect us to do that?"

"I don't know. We need to find Kate." I told him.

Nurse Darby put her hand on my shoulder, "Why don't you let them worry about that? You need to get some rest."

"How bad is it?" I asked her.

She frowned, "We can worry about that later, too, okay?"

"No, you tell me now. I'm not about to fall alseep not knowing if I'm about to die or not." I told her.

She smiled, "You aren't going to die."

"So? It must be bad if you aren't telling me." I reasoned.

"Anne, you are paralyzed from the waist down." Ratchet told me.

I stared at him.

"Way to break it to her, Ratchet." Nurse Darby snapped.

"No, no. That's what I asked for, thank you." I told him.

They all stared at me for a moment and I shifted uncomfortably.

"Where is Rose?" I asked.

"She wasn't hurt. Physically. Optimus and her are on the roof. They are not yet aware that you have awoken." Ratchet told me.

I leaned back and closed my eyes.

"Good. Try to get some rest." Nurse Darby told me.

I exhaled slowly before falling asleep.

Optimus's POV

I sat quietly, watching the Nevada horizon.
