rainshots pov:

than just like that bumblebee disappeared over the rige followed by what seemed like twenty drones and soundwave Megatrons third in command. no no no he cant be gone. I looked at highfire and felt the coolant well up in my optics as I saw him. coolant was streaming down his face and his optics held a look of sadness, sadness that would never fade never  truly be gone. "h-hes gone" he whispered. "we don't know that he could make it out we have to think of the best" I said placing my servor on his shoulder. it was tearing my spark from my chassis but we had to keep going. "we have to keep going for bee" he got a determined look on his face and in his optics. "for bumblebee" he said and got out of the crevisis bee had hidden us in. 

I took the first shaking steps forward and then faster until I was almost sprinting. so was highfire we had to get out of range otherwise bees sacrifice would be for nothing we had to push though we had to get to the launch pad. we finally got out of range and only stopped for a moment to rest the launch pad was in sight and only a few minutes away if we hurried. highfire looked to me. "he's really gone" I walked over hugging him this was the worse than any injury I ever had it felt like it would swallow me hole. "NOOO" highfire said completely defeated. "we have to keep going" I said hoping I could be strong enough for both of us. "highfire watch out" I said as a con appeared behind him and threw myself in front of him. the blast his me in the abdomen and knocked me to the ground. "NO" he shouted before Blasing the con. 

"rainshot" he said dropping to his knees. I saw my abdomen leak energon but i was going to live. "I'll be fine but you'll have to go on without me" I said looking around for a spot to stay hidden. "no I'm not leaving you to you'll die" he said picking me up to my peds. "highfire I'll only slow you down just leave me" I said pulling away. "please" he tried to reason with me. "I'll be fine just go and hurry" I said and spotted a good place to hide this out. he helped me over to it and covered me so no one would find me. "just stay here until I come back" he said before he moved the last peace of ruble. "I'll wait forever for you" I said and gave him a quick kiss before closing my optics and leaning back. he's going to make it I know it. "goodbye my love" he said though the ruble. "I love you to" I responded before I heard his ped steps lead away.

highfires pov:

I looked back at the spot I had hidden away rainshot memorizing it for when I come back if I even come back. I looked down at the allspark case than at the launch pad In front of me I was going to get it there even if it killed me. "for everyone" I whispered to myself before I started running off again I didn't mean any cons on my way. it looked like bumblebee drew most of them away. my spark was tearing itself apart for him. 'i was never going to see him again' I couldn't get it out of my mind so I let it empower me. 'for bumblebee' I said before I started running again. I made it to the entrance of the launch pad. where I meet two cons guarding the control panel. Megatron must have thought it wasn't that important to put many here since you would first have to make it to the heart of there territory.

I looked down at my servos a new power running though me I was going to do this and I was going to no matter the cost. I clenched my fist and charged with the allspark case in my subspace. they looked stunned to see me but instantly shot at me. I ran at them sliding thought the first ones legs using the the moves bee taught me. I shot low and then jumped out of the way they were turning around wildly trying to catch me but they weren't going to. I took out the cons at last and walked up to the control panel. me, bumblebee, rainshot, and Optimus were the only ones who knew where the allspark was going. I typed in the coordinates and placed the allspark in the center of the launch pad. my servor hovered over the launch button ready to send it off into space. 

"this......is ...... for........bumblebee" I said and pushed down the button. a brilliant blue beam emerged from the ground a swirl of blue, green, and purple erupted from it empowered by the allspark within itself.  I stared up at the spectacle but it didn't put me at ease. bumblebee and rainshots should be here to witness it. the beam lasted for a few seconds before dispersing into a blue puff of smoke that quickly evaporated. I took out my cannon and walked out of the launch pad. I took aim at the console and fired. it exploded making sure no one could follow its courdanits. then I kicked my comm on our mission was done and could quit radio silence. "highfire to base we've succeeded" I heard someone come up behind me. I turned around and it was rainshot. "sorry I got squeamish and the cons were about to find me" I didn't care that she had moved I ran up and pulled her into a hug. 

"we've done it we completed our mission" I said. _base to team A get out of there we are sending in a battalion_ I heard ultra Magnus say though the comm and so did rainshot. than Optimus spoke. _is every one with you_ he said and I looked at rainshot I nodded to her I was going to deliver the tearable news. "Optimus we.........lost bee" I heard gasps thought the comm. _no this cant be_ I heard the exasperated voice of cascade. "he sacrificed himself to distract the cons so we could get though" I looked down I couldn't take it. "hey look at me he could have gotten out" I knew the chance was small but it was all we could hold onto. "we must think that he is still out there somewhere" I responded before we slowly started making our way back the way we came. 'maybe just maybe he was still out there somewhere'
