A Light in the Darkness

Arcee stood next to Cliffjumpers memorial, watching the sunset. So beautiful, she thought. Then her thoughts turned grim. Like our home before Megatron started this war. Everyone back at base thought that she and Cliffjumper were just friends. But they were more. Arcee remembered when she and Cliffjumper admitted their feelings for each other, and Cliffjumper had said that they should wait after the war to develop their relationship. After Cliffjumpers death, she had only been thinking about that day.

She heard footsteps behind her. She turned, and saw none other than Optimus. "Arcee, what are you doing out here?" he asked. "Nothing," she replied, "just thinking." "Cliffjumpers death was not in vain. He would want you to stay strong," Optimus said.

She sat down on the edge of the hill, and sighed, hearing Optimus leave. She clenched her hand into a fist, and the tears rolled down her face. Why did you leave us Cliff? Why did you leave me? She thought the last part with a choked sob. Had he not been killed, their friendship could have thrived. And after this horrible war, we could have enjoyed the rest of our days, peacefully on Cybertron. Arcee stood up. She was going to kill that Decepticon, the one who killed Cliffjumper. It was almost night. She had been crying for nearly two hours. She thought one last thing before driving of in the sunset. Why did you leave me Cliff? You were my light in my darkness.

Hi, this is my first story so, I know it is not that great. Also I put "Last Goodbye" by Billy Boyd because it is a song about saying goodbye to those who won't come back.
