TFP: Alone

Chapter 36: The Attack

Sideswipe's P.O.V.

It was getting late and it was time for us to leave so we didn't run into Legacy's sire. I hugged Legacy goodbye and Sunny nodded her way before we walked out the door. My twin and I looked at each other and we both thought of the same thing. How sexy she was when she was dancing.

The way she move, rocked her hips, poked her chest out, arching her back, even her twirl! My cooling fans kicked on and I had to shake myself out of my thoughts.

::We should-:: I start.

::No.:: Sunstreaker interrupted.

::Why not?:: I ask. ::Don't tell me your still standoffish that she's techno-organic.:: I say.

::It's not that. She's just...:: He trailed off, but I followed the thought. Too good for us.

::I think she likes us too. She wouldn't have danced like that if that were the case. And we're so close. We hang out with her almost every day.:: I say.

::And do you want that to end if she rejected us. You know, in Earth culture, it is inappropriate to have two mechs at one time, much less brothers.:: He says.

::She's on Cybertron now! I think she'd understand.:: I say.

::But, if she doesn't, do you want to risk our relationship?:: He says again.

::No.:: I agree.

Smokescreen's P.O.V.

"Decepticon attack!" Someone shouts. We all get in formation, rushing to our posts. I was on the front lines, commanding my cadets.

"Everyone take cover!" I order, ducking under blaster fire. I peak my head up with my rifle in servo and return fire. My cadets followed my lead.

There was an army of Cons coming our way and we were the only ones who could fight them off. We had anticipated the attack because of the lack in civilan and Enforcer population in Kaon after the plague. Now would be the perfect time to take a half-rebuilt Decepticon capitol that's stocked with supplies to continue the operation. And that would only be the first step in their conquest.

One of my cadets was thrown back by a blaster shot and I knew he must have offlined due to the fact that he wasn't making a noise. I had no time to look with all the Cons coming our way. We were outnumbered five to one.

By the end of the battle, casualties were high and I stomped through the battlefield. I came out okay, considering that I was still mobile. Bee had to be sent to the medic and was in danger of losing his leg.

I hear chuckling and I investigate, my weapon held up. I find a Decepticon, energon pooling under him and a huge, disgusting grin on his face.

"What's so funny Con?" I hiss.

"Ha! You Autobots are so stupid. You think we were stupid enough not to have a back up plan. We knew you couldn't fight on two fronts. Now, we have everything we need to take back our city. Long live Megat-" I shot him before he finished. I turned on my heel racing back to the base. Once I got there I made an annoucement.

"I need all able bodied Autobots to come with me. The barracks may or may not have been taken by the enemy, but I have new intel suggesting this." We all mobilized and rushed back to base.

Not only where civilians placed at the barracks, but all rebuilding equipment and the distribution center were in close proximity.

Sunstreaker's P.O.V.

I wasn't going down without a fight and neither was my twin. We were being attacked by an onslaught of Decepticons. They had raided the barracks and started killing us and enslaving others. Sides and I had taken down a few and were running through some halls in the back that went to the maintence rooms, hoping there was a way out somewhere.

But we were stopped when we ran into a posse of five or six Cons, all heavily armed.

"Well, well, well...." I hear a familar voice. "If it isn't my old buddy Sunshine?" Tracks stepped forward, now brandishing a Decepticon insignia.

"I see you switched sides." I snarl. He smiles and chuckled menacingly.

"I was always on the same side. And speaking of sides, this is your brother of Sideswipe." He hummed. "Where's that old sack of slag that you've been dragging around?" He asks. I lash out at him, but am stopped by the barrel of a gun being pressed to my helm. I bare my denta, stopping in my tracks, cletching my fists and jaw angrily.

"Oh... He's offlined. Plague? Pity... I would have enjoyed handing his spark to you." He sneered. "You know, because of you my boss ,Thunderhoof, gave me a pretty hard beating. Ruined my finish. So, I'll have to ruin yours. But right now, I want to kill your brother. Let's do it in the big room to set an example." He said cheerfully.

A pair of Cons grabs both of us and we kick, jerk, bite. Nothing loosened their grip. They chuckled darkly in our audios and whispered menacing words.

::Sunstreaker?:: Sideswipes voice came across the bond. I sent him reassuring feelings, not feeling very confident myself.

We soon made it to the commons, the biggest room in the barracks. It's where we dined, gambled, fought. It was our home and my twin was about to be slaughtered here.

They kicked the backs of our knees, making us face one another. I looked my brother in the optics and fear flooded our bond.

Tracks stood behind Sides, two other Cons holding him still as he struggled. They needed three for me before some Con put a gun to my helm. Tracks then began his speech.

"You Autobots believe that you can take what is rightfully ours! You won the war, but this is our city! You're just building upon what the mighty Lord Megatron created! So let me set an example, my slaves, for what you'll be rewarded with if you disob-" Tracks's speech was interuppted with an explosion at the main entrance. It knocked several Cons, and Bots, to the ground, killing a few. Then, storming through, I saw Legacy's sire. He was leading Autobots through the broken door and they opened fire on all those brandishing a Decepticon brand.

With all the commotion, I kicked the legs out from under the Cons. I stand and I stomp the head of the bigger one, and punching the other in the throat, his intakes collapsing on him and choking on energon. I turn just in time to see Sideswipe jump and spin, delivering a vicious blow to Tracks's helm, him falling to the ground unmoving.

We both exchange a glance before we rush to the fight, aiding the Enforcers. We used our strength and will to overcome the Cons, working together with them to stop the tyrannts who tried to kill my twin. It was just like I was back in the pits of Iacon, fighting for my life, energon, and home.

Both Sides and I were covered in the blood of others. It'll stain my paint, but I was just happy that Sides and I were together, he sent me feelings of joy, excitement, and love, even if it was restrained. We lived knowing how much we cared for one another, even though we never said it.

We stood together, looking around at all of the destruction. Hundred of civilians, Enforcers, and Decepticons laid dead at our feet. I felt my spark clench in sadness at the sight of our friends offlined bodies. But they were now one with the Allspark.

A/N: Let me know if you guys liked that I added the fight video in the chapter. That was the move that Sides used to take down Tracks.
