(Time Pass: Optimus' PoV)
"Optimus," said Ratchet, calling me over. I walked over and looked at Ratchet eagerly. "I've found them," he said simply. I felt my spark lift up into the sky. There is hope! She can still be alive! There is hope!
I called everyone into the main silo. They all lined up in front of me.
"Ok," I said in a commanding tone, "We have found the Nemesis. We must find Bobby no matter what," I in almost a whisper I said, "I must find her." I saw them glance at each other with doubt.
"Ratchet, the groundbridge," I said to him. He pulled the lever and the groundbridge appeared before us. "Everyone, transform and roll out," I yelled, transforming into a semi. The others transformed and we drove through the groundbridge.
We appeared on the landing of the ship, and transforming back into ourselves we looked around. There appeared to be no one here, though I bet Megatron knew we were.
"Everyone split up," I said as we walked into the front door of the Nemesis. They nodded. Arcee went with Bulkhead. They went to the right. Bumblebee went to the left and I, the middle. I got my blasters out and tip-toed forward.
All of a sudden I heard footsteps in the adjoining hallway. I pushed myself against the wall. The footsteps came closer and closer.
Finally I saw three troopers. They were talking about.... Bobby! I have to get information! I ran out from my hiding place and stabbed two of them. They fell to the floor with a clank. I looked at the third, "Tell me where Bobby is," I said fiercely. He pulled out his blaster, but I shot him first. The trooper fell to the ground along with his friends. I walked over to it and knelt down.
"Where is Bobby," I asked in a dangerously low voice.
"She- she's in the laboratory," said the trooper. I stood up and walked passed the energon soaked troopers. They were groaning and one was weeping. I didn't care though. I was just here to get my Bobby back.
I walked for a while, looking for the lab, but instead I found the bridge. Looking in one of the windows, I saw Megatron at the front of the room. He turned and I ducked. It was too dangerous here. I had to keep moving.
I took another glance through the window. Megatron was still there. Then I kept walking.
(Mini Time Pass)
After a while I passed a door with wide windows in it. I looked in. Knockout! I thought as I saw the red Bot walking over to a side of the room. Silently, I opened the door and stepped in.
"Knockout," I said commandingly," where is Bobby?" Knockout turned to look at me, his face filled with horror. He glances over in the corner, though it was hardly noticeable. I turned my head in the direction Knockout had glanced. To my horror I saw Bobby, crumpled in a head in a cage. She had hardly any fur left on her and the cag was filled with human waste.
"You're torturing her," I yelled at Knockout. He quivered, almost like Starscream. I advanced toward him, and he coward even more.
"Please don't kill me," he whimpered. Maybe I should not. Megatron would surely know if one of his inner circle was dead.
"Fine," I said. I walked toward him and grabbed his arm. I pulled him over to one of the medical berths. I forced him on it and binds appeared out of the berth. They instantly wrapped themselves around the struggling mech.
"HELP," he yelled," OPTIMUS PRIME IS HERE!!!!" Oh no! I put a hand over Knockout's mouth.
"Shut up," I yelled at him. I he grunted and groaned. Oh scrap... I had to shut Knockout some way. I have to knock him out.
I punched Knockout in the face and his helm lolled on his shoulder. Then I walked over to Bobby's cage. I opened it and got her out. She looked so frail. Like I had saw before, she didn't have much hair left and her face looked raw with tears. Some of her hair had fallen out and she looked so thin. At least she was breathing. I have to find the others, I thought as I held Bobby close to my spark.
I ran out of the lab and down the hall. By now there were troops heading my way, Megatron along with them.
"PRIME!" His face was filled with hatred. I turned around and ran in the opposite direction. Then I went around a bend and almost collided with Bumblebee.
"Bumblebee, where are the others," I said, showing his Bobby's tortured figure.
"I don't know, but last time we met up it was by the energon stores," he buzzed.
"I understand," I said as I put a finger to my audio receptor.
"Bulkhead, Arcee. Meet us on the landing of the ship," I said into my comm link.
"Roger," I heard Bulkhead say.
"Come on. Megatron's coming," I said, gesturing for Bumblebee to follow me as I started running again. I held Bobby tight to my chest. I would not lose her to Megatron again, even with him rampaging after me.
"Hurry Bumblebee," I said to him. We were almost there. One more hallway. I heard shots coming from behind us. They whizzed passed our helms as we ran. Come on! We turned around another bend and saw the entrance. Yes!
We ran and when we got to the entrance it opened and we ran onto the landing. Both of us stopped running and looked around. Farther down on the landing was Bulkhead and Arcee. They waved us over. I looked back at the door to see if Megatron was coming. He didn't seem to be following so I turned back at ran towards the two. I was about to call for groundbridge when Bobby woke up. She looked up at me and her eyes widened.
"Optimus," she exclaimed in surprise as she struggled to get up in my palm, eventually failing.
"No, Bobby, do not get up. You are too hurt for that," I said to her with a soft smile. She smiled up at me, but suddenly it changed to an expression of horror. Her eyes were wide and she was looking passed me, at the door. Megatron, I thought as I swivelled around to greet my foe.
"Optimus, you can't just take Knockout's science experiment from him. Oh and my future sparkmate," he said mischievously, an evil grin on his already evil face. Wait, sparkmate!? I looked down at Bobby. She looked completely bewildered. Then I looked back at Megatron who was still grinning insanely. Suddenly, I heard a voice from right below me.
"I would never be your sparkmate Megatron! Even when you have tortured me for all the time I've been here! I have been harassed, taunted, electrocuted, abused, lonely and most of all not even taken pity on," Bobby boomed in her wolfish tone. Megatron seemed surprised by this but quickly recovered.
"Well, well, well. Optimus, it seems you have found your sparkmate," he said, pulling out his sword. I readied my sword and held Bobby close to my chest.
"I found my sparkmate long before now Megatron, thanks to you," I yelled at him.
