How could this happen?

How did everything go to hell so quickly...again?

Everything's dark around me.
But that's probably because there's something covering my eyes...
There are times in which you can still see some light through whatever's covering your face, but this is different; I literally can't see anything.

But I listen. I listen all kind of sounds. Voices. Steps. Yells. Metal noises.

I woke up here, with no idea of how much time I was unconscious. Not knowing where I was.
Not remembering what happened.

Since then, I suppose I've been here for at least an hour... And now I do remember.

-)././.(-

5 hours earlier...

I can't believe it. My hands are shaking like crazy.

I have it. I really have it.

I slowly pick up the thick Investigation from its place on the ground. A smile appears on my face as I take my hand towards the communicator on my ear.

"Hide!" My voice cracks up a little.

"What? What is it? Are you okay?"

"I found it! It's still here!" I chuckle a bit.

"Seriously, who are you talking to?" Christian rises an eyebrow.

"Hide..." Janice murmurs. "You mean Ironhide? The Weapons Specialist?" She asks.

"The one and only" I say, without even looking at them as my eyes are focused on the Investigation.

I hold my breath as I'm about to read it... And that's when the thoughts start slipping into my mind.
What if I'm wrong?
What if there's no way to bring him back?
What if...?

But I push them away. I have no time for this. Besides.
What if there is?
What if there actually is a way?

I softly grab the edge of the cover when...

"Cael, we gotta go. Now."

I instantly stop, listening to Hide's voice, I take the Investigation and stand up.

"Why? What is it?" I frown.

"They're here. Get out of there"

I turn around with widened eyes. The siblings wide-eyed too, noticing my quick movements, step back.

"What's wrong?" Janice asks.

What do I tell them? To run? To hide? To stay? To follow me?

"They... They found me... They're here..."

"What are you talking about? Who found you?" Christian shakes his head and motions with his hands, telling me to tell them what's going on.

"Decepticons" Janice says for me as her face goes white.

"Caelyn." Hide says harshly.

"I...I-I have to go" I squeeze between them and step outside the room.

"Wait! C-Caelyn..-!!"

I start running towards the entrance of the apartment and in the moment I open the door, my breath goes away.
The biggest déjà-vu I've ever had comes to me.
Me running out of our apartment, with the thought that the Cons are in the city... Coming for us. Coming for me.
But at that time... My brother and dad were still with me...
A cold shiver runs through my spine and makes me tremble in both emotional pain and cold.
