"Here he comes!" Sam shouted as Optimus put him down.
"Hide, Sam!" He shouted, turning to fight Megatron.
"Weak! Puny! Waste of- metal! Junkyard- crap!" He spat.
"Decepticons!" Megatron called for backup. I turned, seeing Starscream chase Sam.
"Come here, boy." He hissed, and I fired a few shots at him, making him stop.
"There is another source of Energon hidden on this planet. The boy could lead us to it." I heard Megatron state as I punched Starscream. I only stopped when he flew off and I heard Sam's shout. "Optimus!" I turned and Megatron hovered over him
"Is the future of our race not worth a single human life?" He asked.
"Up! Get up! Dad!" I shouted running over.

"No! You'll never stop at one! I'll take you ALL on!" He got up and got out his sword cutting straight through Starscream's arm.
"My arm!" He cried out in pain. Then Optimus equipped his hooks, turning to Grindir and ripping his face in half. "Piece of tin," he spat.
"Sam! Where are you?" He asked, and I saw Megatron sneaking up on him.
"Dad behind you!" I shouted, shooting at Megatron, who hissed in response and he drove his sword straight through Optimus. "No!" Optimus groaned.
"You're so weak!" Megatron spat.
"Autobots, attack!" I ordered firing cannons at Megatron and charging at him. "You will pay for that, you bastard!" I cried, shooting a hand off, making him retreat. Then the pain kicked in, I could hardly breathe, the link, the link was too strong with my dad. "Bumblebee, get them out of here!" Ratchet shouted as we shot the rest. Ironhide grabbed me and pulled me away, pressing his hand against my chest and pushing. "No! No! Dad!" I fought back, but he was stronger than me in this form, his size giving him the advantage as I struggled against him. "He's gone, kid." Ironhide stopped pushing, meeting my eyes and I knew he was right, forcing myself to calm down and breathe again, transforming to follow Bee to god knows where, as the others took Optimus' body back to base.

"It's all my fault, I cried later that night, as I sat with my head on Bumblebee's shoulder as he rocked me. "No way, you couldn't have saved him if you tried. We were outnumbered." Bee assured. I turned and looked him in the eyes, "you know the power I have, I could have at least tried to bring him back!" I cried more.
"He wouldn't want you to, Lexie that could drain you completely of your power for days."
"Don't you get it? First I had to watch my best friend fall of a cliff, then I sent Sky to his death, and now my own dad! Loving me is just a death wish, I'm just a death wish." I snapped.

"Oh come on. That's not true." Skids spoke up, hopping over the wall with Mudflap.
"How would you two know?" I spat.
"You're a Prime. Primes are bad-ass." Mudflap said, making me laugh. I turned to Bee, wiping my tears, then back to the twins. "Guys, what do I do now?" I asked.
"Lexie Prime. You lead, you are the last living Prime. It is up to you to lead us." Bee said, and I nodded.
"Then I shall, in my father's honour, and in honour of the Primes watching over us from the stars." I replied, standing up. I had to do this.

Then, Leo ran over to Sam. "Hey, bro, you need to listen to this, man. You gotta check this out." He shouted, holding up his phone. He showed us the pictures, even my human form was on there. "They have a picture of me, man. We're dead, bro. FBI, CIA, we are wanted fugitives now! I just need you to focus for one minute, man." Leo panicked.
"Just stop." Sam shouted at him, and I shrank down to my human form.
"This thing has blown up to a whole other level, all right? You-" Leo continued.
"You know what? Give me this thing. They can track us. Do you see this?" I grabbed his phone and threw it to the floor, where Sam stamped on it, crushing it completely.
"What? They can track us? Like, satellite track us? Okay, I'm not even with you guys! Technically, I'm like a hostage. This is kidnapping! Enough is..." Leo freaked out.

"Yo, Le-yo!" Mudflap called.
"This thing's gonna give me a heart attack, I swear." Leo muttered.
"That's 'cause yous a wuss." Mudflap mocked.
"You guys forced me into that car, right, so-"
"Ooh, I think he's scared."
"Hey, Mudflap, what are we gonna do with this shrimp taco?" Skids asked his brother.
"Let's pop a cap in his ass, throw him in the trunk and then nobody gonna know nothing, know what I mean?" Mudflap replied.
"Not in my trunk." Skids shook his head.
"Yo, bumper cars?" Leo stopped them.
"Bumper cars?" Skids repeated.
"Cut it out. I'm hearing you. Okay? I'm right here and I can hear you! No one's popping any caps in any asses, okay? I've had a hell! Of a day!" Leo shouted.
"Guys just stop for now, okay?" I ordered, they nodded and turned to Leo again.
"Why don't you get a haircut with your bitch ass?" Skids mocked.
"Go whine to your boyfriend!" Mudflap added and I laughed, following Leo over to Sam and Mikaela.
