EDITING- Her Courage, His Burning Rage (Book 3) (Dark Of The Moon)

Chapter 17

I'm perched against the wall of an alleyway. I stood hidden in the shadows, looking up at the circle of Decepticons, they didn't see me. My heart almost stopped when I saw the Autobots in the middle of the battle, with guns pointed at their helms. Oh my God! In the blink of an eye Q is shot dead by Soundwave, "NOOOOO!!!!" I cried. My jaw dropped and I froze, unable to believe my eyes. My hands moved to the engagement ring on my finger that Optimus had given me.

"They killed Q," Tears running down my cheeks and I wiped the tears away. My head snapped up at the angry shouts of Blue as Soundwave pushed him forward, "I have been waiting a millennium to get rid of you!" Soundwave laughs.

The blue spark felt smooth and heavy in my hand. The ache to protect Blue weighing heavily on my heart. No one hurts my Blue.

All this was done practically on autopilot as my eyes took in the encounter between Blue and Soundwave. Blue was struggling to break of the looming Decepticon, with a busted shoulder, wiggling constantly. Twenty or so Deceptions clawed lethal servos closed around the Autobots. I don't think my heart was beating from that moment on.

All I was focused on was running forward, towards the vicious Soundwave and the struggling Blue. I had just latched onto Soundwave's chubby ankle plating, but he didn't notice. Climbing up the back of his body. I sneered. He was going down. The heat of the thruster next to me was almost unbearable and I winced before throwing myself upwards, climbing the plating with one hand as one was occupied with keeping the sword in my hand. Thankfully, there wasn't many moving plates on Soundwave's legs and I carefully ascended, being careful not to pull any cables or wires that would alert the mech to my presence while eyeing the struggle going on.

Blue was a struggling mess almost looking like a cat that didn't want to be held, twisting in impossible directions and shouting insults as loud as he could while trying to get his gun servo free, which was hard seeing how Soundwave held that servo and another leg firmly while snarling at the efforts of my black and blue friend.

I gasped as Soundwave shot Blue through the shoulder, but judging on my progress so far had only been a handful of seconds. Blue cries out at the intense pain unable to escape the evil clutches of Soundwave and his goons. "Kill me already you cowardice snake!" Blue demanded his body shaking.

"Do it!"

A pain exploded in my chest as I watched Soundwave grab a hold of Blue's helm roughly. And started pulling. "You make this to easy," he growled. I wasn't aware of setting my thighs on either side of a particularly large thigh plating on Soundwave, allowing myself to lean back and free both of my hands to bring the gun up to my shoulder. "You're dea-"

"You piece of shit!" I screamed, interrupting the grey mech before pulling out my sword. Instantly pulsing with rage and protectiveness, I hurdled forward. My blood boiling; my blade glowing a fiery orange and swung my sword with all my might. The recoil almost knocked me from my precarious perch. Soundwave roared in a mixture of surprise, rage, and pain. My sword had impacted solidly under his chin, the only practical target in my position. The surprise attack was enough for Blue to buck his way free of Soundwave's grip and flip through the air out of my range of vision. I gritted my teeth as I brought my sword down, very aware of how his Hellfire red optics had now turned to me. My finger squeezed the hilt again just as the mech moved to grab me, shifting my shot from his chin to his chassis.

I bring my sword down. Stabbing my sword through Soundwave's optics. Bumblebee was the first to move. The Autobots soon leapt into action, turning on the Deceptions who had captured them and took them down. A huge battle erupted so quickly that I didn't realize I was the one who started the intense battle.
