Optimus P.O.V

I stood my ground against Megatron as I heard Shadow Star yell in pain. I looked in her direction briefly just to see her hold her helm. I soon relized a second is to long in battle, as Megatron swung at me giving me little time to react.

Arcee P.O.V

I saw Shadow holding her helm and screaming in pain then I saw her go down in shutdown. I knew this was no ordinary shutdown but something else.

Arcee: "Ratchet can you tell what happening to Shadow from the monitors?"

Ratchet: "Yes I can but it wont be pretty when she wakes up in 3-2-1."

I was confused, but then I saw it with my own optics. Shadow Star was rising from where she had fallen. I relized she was emanating great power.

Shadow: "DECEPTICONS I'LL KILL YOU ALL!!!"

Shadow began racing to every Decepticon in sight, slicing, shooting, and using her combat skills. She left the decepticons little time to react. She then charged towards Megatron at a speed a bit faster than Optimus or any fast vehicle mode any of us had.

Shadow: "MEGATROOOOOOONN!!"

Optimus P.O.V

Shadow Star was coming at a fast pace. She didnt even give Megatron a warning. She stroke Megatron in the abdomen with a super charged kick seending him 100 ft away.

Megatron: "Decepticons fall back!"

Megatron had retreated leaving us with so many wounded as usual. Then I noticed Shadow's rage die down as she lost consciousness an fell to the ground.

Optimus: "Shadow!"

Shadow: "Ngh."

Shadow barley managed to say a word, as I held her close to my chess plate.

Optimus: "Ratchet open the groundbridge and prepare sick bay."

Ratchet: "Right away."

Ratchet P.O.V

The rest of the autobots came through the groundbridge as I saw the problem. I saw that everyone was well except for two of ours. It was Jazz and Shadow.

Ratchet: "What happened?"

Arcee: "The cons injured Jazz."

Optimus: "She saved us all and is now unconscious."

Ratchet: "Bring them here now."

Optimus P.O.V

Razor-blade and I placed Jazz and Shadow Star on the medical beds as Ratchet began his work.

Razor: "Will they be alright doctor? I mean they will make it right?"

Bumblebee: "Yeah Rach will they?"

Ratchet: "Its too soon to tell."

Bumblebee P.O.V

We all started at our two motionless comrades. We were doing nothing but waiting for Ratchet to come and brief us of their health.

~ 2 hours later~

Ratchet finally came and gave us the news.

Bumblebee: "Ratchet how are they?"

Arcee: "Are they going to make it?"

Cliffjumper: How's Jazz?"

Bulkhead: "We're dying to know

Night Bird:"Tell us please?"

War Path: "Please tell us of their well being."

Optimus: " How's Shadow Star?"

Razor: "Are our comrades Alright?"

Bandit: "We're dying of the worry."

Everyone asked Ratchet nearly the same question, but we worried over our helm to hear of our comrades than ever before.

Ratchet: "They are stong. I believe they will be alright. I hope. I've done everything I can."

Ratchet gave us news but not the one we wanted to hear. Everyone's spark sank into their chambers. I knew mine did. I took a deep breath and asked Ratchet a question in a whisper

Bumblebee: "How long?"

Ratchet: "Give it a few hours. I know it may be harsh we need to get back on tracking decepticon activity.

Optimus: "We must stay stong for our comrades."

Bandit: "Agreed."

Optimus: "Alright everyone back to work. Bandit continue stocking the energon cubes. Razor keep an eye on decepticon activity. Bumblebee, Arcee and Cliffjumper go on patrol. Scout the areas east, west, and south of the base. Ratchet keep an eye on the patients. Bulkhead, Night Bird, and War Path, the three of you will join me in scouting for energon.

Night Bird P.O.V

Ieveryone saw that Optimus wasnt himself after that battle. No one blamed him we all weren't ourselves. We didn't say anything. Everyone simply nodded and did as they were told.

On board the Nemisis

Megatron: "Starscream who was the autobot that took down half of the troops today. "

Starscream: "Not a clue Lord Megatron. We dont have any leads on her. Its like she dosent exist."

Megatron: "Interesting."
