Tibaksi &The Traitor

Chapter 15

I watched in horror when Sentinel tore Optimus' arm off. I felt my spark leap to my mouth when the horrid mech lifted his weapon to deliver the killing blow to Optimus.
Optimus looked up at me. With my sharp sight, I could see his expression was tired and pained, but love radiated out of his optics. Not just for me, I realized, but for all of us. For every human on this planet.
Suddenly, just when I thought it was all over, who should show up? Megatron!
The mech shot at Sentinel and I used the distraction to fly down and drag Optimus out of harms' way.
I wanted to hold him tight and never let go, but I didn't want to hurt him more, and the fact that I was trembling didn't help.
Optimus got back on his peds, shaking slightly. I knew his wound was hurting terribly, but he seemed to ignore it.
Megatron sneered at Optimus and the Prime attacked.
He grabbed his axe and threw it at Megatron, the blade lodging in his chest-plate.
Optimus roared and yanked it out, only to bring it down again with dead accuracy into Megatron's helm.
Optimus pulled, and tore Megatron's helm completely off. All with one arm.
Sentinel grabbed my leg weakly,"Please, Tibaksi, have mercy."
I pulled away and gave him a stone-cold glare.
"You ordered your men to rape me and my friends. You deserve what you're getting," I said icily.
"Optimus," Sentinel said, turning to the Prime,"All I wanted...was the survival of our race. You must see why I had to betray you."
"You didn't betray me," Optimus replied, lifting Megatron's gun,"You betrayed yourself."
"No, Optimus!" Sentinel cried.
Optimus fired two shots, one in the chest-plate and another through his helm.
Sentinel breathed his last and went limp.
Optimus' face-plates were downcast. I knew it wasn't his arm that was hurting, but his spark.
I touched his good shoulder-plate and said softly,"That must've been hard...but you did the right thing."
Optimus looked at me and gave me a small smile.
I smiled back, then stepped away.
"Orchid, what are you doing?" he asked.
I made a circle with my servos, using both my phsycic and healing powers to fix Optimus' arm.
Everyone arrived at the scene, and most gaped at me as I used my metal powers to re-fuse all of Optimus' broken cabling together. It felt like I had been lifting tanks for an entire day and night without stopping, but it was worth it to see Optimus whole again.
Blue Moon, Aura, and Kamicazii wrapped their arms around me in a happy hug. I sighed happily, grateful everyone was safe.
My thoughts wandered back to Wheeljack and my mood darkened slightly.
Sam and Carly were happily reunited with one another, and shamelessly kissed in front if everybody.
It was a tender moment...which Bumblebee pretty much ruined by dropping rings in front of the two humans and playing 'Here Comes the Bride'.
"I love this car," Carly giggled.
"You've gotta slow down, alright, buddy?" Sam said, blushing red,"Y-you've gotta slow way down."
"I was just tryin' to help out," Bee replied.
I giggled and crossed my arms.
Megatron was dead (again), Sentinel was dead, the Decepticons had been sucked up along with Cybertron, and Earth was safe once more.
Unseen, Optimus put his servo on my lower back. The touch comforted me, reminding me that no matter what happens, Optimus and my friends will always be there for me, no matter the danger. And I will always be there for them.

            The End....

Author's Note: That's it for another story, people! Thank you so much for staying with me through these last four books of the series.
