Encrypted Prophecies ( TFP Smokescreen x Female! Reshiram OC!) *Book Two*

Chapter 5: Safe Return

Previously:

"So we have to get these lights to light up at the same time right ? (Smokescreen)

"Yes, but it looks like that if one or both of us mess up we get punished for it." (Blaze)

(Time Skip)

"Ahhh! Son of a glitch!" (Blaze getting blasted after another mistake) "What's your malfunction, Smokescreen?!"

"Sorry!! I'm not as fast as you are...I'm not doing it on purpose!" (Smokescreen)

"Not doing it on purpose my aft!" (Blaze)

As they continue to fight, one of them makes that final mistake and the whole room turns red, causing all the blasters in the rooms to point to one of the Autobots and charge up for a final blow. As they are charging, Blue optics widen on one and the other is frozen in fear at what might happen if they don't escape.

3rd POV:

"Blaze!!!" Smokescreen screams out her name in fear and holds a servo out in front of him towards the Seeker who's optics are widened in distress.

His servos then fly up to his helm, holding the sides of it in sheer terror as he swiftly paces back and forth, struggling to decide on whether to help her somehow or escape out of fear himself and hope for the best that she will make it out alive by some miracle.

"Primus!! What do I do?! Man...if this wasn't a nightmare before, it definitely is now!!!" Smokescreen panicked.

"Smokescreen, please calm down, panicking isn't going to get us anywhere..." Blaze tells him with an expression that says she accepted what will become of her.

"Blaze...I'm sorry...this is all my fault." Smokey tells her with sadness in the tone of his voice and lubricant stinging his optics at thought of losing Blaze due to is own ignorance.

"It's just as much my fault as it is yours, do not think for a second that this your fault alone. We were fighting and we shouldn't have been, I should have not lost my composure, but I did." Blaze told him, not moving knowing that if she did the blaster above her would shoot prematurely.

"Blaze! If it wasn't for the fact that I was....you know... you wouldn't be in this situation! But don't you worry though, I'll get us both out of here! I promise!" Smokescreen declares making his final decision, promising they would escape together and the Dragon Femme smiles at him.

Smokescreen then looks up to find the switch to his door and looks over at the ceiling in Blaze's side for hers. When he finds it he immediately glanced around for something, anything that will allow him to hit both switches to open both doors and stall the blasters long enough for both himself and Blaze to escape.

Not finding anything, Smokey does the one that he can do and transforms his servos into blasters and points them at both the switches.

"Hold on Blaze, I'm getting us out of here." He then says when he locks on to the switches.

"I would make it fast if I were you...don't think I have too much longer ." Blaze said in a eerily calm manner.

"How are you so calm?! Your life is in danger!" The rookie Elite Guardsman exclaims in shock.

"Don't worry about that. Just do what you're planning on doing! So if you are to do it, do it now!" Blaze said getting irritated returning the White and Blue Mech's attention to what he was going to do and he stares at her a moment and he stiffens up at being yelled at again by her.

"Smokescreen, look, I don't mean to seem harsh, but you need to understand that I'm just as stressed with everything that had been happening as you are right now. All I want is to make sure you will survive, I want what's best for you just like the rest of the Autobots." She tells him and he looks back at her with a sad but appreciative smile.
