Predaking was kneeled before me as he gently held my soft fleshy hands, I felt so much relief that he was here. I immediately threw my arms around his spiked neck in a hug, feeling his arms wrap around me in return.

"Predaking...what's going on? How are you here?" I ask.

"Cortical psychic patch, Springlock. I am here to keep your mind from falling apart." He said.

Hollup WHAT?

"What are you talking about?" I ask worriedly.

"Primus and Unicrons battle is destroying your mind from their power. If it continues for much longer, you will never awaken.

"In other words...I'm dying?" I asked sheepishly.

"Yes...But I will not allow it to happen. I promise you that, my Queen." His voice had much seriousness in it.

Predaking held me tighter in his arms, I could feel his warmth and I began to feel much more at ease. The ground beneath us had almost ceased to crumble as I felt much calmer, not even the 2 Cybertronian gods fighting did much damage now. It was beginning to repair itself with the better I felt. The King looked around us to see the ground reforming.

"It would seem Unicron is feeding off of your fear. You must give Unicron NOTHING to feed off all the while Quintessa prepares to banish him from you." He pulled back and looked into my eyes.

"How?" I tilt my head.

The look in Predaking's optics indicated that he had an idea, his soft smile turned into a smug smirk. I was mildly curious as to what he was thinking, raising an eyebrow.

"If you must be in a panicked state for him to feed, you must be in a good mood to weaken him. Perhaps this will enlighten you." He purred.

I was confused as to what he meant until he leaned in and kissed me on the lips. I was paralyzed as I wasn't expecting it, it felt rather unnatural at first with feeling metal on my lips. But I quickly adjusted and felt my heart flutter with joy, I closed my eyes.

The ground beneath them all began reforming much faster from all the previous damage from what everyone could see, Quintessa held the gems in her servos as she was preparing to banish Unicron for good. Springlocks family was silent as they saw that Predaking had just suddenly kissed their daughter, unsure of how to react. Although they knew he had asked Springlock to be his, they thought that she would have said no. But she had gladly accepted to be his, and he hers.

Unicron swung his axe at Primus who had in turn blocked it with his staff, pushing the shadow bear back with ease as he was weakening with each passing moment. Unicron looked at himself, filled with anger as to why he was much weaker than before.

"WHAT?! Why is my strength diminishing?!" He roared.

Primus looked to see Predaking kissing his Queen, he was rather relieved to see that the male Predacon was doing well in keeping her calm.

"Predaking, continue this for just a bit longer!" He shouted in their direction.

Unicron saw the King with the human and roared in anger, he raised axe and threw it in Predaking's direction. Sarah's eyes snapped open as she pulled away from him suddenly, she saw the large axe coming at them.

"Preda look out!!" She shouted.

The male Predacon rapidly turned to see the weapon coming, he quickly grabbed the human while pulling her and himself out of the way. The axe wooshed past them mere seconds after moving, nearly striking him in the side of his helm.

"Quintessa if you are to banish him, do so NOW! Unicron is weakened!" Predaking yelled upwards, praying the others would hear.

"Quickly, before Unicron regains his strength." Optimus told the hovering femme.

Quintessa nodded and placed the gems upon Springlocks chestplate, each of them beginning to glow brightly. Splotches of purple lights appeared where the dark energon was present, the patches slowly vanishing as the stones began the process. Meanwhile the purple void around them began to desaturate, both the gods noticing the changes.

"It should not be long now until he is gone." Predaking looked to the human.

"Thank GOODNESS! I'm hating this." Sarah said.

Primus took a chance while Unicron was distracted by the sight around them, he swung his staff and struck Unicron upside the head. The Chaos bringer roared as he fell to the ground, dark energon leaking from the wound. He was weakened tremendously as he was struggling to heave himself to stand, despite his efforts Unicron did not have the strength to stand. Predaking and Springlock cautiously approached Primus and Unicron.

"It would seem your time here is coming to an end." Primus said to the fallen Chaos bringer.

The shadow bear snapped his head to look at Primus, Predaking and Springlock. He growled as he kept attempting to stand.

"Mark my words...this will NOT...be the last you see of me..." Unicrons breath rasped, his body starting to fade.

*   *   *   *

Unicron faded away, the world around us now a light blue. Primus' staff disappeared as he sighed deeply, he turned to face Predaking and I.

"Unicron will no longer be a nuisance to either of you, and I congratulate you both to being King and Queen." Primus said.

"Thank you." I smiled.

"Now you must awaken from this nightmare." Primus snapped his fingers.

A bright white flash occurred.
