Sneaking away from N.E.S.T is probably the worst thing you can do, especially since the Decepticons are after me and intend to use me for a deadly weapon to extinct a whole race. So, now I am unprotected, walking through the train station, not even having a gun to protect me. Just a small knife Sunstreaker had once given me. It wouldn't do much and it didn't gave me a safe feeling either. He told me it was to protect myself against soldiers or other people. I wouldn't make a change against the Decepticons.
On purpose I left my phone at home, no one was able to track me. To cover my face, I wore a black cap, my hair in a pony tail and dark clothing. Black jeans, with a gray shirt and leather jacket. I tried to avoid Camara's as much as possible, but around here they're kind of everywhere. I kept my eyes pointed on the floor, not looking at people or Camara's. Some people gave me a strange look, it's not normal to see a 17 year old teen walking around as if she's running for the cops.

I excited the train station and took a cab towards my old town. Of course I wasn't sure if I could trust the person driving the car, but I had to take the risk. Walking means arriving when it's dark again. Right now, it's around 10 am, I had traveled the whole night and big part of the morning. The car arrived and I handed him some money before hopping out, making my way over to my old out, through the small town. Something was off though, there was no one on the street, every shop was closed and there's a creepy silence falling over the small town. I know this town is already kind of dead before I left, kind of everyone forgot about it, but it had never been this worse and I seriously wondered where all the people were.
Cautiously, I walked through the woods towards my old house. I didn't know why, but I felt the chills running over my spine, something was off. I knew it, I felt it. I halted, having the strong feeling was someone was watching me. I quickly looked around the area to see if there was anyone, all I saw was were the dark woods and shadows the trees formed on the road leading to our house.

I walked over to the front porch, seeing the door was open. I dropped my back slowly next the door, taking out my knife from the my jacket and pushed open the door. The door cracked a little, announcing someone was there. "Mom?" I asked, pushing ope the door a little bit further before stepping inside. There was no reaction.
I checked the living room before I walked upstairs, pushing open the door of the bedroom. I let out a small scream, jumping back in fear. My mom and 'father' laid on their shared bed, but blood was everywhere, on the floor, on the walls. My mom is decapitated and the man I always though he was my dad, ripped apart as if a tiger had attacked him. The turned and puked. It's absolutely disgusting and horrible to see... but the smell... it nearly killed me. I covered my my nose and backed off.

Who on earth killed them? Sunstreaker or maybe it was Megatron after I told him the truth. By smelling this, I knew they had to be dead for at least four days, maybe longer. Megatron hadn't been there the day Sideswipe saved me, but Sunstreaker hadn't been at the base either after he handed me to the Decepticons. Why would Sunny kill my parents? What's the logic of that? He did what he had to do. He betrayed me, he betrayed the Autobots and sent earth to its extinction.
I walked back towards the door, what am I supposed to do now? I hadn't expect this at all. For some reason, I didn't feel devastated, she had never been nice to me. She had always mentally hurt me and she lied to be about my family, so I don't feel sorry, but I am worried, I had hoped she could help me with some extra information, anything that could help me figure out where this weapon is. He must have had this plan for quite a long time, a back-up plane if he didn't succeed to retrieve the all-spark. My mom know Megatron, she could've helped me.

I walked outside, grabbing my backpack. I still had the feeling of being watched.
I walked off the tree stairs, heading back towards the road. On my left, I heard something, like footsteps quickly approaching. Before I was able to react or jump aside, a man jumped towards me, knocking me off my feet. I let out a scream, blood poured from several wounds on his body. "Get off me!" I shouted. "HE'S GOING TO KILL ME!" he shouted, clawing at me. I groaned, trying to push him away, but he was heavy and bigger. "He's going to kill me!" he hissed.
