Sidestreaker

Chapter 10-Warzone, met Primes again & the Fallen, knows I'm Optimus' daughter

Sam P.O.V. "That's them, right there," I said as Mikaela, Leo, Simmons and I watched a flare fly into the sky from inside Bee and RJ from Sunstreaker. "See the flare?" I said and I know RJ rolled her eyes. "I'm sorry, I must have missed that bright shining thing that was launched into the air," she replied sarcastically through the walkie talkie. "Starscream's coming," she warned, but it was already too late. The second the last word left her mouth, Starscream came after them. "Whoa!" I exclaimed as Bee swerved, trying to get rid of Starscream. "Oh God. Please God! Please." Leo muttered. Mikaela glared at him. "Leo, stop freaking out. Stop freaking out." she said but Leo, however, ignored her. "Please God please..." Leo said and Simmons started talking over him. "Shut this guy up, huh?" he snapped. "Please, just let me live, just let me live!" Leo prayed. Mikaela let out a groan and put her hands on her ears. "Shut up, dude!" she shouted. "It's getting annoying! Sit still and be quiet! Bee needs to drive." Mikaela said angerly. "Just stop screaming..." I started. Simmons, apparently, had had enough. "That's it!" he declared, reaching into the backseat with the Taser and zapping Leo in the neck. 

"Can't take that guy anymore!" Simmons said started cracking up, but Starscream chose that moment to attack again. "Hide in the dust! Hide in the dust!" Simmons ordered. The five cars swerved into the dust, preventing Starscream from seeing them. Starscream, prey lost, headed towards the Pyramids of Giza. "We got to split up. Bumblebee, Sideswipe, and Sunstreaker, you're the decoys. You lead the Decepticons away, alright? And we're gonna get Optimus." I told them. After they had all climbed out of the car, Bee, Sunny and Sides sped off. "I'll help draw their fire with Huey and Dewey here," Simmons offered, gesturing to Skids and Mudflap. "You get to those soldiers. I hope that dust works, kid." Simmons said to Sam about the dust. "Thank you," I replied shocked and confused. 

 The former government agent towards RJ who got out of Sunstreaker and both Sunstreaker and Sideswipe drove after Bumblebee. "Get back to your father alive, alright? That's an order." he said. RJ nodded, and gave Simmons a quick hug, which he returned. Simmons then headed towards Skids and Mudflap, and after a second of hesitation, Leo followed him. The four of them instantly started driving away... in a bad direction. "Wait! There're a lot of Decepticons over there!" RJ shouted. However, they were already inside the cars and too far away to hear her. RJ turned to Mikaela and I. "They're probably going to die if they go over there." She said as I placed a hand on her shoulder. "We can't do anything about it. They already left, and we need to get to Optimus. Now." I told her. 

I tore off in the direction of the flare, RJ and Mikaela followed me. After a lot of hard running, RJ, Mikaela, and I were close to the village that the soldiers had used as base. RJ P.O.V. I sense a Decepticon coming close enough to see them and yanked Sam and Mikaela into a nearby hut. "I don't think they saw us," Sam said as I panted. Sam and Mikaela waited in silence. "Get down. Get down. Okay, listen. Once it's clear, we run for Optimus as fast as we can, okay?" I said but Mikaela frowned. "But what if it doesn't work?" she asked. I shook my head. "It's gonna work." I said this time. "Yeah, but what if it doesn't?" Mikaela repeated and I shook my head again. "It's gonna work," Sam said about it working. "It will work. It has to," I added. I looked at the ceiling of the hut like I was listening for something. "Optimus is our only chance of defeating the Fallen and saving humanity. If he doesn't come back, we're probably all going to end up freezing to death because we don't have a sun." Sam said about the things happening right now.

Suddenly, a crash sounded from outside. I tensed and placed my hands over the others' mouths, telling them to keep quiet. Once I was sure that they weren't going to speak, I moved my hands off. Starscream was out there, as well as the Decepticon who had helped the skinny one steal the shard and a few others. The Decepticons started growling some stuff in Cybertronian that I caught a bit of what was said from the Decepticon. "Humans inside the...... send in..... scout out the....," I heard. I glanced up at the ceiling again as a Decepticon walked by the house, causing dust to fall in. I glanced at Mikaela, who had placed her hand over her own mouth to stop herself from screaming. I sensed a small Decepticon, so small that I could barely able to sense it, was placed in a hole that led straight into the hut. I didn't move, hoping that it wouldn't come all the way into the hut and see the three of them hidden. Sam, however, didn't even wait for a chance to destroy it. He picked it out of the hole and watched as it struggled in his fingers. Before I could say anything, Sam peeled the head off.
