Burning in the Shadows
Chapter Eight : Waking life
"Faster!" Amber yelled at Sideswipe, her eyes trying to keep track of Jazz.
"Any faster than this and we'll get noticed by the cops sweet-cheeks." The cars engine rumbled but even so the speed went up.
"We'll miss him! I can barely see him now!" Distress colored her voice as her eyes squinting trying to track of the now very faint, distant glowing orb. The cars engine accelerated and they went 40 over the limit.
"Kid, what the hell happened? Wasn't he here with you?" Sideswipe asked Amber as she frowned.
"I don't know what happened." Amber watched as they gained speed, the car going way to fast for a normal human contraction. "We were just talking and then suddenly he said he could feel him and bolted."
"Yeah, Jazz never was predictable after all."
"Watch out!" Amber shrieked as Sideswipe dangerously passed a truck, almost brushing it's paint. She felt the seatbelt tighten around her.
"Relax blondie. I'm one of the fastest 'bots here on earth now. I'm not going to crash!" Amusement laced Sideswipe's voice making Amber frown deeply, still trying to keep her eyes on Jazz.
"Somehow that doesn't make me feel better..." Amber watched as the glowing orb gained more speed. "I am shocked Jazz is going so fast just to get to him..." Amber growled slightly annoyed, although she knew Jazz wanted to get to Prowl, she didn't want to loose him.
"Who's Him?" The silver car asked.
Amber's frown turned in to a grimace as she answered "…Prowl"
The speed only accelerated.
********************
Jazz stopped in front of a parked police car.
"…Prowl?" He whispered but when he got no response he got closer and asked louder. "Prowler?" But the car just didn't hear him.
"Come on love." He tried to touch the car but it repelled him. That has never happened before. Jazz started to glow even brighter, indicating his distress.
"Please, please, please answer me!" He pleaded and flew franticly around the car. "Come on! Prowl!" He screamed. "Ah did not look this long for you to not see me!" He flew over the car and hit it's hood by his small form. The car did not even flinch.
"PROWLER!" He shrieked. Jazz was about to scream some more at him but the car suddenly started transforming. Hope started to grow in his spark. Maybe…maybe Prowl heard him!
But that hope perished when he noticed his bond mate online his weapons. He was about to ask what the heck was going on but a shriek and a low curse had him turning around.
Right there stood a fully transformed Sideswipe and a frightened Amber sitting on the ground.
*********************************
"B-Big..." Was all Amber could muster as she watched the big form of Sideswipe. She knew they were big, Jazz had told her that but….only now did Amber fully realize that they were so huge in person.
"Aw frag!" Sideswipe cursed and brought out his blades with a almost silent hiss. "Primus must be in a mood today." He muttered and observed as the cybertronian in front of his brought out their weapons.
"….Who is that?" Amber finally asked as she regained her footing and went behind Sideswipe.
"That's Barricade. That's one mean 'con to handle." The silver warrior growled not happy admitting that this con was a skilled fighter. Barricade was different from the other 'cons. That's what made his stronger - he was smart, very start. He used his CPU when fighting leaving him victorious in many battles.
"Your going to have to take cover Blondie!" He took a fighting stance. "Things are bout to get a whole lot messier." Sideswipe growled glaring at Barricade.
Amber bit her lower lip as she observed the other alien being. He seemed so much more frightening than Sideswipe, it was way more spikier and darker in colors with red optics that Amber knew it indicated he was a Decepticon. She was about to say something but that was forgotten when she noticed a blue orb floating around the 'con. And that was when her body acted on instinct.
"Jazz!" She yelled and ran at full speed toward the 'con "Jazz!" She yelled louder and watched as the orb finally noticed her. The floating spark flew strait at her, knocking her to the ground.
"Ow…What the hell Jazz?" Amber sat up completely oblivious to the world around her.
Jazz looked franticly between her and the 'con who was now taking aim at Sideswipe.
"Amber, baby. You have to get out of here! Now!"
"What, no!" She yelled in a way that it sounded enraged, as got away from Jazz who was pushing her away. "You said Prowl was near! We could find him and ask him to help!" She protested. Jazz was about to answer but a loud boom stopped him. The two of them looked over, the battle had started. Jazz knew it wont be long before reinforcements came. Which was good for Sides, but for…
"Sideswipe!" Amber yelled when the silver warrior took a bad hit to the side.
"It'll take much more than that to take down 'Swipe, sparklin'." Jazz reassured Amber who had a panicked look on her face and proceeded to guide Amber away.
"But we have to help him! He's going to get killed!" Funny a small human against a huge and deadly Decepticon.
"There's noting you can do Am. The least you can do is get away and give them space, otherwise you'll get caught in the fire."
Amber watched helplessly as the two giant alien robots fought.
******************************
"Long time no see 'Cade. Where did that turbo rat Frenzy ran of to? Oh, I remember - he got beheaded by a human!" Sideswipe charged but barricade effortlessly avoided. Sideswipe cursed. He was low on fuel - the long drive tired him more than he thought. He just hoped back up would be here soon.
"Pitiful Autobot!" Barricade fired his missiles, a couple of them hitting their intended target. "You should have stayed away from this planet, like your cowered brother!" That only seemed to fuel Sideswipe's anger as he laded a couple of strikes on the 'con.
"Never call me brother that again you scum!" Sideswipe charged and the two Cybertronians proceeded in hand-to-hand combat. Sideswipe soon found himself pinned, his neck cables being pressured more closer, cutting the flow of energon to his CPU. He was low on energy to begin with so it wasn't a surprise when he went in to stasis lock. The last thought Sideswipe had was
'Primus, Ratch' will be furious' And the world was no more to him.
Barricade just stood there lingering over the fallen body.
************************************************
"He's down!" Amber yelled no longer containing her self. "Jazz, we have to do something, anything!" She pleaded. Amber watched as the orb started to dim.
"Am, baby... There's something I gotta tell you first." Jazz regarded her. He knew this could make her hate him and in a way he deserved it.
"What? Now?" Amber looked between Jazz and the 'con at the other side.
"I already found Prowl." Stated Jazz and watched her expression turn in pure joy.
"Jazz that's wonderful!" She exclaimed. "Where is he?" Hope radiated from her. The orb dimmed dangerously low and answered in a whisper.
"…In front of you." But Amber heard it loud and clear.
Amber looked confused for a moment. She was about to ask what he meant as she suddenly went still and looked horrified at the 'con in front of her as it all slowly clicked in her head.
"….That's Prowl?" She whispered. "Prowl is 'con?" Her voice slowly raised. "Prowl is a fucking decepticon!" She exploded, her face was red with fury. She usually restrained her self from using such words but even that word couldn't describe how pissed off she felt right now.
"You lied to me Jazz!" She leaned into Jazz with a sneer covering her face.
"Ah know and I'm sorry-"
"'Sorry?' So you say your sorry for purposely lying to me, making me believe we were after some one good, some on who deserved to be saved." There were no words to describe how angry Amber was. "I left my family to help you, my life, my brother!" Amber's face was so close to Jazz's spark now. "Is everything you've told me a lie?" But her voice broke "…Do I mean anything to you?" She finally whispered. "I thought we were friends…."
"Oh Primus, baby. Yes! You do." Jazz, even though dead, felt his spark break slightly, Amber meant much to him. He never wanted her to think that they were nothing or that he just used her. "And Ah promise, I will tell you everything!" He gently brushed her with his warm spark.
"But he couldn't see me, he couldn't hear me. Am, he didn't even feel me." Amber heard how sad he was. "Ah know I have no right to ask this but you need to tell him you can see me." Amber just gave him a tired eye look.
*************************************************************
Barricade knelt in front of the fallen body, checking if it was alive. He observed as that there were no lethal wounds on it's frame. He was about to leave when his scanners detected a life form approaching. He would have been surprised at the fact that this small human was not afraid of him.
"Hey!" It yelled, he sneered at the insect, but it wouldn't back down. "Your Barricade, right?" It asked. He was about to leave when it, no it was a she, called him again. And this time it used a different name.
"Prowl!" She yelled but as soon as those words left her mouth the huge Decepticon tuned and in one swift move caught her in his servo in a tight hold.
"How do you know that name!" The 'con growled.
Amber trembled and looked at the orb that was floating next to her.
"…..I know who you are because Jazz told me." She chocked out slightly breathless. "…I can see your dead bond mate." The only response Amber got was the tightening of her hold.
