Third Persons POV~

"Throw that human to the trash!" Lockdown ordered as the white SUN was dragged away with Tessa still inside. The metal of the vehicle making an ear splitting sounds as it was carried out.

The sounds of clashing metal, and roars from protests from within Lockdowns shipped echoed in the vast space of it.

Meanwhile Optimus had been strapped down to a berth, that had carried him down the hallway with Lockdown walking beside him. The autobot leader groaned from the pain in his left shoulder from where the missle had hit him. It tooks chucks of metal and body armor from his shoulder.

The mech knew struggling would only tighten the mechanisms that were holding him down. That being said he did his best to take a good look at his new found surroundings.

All while being taken by Lockdown Optimus couldn't help but worry for (Y/n). He could sense (her/his/their) fear of the unknown that laid ahead of (her/his/them). '(Y/n) can you hear me? Are you alright?'

'Optimus?! Optimus where are you?!' His spark throbbed as he could hear the fear and pain through (Y/n)'s thoughts. He had to figure out a way to get back to (her/him/them). If anything there was the unknown of what Lockdown could possibly do to (Y/n) if he were to find out about his sparkbond with a human.

It was never known for his kind of species to ever sparkbond with a human let alone love a human being. Love was never an option for his kind. Nor was it something that was common for his species. Interfacing was also an uncommonly thing that was done, let alone to interface with a human being.

Optimus would be lucky if Lockdown wasn't suspicious of anything to do with him and (Y/n) but to his luck; the bounty hunter had Prime all figured out.

"Remember this ship, Prime? Built for all you knights, great crusaders? To explore the universe?" Lockdown began with a sharp and icy tone.

"Well I condered it with my personal prison now." He spat as the little machines that have been attached to the autobot leader dragged him into a section of the ship that consisted of three to four prison cells.

"Welcome back to the knights terminals Prime." The bounty hunter growled out, staring down at Optimus.

The Autobot leader struggled to lift his helm from off the ground as he narrowed his optics at Lockdown. "You have disgraced it." He sneered before turning his gaze away from his.

Optimus's optics locked his gaze towards another Bot that was hanging upside down in its cell. Its red optics glowed with rage as its red orbs locked on his.

"Join your fellow rebels fugitive scum. Its for the rarest of specimens. The worst of the worst. Its taken centuries but I have collected all the knights but you!" Lockdown exclaimed, transforming his servo into a large hook as he walked over to Optimus.

The bounty hunter was more than pleased as he rammed the large hook into the side of Optimus's ped, digging it in deep to get a good grip on the Autobot leader. With a faint grunt, Locked dragged Optimus towards the empty cell.

Optimus grunted and groaned as the new rush of pain flooded through him. Without a moment of delay a claw from within the cage grabbed hold of his entire ped, pulling him in and up so that he upside down.

Optimus grunted as he was slammed against the cell as the claw like mechanism pulled him up. "The creators want to sweep their chess board clean." Lockdown stated as he changed his hook back to his servo.

Optimus stared at the mech, rage was all he could feel. Yet he felt utterly uselessly as he wasn't able to escape let alone defend himself against him.

Suddenly multiple blades unseathed from the walls of the cell. The sharp blades pointing towards his torso, and helm.

"I am a slave to no one." He spat, as Lockdown scoffed as he walked towards the helpless Autobot leader, kneeling down so he could be at optics-level with the leader.

"All these species mixing with species," he began as he aggressive grabbed hold of Optimus's face. "It upsets the cosmic balance. The creators, they don't like it." Lockdown added on, his face inching closer and closer to him.

"If you think you could hide the fact that you have sparkbonded with a human. You have disgrace us." He added on, Optimus optics widened for a moment as Lockdown chuckled.

"If you thought for a moment at all that a human like that wretched scum you call your sparkmate could ever live in harmony with our kind then you are wrongly mistakened." He added on, as he seemed to enjoy toying with the Autobot leader.

"If you dare to touch them I will kill you." Optimus spat as he clenched his servos into fists.

Lockdown smirked as he took notice of the new found rage Optimus had. "Its a shame that I had run out of time. I would've enjoyed tearing your poor excuse of a sparkmate to shreds." He said with a faint laugh as Optimus went ridged.

"They built you to do what you were told." He spat, pushing Optimus's face away causing him to swing back and slam against the cage once again.

Lockdown stepped away from Optimus and activated the cage door to lock him inside. The bounty hunter stared at Optimus in disgust before storming out of the knights chambers.

"Such a waste. All for a disgusting human. What a disgrace."

Y/N POV~

"What the hell happened?!" Swiftdagger snapped as Bee ended up bringing the three of you to the where they all agreed to meet up.

"Optimus was taken, so was Tessa." You replied as she growled, "how was that even possible? Who took them?!"

"Lockdown."

"Lockdown?!" Hound said as you nodded. "I don't know how he managed to find him but he did. Weirdly enough Lockdown had no intrest in Galvatron. Only Optimus." You exclaimed as you anxiously picked at your nail beds.

"Where did *bzt* they take them?" Bee asked as Cade cleared his throat, "to his alien ship."

"Its a fragging suicide mission!" Crosshairs cursed out as he glared at Swiftdagger. "You better not agree with Mrs. Prime here on a rescue mission." He sneered as she barred her fangs at him.

"We're getting Optimus and Tessa back." She snapped as she glared at the green mech.

"Its my fault Tessa got into this mess." You spoke up as Cade sighed, "(Y/n) it's not your fault okay? All that matters now is that we're going to get her back." Cade assured as you forced a nod.

"Well should we get going then? Unless you guys have some other sort of plan?" Shane asked as he was anxiously waiting for your next move.

"We have to get to the ship! If we get on before it takes off we'll have a chance find her." You said as Crosshairs was clearly still pissed off about the whole situation.

Drift bowed his head, "that settles it then."

"Hooah! Let's bring the boss back!" Hound said as the Bots quickly transformed into their alt modes and sped down the highway.

"Why hasn't it taken off yet?" Shane shouted as Cade peered out the window. "Come on Bee its descending, we gotta get on it!"

In moments Bee pulls up to the bridge as Cade, Shane and yourself get out. All six Autobot's transform and Bee follows Cade as he ran over, to the ledge of the railing.

"Come on Bee let's go!" Cade shouted as Bee grabbed the you, Shane and Cade in his arms and fired his grapple hook at the ship in order to get on the ship.

"It's a bad idea but I'm all about bad ideas! Let's go!" Hound said as he jumped onto the ship, holding onto one of the panels.

Crosshairs sighed, as he jumoed on next, landing next to Hound, "Well let's rock!"

The six Bots including you, Shane and Cade, walk over to the open hole to wear you'd be able to enter the ship. "This is crazy.." Shane mumbled as Cade looked over at him.

"Look you want to cut and run, you better do it now." Cade said as he glared over at Shane.

"No one is going anywhere. We're here to save Tessa, and get Optimus back." Swiftdagger growled as Bee stood behind his sparkmate, gun ready to fire if needed.

"We're behind enemy lines now. Lockdown's ship has boobytraps, eyes opened." Hound exclaimed as they all climbed into the ship.

"Beware there's bone grinders, brain blinders, flesh peelers, chromosomal inverters, catatonic sludge, black hole trap doors, and,of course radiation." Crosshairs exclaimed listing all the traps and other things that were inside ship.

Drift sighed, looking over at the Autobot team. "We must be quick, we have the element of surprise let's try to use violence as last resort."

Just as he said that, out of nowhere a long metal tentacle appeared out from the the large metal wall as Drift snarled cutting it to pieces.

"Get it!" Crosshairs yelled out as Drift snarled. "I kill you! I kill you!"

"Ugh..I hate those things.." Crosshairs whined as Bee whirred loudly in annoyance.

"It's not alive anymore." Drift exclaimed as he places his swords back in its cases that rested on his back.

"Well we looked, they're not here let's go!" Crosshairs exclaimed as he did a 360° spin.

"What? Hey, I'm not leaving without Tessa!" Cade snapped as you glared over at Crosshairs. "You were given orders, I expect you to follow them."

"I'm unclear, what's in it for me?" He spat as you clenched your jaw. Before you could say another word Hound had beat you to it.

He held onto one of his gun pointing it to the green mech he raised his servos up in surrender. "Easy, easy, let's use words.." Crosshairs said as Hound snorted in disgust, pressing the tip of his gun barrel to Crosshairs face.

"What's in it for you it that I don't kill you. We're getting the boss back, and Girl. Copy?" He demanded as he pulled his gun away.

"Ok, ok very persuasive. Textbook machismo." Crosshairs replied as he placed his guns back at his side's. "We'll need to sabotage something." He added on as he looked around.

"Better hurry, because dark-matter drives are preparing to take off." Drift exclaimed as he looked around the ship.

"Ugh..wonderful.." The green mech growled as he grimaced.

"I'll give us ten minutes." Drift exclaimed as Swiftdagger scoffed, "I fragging hate Lockdown."

"Is that what the sound is? That the engine is filling up! Are you telling me that this thing-that this is gonna be flying out of here in ten minutes?!" Shane shrieked as Crosshairs nodded, "are you serious? Ten minutes?!"

"It could be now, worse case seven." Drift replied as you sighed. "The three of us will look for Tessa."

"Will find the centre cord." Hound said as Cade took the lead. You looked back at the Bots. "Just be careful, and bring back Prime in one peice."

"You got it boss." Hound said as Crosshairs looked over at Hound, "(she/they/he) is sparkmates with Optimus. That practically makes (she/they/he) our boss."

"Let's stop this nightmare ship." Crosshairs growled as the green mech followed Hound.

The three of you walked down the metal hallway, which led to a metal ledge that gave a full view of Lockdown's ship.

"We're never gonna find her in this huge ship. It's like finding a needle in a haystack." Cade said as he looked around.

As you stepped near the edge Shane takes in a deep breath as he cups both hands over his mouth.

"TESSA!"

Cade smacks his arm, glaring at him as Shane's voice echoes through the ship, as a bunch of robots began to roar with protest "Great, great..well that was smooth."

You groaned, rubbing your temples, "no that was really smooth, let everyone know we're here. Now they're gonna be looking for us." You grumbled as Cade glared at Shane.

"Hurry up we got like six minutes." Cade exclaimed as he took the lead once again. You follow close behind both men. You were afraid of what laid ahead for the three of you. Was Optimus okay?

You scoffed at your own thoughts, of course he's okay. He has to be okay. The thought of him made your heart hurt, the fear of losing him again was all you could think about. It brought tears to you (e/c) eyes.

You and Optimus had been through so much. From three dreading wars, and being on the run for five years...the amount of both you and Prime lost in the process. When would the endless heartbreak and pain stop?!

He suddenly comes to a stop which snaps you back to reality. You paused for a moment as you stood next to him. "Hold up.." he said softly as a small drone appeared at the end of the hall.

"Hurry this thing is gonna find us hide." Cade hissed as the three of you went for cover.

You enter a open room with four entrances in each corner, wire and cables laid on the metal flooring. It was a weapons room.

Cade had jumped onto the round metal table that consisting of many large swords that were sheathed into the table.

Without paying attention he leaned on one of the swords causing each wall that had a Cybertronian Prime slowly dissappear revealing weapons of all sorts.

The three of you watched in awe as the statues detransformed.

"Weapons." Both you and Cade said as he jumped down and ran to one of the walls.

"Come here, help me. Hurry, hurry!" Cade said as Shane ran over to help me climb up the wall using the large swords and other alien artillery that were on display.

"Cade you're crazy!" You cursed as you rushed over as he tossed down one of the smaller looking weapons.

You catch it and quickly pass it to Shane just as Cade dropped the other one down. "Those should do it then." You said with a faint smile as you handed Cade the other alien type gun.

"You just stay behind Shane and I."

You arched a brow, "Cade incase you forgotten I've been in three alien wars, including this one which makes it four. I think I can defend myself." You replied, crossing your arms over your chest.

Before Cade could reply you could hear Lockdown's guards coming in closer.

"Quick we need to hide!"

You grabbed Cade's arm as Shane quickly follows behind the two of you as you duck down underneath the round table.

Shane peeked his head around just as the red scanners from the drones came into veiw.

"What is that?"

"I don't know." Cade said, his breathing became sharp and heavy, "you guys ready?"

"Run!"

The three of you run, quickly catching their attention. They snarled as the bots began to open fire. Shane groaned as he tripped over the cables that laided scattered on the floor like vines.

You quickly grabbed him, dragging him under the round table. You sighed, slumping down on the ground.

"You're gonna get us killed Cade." You said in between breaths. "I'd much rather keep my head thank you." You added on with a sideways glance towards Cade.

"Look we're not going down without a fight! They're gonna turn that corner and were gonna take 'em."

You nodded as Cade was glaring right at Shane who looked more than terrified. "You ready or you're going to pitch out on us?" You asked as he quickly nodded.

"I got your back!"

"Are you ready?!" Cade yelled out as Shane nodded again, "absolutely!"

"You better not pitch out on us, are you ready?!" You asked again, clearly you knew that he was going to pitch out.

"Yeah! Yeah!" And before you and Cade could say another word Shane ran out from under the table, gun raised above his head.

"Hey whoa! Whoa! I surrender! I surrender!"

Just as he dropped the gun the weapon fired, cause the shot to ricochet and ended up hitting one of the mechs. You ran out to grab the gun he dropped, just as he ran back to Cade to apologize repeatedly.

"How did you do that?!" You snapped clearly pissed off that tried to surrender instead of fighting them. God what the hell does Tessa see in this guy?! He's a totally wimp!

"I have no idea!" Shane yelled back, raising his hands in surrender as you came to realize you were pointing the gun right at him. Meh, he deserves it anyways...

Without a second to dely Cade ended up figuring it out. "See that?!" Cade asked; accidently pulling the trigger and fired it.

"Alright let's kick some ass." You said, smirking widely at Cade. He smiled over at you before glaring at Shane; "you stay here, lucky charms."

You and Cade ran out from under the table and got right to work. You took the first shot, taking out the bots arm before firing another shot at its helm.

Cade and you stood back to back as you took out the drones and the other large mech that came charging towards the two of you, firing wildly in your direction.

"Take that you little bitch!" You yelled out as you took out another drone just as Cade took down the last bot. "Oh man, I'm so going to patent this shit!"

You couldn't help but laugh at his exictment, "You're such a nerd Yeager." You said in between giggles as he rolled his eyes, "oh excuse me (Ms/Mr) I've been in three alien wars."

You shoot him a wink and walked over to Shane who looked as if he had just shit himself. "You okay there Lucky Charms?" You asked as he scoffed, muttering under his breath as he got himself up. Tessa has interesting taste in men...its not the greatest but I guess it's okay..

You sighed as you got back to thinking about Prime. You took in a deep breath, nows not the time we need to-

'(Y/n)...'

'Optimus!'

Your eyes began to water, 'Optimus we're here! We're coming to find you!'

'You need to get out of here, the autobots have created a diversion in order to prolonge the ship.'

'And what about you?'

'Don't worry about me, right now just focus on getting out. As long as you are safe that's all that matters.'

Your heart swelled as you forced a nod. 'Okay, I love you. See you soon.'

'I love you too.'

"TESS!" Cade shouted out as the three of you run down the narrow hallway. "Dad! Dad help me!" She screamed as her voice echoed through the ship.

"TESSA!" You yelled out as Cade lead the way, running towards Tessa voice. As the three of you turned the corner there was Tessa just running out from the other end of the hallway.

"TESSA!" Cade shouts as Tessa ran towards the three of you. Cade opened up his arms, welcoming her in for a hug but instead she leaped into her boyfriends arms. "Shane! Shane! I love you, I love you! You saved me, thank you! Thank you!" She cried out as Shane held her close. "I know it's ok.."

"Thank you, thank you, you saved me thank you." Tessa said again, clinging onto Shane for dear life. In a way you thought it was cute and god Cade's reaction made you want to laugh.

Cade snorted in disgust. "Oh yeah, he saved you. Yep. I think you and Mr. "I Surrender" have a lot to catch up about, sweetie." Cade said as you sighed, patting Cade on the back.

"He saved me, too. You should've seen him in there. I mean, our hero." You said with a faint laugh as Cade rolled his eyes.

"Lets go, now." Cade said as he took Tessa's hand in his and continued to run down the metal hall and around another corner.

The four of you cut through another set of bars that led to a turbine. Of course it took some time just so each of you were able
