Author's Notes:

The end is near...

I mean the story, of course! And of course, thoughts and comments appreciated!

Galvatron leered all around the corridors of the insides of Unicron, in search for Sunset Shimmer. If there was any means of being free from Unicron's pain, it'd be killing her.

"I know you're here Sunset... there's nowhere to hide."

Sunset held her back against a wall as she hid from Galvatron.

"I'm not going to fight you. You were blackmailed against your will in all of this, I can't fight you for that."

"If you aren't going to fight, then I will find you and rip you apart!"

Sunset still refused to budge from her hiding spot.

"Listen to me Galvatron, I know you. I know you don't want Unicron to win, and you can't let him win. You're stronger than he is in every way imaginable."

Galvatron panted heavily as he desperately tried to find her. "Unicron is the only reason I'm still here today... But if there's one thing I'll agree on with you, is that I am the only one who will be conquering the galaxy!"

"Then lets work together! We're all going up against Unicron right now, just listen to me!"

A laser cannon blasted a rim of the wall she hid against, letting her yelp. She quickly ran from that wall and found another spot for herself to hide in, while Galvatron ran to where she was last hiding. His eyes pulsed with red energy and he snarled at her disappearance.

"Come out Autobot! We all must die sometime!"

Sunset lept out of hiding, and then flipped around into her hot rod mode, ready for action.

"Not today, Galvatron!"

She vroomed right at his legs, throwing him up in the air and landing on his back. Sunset swerved around and came charging back, ramming over Galvatron.

Out of rage, Galvatron got back up on his feet and started to shoot her with his pulsar cannon. He fired several waning shots that were within range, but none of them managed to shoot the speeding hot rod. Sunset came flying around again and this time dived straight at the Decepticon. She ran over him, and spun around.

Galvatron transformed into his cannon form and started shooting heavier fire onto Sunset. Transforming into her biped form, Sunset aimed her arms towards the Decepticon leader and started shooting lasers from the tailpipes that were connected on her arms.

Galvatron transformed back again and charged towards Sunset Shimmer, tackling her to the ground. The two of them wrestled and wriggled, trying to find each other's weak points.

"First Optimus Prime... then yourself... its a pity you Autobots fall so easily..." Galvatron panted.

Sunset kicked Galvatron's chest, throwing him off of her. She tackled him down, trying to pin him down long enough. With him down, Sunset faced him dead in the eye, face to face.

"I'm not going to kill you Megatron."

Galvatron froze. He hadn't been called that name since he was floating about in space.

"Listen to me. I know Unicron's had you under his control, under his own fingertips. But you don't have to anymore. Your Decepticon army is battling Unicron as we speak, and they're trying to make sure they themselves see the day that they take over the universe... and with you leading their cause. I know you're stronger than this Galvatron, and I know you want to stay leader of the Decepticons."

Galvatron didn't scream or yell. He listened with the upmost patience, hearing Sunset's words.

"And if you're leader of the Decepticons... then I'd like to offer a truce... for now. We all work together, and we take down this god to make sure that both sides come out alive."

Sunset got off of the Decepticon leader, and she offered him a hand.

Galvatron sneered for a moment, before his face went neutral.

"I may be wrong about you after all..." Galvatron accepted her hand, and got back up on his feet. He brushed himself off and looked Sunset dead in the eye. "Very well. For the future of my Decepticon empire, I will work with you... for now."

In another part of Unicron's head, Tremors stood facing the Shadowbolt team who were all happy to be reunited with Sour... but there was still question as to where Smallfoot was.

"What did you do to her girlfriend?" Hound asked, gritting his teeth.

"Now why should I care? I thought she only wanted her for her... well, I don't think its for her personality." Tremors giggled.

"Tell us now!!!" Sugarcoat yelled.

"Very well then. I ran into her when I was looking for Sour and well... lets just say she never saw me coming. I claimed a little trophy as well."

Tremors pulled something from her back, and threw it up into the air which landed straight down in front of the Bolts feet with a giant bang. The piece that landed in front of them was a black grille guard with a pair of headlights attached.

"No... no..." Sour whimpered. "B-Baby..."

Sugarcoat along with everyone else had similar looks. They were gritting their teeth, their eyebrows were furled, and their fists looked like they could squeeze the life out of a predator.

"That's it... I'm going to send you to h@i1!!!!" Sugarcoat yelled.

"Good luck!" Tremors yelled as she ran towards them.

Everyone screamed and ran forward as they began their attack. All except for three individuals.

"Aren't you going to participate in the attack?" Hoist asked.

"I would, but I think there's something we've got to do first. I don't know how well our friends are doing outside, but we have to buy them some time. If we can set a bomb and rig it to explode, we might be able to help our friends."

"But what do we set it to?" Hoist asked.

"How about the boiling pit where many of our brethren are falling?" Overload asked pointing to the smelting pit where more innocent Cybertronians continued to fall and perish.

"Good idea. Did anyone bring anything to make a bomb?"

"It just so happens I brought the supplies I need. Overload, I may require your assistance."

"I rather kill that Shadowcon. Tremors is the one who hurt Road Rage, and she's going to die."

"You can get revenge later, just help him set the bomb." Sugarcoat said as she rushed into the fight.

Right away, Hoist and Overload began to set the bomb.

"Alright, I'll tell you how this bomb's going to work, because its going to be a little complicated."

"And why are you telling me?" Overload asked.

"Because I'm the only medic on standby, and I need to be ready for when someone needs repairs and that includes yourself."

Overload said nothing else.

"Anyways, first you want to flip these two toggle switches up. Then after that, you need to press the blue triangle button--"

"Where did you even get that?"

"Lemon Zest threw in some of her old keyboards she doesn't use anymore. Very generous of her. Anyways, after you press that, you press the big red button on the right. It'll give us five minutes to get out before it detonates. Now whatever you do... do not press the red button on the left, because that will set off the bomb immediately, and all of us will die. Good? Good. Now lets go!"

The Shadowbolts dashed into the fight, and used all of their might to fight. Unfortunately, Tremors was anticipating all of their moves. Lemon Zest tried to jump up on her, and Tremors just kicked her like a soccer ball right at Blaster, and the two of them came down on their backs.

Hound tried to shoot Tremors with his gun, but none of the lasers made a dent into her armor. And Indigo Zap didn't have much luck either. Both of them were quickly punched down onto their behinds faster than a dodge ball to the face.

Sour was about to make her next move but Tremors grabbed her and held her in her hand and pointed a gun at her.

"All of you, back away! You value the life of your fleshy humans, don't you?"

Everyone wanted to fight, but they had no choice. One wrong move, and Sour got hurt or worse... death would become her new state.

"You won't get away with this!" Sugarcoat yelled.

"A bit cliche, isn't it?" Tremors chuckled. "But I don't think it matters, you will all die just like your friends, and we'll be laughing when you perish from the universe!

Little did she see that a figure stood behind her and was ready to fight. Tremors attention was onto her after a piece of metal was tossed at the back of her head.

"Hey! Who did that?"

A bright flash of a headlight blinded her eyes, making her drop Sour onto the ground and back away in pain.

"AGH!!! That light!!!"

Overload, taking his chance, pounded the Shadowcon onto the ground off to the side. Everyone looked to who made the attack and big smiles crept their faces. Out of the shadows was Smallfoot who had a smile on her face. But they could tell she had suffered a sheer amount of damage. She lost a finger on her left hand and on her right, one of the headlights on her chest was broken, her visor was cracked with a few shards loose and gone, and there were several scrapes and cuts on her own armor.

"Smallfoot!" Everyone smiled.

"Y-You're okay?" Lemon gasped.

"I thought you and Sour died from Unicron's attack."

Smallfoot had a few strange expressions on her face, most of them frowning, but eventually a response came. But oddly enough, it was coming from her radio.

I will survive!
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart

Everyone blinked.

"Um... okay. Well, great to see you're okay." Hound smiled.

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down!
Never gonna run around and, desert you!

Shrugging at the music, Sugarcoat unexpectedly, leapt up at Sour Sweet and Smallfoot, trying to hold them both in a giant hug.

"Um... Sugarcoat? Are you okay?"

Sugarcoat sniffled and she looked at them with the most joyous of faces.

"I'm just so happy that you're both okay. I don't know what I'd do if something happened..."

Sour smiled back. "Its okay. We're alright. I promise. Now come here!"

Sour hugged Sugarcoat back, and Smallfoot moved in giving them a bigger hug than ever.

"Aw come here ya teddy bear, let us all in!"

Everyone joined in for one big hug, all finally relaxed and calm. Smallfoot and Sour were back alive, and nothing could have gone wrong anymore. But Outback and Sunny Flare looked closely, their eyes bulged. Something on Smallfoot seemed a little... wrong.

"Um, guys?" Sunny interrupted.

Everyone backed away.

"What, what's wrong?" Indigo asked.

"Actually, I think Sunny's onto something. I don't mean to be a downer, but does anyone else notice something a bit off on Smallfoot?"

"Outback, you can't point out her wounds. The poor girl has probably been through enough." Hoist said.

"That's not what I meant Hoist. Wait... look at her throat."

Everyone squinted their eyes closely at the Guardian's throat, and gasped. There were two holes jotted into her neck, and it looked like someone had ripped something right out of her from the gaping hole in the middle.

"Oh my god... baby, what happened to you?" Sour gasped.

Smallfoot frowned and hung her head.

"Wait, can't you tell us?"

Smallfoot looked back up with a sad look and shook her head.

"You can't... oh my god. No..."

Smallfoot nodded and sniffled.

"Oh you poor thing..." Outback said.

"That's not cool." Blaster shook his head.

"I'm really sorry Smallfoot." Hound said, patting her shoulder. "Wait, who did that to you?"

"Looking for something?" Tremors asked.

Everyone looked back to Tremors who stood with a smirk underneath her mask. In her own hands were two small boxes, each were different sizes.

"Sour, I have two things I think your girl may want..."
