My name is Katrin Rose Knox. Or at least, it was. You see, I'm dead. Or I should be. Right now I'm what you could call a spirit or something like that. I don't have a body any more, just a conscious that can see, hear, and move. But I can't be seen, heard, or touched. With the help of the Autobots I learned how to communicate directly into theirs and others minds. With training I learned how to communicate with several others at once.

This is probably a little confusing to you all so I'll start from the beginning. I'll tell you my story of how I died at the age of nineteen when me and my friends, who I later learned were not human, were attacked by what I learned were Decepticons.

"Hey! Twins!" I called out to my two best friends as I ran out of the bookstore I worked in. A few months ago I had met these two wandering around looking a little lost. I helped them out, a few days later they saved my sorry ass from some punks, and we have been best buds ever since then. Nearly every day they were here waiting for me to get out of work. Them and their fancy Lamborghinis. Both boys looked over at me grinning.

"Hey Fox" Ever since they had seen a picture of me dressed as a rather skanky fox for Halloween and then a picture of a real fox, they both had been calling me that. They said my hair was the exact shade of a fox tail; Sunny said it more often since he was the artist and had a keen eye for color. The fact that a while ago I had bleached the tips of hair didn't help my case either. When I put it up in a pony tail it was just like a fox tail. I kept meaning to get it cut but I keep forgetting.

I grinned at the boys as I walked over. Their names are Sunny and Sides. I thought that they were pretty weird names at first, but after a while I got used to it, and their odd lingo. Sunny was a secret artist and had a shock of bright yellow-blond hair; he owned the yellow car, while Sides had brilliant red hair and drove the red car. Both boys owned bright, dazzling blue eyes and were tall. Now most people are tall compare to my short stature of only 5'2, but these boys were close to 6'5.

They were fun, sweet, tough, cocky, arrogant, smart, protective, pranksters and were all mine. And they loved to drive fast. After I hugged them both I hopped into Sides car. We were going for a long speed drive. See, they both worked for the military and were going to be leaving in a few weeks for a while, so we wanted to spend some time together. They never tell me what they do, but they did tell me that they tracked down terrorists like the ones that attacked Mission city a few months back.

It always worried me that they were going to get hurt, a few times they had to leave for a few days and I didn't hear for them. But they always came back. Once they brought a comrade, Hide was his name. He was a massive man. He towered over the twins by a few inches and was packed with muscle. His deep pale blue eyes had stood out from his tan skin and black hair, a scar going over one eye from his eye bow to his cheek.

After he had left in his equally massive black truck, the twins told me that he had gotten the scar in a fight a long time ago. For the next few days I hardly let go of the twins, worried that something like that could happen to my seemingly indestructible boys.

But now here we were, laughing and doing well over ninety on a back road far from our city. The twins were racing around a makeshift track and I was whooping and hollering in delight, sitting in the passenger seat of Sides car.

"Get 'im Sides! He's gunna beat us!" I shouted as Sunny pulled ahead. Even after a few months of being with these guys I still retained some of my speech pattern of who I used to be before them.

But suddenly our fun came to an end. Less than fifty meters away the ground blew up. I barely choked out a scream as Sides pulled a u-turn and stopped, Sunny pulled right up beside him. At their beckoning I got out with them and stood between the two cars with the twins next to me.

"We don't have time to get her out of here Sunny, they'll get us before we get too far." I stared at Sides.

"Who's going to get us?" I was confused, but the look in the twins' faces made me feel very frightened.

Sunny looked at me with a sad, sad look. "We're so sorry Kat. We never wanted you to be drawn into this. We should of told you sooner before anything happened." I didn't understand anything that he was saying, but the next thing I knew, we were surrounded by six giant robots with red eyes. I was horror struck. What was going on?

"The terrorists we hunt are them. They are the Decepticons." Sides told me. My mind caught up to me then. I looked at them like they were crazy. "You fight giant freaken robots for a living. You guys are big, but not that big." They both gave me a sad smile. Something was wrong here wasn't it. They both wrapped me in a hug, whispering in my ears.

"Please forgive us" then suddenly they were gone. I just couldn't wrap my head around everything that was happening. I didn't understand it. One minute we were laughing and having fun, then giant evil robots surround us, and now my twins just vanished into thin air.

Things moved in slow motion all around me. My sole attention was on the cars. The cars that belonged to the twins, the cars that began to shift and reshape, reshape into giant robots. Nothing seemed real any more as the two formally car robots took defensive potions in front of me. Dimly I could hear them speaking. They were apologizing over and over and reassuring me that everything was going to be alright. The two new robots had the twins' voices. No. They were the twins, something deep inside my head thought.

Suddenly the world was a flurry of motion. Missiles were shot at us as the evil robots charged at us. The twins did their best to keep me out of harm's way, that much I knew and understood. They may have kept this a secret from me, but they still didn't want any harm to come to me.

However they were sadly out numbered. Sides had called for backup, but even I knew they wouldn't reach here in time. And there was no way they twins could keep me safe and fight them all. As if to prove my point, the world all around me seemed to explode. I was dimly aware of Sunny screaming my name along with Sides, but I felt nothing and couldn't register what happened.

Until I hit the ground. My entire body was broken and I couldn't move. I heard more screaming, it was distinctly female, and then it registered that it was me screaming. I began to hyperventilate and saw more cars speeding towards the fray. I could recognize Hides truck. So back up was finally here.

I should have been shocked to see the vehicles driving themselves but it barely registered. What did register was the fact that they transformed into giant robots and helped my twins, who soon came rushing to my side. As giant robots. Did I care? It hardly registered in my brain. It could only tel them apart because of their colors.

"Oh Primus Katrin" Sides breathed. I struggled to focus. He only ever called me that when he was either serious or if it was something bad.

"Kat, sweetspark, you need to focus, ok? Can do you do that for us?" Sunny choked out. I tried to open my mouth to form words but it wouldn't move. It frustrated me. Was it really that bad?

Trying again it came out choked and I tasted a wet, warm, metallic substance that filled my mouth and spilled out of it. Suddenly another face appeared before mine, another robot. I couldn't even move. The twins were begging him to do something and he tried. I know he really tried. The look in his eyes was so clear to me.

Yet I was so calm and content. My twins were here next to me. But hearing their grief filled cries made me frown. The giant doc bot shook his head. He backed away and then the human versions of my twins appeared next to me.

Gently they cradled me against their warm bodies, mine felling almost frozen. I knew what was happening. I was dying, I only had moments left. And the twins knew that too. My poor, sweet, twins. They kept begging me and apologizing over and over. It bothered me. Alot. They needed to stop.

"Oh s-shut up, fre-freaken cry b-babies." They both managed to crack a smile at that. But it was small, almost as small and weak as my voice now sounded. But I had to keep talking, I could already feel myself slipping away.

"T-take my b-bracelets." I stuttered out. I had two bracelets, both made of an orange ribbon that matched my hair down to the shade shifts and matching fox charms. Making sure they complied I sighed, not much longer.

Slowly I faded into a welcoming blackness. With my last breath I whispered to my twins, suddenly afraid.

"Don't leave me…"I trailed off as my heart and lungs stopped working. I was dead and gone, all alone in the darkness.
