{In a cave somewhere in Egypt}
"Ironhide, you need to get me to Optimus" Sam pleaded "I can revive him"
"Sorry punk, we have retreated from the battlefield. There is nothing I can do" Ironhide said grimly
"What do you mean there's nothing you can do?" Sam panicked and shouted, "You need to get me to Optimus alright?"
"The Decepticons have sent an entire army down here, we won't be able to get to you." Ironhide grunted "Even if we did, we won't be able to break through their encirclement. Just sit tight"
Sam looked at bumblebee "Bee there's gotta be something right?"
"Sorry man, I can't help you with that" Bumblebee shrugged
Ironhide turned to Jazz who was sitting in the corner. "Sit tight Jazz, we'll be coming for you"
Jazz nodded and started polishing his weapon
{Temporary Forward Command Tent}
[Boss, Reinforcements have arrived. Jarvis and I have stopped all the production lines and assigned all the bots to focus on creating more Titans]
"Good, tell everyone we will begin our assault right before the sun comes up" John nodded
They had managed to take Optimus's body before they retreated. The various governments have set up positions where their armies would attack. The UN had announced an emergency meeting beforehand. After a heated discussion, some decided to join the fight while others stood back and wanted to watch the development. There was an even split between the two factions.
After going around and asking, only the USS Iowa was still active while the others have been decommissioned and sent to museums. John sent someone to ask for the use of the old battleship in the upcoming battle. The United States government agreed to use it in the battle.
The reason for the use of a battleship was to rain down cover. While the jets engage in a dogfight overhead, their troops and tanks would break the formations of the weakened enemy after one or two barrages. After that, the fire would be mostly focused on attacking the Pyramid. As John's forces attack, the other armies would attack the Decepticons from all sides. With this much pressure, the Fallen would be forced into action. John himself would do his best to tie him down until Optimus gets revived and join the fight.
While the plan isn't exactly that great, no plans are perfect. Prior to this, John had given each army the proper communication equipment to hide their movements from Soundwave. While they fed information of them just being there curiously, their real movements would be hidden and when the attack comes about, the Decepticons would be caught off guard. Like Sun Tzu had said, All war is deception.
....
As the sun rose in the early morning, the troops have gathered and are ready to attack.
"Alright, boys, ladies." John got in front of them, standing on a tank "Now, I won't make any promises and we have lost the previous fight. But. If we lose this time it's game over for your friends and family back home. You won't be famous. But you will save humanity. We have this one last chance before we lose everything. You may die but you died for humanity's survival. Are you ready?"
"YES SIR!"
"What?" John shouted "I hope I don't have to repeat myself and redo that cringe-ass speech. ARE YOU READY?"
A smile could be seen on their faces "SIR YES SIR"
"BEGIN THE ATTACK!"
The horn sounded, causing their adrenaline to rise as they set off to face their enemies. Three more Titans have been finished and arrived on the battlefield. Just a few hours ago, America and the various other nations had attacked with ICBMS and Nukes, but none have been able to land a hit before being intercepted by Starscream or the Fallen.
BOOOM BOOOM BOOM
The sound of explosions sounded in the distance as the USS Iowa sent a barrage towards the enemy lines.
Sand and pieces of transformium flew everywhere. The Titans and Autobots led the charge and threw themselves at the Decepticons that had survived. Fighter Jets and Quinjets flew overhead, raining down lead in front of them, before engaging in an intense dog fight with the Decepticons above
BOOM BOOM
RAATAATTTAAA
Gunfire and explosions occurred everywhere as hundreds of soldiers pressed the Decepticons on all sides. Facing the sudden attack of the humans, the Decepticons were caught off guard as the human forces ripped through their ranks.
Megatron managed to reorganize his troops but not before losing a dozen men in the initial attack.
"Master, the humans have attacked again" Megatron growled "we don't have enough men to defend the star harvester"
As the Fallen was about to use his telekinetic powers again, a barrage from the USS Iowa reached the Pyramid.
BOOOM
"The humans have gotten some new toys" The Fallen teleported out of the attack, leaving a heavily injured Megatron behind
The Fallen glanced into the distance where the barrage came from and teleported over. Just as he was about to destroy the battleship, John arrived with his newly crafted halberd made from four months' worth of proto-adamantium.
"YOU SHALL NOT PASS" John shouted as he engaged in an intense battle with The Fallen
John dodged as the fallen stabbed at him with his stick. John then blocked the second attack and parried with his halberd before thrusting it at The Fallen's head. The fallen fought back and grabbed onto the shaft of John's Halberd, trying to break it. However, unfortunately for him, the Halberd was crafted using tons of Proto Adamantium, reaching a point where it's nearly unbreakable and indestructible. They fought for thirty minutes and at that point, John was slowly losing ground as his mech was artificial and not a pure body like The Fallen's. John had one arm ripped off and was barely holding on until Alice gave him news that made him extremely happy.
[Boss, they found Sam]
....
{Far away in the battlefield}
Boom Boom Boom
Raatatatta
Feewwwww
Missiles and tanks constantly attacked the Decepticons who are hidden behind the surrounding towns and pillars.
A titan appeared close to a Decepticon and ripped its neck off before continuing the fight. A titan next to him was hit and he immediately went forwards to protect his fellow titan.
"ZF-7256 are you okay?"
"I'm alright... BT-7274 watch out!"
A missile was suddenly launched in their direction. Titan ZF-7256 used a type of gravity field to stop the missile and sent it back.
"Thank you brother" BT-7274 said
"We push together" ZF-7256 readied its weapon and fired its weapon into a nearby Decepticon
....
"JAZZ WHERE ARE YOU WE NEED TO GET THE BOY" Sideswipe yelled into his communicator
"We're coming" Jax's voice came through "I'm directly under you, move"
Sideswipe immediately moved to the side and continued taking out Decepticons.
BOOOOOOMMM
The Sand next to him blew up, revealing the Twins, Bumblebee, and Jazz.
"Go quickly we'll hold them back" Ironhide ordered
"Arrgh" Jolt cried out as he was hit by multiple shots
Jazz immediately transformed and helped take Jolt behind cover "Bumblebee, go take them to Optimus. You two, come help" Jazz gestured towards the twins
"Aww man, how come we gotta do this type of shit" Mudflap complained
"Mudflap, we in the middle of a war" Skids pushed Mudflap
....
Vrooooom
Bumblebee brought Sam and the others to Optimus. But, halfway there they were intercepted by Shockwave and his driller.
Bumblebee transformed and tried to fight off Shockwave and buy time for Sam to get to Optimus. However, Bumblebee was terribly outmatched and was quickly injured in their fight.
"Yohoo" Jetfire came out of nowhere to help. With John's supply of transformium and Energon, Jetfire no longer had any problems with his body as Ratchet had helped fix him up. He felt younger and more energetic.
However, as they fought Shockwave, they became tied down by the driller. This allowed Shockwave to have a brief second to stop Sam.
Pew Pew Pew
Shockwave fired three shots.
"AAAAAHHHHHH" Sam cried out as he ran to Optimus. Sadly just as he arrived, a shot landed right behind him and sent him flying. He landed on his back and the rocks stabbed into his body. His spine became broken and he died shortly after.
"NOOO" Mikaela ran towards Sam
Just as Shockwave was about to rejoin the fight to kill Bumblebee and Jetfire, he spotted Ironhide and Ratchet. Being outmatched, Shockwave retreated just in the nick of time.
...
{Transformer Heaven}
Voices came to Sam out of nowhere. He looked up and saw the figures he saw in the tomb. The Primes.
"You have fought for Optimus, our last descendant, with courage and with sacrifice."
"With virtues of a leader, a leader worthy of our secrets"
"The Matrix of leadership is not found, but earned"
"Return now, with Optimus, merge the Matrix with his spark"
"It has and always has been your destiny"
(A/N: Honestly wanted to skip the part of Transformer Heaven)
...
"huff" Sam suddenly gasped for air and found Mikaela right in his face
"I love you" Same muttered as he caressed Mikaela's face
"Sam, It's a good thing that you're alive" Bumblebee interrupted "But we need you to revive Optimus now!"
The Decepticons ignored all the attacks from every direction and began focusing all their remaining forces in their direction.
Sam immediately grabbed the Matrix right next to him and stabbed the Matrix into Optimus's chest, reviving him.
....
[Boss...Sam somehow survived Shockwave's shot and he revived Optimus] Alice stammered with disbelief
John ignored Alice and immediately called Ironhide. [IRONHIDE, I CAN'T HOLD HIM DOWN ANY LONGER]
As soon as he said that, The cockpit armor became dented and pierced by his own halberd. He quickly disconnected and moved out of the way. The halberd pierced into the seat and left a shallow cut on his arm but otherwise, he is completely fine.
The Fallen saw that the matrix has been found, immediately roared and stole the halberd from his enemy's hands and pierced right through his chest. "DIE" As he watches the light in his enemy's eyes fade, he teleported over to Optimus and stole the matrix.
He threw the matrix into the sun harvester and waited for its charging sequence.
{Main battlefield}
"UGGGHH" Optimus groaned
"OPTIMUS GET UP" Sam yelled "GET UP. YOU NEED TO GET UP OPTIMUS"
"Oh no," Jetfire looked at the poor state of Optimus who was just revived.
Suddenly, a giant crate fell from the sky containing blue energy cores in the shape of batteries and hundreds of flight tech made up of transformium.
Ratchet immediately knew what those were as John had told him about it in case anything goes wrong.
"Jolt, electrify" Ratchet ordered "We need to transfer the Energon into him"
...
Optimus soon gained his flight tech but The Fallen had already destroyed the nearby forces around the pyramid and the sun harvester was just about to be fired. Knowing all of this, Optimus rushed over at the highest speed possible and immediately destroyed the sun harvester, causing it to implode.
"NOOOO" Megatron cried out
John also rushed over after managing to boot up his systems and get the halberd out of his chest. Together, John and Optimus teamed up and tore apart The Fallen. It was completely one-sided. Megatron retreated with his remaining forces after finding out that the battle was lost.
"DIE" John stabbed his halberd into the Fallen and ripped him into two.
As Optimus turned around and stood on top of the sphynx, signifying the end of the battle. John used his remaining strength to "borrow" the Matrix. It flew through the hole on his chest and landed right on John's lap as he felt a massive headache.
"Alice begin tallying our losses" John groaned and quickly left the battlefield under the gaze of Optimus.
John knew Optimus found out, but he himself needed to do some research about it first.

-------------------------------------
Finally End of ROTF, Ik the ending could've been extended a bit more but I don't have the brain cells to do it. I spent it all on the SAT as I wrote this and I spent three hours writing all this(Paused for a day and started writing again). But a total of around 2100 words in this chapter.
Initially was about 1400 words and going to be published on Tuesday, but decided it lacked too many details and seemed rushed so I took more time to go over it and add more details in between.
Also, only one chapter this week. I need time to think of what to do next.
