If company A has just started the transfer, but not yet filed the petition with the Govt., please inform them immediately, as they will be spending thousands of dollars on your transfer as an investment in you. Hopefully this will go in your favor and they may not blacklist you. Good Luck.

Can your employer/attorney file a motion to reopen your extension case? Check with your attorney on the next steps for legal stay in US, since your H1b is denied. If your I-94 is still valid, you may be able to file another extension or transfer too. Good Luck.

Not all details are available in your comment. Is your I-94 current? Have you started working with employer B? Do you have paystubs with employer B? You can request employer B to not withdraw your petition, until you get approval from employer C. Better to consult an attorney on this. Good Luck.

If you change your job after December, do ask your new employer to process h4 too along with your transfer petition. As per law, your previous employer will revoke your H1b since you are not working with him anymore, which will automatically lead to H4 denial, which is based on your current H1b extension approval.

Your H1b has to be current, based on which you can get a visa to come to US back again. Contact your current employer, or new employer who can file your H1b petition cap exempt. Make sure you have enough validity in your passport (or get a new passport).

Since you are going to join only on approval, I think you should be good.
