Title: The Devil You Know
Series: G1 universe, focusing on Original characters
Rating: R
Summary: In the early days of the civil war on Cybertron, Sentinel Prime authorized several refugee vessels to take Neutrals away from the planet in hopes that they could start peaceful colonies where they would be safe. Many of these refugees were never heard from again; lost to us through time and distance. But history does record the fate of one of the vessels. The Stormchaser was three orns away from its destination when it was shot down by Decepticons in an act of cowardice and deceit. There were no survivors. That is what history tells us. But in this case, history is wrong.
Author's Note: Day 21 and I couldn't be happier. This has ended up being a much longer chapter than I had intended ... mainly because I hadn't planned on that makeout scene at the the beginning. Yeah, it was a tad unexpected. I figure that in the final draft this chapter may be split into two. We'll see.
And I won't complain about the word count, because I am now two days ahead of schedule. Yes, I'm boasting, but I think I have the right. Now if you'll excuse me, I will go make a sacrifice to Karma so that she won't strike me down for my arrogance.
Also, I think I will have to try my hand at drawing these guys some time. It'll probably be no better than stick figures, but at least it will give me a visual reminder of colour schemes and alt modes. I think that I may have screwed up once or twice, mixing up colours and such. But, I figure that's what editing is for.
