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 27. 45,311 words written, three days left and 4,569 words to go. There is no way in hell that this story will be completed in the remaining time, not unless I pull a "rocks fall; everybody dies". But I will hit the needed wordcount.
All joking aside, I will avoid the gatuitous gaming reboot method of dealing with the lack of completion, and just post my notes for the remaining chapters and the epilogue for those folks who are reading here, sort of like a sneak preview. Also, it will mean that I can have my last two words be "The" and "End", just like I wanted. Okay, so it's cheating a bit, but it means that I will have my notes posted somewhere, just in case something happens to my saved copies.
And the normal wordcounter will be replaced as soon as languageisavirus.com is back up again. I can't say that I particularly care for the one's provided by NaNo. Since their "live" they're constantly updating, but somehow, the wordcount doesn't seem to keep up to date (hence why it says I've only written 44,152 words at the time of this posting).
Edit: And the site is back up. Yeah for a normal word counter!
45311 / 50000 words. 91% done!
Chapter 18
