Hello! Most of you who are reading this will be familiar with A Series of Awkward Adventures and War Machine, but just in case you aren't: first off, welcome! And secondly, you'll probably still be able to read this without brushing up on the goings on in the two fics mentioned above, so no worries there! (Although I don't know why you'd want to read this without having read the other two but never mind!) So yeah, just a few more things and then I'll let you get on with reading the chapter. Firstly, this is IN NO WAY WHATSOEVER related to the happenings within theAwkward Adventures one-shots or anything that's happened in War Machine, this is a completely separate thing that is not supposed to be taken seriously at all. It's just something I wanted to do for a bit of fun really, since a friend of mine decided to point out that Lunar-Song reminded her of Rapunzel, since her 'hair' glows when she sings. Another thing I should tell you is that, since this is heavily based on Disney's Tangled, there may be quite a few quotes that have been copied word for word, because I liked them so much I didn't want to change them. So yeah, I think that's all from me, I hope you enjoy it!
My name is Ravenstrike, and this… Is the story of how I died.
Don't worry though! This is actually quite a funny story. It isn't even mine, to tell you the truth. This is the story of a girl named Lunar-Song. And it starts, well, it starts where all of our stories do: within the AllSpark.
You see, legend tells that many, many years ago, a shard of the AllSpark broke off, and ended up embedded into the ground in a remote forest. Once there, it somehow grew into a beautiful crystal flower, with many strange properties. One such property was that it had the ability to heal the sick and injured.
Ages – no, wait, I'd better tell you about that old woman first. Right, you might want to remember the name 'Sunstar', because she's gonna be important. Anyway, ages passed, and a kingdom by the name of Iacon grew on a nearby island. This kingdom was ruled by a beloved king and queen, and the queen was soon to have a baby. But she fell ill, terribly, terribly ill.
She didn't have long left; and, of course, neither did the baby. So the people of Iacon all set off in search of… well, a miracle, I suppose. Or, in other words, the magical crystal flower.
Now this is where Sunstar comes in.
Sunstar had been hoarding the flower's magic and using it to keep herself young for centuries! All she had to do was sing a simple incantation, and the flower would glow white as the magic began to work on her. Creepy, right? Well, I think so.
Sunstar tried to keep the flower from the kingdom, but they eventually stumbled upon its hiding place. The flower's magic healed the queen, and she soon gave birth to a healthy baby girl; a princess with dazzlingly bright white hair. Just in case you didn't catch on just yet, here's a hint: the princess is Lunar-Song.
To celebrate what could only be called a miracle, the king and queen launched a flying lantern into the sky. And just for that moment, everything was perfect.
But that moment soon ended.
Sunstar had found out that the young princess' hair contained the magical qualities of the flower that had been used to save the queen, and she snuck into the castle one night to take a lock of it.
However, she hadn't counted on the hair losing its magic as soon as it was cut. Desperate to keep her youth, she did the only other thing she could think of: she stole the baby. Quick as the wind, both Sunstar and Lunar-Song were gone, leaving Iacon in distress.
The entire kingdom searched and searched, but they never found the princess. That's because, deep within a forest, in a hidden tower, Sunstar raised the child as if she were her own. The old woman had found her new magic flower, and this time, she was determined to keep it hidden.
But the tower's walls, as imposing as they were, couldn't hide everything from curious little Lunar-Song. Each year, on the princess' birthday, the kingdom released thousands upon thousands of lanterns into the sky, in the hopes that one day their lost princess would return to them…
Alrighty, so, that's just a short one to get the ball rolling, but I hope you liked it anyway!
Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers, or Disney's Tangled, nor any of the characters I use in this story, apart from Ravenstrike, Lunar-Song and Sunstar.
P.S - and just to warn you about the characters in future chapters, factions mean absolutely NOTHING in this story (please remember that this is all a big joke brought about by a silly coincidence and therefore it should not be taken seriously at all, thank you!)
