summary: in which a two rich girls die and are reborn as sparklings
or
Stella Boirdir grew up as the youngest daughter of the rich and beautiful Edwin and Anastasia Boirdir. The complete opposite as her perfect elder sister, Gwendolyn, and handsome brother, Jonathan, Stella longs for the wild life with her on-off bad boy boyfriend, Danny
But when her home is invaded and it's found that Danny and his "gang" are dealing with a power unknown through the cosmos, Stella and her twin sister, Maria, are reborn as two sparklings, one the daughter of the great Optimus Prime and the other, the adopted child of Jazz.
Chapter One: Estelle Grace Boirdir and Maria Annette Boirdir
"Mama said you'd be here." Estelle Boirdir stopped with her cigarette, the smoke emanating from the full pink lips and glanced over at the carbon copy of herself. Maria. Both girls took glance at each other. While each had long golden hair and bright eyes, Maria dressed in light pink and white flats and Estelle, or Stella, dressed in black and blood red and wore makeup as dark as her clothes.
They were too different.
"Shit," Stella laughed, "She found my smoking spot? Damn." She blew out smoke in Maria's face and Maria flinched. "Sorry." Stella said in a mocking voice.
"No, you aren't." Maria said loudly, tears shining in her eyes, "You got a call from Danny." She held up the naked silver phone that belonged to Stella and angrily held it back. It was nice being two inches taller than her twin.
Anger flashed in Stella's eyes. "What did he say?" She asked in a demanding tone.
"When do you plan on leaving with your crack shot boyfriend?" Maria spat out, spitting on the ground near Stella's toes. "Soon? Too soon?"
"Shut up." Stella dropped the cigarette, crushing it under her boots and snatched the phone away. Two inches didn't really help when you were wearing flats and your twin was wearing dangerously high heels. Stella opened the phone and softened at her screen saver: a picture of her dark and handsome boyfriend.
"It'll kill Mama. Daddy won't stop until he drags you home." Maria replied. "He'll lock you in your room and won't let you leave. I won't help you. Neither will Jon or Gwenny."
Stella frowned, looking away. Maria was right, of course. Always the logical sister, it made sense for her to tell the truth to Stella. Their father would be embarrassed that his daughter would disappear with Danny and he wouldn't stop trying to find her and lock her away for good, until she turned eighteen.
Stella felt sick.
"Just talk with Mama and Daddy." Maria cooed softly, putting a hand on Stella's shoulder. "Tell them you feel trapped here. They won't hesitate to send you on a vacation. France with Grandmama, Switzerland with Auntie Jean, maybe even Guam with Uncle Darren and Aunt Lyn!"
Stella shoved her away. "I want to be normal!" She hissed. "I want normal school and a nice boyfriend who loves me and I want to be normal, dammit! I deserve it!"
"Yeah." Maria muttered. "You deserve it."
Maria stepped away from her with a sigh and began to think how she could convince Stella to stay when there came a small jingle. Her text tone. She wrinkled her nose and grabbed her pink I-Phone, looking at the message.

"Why's Danny at the house?" Stella slowly looked up at her twin in shock at the statement.
"He's not." Stella replied.
Slow realization hit both the girls as there came a large, explosive BOOM in the direction of their mansion. Maria's eyes widened and Stella's mouth dropped.
"You bitch." Maria whispered. Then she started sprinting towards house, ducking through trees and bushes until she came to the edge of the forest where a visible bomb had been planted on the house. She heard Stella come up behind her in shock.
"Woah." Stella whispered.
"Mama." Maria choked up with tears and sprinted towards the hole in the side of the house. She ducked in and found herself in her father's office where her father was sprawled across the floor, moaning in pain. His leg had been blown apart and scattered apart the office and blood was coming out his body faster and faster.
"Daddy? Dad. Dad." Maria dropped next to him. Heavy breathing came from Edwin Boirdir and he spoke in a choked voice.
"My daughter. My moon." Maria's tears rolled onto his burned face. "I adore you and your sister. Remem-" He was cut off by choking and then, he laid still.
"Dad?" Stella whispered from the entrance of the hole.
Maria sobbed and sprinted for the door. Their maids and butlers were scattered across the floor, dead by bullets or explosions. She ran for the stairs. The stairs looked mostly untouched though the beautifully sculpted railing had been torn apart and looked crushed by feet.
Sprinting up the stairs, she found Gwendolyn at the top, dead. 19 year old Gwen had been the heir to their father's weapons company. She was brilliant and kind and looked like their father with neatly combed light brown hair and studious brown eyes. She lay dead, now, still in her silky pajama bottoms and loose white tank top. It looked like she was shot in the chest three times.
"Oh god." Stella whispered, horrified. She was a step behind Maria and she was horrified. How could her family members be dead? She never wanted this. Danny...she felt her stomach gurgle. He talked about blowing up the mansion but she thought he was kidding.
He wasn't.
Thankfully their 17 year old brother, a year older then them, was gone. He was visiting Auntie Jean in Switzerland. He wouldn't be back for another three weeks.
The two girls were pulled away from their horrified thoughts when they heard a scream from their mother's painting room. The two glanced at each other, terrible thoughts filling their minds before they sprinted for the large, colorful room.
Both girls stopped inside the doorway where they saw Danny and two strange metallic creatures ripping out their mother's heart from her chest, pale face turned red by her blood.
"Mommy!" The high pitched cry came from Stella, tears ruining her makeup and causing black eyeliner to run down her cheeks. Danny swung around, along with two of his men and one of the metal men.
The metal man looked to be six feet tall with glowing gold eyes and gold and grey armor over the initial silver body. His sharp, almost human-like claws, turned into two swords, going up to his elbows, and he started towards Stella and Maria.
"Are you Maria Annette Boirdir and Estelle Grace Boirdir? Twin daughters of Edwin and Anastasia Boirdir?" The metal man's voice didn't seem robotic at all. It was clear and sharp and cruel.
"Who's asking?" Maria asked in a moment of clear bravery.
The metal man smirked with his silvery, strange lips. "My name is Echoslice. I am under the great Quintessa, creators of all life. I am here to hunt and destroy. Are you the twin girls, yes or no?"
"You son of a bitch." Stella looked at Danny, eyes wide. "What did you do?"
"You're safe, doll." Danny tried to say. "He won't hurt you, I swear."
"Negative." Echoslice replied, watching Maria with intelligent...eyes? "The heir of Alexei Boirdir must die." Stella and Maria looked at each other, confused. Alexei Boirdir? Their grandfather? He died last year in a car accident, leaving the estate in Scotland to Maria and Stella, his favorite grandkids, but there was nothing special about him.
"How do you know Grandpa Alexei?" Maria demanded. Echoslice took another step forward, a few feet away now and kept his eyes on her.
"In 1956, your grandfather stumbled upon one of the greatest warriors of my race: Lord Megatron. Megaton escaped Earth but not without leaving the thing he came to earth for. The Shard. Your grandfather split the Shard into four pieces and grave them to you two, your sister and your brother." He held up two necklaces, Gwen and Jon's parts, and the two girls grabbed their own, fear on their faces.
"Are you done, Echo?" The second metallic creature spoke. It was a female, obviously, with golden eyes and dark red armor. She looked over in disgust at the two girls, transformed her arm into what looked like a cannon and shot Danny in the head, killing him instantly. She then shot the two gang members and turned back to the girls, her cannon arm powering up.
"Sharpcross." Echoslice said calmly. "Calm down. We simply need the Shard, you understand, of course?"
"We don't have our necklaces." Stella spat. "I threw mine in the ocean and Maria buried hers." Echoslice stopped, a step from them and eyed their necks before looking up with burning, angry eyes.
"Why?" Echoslice hissed.
"To commemorate Grandpapa." Maria hissed.
"Well then." Echoslice said. "Any last words?" The girls stood side by side, with the same look in their eyes and said in unision:
"Burn in hell, motherfucker!"
With that, Echoslice took his arm swords and stabbed them both in the heart, ending their lives.
