Chapter 1

a change in form

Knockout lingered on the human database some of the other decepticons put together.

He had made a serum, by Megatrons request that would enable the decepticons a greater chance at winning the war. "Ou this is boring, I'm going out for a ride."
Before knockout could go anywhere star-scream walked in.
"Where do you think you are going."
"Out for a drive, do you have a problem with that."
"Yes I do have a problem with that. As second in command I am to make sure every con is doing their job." Star-scream said holding his hand up to himself."
"What do you expect me to do, sit here all day?" Knock-out said annoyed.
"YES. Now get back to work, Lord Megatron expects a test subject by the end of the day." Knock-out growled and turned back to the computer. He stood at the computer for hours looking for the perfect human for his test.
"Balkrie, Amanda." Knock-out shook his head. "I hate how humans word things. "Amanda Balkrie, 16. 37569, W. Silver-tip, Rd, Spokane Washington." He moved to her picture. "Well she seems in good health, and stable enough to live through the experiment, good enough for me."

Knockout walked into the main rig of the ship with a smirk on his face."Lord Megatron, I found it."
"Found what, Knockout." Megatron said with a growl.
"The test subject for the. uh.. test."
"Good. You have.. proved well, this time. Hopefully this will make up for the relic you had lost."
"Thank you Lord Megatron." Knock out turned to leave but was stopped.
"Knock out... Have Sound-wave accompany you, we wouldn't want you to lose this too."
"Wha- of-of course, what a good idea." Knockout turned and grumbled to himself.

Knockout left the main rig to find sound-wave already at the space bridge waiting for his command.
"Set these coordinates, we must quiet since we will be near a more...populated area." He said rounding his wrist
Sound-wave turned around and fiddled with the keyboard, soon after, a swirling green light appeared and both walked through.

As knock-out walked out of the Space bridge, Sound-wave pointed forward. Knockout look where Sound-waves finger pointed and his shoulders fell.
"Oh Scrap." Both stood before a neighborhood, that was finely lit up with lamp posts and house lights. Sound-wave turned and looked at Knock-out.
"Alright I will go in and find the house, you stay in the skies. When I give the signal, you swoop in and take it, ok. I will honk once for the signal, make no mistakes. Or my head will be given to megatron on a silver platter." Knock-out held his neck just thinking about it.
Knock-out transformed and roamed the neighborhood in search of the persons house. He soon arrived at his destination and gave the signal for sound-wave to come in and do his part


Amanda rested in her bed waiting for her parents to come say goodnight. She laid there letting her mind wander in absence. She was awoken from her trance with a slight knock at her door. "Come in."
"You ready for bed?" her mother said peeking her head around the door.
"Ya."
Her mother chuckled. "Good, have a good night, and sleep well."
"You too." Her mother left, leaving only blackness to surround Amanda.
Just then she heard a honk outside her window and decided to check it out. Amanda Pulled back her curtains, and opened her blinds, only to see a Black jet coming straight for her. What seemed like flexible arms came out of the jet and reached towards her and broke her window. The arms lached around her and pulled her away. "AAAAAAHHHHHH! MMMOOOOMMMM, DDDDAAAAADDDD." Her parents rushed in only to see her being carried away by the Jet.
"AMANDA! NNNOOO." A red car rushed past their house and followed the jet.


Amanda screamed and whelped all down the neighborhood while the jet carried her through the air like a pinnate. "LET ME GO!" She hit and scraped at the metal prons that were holding her, she must have hit a pressure point because they opened up and let her fall. Amanda hadn't notices how far she was from the ground when she fell, and wisped through the clouds, before she could go any further the metal prons took hold of her again. "Sound-wave, get down here the portal is about to open." A voice yelled. The jet swooped down and flew through a green swirling light. Somehow the Pron holding Amanda must have let go of her accidentally during the journey through because she flew through the portal and smacked onto the ground knocking herself out.


Opening her eyes Amanda found herself in a small glass and metal tube dangling from the ceiling. She banged against the glass in hope she could break it and get out. "I wouldn't do that if I were you," A metal being walked in reading something. "Not like you could break it or anything, but if you were to," He stared at her and the ground. "you would fall to your death."
"Let me out, you-you whatever you are." the being smirked.
"Highly advanced Cybertronian, if you must know."
"Well look who's high and mighty on themselves, just in curiosity are all cybertronians narcissistic."
"Excuse me. Why does Megatron want to even work with fleshies anyway, your all so ugh."
"Look who's talking, if I would of know beings like you lived here I would have taken a ticket to the moon."
"And how would you know were from earth?"
"Your'e the car."
"How do you know that."
"I'm not blind you know, I can recognize a similar car pattern, Duh." The red being turned to the screen and growled. Amanda stayed in the glass tube all day, trying to entertain herself, although it was a little hard since the tube barley fit her into it.


Hours later Amanda awoke strapped to a metal berth. She heard talking in the other room and tried to listen in though some of it was blurred.
"Star-scream tells me you... I trust you found a good one." A deep voice said.
"Yes... I have studied her for a day... seems healthy and stable enough to live through the procedure."
Amanda squeaked at what she heard.
"Ah well I believe my test subject is awake."Amanda watched two huge metal beings walk into the room. One was the red being from yesterday and the other was a new one, he was larger and grey with piercing red eyes that could bring fear into any heart. "I'm glad you're awake." The red one said with a smirk.

"You did well Knock-out, let us hope she survives the experiment. I wouldn't want you to fail me."
"Of course, Lord Megatron. When will you want me to start."
"Now. I expect results soon." Megatron walked out.
Amanda squirmed let out a small tear."What- a-are you go-going to do with me?"
"Why what happened to you being brave?" Knockout let out a slight laugh.
"I-I. What are you going to do with me?" she said mustering up courage.
"Nothing much, just going to test a substance on you. And if my calculations are right you should be transformed into one of us."
"If this how all of you are like then I'd rather stay human."
"You would rather be a flesh-bag instead than a advanced metal machine."
"Hey my friends are those flesh-bags." Amanda said with a scowl. Knock-out turned around and faced Amanda holding a large filled syringe in hand.
"This won't hurt a bit."
Amanda tried to squirm away. "No needles, please no needles. Can't you knock me out before you poke me with that?"
"No, I need to make sure all your vitals are functioning correctly." Knock-out moved in and pushed the needle through her arm, until he was sure it reached her bloodstream. Amanda cried and let tears stream down her face, feeling the pain of a needle meant for a giant. She became unconscious and let herself fall into a deep sleep.


Amanda awoke to loud ruckus in the hallway and walked out to see what was happening. "That was one heck of a dream." Walking into the hallway Amanda froze in horror. There stood two bots fighting over who knows what. But Amanda was afraid because they no more seemed like giants, instead she had to be at least two inches shorter than the bots. Amanda stared at her hands and stumbled back. Instead of her usual human hands, there were long, thin and sharp fingers.

"Lord Megatron, I have come to tell you the experiment worked." Knock-out and Megatron walked down the hall. "Before I believe you I must see for myself. Both looked up and stared. Knockout rushed to Amanda's side.
"See Lord Megatron what did I tell you she's magnificent."
"You did a fine job knock-out, she will be a fine asset to our team."
"Uh, excuse me who said I was going to join your group, and what the heck happened to me!" Amanda said waving her hands.
Megatron scowled. "I will inform you that this is my ship and whoever is on it must obey me."
"No, no, no, no you get this straight," Amanda said walking up to megatron.
"this may be your ship but, it's my life, in no way shape or form will you control it or tell me what to do." She said pointing a deadly finger at him. Megatron deepened his scowl. "Knock-out tell her how my ship is run, I expect to come back to a more respectful being, or your experiment will be sent to the scrapyard...in pieces." Megatron said holding Amanda's chin with his finger. He walked away in rage.

Knock-out grabbed her arm and pulled her away. "You might want to get accustomed to your body. He led her to a mirror and faced her towards it. Amanda stood in shock, she was metal, every ounce of flesh she had was covered in a layer of black and green metal. It looked as if her body was covered in black spikes that looked like thorns. Three on each arm, one on her leg, Three on her feet, one including on her heel. She had two double swords on each side of her waist, she pulled them out and observed them, putting them back in, she stared at her face covered in metal designs. "Now...Amanda we will need to change your name, this ship doesn't need a cybertronian with a human name. Wouldn't want the autobots knowing what we did."
"Who are the autobots?"
"No one you are to be concerned with, now what shall we change your name to."
Amanda stared at her body again. "ThornRush, my name will be ThornRush."
"Good choice." Knock-out grabbed her arm again and pulled her away."now to show you how to work around this place."
