I don't really plan on starting this story quite yet but I thought I'd put the opening out there and see what I get back in the way of reviews, I'll probably put chapters up really randomly... then again, I kinda already do that... ^_^

File Revision:

Classification: Top Secret; Sector Seven Clearance Or Higher

Operation Designation: Project Mockingbird

Project Leader/Head Scientist: Drake, Bartholomew (Deceased); Drake, Abigail

Subjects: Drake, Abigail; Johnson, Tony (Deceased); Nightingale, Lyre

Funding: Government Funding

Objective: Creation of artificial N.B.E. units to be controlled by Military Personnel (Currently only civilian subjects involved) through neurological links for the purpose of defending against possible attack by Decepticons of the same make as N.B.E.1 (Designation: Megatron). Possible diplomatic function.

Secondary Objective: Creation of a reversed process in which a Cybertronian mind is placed in a vacant human body via neurological link in the hopes of causing stronger loyalties to the human race. Possible Militaristic function.

Complications: Johnson declared brain-dead after the destruction of his N.B.E. form while he was still Linked-In. Drake, the Sr., flat lined after being in a coma for 68 hours following the attack on their base of operations, could not be revived. Nightingale suffering from loss of control of her legs due to head injury received during the same attack that caused the deaths of Drake Sr. and Johnson, confined to wheelchair, emotional instability increased. Drake, the Jr., suffering from emotional dependency on Nightingale. Nightingale and Drake now acquainted with Witwicky and the Autobots though they still protect the secret of the Project.

The file closed with a snap and a rather self-satisfied looking man leaned back in his seat, his eyes turned to a bird-like robot that was perched on the back of the chair across from his desk. "I think Lord Megatron will want to be made aware of this information, I believe he will find it… most enlightening." He chuckled.

It was not a pleasant sound.
