Night Side of Eden
Disclaimer: This was an idea inspired by a piece of art on Deviantart by kimbo-demonica. Well, the artwork was grim and delightfully wicked, so it brought on a new idea. Check it out if you'd like. It's called "Resurrection". This will be shorter than usual. I had no real idea where this one could go. It was just a goofy little smutfest I had and twisted with dark to it as well. I was also inspired to write this after watching the Armada series and Energon episode featuring Starscream reborn. I decided to have a little more...grim goodness in this. The Starscream in here is similar to the Energon one, but with a little touch of my own twisted imagination. So yeah...
Ahh, oh why did they have to violate such a cool Starscream? He sucks in Energon, but he was sooo awesome in Armada. Eh, this was a short and quick idea. I was going to work on a Silent Hill fic-and I still will-but I wanted to get this idea down quickly before my mind fizzled. (Yes, sick mind, I know...Heheh). Not really my best, and quick too. Well, I'll leave that to you to decide.
"Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others...for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received."

Part Three
Alexis's thoughts ran rampant as she rushed to make it back to the beach. The meeting had taken a lot longer than she would have thought, and she hoped that Starscream would not be too upset with her for being late in their meeting.
She spotted Starscream, sitting at the ocean's edge, looking out to sea. His optics brightened when he saw her car pull up and he rose immediately. He watched her climb out of the car and brush herself off. She must have eaten something on the way back, he assumed.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to take so long." she panted, breathless from running. "Damn meeting took longer than it should have."
Starscream smiled, shaking his head. "No need to apologize, Alexis." he told her, "There's nothing more for me to do except wait."
Alexis went to make herself comfortable on the warm sand and Starscream sat down beside her. She looked up at him.
"So, where should I begin ... ?" she asked.
Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen
Alexis had started to explain it all to Starscream and he took in every word she said. Alexis told him about his betrayal to the Decepticons and his joining of the Autobots. He was surprised to hear all of this, seeing since he had no idea what it all meant.
But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melted into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy
Alexis leaned back, relaxing as she continued the conversation. She began to talk about Starscream's death and the toll it had taken on her. She told him about her joining the government and becoming a representative. All the while she spoke, Starscream also kept a watchful eye around him, making sure no one would try and come to attack. He did not want a single moment's interruption with this woman who wanted to help him.
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Starscream had drank in every single word. Each new piece of information surprised him with each sentence. He enjoyed hearing all she had to tell him, but mostly, he loved having her near. It was something difficult to explain, but he felt he had to be near her. He had no one else in the world anymore.
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
Several seagulls had taken to perching on Starscream's shoulders. He stared at them angrily and tried to shoo them away. The end resulted in Alexis giggling at such a sight. It was just so funny that small creatures such as these did not fear him. She slowly began to relax around him now, seeing him as not a big enemy.
Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling
During the time they spent together, Starscream and Alexis both observed small sea life within the ocean's edge. Alexis tried to recap about how important it was to preserve the life on earth and how vital the Energon supply was to them. He waited for her to tell him that it belonged to no one else but theirs, but she did not. She merely told him that they'd share with whoever needed it.
But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe
While all of this was going on, Starscream had begun to question his methods he was taught by Alpha Q. Could they have been wrong? Alexis seemed so kind and gentle, and slowly, his memory of her began to return. She could not be the evil person Alpha Q had told him about.
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Alexis smiled up at Starscream, wading into the ocean water. It felt so cool and nice against her skin; it had started to sweat and the ocean water was just the ticket to get rid of that. Starscream watched her at a distance, his fascination showing in his optics.
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
The sun itself slowly started to set. Small lights lit up in the sky; satellites that passed over earth every once in a while. Starscream watched them with a wary eye.
And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see
Starscream looked down with a smile, seeing Alexis finally summoning up the courage to sit beside him. He tried to keep his spark from racing like mad. Being this close to someone was something he was really not used to. But she showed no fear in his presence and that relaxed him as well.
I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

Meanwhile, within Unicron's head, Alpha Q watched Starscream's entire date with the girl through a small screen. They were not too pleased at all.
"What's this?" the fierce head raged, "What is he doing?"
The pink head appeared, giggling wildly at this new revelation. "Aww, it would seem that he's taken a fancy to the girl. His memory must be coming back after all."
The green head with the crown was now present. "This could interrupt our plans." he murmured, growling in his words. "She should be terminated."
The pink head. "Oh, wait! I have a better idea!"
The orange head. "And what could YOU possibly suggest?" he bellowed.
"Well, Alexis, this girl, could prove to be a useful asset to us!" the pink head exclaimed. "She represents earth itself! Perhaps we could ... use her ... "
The green head seemed to know what he meant and he chuckled softly. "Of course, what a plan you pose my friend."
"It won't work!" the orange head growled angrily, "It's never been done for 2 million years now!"
"It's work, I assure you." the green head said, calmly. "Starscream will just bring her to us ... Or we can simply ... go to her ... "
O
Note-Slowly it will get interesting. Despite the fact I plan to merely make this a short one, it will. The song here is "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis. A new R&B song I heard on the radio while at work and even though it's not my tastes, it was a fitting song.
