A/N: This is not a chapter I repeat this is not a chapter! This is an author's note explaining some of the things for the story's background and history, while not giving much of the story away. PLEASE READ VERY IMPORTANT, DO NOT SKIP OVER THIS FOLKS!

Dear readers,

First off, sorry this is not a chapter, but I want to explain to you some of the things for the story's history and background, while not giving much of the story away to you, so that you, the readers are not so confused on what happen in the end of chapter 8 or confuse on the story. Ok, one yes Skylar's mother, Melissa Murray, was a soldier who worked for the secret agent/military organization and base. She worked with the other soldiers and the general of this whole thing. But, she worked under/with Agent Fowler helping him out with the Autobots, before the new ones came. She fell in love and married a civilian police man, who works in the police force, which is Skylar's dad, John Murray. Her mother showed/told her father about everything in her life, including her work and the Autobots and the Decepticons. So, both of them know about both of the fractions and their war, but when Skylar's was born it was still like that, but never told Skylar about it.

Until, she found out herself with the other kids, that why she can't tell her dad she knows about them, because she thinks her dad does not know about them, but he does. The necklace is indeed an unmade blue energon crystal given by the Autobots as a thank you gift to her mother for helping them over the years. Her mother never took it off, until she died, not telling you how she died or explain what actually happen to cause her death even though I said it in the begin of the story. I will tell you it later on in the future chapters to come. She past it down to her daughter, Skylar Murray to wear and never take it off. So, from all this the only ones who knows about this all is the Autobots, the Decepticons, everyone working with the Autobots like the general, the agents, the soldiers, and Agent Fowler, and Skylar's dad. The kids, Skylar, and June do not know anything about all this, but will later on in the story in future chapters to come, when their ready to tell them all.

New bots from both fractions later to come in future chapters and chapters I just posted, will be told about all of this from the others on each side. That all of it, without giving away most of the story to you guys, hopes this clarifies you, confused readers of this story. Thanks again for the reviews, and as I said before chapter 9 will be posted up on here as soon as I can type it up and put it on here. Thanks for understanding hope this did not give much of the story away to you guys, and please R&R folks.

Sincerely your author/friend,
