Title: Spiralling Out of Control
Theme Set: Epsilon (another 1sentence set)
Disclaimer: Rich and powerful people own Transformers and as I am neither rich nor powerful…
Warning: This set contains more "naughty" sentences than the others… I blame ajremix's story, "Come Down Breathless"… it won't get out of my head…;
A/N: Following the tradition of treat others when one celebrates something (share the joy and all that)… getting this up now is my treat to those who like this story for I will soon be celebrating my departure from teenagehood. Can't post this then because I have exams on that day and the days before and after… Not exactly the best time to party… still, I hope you guys enjoy.
--Start--
#01 – Motion
Watching Flight dance, Sandstorm wondered how anyone could think the jet was anything but graceful.
#02 – Cool
Slipping into the berth, Fireflight drew the fevered form of the Wrecker into his much cooler embrace even as curses echoed from the washracks about the bot who'd changed the settings to freezing.
#03 – Young
"Ah, young love," sighed Kup as the orange triplechanger excused himself from the group to show the red jet his latest captures, then proceeded to regale his remaining audience with stories of past romances.
#04 – Last
As much as he disliked pacing in front of the medbay doors, Fireflight was willing to wear a groove a mile deep if it meant this wouldn't be the last time.
#05 – Wrong
Vaguely Flight knew he ought to clean up the energon spill – the life-giving fluid rapidly spreading from his dropped cube - but the cold feeling that had lanced his Spark now gripped his entire self and the Aerial knew, just knew, something was wrong.
#06 – Gentle
Most would not believe that Sandstorm was capable of such tenderness – then again, the general populace wouldn't think Fireflight could get so rough either.
#07 – One
"One life, one love, now and for always."
#08 – Thousand -
Slowly, under loving fingers they took form - a flock of a thousand origami cranes to bring a certain Wrecker home.
#09 – King
"King me," Sandstorm declared as he moved his piece to Flight's end of the board – the Aerial leaned over the table to plant a kiss on the top of the Wrecker's helm.
#10 – Learn
The triplechanger didn't do nice but it looked like he would have to learn –and fast- otherwise he'd be subject to Flight's hurt expression or worse, be the cause of it.
#11 – Blur
Sometimes, he couldn't quite tell when he left off and his lover began.
#12 – Wait -
"Love understands and therefore waits" – In the medbay, Sandstorm lay patiently as Fireflight went to each of his teammates' berths before heading to the Wrecker's.
#13 – Change
The change in the orange triplechanger's style –going after Flight when he normally chased after a much different type of bot – worried his teammates; the reason why troubled them even more.
#14 – Command
They were both soldiers and while 'it wasn't for them to question why, but to do or die', neither could help muttering darkly upon receiving orders in the middle of their exploratory trip.
#15 – Hold
He knew it was futile before he even tried wriggling out of the Aerial's berth – the jet had a hold on him that couldn't be broken and he didn't mean the hand gripping his wing.
#16 – Need
"Physically he's fine," Topspin reported, "he's just got a bad case of Fireflight Withdrawal."
#17 – Vision
The Aerial was stumbling around blind after a couple of flash bombs detonated right in front of him when he felt a cool strip of metal being placed on his faceplate - he warily onlined his optics to a world tinted crimson and his lover's concerned expression.
#18 – Attention
Fireflight always had the Wrecker's undivided attention whenever they were together.
#19 – Soul
Sandstorm was of the firm belief that the jet's Spark was as warm and beautiful as a star – funnily enough, the Aerial thought the same of triplechanger's.
#20 – Picture
Air Raid once snuck into Flight's room to get a little blackmail material on the two and came away with a capture of the Wrecker singing softly to the little red jet recharging in his lap – the capture is currently beside the one of a drunken Silverbolt singing opera in his family album.
#21 – Fool
"Fool me once shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me" – Flight was willing to give a second chance.
#22 – Mad
Sandstorm knew logically that he had no real reason to be upset with Flight for being careless –it was the way the jet was after all - but he knew how easy it was to deactivate an unaware 'bot and he couldn't bear the thought of losing the Aerial in such a manner (or in any way actually).
#23 – Child -
'Dive watched as a sandy-haired boy stood protectively between his little red-haired classmate and an irritated Harrier and wondered if he was just imagining the similarities.
#24 – Now
Yesterday was gone forever and tomorrow unlikely to be theirs, but they did have now and it was enough – it had to be.
#25 – Shadow
'Someone really ought to tell them', the Red Alert thought as he watched the couple on screen, 'that dark corner isn't much of a hiding spot and the cameras did pick up audio', but decided it wouldn't do to interrupt.
#26 – Goodbye
It was getting harder to be separated from his lover - the feeling of being incomplete would gnaw at him until they were together again.
#27 – Hide
"You never saw me," Sandstorm told his lounging teammates as he ran past them and out of the rec room but when Flight entered, frowning in concern, the Wreckers pointed as one, the way the orange triple' went.
#28 – Fortune
While no one disagreed that Fireflight was the best thing to happen to Sandstorm, some thought the Aerial unlucky to have caught the Wrecker's attention – needless to say Flight was of an entirely different opinion.
#29 – Safe
Xantium was veritable fortress and his teammates the most formidable of warriors yet Fireflight was his safe haven in this world gone mad.
#30 – Ghost
Backing away from the bucket of white paint in the jet's hand, Sandstorm plaintively asked if they couldn't dress up as something else for Halloween.
#31 – Book
It was silly, the Wrecker knew, but he still couldn't kick the habit of scanning any reading material he gave Flight to make sure it had a happy ending.
#32 – Eye
When hands suddenly covered his optics, their touch so very familiar, Fireflight didn't need the teasing voiced that whispered, "Guess who?", to know whose arms he was in.
#33 – Never
"No matter what, I will never let go of you."
#34 – Sing
Sandstorm never sang for anyone but Flight – why would he when the red jet was the only one who could make him feel the way he did?
#35 – Sudden
One moment he was going over the team's requisition list –taking careful note of what he would have to get from other sources – and the next he was fighting to regain his balance without letting go of the mass of red and white that had appeared inexplicitly in his arms.
#36 – Stop
Even as he put a stop to their relationship, to prevent things from going too far, the Wrecker had the sinking feeling that they already had.
#37 – Time
Frag Megatron and his drones, time was the real enemy - one they couldn't delay, rush nor stop.
#38 – Wash
He tried to keep his processor on the task before him, scrubbing all the dirt off, getting the hot cleaning solution everywhere, especially into the joints and gaps, but the way the other mech was pressing against him was rather distracting.
#39 – Torn
The red jet hadn't wanted to leave, but with his lover injured as he was, the Wrecker couldn't protect them both and Flight had no illusions as to who the triplechanger would prioritize.
#40 – History
Flight was likely the only bot in Autobot history who had managed to floor a Wrecker without lifting a finger.
#41 – Power
The amount of power the Aerial held over him should have alarmed the triplechanger but in truth he didn't mind and that was what scared him.
#42 – Bother
Flight asked himself once if he was taking up too much of the Wrecker's time but dismissed the notion when he overheard the triplechanger turn down a party invitation saying, "there's no place I'd rather be than here," before returning to the jet's berthside.
#43 – God
Primus willing, Sandstorm would get a fragging clue.
#44 – Wall
He stared at the monumental piece of human architecture for a full klik before turning to the red jet grinning, "I'm guessing the "Great Wall of China" part slipped your processor when you told 'em were just going out for a stroll, huh?"
#45 – Naked -
All trussed up like a present, complete with a bow around his neck, perched on Sandstorm's berth awaiting the triple's return and subsequent reaction, Flight wondered how one could feel so naked when one technically had more on then usual.
#46 – Drive
He was 'pushing the pedal to the metal' as it was yet it still wasn't good enough and Sandstorm cursed the Seekers firing relentlessly upon him, preventing him from taking to the air to go to his lover's aid.
#47 – Harm
Fireflight was the toughest of the Aerialbots but that didn't stop Sandstorm from scanning him to make sure the smaller bot hadn't come to harm after that last collision.
#48 – Precious
The jet would hold the memory of the Wrecker smiling at him in the uppermost part of his processor whenever he felt lost or afraid and for some reason he felt that much braver.
#49 – Hunger
A playful morning romp of theirs was loudly interrupted by two rather neglected fuel tanks.
#50 – Believe
Ever since Flight took up with Sandstorm, the jet became widely acknowledged, among Autobots and Decepticons alike, as the number one worst bot to mess with due to the number and fierceness of his protectors, though by no means were Bluestreak and First Aid far behind.

A/N: And that's another set done… only one more to go and I'll have completed all the 1sentence sets for this couple.
Looking back at the last chapter I found that I had erroneously substituted "Hunter" for the 23rd prompt "Honor". It has been replaced and I sincerely apologize for the mistake.
Please leave a review. Even if it's just "good job" or "I like sentence/s #...",I'd really like to know what you think…. Okay, how about for cake? holds out slice It's chocolate!
