Amity-Star: Hiya folks! Here once more. And to answer Honesah's question about, and may I quote, 'where have you been these last few weeks', well, I had a lot on my plate. A lot of homework from school and I'm not even going to mention the load of assignments they've loaded us with. Then there is the formal committee, Saturday school and after school happenings.

Megatron: That, plus she's been after this guy that is after one of her not-so-good-but-on-speaking-terms friends.

Amity-Star: Why are men so complicated?

Disclaimer: I don't own Transformers but I own the soon to be series of The BIG Change. I own only Dawn; Dual Mistress K owns Caitlin and Torika_Blayde owns Shadowlocks. Plus I own the plot.

~^*^~ Unsettling Change, Part I ~^*^~

Optimus sped down the corridors, his hopes of reaching the dorm room first dashed as Blurr rushed passed him, his intent clear in the excitement in his eyes. A wild emotion surged through Optimus' veins as he picked up his pace, running people down and shouting his apologies over his shoulder to them, hoping some comfort would come to them only to be face with crude hand gestures and muttered obscenities.

Skidding to a halt before bolting up the stairs, he looked behind him and dared to wear a sly grin. He had passed Blurr when he rounded his third turn a couple of halls back and he had seen Hot Shot and Starscream dash over from the other side of quad outside from a window from the maths block at the other side of the campus.

Grabbing the railing that lead to the upstairs dormitories for half the male population in the campus, Optimus felt like a speed demon as he rounded the corner and slid down half of the corridor before coming to a halt infront of his dorm door, he slid his key in and nearly rammed the door down if it had not opened before his foot-baller like strength would knock it down.

"Ah, my precious brownies, we are alone at last." He smiled evilly and edged towards the mini-fridge the roomies all shared. Bending down and opening the fridge door with relish, he closed his eyes and slowly put his hand in, only to pull it out with a note on a large plate that looked suspiciously squeaky-clean. "What's this?" he asked as he opened the note.

Dear Optimus,

We owe you: 6 brownies. Have a nice day.

Red Alert, Hot Shot, Starscream, Blurr, Jet Fire and Sideswipe.

Optimus looked from the plate to the note and then noticed a small piece of writing on the other side.

P.S: Don't touch the plate. Sideswipe literally licked the plate clean. Jets.

Shadowlocks looked all over the campus and found no sign of Starscream. It had been two weeks since the party and she hadn't seen him since, well, except from class. "Starscream, where the hell are you?" she thought as she decided to go for a walk through the woods. Picking up her coat and telling Caitlin, who was watching her Linkin Park: Live in Texas DVD, where she was going, she grabbed her cell phone and started walking towards the large expanse of woods that bordered the College on the western side.

Not knowing of what would take place over the next twenty-four hours, she proceeded to walk; feeling exactly like the young girl, Little Red Riding Hood walking to her grannies, only just simply going for a walk.

The shadow followed her, never missing a step or revealing itself to the greyness of the world.

It's victim stepped on a twig and turned rapidly, laughing nervously when she realised it was she who had made the loud noise in the seemingly dead winter forest.

A twisted smile graced the predators face and the creature pursued, making strange yet somewhat familiar and scary sounds for the quarry.

The shadow seemed to meld with the other shadows and reappear infront of the quarry, swathed in shadow and secrecy. It smiled even more when the victim turned into a puddle of shaking jelly. "W-who a-a-are you?!"

"Some one you will want to kill. . . If you live that long." Replied the shadow coolly in an icey tone.

The quarry turned and ran blindly through the white and black world of trees, never noticing the open mouth of the mines. Never failing to look behind and not infront. Never failing to fall. . .

Shadowlocks' twisted scream echoed throughout the whole forest that day, going unheard by all that lived in the real world. A world where everything that is unreal happens only in the movies. A world where there are no avenging sisters. And a world where true love can set anyone free.

Star Fox stepped out of the shadows, her long golden-blond hair cut out evenly, her hazel-green eyes flashing with the viciousness of a viper and the deadly venom of a Red-Back spider. Reaching into her long black trench coat, she pulled out a small tubular thing and a lighter. Lighting the lighter and smiling evilly, she looked down into the dark hole of the abandoned mine. "Game. Set. Match."

She took a long drag of her cigarette. "Only a matter of time sister dearest. And then we'll finish what we started."

And with the flick of her coat, the mineshaft collapsed, sealing the fate of Shadowlocks, Nikkitacon warrior and best friend of Dawn Fox.

Amity-Star: I think I've been reading just a BIIIITTTT too much lately. But I can't help it. I love reading Deltora Quest and Looking For Alibrandi and Saving Francesca. They're so good them books. Anyway, Honesah, if you're reading this, e-mail me about you know what that you mentioned in the review from the last chapter, I think it's going to be good.

Nee way, read and review and I'll try post up as soon as my crap teachers let me free from the will of their dreaded homework goblins.

Megatron: Oh jeez, fear the goblins.  *small goblin type thing runs past and thrust's piles of maths homework paper into Amity-Star's hands*

Amity-Star: You were saying?

*Blessed Be!!!
