Authors Note: When it says End…or so it seems…that is a maybe because I was writing and saving the sequel on a flash drive which held all my fanfictions…and I lost it. I'm still kicking myself in the butt for it. So I'm sorry, I may start over, but, I'm so bust now it's not even funny. So Forgive me my dear readers!
I Love You All.
And Thanks for your encouragement and reviews and just everything!

Chapter 14: I Can Reveal My Past Now, The Rain Is Gone
I opened my eyes, I looked around and found myself in the cockpit of another airplane.
"How are you feeling, Jody?" the familiar voice of Starscream asked me.
"I feel like shit, but besides that I'm fine" I said with a small weak smile "what about you?"
"I am just glad that you are alive" he said.
My smile faded a little and I looked out the window, seeing the gray skies and the rain running over the glass. I sighed.
"It always rains" I said sadly.
There was a pause of silence and I heard a song coming from the speakers around me. I stared out the window still, but listened.
"We walk the narrow path,
beneath the smoking skies.
Sometimes, you can barely tell the difference,
between the darkness and light.
Do we have faith in what we believe?
The truest test,
is when we can not, can not see.
I hear the pound of feet and,
in the streets bellow and a,
and the women crying and a,
and the children moaning and a,
there's something wrong.
It's hard to believe that love will prevail.
It won't rain all the time,
The sky won't fall, forever.
And though the night seems long,
your tears won't fall, forever..."
A tear waltzed down my cheek and I laid my head against the window, I knew that song, I knew it well. I began to sob.
"Jody, what is wrong?" Starscream asked.
"That song, I know it, my dad used to sing it to me when I would look out my bedroom window to see it raining, and couldn't get to sleep" I cried and wiped at my tears with my hands.
"I'm sorry, I did not know" he said and quickly shut off the music.
I sniffed "It's OK. I just have to live with my past, no matter how bad it was, maybe even forget it someday to move on. That's why I help others who need it, so they don't become like me, and become wrapped up in sadness and insanity. Jaden was from a bad background, I helped her through it, she was suicidal and I talked to her, you don't know how much you can help a person just by talking to them, and knowing that they're there" I said, tears still falling.
Starscream became quiet and listened to me, interested in what I was saying.
"My parents died when I was young" I started "My dad was really the only one there for me, my mom would be off doing something else and was too busy to do anything with me" I sniffed "One day they went out for a drive and left me at home alone and later that night, a police officer was at my house and I opened the door and he said my parents were dead, the truck that hit them was out of control and the guy driving it had no sense of safety for others and just crushed my parents car" I shut my eyes tight "And then I moved in with my Grandparents, and right away I knew I did not belong there"
"I am sorry, Jody, really I am" Starscream said, sadness hinting in his voice.
I gave him a weak smile "It's OK Starscream, I'm just glad to know there's someone to listen to me"
Suddenly another song came on, and filled the cockpit with music. I smiled and looked out my window. The sun peaked out over the gray clouds, shining brightly within my eyes. The clouds seemed to dry up as the light from the sun spread, turning them white and fluffy. I smiled as the light hit my face, it was warm and inviting, nothing like I have felt before whilst out in the rain. I smiled and closed my eyes and listened to the song Starscream chose to play for me.
"Take control of the atmosphere,
take me far away from here.
There is no better lose,
than to loose myself, in you.
In a parachute to glide,
I am a captive in your sky.
Surrender somehow becomes so,
beautiful.
Take control of the Atmosphere...
Take control of the Atmosphere...
You can take my world,
you can feel the air,
take control.
Take control...
Such a beautiful,
surrender...
Such a beautiful,
surrender...
Such a beautiful,
surrender...
Such a beautiful,
surrender...
Move me up from the darkest clouds,
until I'm lost in the, every shadow of doubt."
Starscream flew up through the last bit of gray clouds and spun through it like a drill. Now on a higher level of clouds.
"There is no better find then to find,
myself with you.
In a fog,
you are all I see.
I'm inviting you closer,
with each time I breathe."
The seatbelt around my chest became snug around me. I smiled.
"Surrender somehow becomes so,
beautiful.
Take control of the Atmosphere...
Take control of the Atmosphere...
You can take my world,
you can feel the air,
take control.
Take control...
Take control...
Take control...
Such a beautiful,
surrender...
Such a beautiful,
surrender...
It's such a beautiful,
surrender.
Such a beautiful,
surrender..."
There was a little solo in the song. Then all of a sudden the music and singing starts back in and Starscream begins to dive through the clouds. I laugh and scream, as if it was a roller coaster ride.
"Take control of the Atmosphere.
Take control of the Atmosphere...
There's no reason I should be,
the last one in the air.
Take control..."
I smiled and took the pilots wheel and pulled up on it, making Starscream pull up and fly straight again.
"Such a beautiful,
surrender.
Such a beautiful,
surrender.
Surrender.
And I'm calm,
once,
you take control.
And I'm calm,
at once."
I smiled as Starscream headed for the sun, both of us not caring if we got in trouble. I was happy to be in the air, feeling free, and having a friend with me. This was what I thought was Freedom. This is what made me forget about my past, and this was what made the rain go away. The End ...or so it seems...
