"Alright class remember we have a pop quiz on the chapters I assigned this this week so be ready cause I won't tell you when," the English said just before the bell rang and a stampede of teenager ran out of the room.

"Ruby I need to talk to you please," the woman added motioning for the girl to come to her desk.

"Yes Mrs. Sullivan,"Ruby replied in a groggy voice due to the fact that she was not used to being up this early in the morning.

"My dear I want to discuss two things first and most importantly your grades. In you last residence they were remarkable I expect no less, now I understand this is your first day but due try and pay attention in my class you have many doors open to you if your wise," the woman explained genuinely concerned for the girl's education.

"Yes ma'am it won't happen again," the girl replied her mind still on why she was day dreaming in the first place.

FLASHBACK

"So judging from the fact that your metal and haven't tried to eat me yet I'd say...friend?" Ruby asked the giant man eye to eye with her.

"Rogue, and I am no friend of yours I can tell you that," the booming voice surrounded but still not one ounce of fear was found in her eyes.

"So...what do you want, you gonna kill me?" she asked sarcastically calling his bluff.

"Your name human," was all he said thinking fast for he'd be damned if he'd ever admit that it was her voice that drew him to her.

"I don't tell my name to strangers, you tell me urs first," she said smirking as she saw the look of irritation forming on his face.

"But- that's not right I asked you first," the bot argued not realizing how childish he just sounded, then pouted when she looked at him with a determined and very much serious looking face.

"Fine have it your way Rogue I'm off to bed then," she said climbing back into her window and was about to close her window on him but was stopped by his voice.

"Starscream my name is Starscream alright," the former decepticon said quickly before she looked him in the eye once more.

"Ruby," was all she said then added quoting Forest Gump," well know ain't strangers no more, good night Starscream."

END OF FLASHBACK

"Was there anything else Mrs. Sullivan," the girl asked wanting nothing more then to go home.

"Yes actually Ms. Whitwicky there is," the woman said smiling encouragingly.

"We spoke to your councilors and some of the guards and family and we all came to an agreement on something," the girl didn't like where this was going,"Ruby this ear we launched a new ball room dance program and with your marks and talent in pretty much all forms of dance we would like to encourage you to try out for the competition team for the school."

"Excuse me," the girl said shocked," I haven't danced in years nuh- uh,"she said before starting to walk away.

"Ruby, my dear you skipped a grade up, your graduating at sixteen...my dear you keep those grades up and work your ass off and you could get a full ride through Julliard so you understand?" This is the opportunity of a life time," the English teacher explained making Ruby stop dead in her tracks.

"C-can I think about it first," the teenager asked timidly, really she was still a kid and his was a huge decision.

"Of course try outs are in two weeks we'll see you there," Mrs. Sullivan said before Ruby left for the day.

One week later...

Ruby sat on the roof of her house once more but this time no beautiful melody came from her mouth that seemed to echo across the winds; no tonight she sat in deep thought holding a pair of worn black Satin point ballet shoes caressing them lovingly as she thought in silence.

"Rub? Hey Ruby Gloom what you doin' up here?" Sam asked from her window not feeling brave enough to climb up there, at least not after Mission City just yet.

"Sam do you think I should do this I mean what if I don't get in I'm not good for anything else unless someone needs a thief for hire," the girl said leaning down to the window then added in a whisper," besides I don't want to be disappointed again."

"How could they possibly turn down you when you dance like an angel, a shedevil you maybe but you are an incredible dancer, hell your an amazing performer in general,"Sam said honestly and when he saw the slight sliver of a smile he added," you born to be on stage and any brainless bimbo could see that, so just go for it show 'em how its done and then make something of yourself already."

"Why do you guys have such high hopes for me?" she asked seriously, Sam just smiled at her before leaving her back to her thoughts.

"So silent tonight human,"a booming yet comforting voice that could the toughest of men shit themselves.

"Starscream, I thought you weren't my friend what the hell are you doing here? Again," she asked not in the mood for giant robots.

"That is none of your concern small one now what troubles you so that you won't create that sound of yours?" the bot demanded quickly changing the subject off him because he didn't even know why he was here...again.

"First off its called singing learn the term if you like it so much and second you call me short and you really want to know why I'm troubled? wow your really not that bright for a highly advanced species," she said being a smart ass.

"Fine be difficult see if I care," which he did," but whatever it is you don't want to do just suck it up and quite being afraid, all you humans are so afraid all the time over insignificant things. Well evolve will you, if you have an ability then put it to some damn good use obviously the boy thinks you do and he doesn't seem so dumb compared to these other dsgusting creatures."

"Your right, can't believe I'm admitting this but your right I'm being stupid," she said feeling more like her old self.

"Now that that's over, make that sound already," the rogue asked impatiently.

'Oh I'll sing to you all right you demanding son of a bitch.' she thought to herself before...

"This is the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friends..."

ok that's all for now I kinda enjoyed that you know what to do keep those reviews and yes I still suck at grammer in case you wanted to let me know
