Chapter 4

"Are you sure, TC?" asked Rumble as Frenzy wrestled with German Shepard at the door.

"Positive," replied the seeker. "I'm sure you two will take good care of him."

"Okay, thanks!" replied Frenzy, eager to leave with his and his brother's new pet. Thundercracker sighed as the two younglings left the room.

Thundercracker knew that sometimes he could get obsessed with things. Why did Skywarp always get to be the crazy one? Of course now that he was revealed to be a she, Thundercracker had given himself a reality check. Between Starscream's daily near death experiences and Skywarp's unpredictability, one of the three had to be the responsible adult. And, oddly enough, that made Thundercracker feel pretty good.

"Hey, TC, open the door or I'll warp in," said Skywarp suddenly as she knocked on the door.

"I see you being a femme didn't give you any more manners," said Thundercracker as he opened the door. He noted that Starscream was behind her and that, until she pulled away, their hands were intertwined. Skywarp crashed into him with a hug. Being a girl, TC figured she could just do this now whenever she wanted to.

"I'm sorry I couldn't tell you," she said, pulling back and stepping back towards Screamer. Skywarp then sighed and asked, "Do you want to hear my story?"

"That would be nice," TC replied and took a seat. "Do I have to invite you to sit down?" Starscream and Skywarp chuckled and took seats across from their Trine Mate. Skywarp gave an explanation of what her mother had done to her and TC easily understood. Skywarp was Skywarp and- mech or femme-that would never change.

"And there is, um, something else," she said rapidly.

"What?" asked TC, even though, being the responsible one he knew he was, he had a good idea.

"Well, you see, Star, well he and I…" stammered Skywarp.

"Sky," Starscream said quietly, placing a hand on her knee. "It's Thundercracker. If anyone will be okay with it, he will." Skywarp to a confident intake of breath and then calmingly released it.

"Starscream and I are together," she finally said.

"Thought so," said Thundercracker with a smirk. "Way to pick a jealous one, Warp."

"That's what I said," she laughed.

"Oh shut up!" snapped Starscream. "I am not a jealous person!" Both Thundercracker and Skywarp gave him deadpan stares and then proceeded to crack up again.

End of Chapter…

Kai: I'm so sorry for this pathetic update of a chapter, but I am literally on constant writer's block for the middle bits of this story, but the end and the sequel are all planned out! I promise I will try to update sooner! I own nothing, but the plot! Peace!
