I only have 5 words: the plot bunnies convinced me. So, I had this idea, and it was eating me alive, so I finally decided to get off my lazy butt and write it. So, behold the Transformers: Prime fic I promised you all!
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoo
It seemed like any normal day for Jack Darby. Well, as normal as a day can get when you know about a top secret military base that hosts extraterrestrial beings, and one of them happens to be your guardian.
"Arcee, could you speed up slightly? I can't be late for school today," Jack yelled over the wind whipping over his bike helmet, turning around a corner on Arcee, a blue Autobot femme who happened to be his guardian, and the motorcycle he had always wanted.
"What's the rush?" she said, picking up speed and zooming through a intersection.
"We have a...test in... English today," Jack said uncertainly.
Arcee chuckled, braking at a red light. "So, what's the real reason?" she asked, speeding up again as the light turned green.
"We're getting a new transfer student from Ohio, and I really want to meet her."
"Uh huh. Know her name?'
" Naw, they haven't bothered to tell us. I'm not sure it even is a she, Arcee."
"Well, Jack, you're about to find out," said bot said with a chuckle, pulling up and parking in front of the school.
"Thanks, Arcee," jack replied, dismounting off the bike and taking his helmet off.
"Yo! Jack! 'Cee!" a familer voice yelled from behind the two.
"Miko..." Jack growled slightly, "Top secret..."
"Oh! Righttttt," Miko replied, bounding over to Jack's side. "Did ya see the new chic yet?"
"So, it's a girl?' Jack asked with a hint of excitement.
Miko nodded, a large grin plastered on her face. "Hey! Raf!"
Rafael came walking over from behind Jack, Bumblebee beeping goodbye and speeding away. " Hi Miko! Jack!"
"Hello, Raf," Jack greeted. Raf joined the pair, and the trio set off towards the foot of the stairs, climbing them to reach their school.
"So, what's she look like?" Jack asked Miko once they entered the school.
"You'll see!" Miko replied with a casual smirk.
"Who are you talking about?" Raf asked, confused.
"The new girl. Oh, and Jack, her locker is next to yours!" Miko snickered, latching onto Raf's arm and towing him away from the dazed 16 year old.
Jack watched the two disappear down the halls, then walked towards his locker in a dazed state. As he neared his locker, he spotted the girl, and his hopes instantly dropped. he didn;t stand a chance against a girl like her.
She looked about his age, 16, but tall and lean. She had a silver looking hair color, waist length, with tan skin. She was wearing some baggy black cargo Capri, white converse sneakers, and a silver shirt, a little darker in color then her hair.
Jack cleared his throat nervously, and went to his locker. He started to dial in his combination, when she looked at him, making him choke.
The girl had bright green eyes, with small white and silver flecks in them. Jack screwed up his combination entirely, the locker locking up again. he slammed his head into his locker, his face turning deep red.
"Scrap," he muttered under his breath.
"Ya need some help, mate?" the girl asked in an Australian accent, moving to Jack's side.
"No! Yes! I mean... Yes, that would be nice," Jack stuttered.
The girl chuckled, twisting the dial around. "What's yas combination?"
"24, 37, 3," jack whispered, glancing around. The girl dialed in the combination, popping the locker open.
"There ya go, mate!" the girl replied with a smile, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"Thanks. And, I'm Jack," Jack replied, holding out his hand.
"M' name's Saber," Saber replied, her eyes flashing brightly as she shook Jack's hand, " Nice ta meet ya, mate."

Ugh, pain in the butt chapter to write, oddly. And after I finish this, I'll explain how Shadow Stalker magically appears later in the story by writing another fic...
