So as we all know I donât stop making OCs. Perhaps for that one large few month break but Iâm back with a new set of OCs. This is the unfortunate story of five sisters who didnât ask to be made. This is the story of Underglow, Trickshot, Nightcall, Vice Drive and Stick Shift.
Five sisters cursed to be the spawns of Unicron, some try to defy their calling while some give into temptation.
The eldest of the sisters is Underglow, a F-15E Strike Eagle and a Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX triple changer. Underglow tried to set example to her two younger sisters Trickshot and Nightcall. The three were sparked from a Kaon hot spot during the golden age, all three aspiring to be medical professionals. They went to the Iaconian Institute of Medicine, Underglow studying under General Medicine to become a doctor. Shortly after graduating she ended up working at a small relinquishment clinic in the Dead End. Growing tense at her situation, she was one of the first of the three to begin participating in the Kaon riots. As soon as war broke out, she aligned herself with the Decepticons and worked as a brute rather than a field medic. She was quite a card on the playing field, the once compassionate doctor-turned-moral-less brute. Perhaps this was the Unicron blood that ran through her pumps that took the forefront. She was different, drastically different. She became a cunning strategist, a commander. A general. Quickly did she rise the ranks of the Decepticons. She fit their ideals to a T, it was like something in her turned the moment she rampaged through the streets during the first riots. A catalyst for something worse perhaps? She didn't quite know, but she wasn't so opposed to this now. She almost seemed to enjoy this newfound bloodlust. A far cry from the empathetic doctor she once tried to be. She was among the board of generals that reported to Megatron himself, among the top of the Decepticon hierarchy. There was only a few that beat her in rank and Starscream was one of them, even though she loathed the fool. Her early days in the war saw her among the frontliners, mowing down Autobots without remorse, however later into the war Underglow saw herself stepping back from the front lines and commanding troops instead of fighting alongside them.
The middle child of the three is Trickshot, a F-117 Nighthawk and Dodge Challenger triple changer. Trickshot was much more reserved than Underglow, she had a genuine passion of wanting to help others and prove that she wasn't some disposable from Kaon. She worked hard to earn a degree is surgery, hoping to because a surgeon and help those in need. What ended up happening was because of her place of origin, no hospital would offer her a position. So she decided to go back to school and learn forensics instead. There she, with the help of a former colleague from university, forged a fake resume to earn her a position among the senate's police force. She worked alongside those like Prowl, Chromedome and even Orion Pax in her time as a forensics investigator. However quickly was her file dug up and compared with those kept in a senate archive. She was quickly found out as a fraud and had to be discharged from her position. When the riots began she was hesitant, not wanting to stir up more trouble than she already caused with the senate. As rioting teetered into war, she aligned herself with the Autobots initially, acting as a field medic and working alongside an old classmate, Ratchet. For a while she was content with this, at least now she can help. However towards the peak of the war troops were running low. So she and many other non-combatants volunteered to fight for the cause. Trickshot wasn't a great fighter, but she was an amazing shot. She became a sniper, taking out figureheads from afar. For most of the war this is how she spent her time, sitting at vantage points shooting down Decepticons and raising siege on Kaon. It wasn't until she was captured along with many other scouts in an ambush that she was considered MIA. She figured Optimus and his Autobots would rescue her and countless scouts and soldiers that were captured. But he never came. Instead, Trickshot raised her own escape. Evacuating the last of the troops, Trickshot was caught by her sister Underglow. The two had an intense showdown but it ended up Underglow speaking to Trickshot, wholeheartedly, convincing her that the Autobots don't care about their soldiers. How Optimus left her to die. It instilled this cynicism in her and with slight hesitation, she gave herself in to Megatron and defected to the Decepticons. The younger of the three is Nightcall, a UH-60 Black Hawk and Yamaha YZF-R1. Nightcall being the youngest of the three meant she had much to live up to. Going to the same institute as her sisters, she had to compare grades, behavior, as well as being compared to her older sisters. However she didn't quite mind. She was studying to be an anesthesiologist after all. She tried to keep a cool and collected demeanor when interacting with other students, many noted she was quite quiet and introverted. However she was more or less freaking out on the inside hoping to make a good impression. Throughout her education however she could be considered the one with the best grades and most qualified for a position of her skillset. Yet those two little words that caused her sisters so much trouble plagued her as well. Of Kaon. This lead to a panic to the young bot, she didn't have herself together enough to make do with what she had. She banked all her time and shanix on this and she's being turned away at every door. What can she even do? Come the rescue of her eldest sister and she is now working as a pharmacist in the Dead End. She wouldn't say she enjoyed the job per say, but it did pay the bills and she can live with that. However the side comments she get leave much to be desired. Then came along the riots. She was a gentle femme at spark, with a spark of gold and the patience of a saint, she tried to participate in her own way, despite how quiet it may be. True she saw the light in the problem but she couldn't possibly commit arsony or any other kind of felony because of it. She supposed that was also her downfall. She initially aligned with the Autobots, acting as a field medic alongside her sister Trickshot. Early in the war Nightcall along with a few other medics were transferred to an Autobot stronghold on the otherside of the Rust Sea. There one of the most awful biological attacks seen in Cybertronian history would be held. Troops coming back from battle unknowingly carried a pathogen for an unknown plague. However quickly did it spread from troops to officers to medics. Everyone in the secluded camp had been infected and quickly wiped out. The affect of the virus was fast-acting, meaning it killed the host in minutes once it reached full incubation. There weren't many survivors that were recovered from the site before dying in Autobot hands. However one of the only survivors who actually survived the attack was Nightcall. Being an anesthesiologist as well as versed in medicine, she managed to delay the inevitable long enough to be discovered. But it wasn't Autobot troops that came to her rescue. She was picked up by her sister that lead an army to siege the Autobot camp. It didn't take much convincing to have Nightcall defect. Once taken under Decepticon wings, she was treated with a fast acting antidote, though it killed the virus, it didn't do much to fix the damage it had already caused. Ashamed of herself, she chose to hide her identity, using a full-face holo visor and mouth modifier. She prefers to work behind the scenes as a security and communications officer. Stellar cycles later, two sparklings were born from the dying hot spot of Kaon baring the same markings on their lips as their predecessors. Two of the last sparklings to be born from Kaon, they were named Vice Drive of Kaon and Stick Shift of Kaon. Vice Drive, the older of the siblings, is a Chevrolet Camaro 1SS and Kawasaki Versys 650 ABS triple changer. Initially finding herself lost in the vast ruins that was Kaon, she was found by an Autobot search team after they followed what seemed to be the sounds of a baby Cybertronian. They were right to assume so, though when they went back to see if the hot spot had any more, Stick Shift seemed to have disappear. Needless however, the scouts brought the sparkling back to Optimus Prime. Though the Prime met the youth with hesitation, this is war, this is no where to raise a child. They shouldn't have to live like this. However many of the troops that stood before him vowed to keep the sparkling safe, rather their hands then Megatron's. So that's how she was raised, among war and rubble with joint cusody of most of the Autobot fleet. However the older the got the quicker she had to mature. She had to learn about death, grieving, sacrifice and betrayal. A lot for a young child to get used to so fast. The moment she was old enough to form her own trains of thought, many of the older generals of the Autobot cause tried to urge Optimus Prime to let her make use of herself, to have her fight like the rest of them. Optimus being the way that he is was quite hesitant, she was still so young and to send her out to battle? He couldn't possibly do that to a child. Ratchet was quick to interject, stating they could always use more medics in the field. Forming a quick plan, Optimus place the care of Vice Drive in Ratchet's hands, where he taught her everything there was to know about medicine. She was a natural, she stayed focus and knew what she was doing. In no time was she patching up bots in timely manners like it was no big deal. Though Ratchet was proud of her to say the least, he couldn't help noticing the similarities between her and one of his old colleagues. Vice Drive stayed with the Autobot cause, helping when she could and being proud of it. All until Cybertron's lights went out. She was launched into space with many other bots where she spent deca cycles until she received transmissions from Earth. Landing into the organic planet, her beacon was quickly met with hostility as Decepticon grunts tried to make waste of her. However what was left of Team Prime came to her rescue, and that is where she plans to stay. Now, the younger of the twins was Stick Shift. A Hover Jump Jet and Yamaha MT-10 triple changer, Stick Shift was quite peculiar than all five of her siblings before her. The moment she was sparked the young Stick Shift found herself hiding in the shadows. Having been barely missed by the gaze of the Autobot scouts, Stick Shift went to quick work to the overall plan that had her sparked in the first place. Stick Shift always knew, deep down, she was made for a reason. All of her siblings were. They were instilled with a tiny bit of impurity that caused them rejection as many of Primus's children. As Stick Shift got older, hiding amongst the shadows and plotting, she heard voices, not of many, but one voice. One that compelled her to do many things she didn't think to try. Many that convinced of things she didn't understand. The voice spoke to her, it rumbled through her chassis and into her processor. It felt like it came from within her. There was many things she was told, in fact. Among those was the thought that she was a rejection of Primus, a mistake child that shouldn't have been sparked. She bore the mark on her lower lip, a single black stripe. She was told the blood of Unicron runs through her veins, that she was touched in her spark by darkness, blood that coursed through her circuitry and decided her fate. Because of this she was not allowed into the All-Spark where Primus lays, she was essentially immortal. As was all her siblings before her. They were lost causes however, they didn't yield to Unicron's will, he couldn't reach them. But Stick Shift, he could. She was a one-bot cult, of sorts. Believing that Unicron will end this war once and for all and achieve what he sought to do in the first place, devouring all who called themselves creations of Primus. Only those who abandoned the false god would be spared. Or so she thought at least. Cycles did he scheme and set up her maker's resurgence. When Cybertron went dark, she stole a Decepticon escape pod, from a now abandoned Kaon. Arriving on Earth, the crust in which encased her master, she set to try and bring her reckoning on both the Autobots and Decepticons. However she didn't reall get this chance as Megatron seemed to have gotten to that before her. He tried to bind himself to Unicron forcefully, she could feel it. As she was essentially Unicron's presence outside his tomb. Even though Megatron and Optimus stood together to 'destroy' Unicron before he could destroy Earth, Unicron was not 'truly' dead, no. He still had an asset that lived, an asset that he lives through. Contacting both the Autobot's Base and the Nemesis, she relayed but one cryptic message. "You may think you have defeated him. But you only made but a roadblock for his resurgence. He is not dead. Unicron lives."
