Invisible String

Forever And Always

Dorothy cringed at the last sentence knowing Twitch would have been taken apart just for her hover wings. Anger flooded her veins, knowing they were getting close to the answers. A part of her was worried to see what he had to say about successfully preforming interdimensional travel, but she also craved the answers. If not for herself but for her friend.

August Log: The machine is built; I just need a volunteer to see if they make it to the other side. I have been wanting a new arm and that beast G.H.O.S.T keeps around might do the trick. I do have two of his old lackeys with me but using his human companion as interdimensional bait might give her too much credit. Especially if the machine breaks before I can enter it. the benefits are too high.

A diagram of human outline appeared on the screen. Different lines pointed to different places but the words that caught Dorothy's eye were in the middle over the heart. "Anti-Aging"

It seems, with the difference in time between here and there, the aging process would stop almost entirely, meaning I would be almost immortal on the other side. A God amongst men. Although if my coordinate calculations are off there's no telling what could happen. It could trigger a black hole or even create a suction like whirlpool of space matter. Someone else could come through. But those are the risks I am willing to take.

The logs went on, but Dorothy had read enough. Alex stood as his wife stumbled back from the screen, mouth agape and covered with her hand. He grabbed her wrist before she could fall backwards.

"What has this monster done to her?" Her voice came out as a whisper before she buried her face into Alex's shoulder. She couldn't age. At least not in the normal way. What a cruel fate. Although there might have been a silver lining, Dorothy still felt sorrow for her friend. She'd had countless conversations with Megatron over the many years of their friendship and the conversation of his age and how his kind would outlive the whole human species had come up before.

If it was hard for him to think about outgrowing humanity, she could only imagine the look of horror that her friends face would hold.

A buzzing sound brought Dorothy out of her thoughts. The couple turned to the computer to watch smoke start to pour out of the backside of the processor. They both reached out to it, almost too late for Alex to rip the Flash Drive out, before it could catch fire. Dorothy tried to fight the flames with her hand, but Alex pleaded with her to leave, before the smoke could cover them, or before something else could catch on fire rendering them trapped.

"Come one, we have as much information as we are going to get. Please Dottie, let's go!" Finally, Dorothy complied, moving her legs as fast as they could go while also making sure Alex could keep up. They ran to the exit Dorothy had found previously. As they escaped and readied to call the proper authorities (anonymously), Dorothy wondered if she would ever find out what the difference between the two rifts were. But as her legs moved forward her mind began to shift to how in the world she would ever be able to explain their findings.

The wall that sat between you and Megatron had not only been blown to pieces, but the pieces had been blown to bits. The bits blown to fragments and so on. What you weren't prepared for was what the wall had been holding back. While Halloween had come and gone (you were somehow convinced to walk around with the children), Megatron had not. It was almost sad seeing a war hardened ex-warlord be reduced to a waging tail whenever he had the chance to spend time with you.

From walking you to work and back, to spending more time than you thought possible with you. You could feel the warm tinges of affection any time he looked at you or held you or swayed in your direction. And after a few weeks of this, you were having a hard time keeping the blossoming relationship under wraps.
