This was an odd one. I'm not sure what would make someone

think, "You know what Transformers needs? A romance? You

know what would make that romance special? If the woman was a

vampire!" But here's the result. Well, teh partial result,

as the fic is on hiatus at the moment. Of course, since

there's seven chapters so far and the two presumed principles

have had all of one awkward conversation, and there's been far

more interaction between the vampiress Roxanne and Capt.

Lennox - whom I didn't realize was Capt. Lennox until I read

commentary on Why, God, Why pointing it out. Sad part is,

once I realized it and reread what I had so far, that bit of

knowledge made absolutely no difference.

I am a firm believer that any story idea can be made readable

with a sufficiently skilled writer. Those skills are simply

not in evidence here. See it untouched for yourself here:

And once I went through and annotated the riff refences, I

realized this probably the biggest story I've ever tackled

solo. Yay?

An on with the disclaimers:

Rifftrax and all related character are property of Rifftrax

and Legend Films. "Unbreak My Spark" is property of

Vampirerex1. All used without permission.

WARNING: This MSTing contains riffs referring to, inspired by,

and/or ripped off from: John Mellencamp, the Twilight series,

Knight Rider, Chuck, True Blood, The Police, Janet Jackson,

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Lord Of the Rings, The

Simpsons, Bravestarr, Austin Powers, Jeopardy!, DC Comics,

Saturday Night Live, Ultra Brite toothpaste, Looney Toons,

Road House, Fawlty Towers, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Paul

Harvey, The Room, Little Shop of Horrors, The B-52s, The Big

Lebowski and Toni Braxton.

For those who don't know what the G1 Transformers Scene Change

sounds like:
