Could someone give me advice on how to do this?

**This is what I want to do:**

```auto
//We have movieclip A and B
--------------------**
-----------------------
-------[A]-------------

//B is moving left, want to follow A's y-coordinate.
--------------<-**---
-----------------------
-------[A]-------------

//B getting closer to A
--------------<-**---
 -----------------------
 -------[A]-------------

//A shaking off B
-------[A]-------------
-----------------------
 -<-**-----------------

//B still following the y-coordinate of A
-<-**-----[A]---------
-----------------------
 -----------------------

```
