Trying to dynamically Rotate a Dynamically Created Movie Clip

var electronsH:Array=new Array

var electron:Sprite = new Sprite();

buildElectronBeam(8,50,50)

function buildElectronBeam(atom,repeatHorizontal,wide)

{

             For loop{

                   var electron2:Sprite = new Sprite();

                  singleElectron(radius,4,electron2)  // here i send electron2 to be animated and built up in the called function

                  electron2.rotation=90 // This does rotate the electron but not the animation defined for it.

                   electronsH[h]= electron2

                   addChild(electronsH[h]) // shows that animation is still horizontal

              }

}

function singleElectron(radius,pixel,electron:Sprite)

{

createPoint(pixel)

    function createPoint(radio:uint)

    {

        electron.graphics.beginFill(0xFFFFFF,1)

        electron.graphics.drawRect(0,0,pixel,pixel)

        addChild(electron)

        electron.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, movepixels) 

     }

     function Animatepixels(e:Event)

     {   pixel starts to spin on a horizontal line}

}

I think my problem is I dont know how to attach this animation to be part of the MovieClip so i Can rotate the whole thing. What i was trying to achieve here is to say flash "Consider whatever going on in this singleElectron function as my MovieClip" but as we both see, electron is the movieClip and animate function just performs something without being a part of MovieClip itself.

@Moccamaximum

No instance or symbol created...No animation on timeline. The code is placed on first frame of the Stage.

I do not want to use TWEEN class because i m defining my own patters for animating the .x and .y properties of Electron. As you noticed, the Animate function here is still detached from the electron movieClip and the quest is to how make this animation an attached motion of the movie clip so the whole thing can be rotated together.
