The Intergalactic Highway

Snow Trix barely had time to prepare when Glowstick took flight but when they landed she shook her head. "Alright definitely nto a fan of flight..." Shaking ehr ehad she transformed looking at the partly opened pod, "And it seems so."

"No problem!," Moonshine responded, before turning her attention to the wounded whale once more. "Please tell me if anything hurts, ok? I'm a medic so hopefully I can help you."

Then she started flapping her wings faster, gaining altitude in order to keep an eye out for more traps. Her sensitive eyesight would come in handy for that.

-------------------------

Not far from the field that the predacons were approaching, a lone wolf crouched down while watching a herd of cows. From the distance it would appear that the wolf was waiting for the right moment to strike terror into the flock of large mammals, but in reality she was merely watching the clumsy animals graze.

Luna had quickly realized that she was not like the other animals here, in that she was of a higher intellect and capable of transforming to a robot form. Nevertheless she felt at home on this world and had felt that way ever since her pod computer had selected a beast form for her.

Her peaceful harmony was suddenly disrupted by a distinct putrid odor that filled the air, causing the wolf to stop sniffing the air and rather bury her snout with her paws.

"What the.."

Then she noticed the group of animals approaching, while hauling a pod..

Hearing voices a female green frilled-lizard pushed the pod open and jumped onto the side glaring orange eyes. "Maximals or Predacons?" She asked still with a slight hiss in her voice.

Glowstick sighed watching the terrified lizard My dear, at the moment that doesn't even matter. However this group is composed of Predacons, we are merely investigating as to why we landed on this planet with a group of stranded maximals as well. So theres no reason to panic. My name is Glowstick, and with me is Snow trix. his tentacle then made gesture to snow trix.

He held out his tentacle towards the female lizard in a open hand manner If you desire, you may join our group.

"I mean no hostility, he hiss is part of my beast form. And yes this is trange odd planet, a truce would be in order I uppose." She said jumped to the ground. "And the name is Frilla Data Collector and analyzer." She said with a slight bow.

Snwo Trix was surprised at the form and yet could not tell whther this femme was a Predacon like them or a Maximal. Deciding to wait until things settled down she smield, "Nice to meet you Frilla and welcome to the group." She said.

Phoenix wrote:"Please tell me if anything hurts, ok? I'm a medic so hopefully I can help you."

The whale murmured, "Everything hurts."

He continued to move upstream and checked his radar, seeing how there was nothing else for him to make himself useful for. The blips of the Predacons were growing nearer to their location, and there was another feint blip with them.

Newcomer? thought Orcariner, Let's hope we can warn them about the defense turrets before they find out the hard way.

Glowstick lowered his tentacle Thats excellent Frilla. I specialize in Communications while Snow trix here is a hacker. I'm sure you'll have much to discuss. He then walked towards the stasis pod, opening the panel he transformed to squid mode, then started to review information on the pod No information available..

(By Request of Warwulf over his cellphone he sent me this to post on here)

High above Earth, a stasis pod's entered the upper atmosphere; blazing a smoky path across the sky. The pod slammed against the side of a tall peak and deflected across the valley into a rolling plain, burrowing a long trough into the earth.

As the smoke and steam began to dissipate, a scanner swept the area searching for a suitable source of DNA. After a brief search, the probe retracted into the pod. From within the pod, a light began to glow as the DNA sequencing was being completed.

Very shortly, loud, violent banging rocked the pod -- the hatch mechanism apparently damaged in the crash landing.

_____________________________________________

Glowstick turned noticing the pod crash, his mantle turning to the side Another one?.. And from the sounds it's broken.. Snow trix you stay here with Frilla. I'll investigate. Glowstick sighed transforming to robot mode, then took off into the air in the direction of the stasis pod.

(Sorry to put a wedge in this but I won't be able to reply for some time. I ahve things I got to do at the moemnt and might nto reply for awhile.I'll be on when I can but as of right now just go on without Snwo Trix.See ya later everyone!)

"Excellent. That might be handy in months to come." Frilla replied before watching Glowstick to chck the other pod. She glanced over watching NSow Trix go off some place. With a shurgg Frilla followed a trail but ended up at another river, "How weird,must be a two way river." She said tapping a small clw agaisnt her bottom jaw.

(Dawww!See you later then Winter!)

Xzuk walked to the edge of what he first believed to be a canyon. He was wrong. Dead wrong.

"Uhm... bots...."

He gestured using his snout.

At the bottom of the canyon was a glowing orange sphere held in place by four metallic pegs.

"So.... I think We've found something important."

Luna stood up just as another blazing pod came crashing down, heading straight for the herd of cows she had been watching moments before. The cows scattered in every direction to avoid the impact. Moments later the pod, a shape very familiar to her, slammed into the ground and the seconds immediately following were silent.

The wolf looked up to see the group of animals closing in the crashed pod.

-------------

Moonshine was hovering above, also looking down at the glowing sphere. It was so beautiful.. almost mesmerizing. Yet at the same time it had an aura of danger to it.

She was snapped out of it when her large companion's words about being in pain sunk in. "Oh dear," she muttered, swooping down to help.

"Maximize!"

She landed on the whale's backside with a gentle thud, some of her medical equipment already in hand. "There is something peculiar up ahead," she warned. "Perhaps you'd like me to fix up some of your injuries before we go to investigate?"

Frilla was running along the sides at her unusual speed but she sniffed the air. Maixmal scent! Running alittle faster she soon caught sight of the group but also soemthing glowing caught ehr attention as well making her slow and walk the rest of the way to look at what it was.

"Peculiar?" asked Orcariner.

Somehow whenever a discovery of something out-of-the-ordinary occurs, it was never good.

"Wait a minute," he said to Moonshine, "You're not blasted out of the sky. We must have traveled past all of the defenses."

Orcariner transformed into his robot mode, his shifting body springing from the river. Standing up straight, he lifted the tiny Moonshine off his shoulder and set her on the river bank.

"Go for it, little lady. I got a feeling something bad's about to happen, and I'm going to need all the strength I can get."

Icebreaker walked up to the area Xzuk was at looking over What the.. Uh.. So whats your plan? steal the sphere?

Icebreaker then slammed his combat knife into the dirt Icebreaker Maximize! he then transformed to robot mode lifting the knife and putting it away in the massive shield on his left shoulder. He then pulled out a massive looking gun and pulled out a rod as three prongs unfolded from it, sliding it into the gun's barrel I can get down there if we need to.
