The Predicon base is quiet most of the Predicons are in the CR tanks. An occasional ‘clang’ is heard coming from Megatron’s quarters. Megatron is going through his locker. “ Where? Where could it be?” yelled the evil leader. He stands and thinks for a moment. “ This has been a moment I’ve been regretting for a long time. Hmmm…. If Rampage has his spark then his power might over come even mine. I must get it.” Said Megatron.
Rampage and Tarantulas stand in front of a pile of equipment. “Now what 8 eyes?” growled Rampage as he drops another piece of equipment with the rest. “ Now I create.” Mumbled the insane tarantula. “And when will I receive my spark?” grumbled Rampage. “When the time is right… yes… hehehe!” replied the devious spider.
Sky jets over the jungle while scanning the area. “ Computer begin mission report… Log 98 I am now over grid 11-678. There is nothing to report at this time. Scouting mission almost complete.” He looks down at some ruins. “What the….?” Said Sky. “Sky to base. Come in.” said Sky as he lands near the entrance of the ruins. “ Optimus here. What is it Sky?” responded the leader. “ Sir I’ve just found what seems to be some kind of ruin building. I’m receiving some strange readings of energon inside. I’m gonna check it out.” Said Sky as he walks forward into the entrance. He stands inside the mouth of the ruins. “ Wait. Sky don’t enter that…………..zzzzzzzz” said Optimus as his signal dissipates. “ Optimus come in.” said Sky. “ These walls are constructed by some kinda metal I’ve never seen before. “ thought sky as he continues to scan the walls. “Computer begin mission log… I am in some kind of ruins. The walls are made of an alloy that I’ve never seen before. They’re blocking my communicator. But its awesome in here, well for an anthropologist. There appears to be signs of intelligent life in here. I see inscriptions on the walls like some kind of hieroglyphic writing system. I’m going to try and decrepit this writing. I will continue into the ruins after I decrypt the hieroglyphics.” Said Sky as he turns around and walks from the entrance. “ Optimus this is Sky. I’m returning back to base.” Reported Sky as he jets into the sky and starts to head home. “Good. I was worried you’d do something stupid.” Said Optimus. “See ya later sir.”
Tarantulas stands at a work station putting together a few devices. Rampage walks over to the tarantula. “ When are we going to be getting some action. At the moment I am very tired of waiting for you to finish that thing.” Said Rampage angrily. Tarantulas turns quickly. “ Shut up crab! If it wasn’t for me and my ‘things’ you would still be a slave to Megatron. So let me work. Go do something else.” Grumbled Tarantulas as he returns to work. “ Errrr…. I should have never agreed to work with you! But alas I do need to get off this planet if what you say is true.” Mumbled Rampage as he controls his anger. “ Yes… you need me. But if you don’t leave me alone I will not finish in time.” Said Tarantulas annoyed. “ Grrrr….” Mumbled Rampage as he walks from the laboratory.
Sky enters the room quickly and runs over to a station. He sits down and puts a disk into a slot.
“ Hey Sky what do ya have there?” asked Rattrap as he walks over. Then on screen the hieroglyphics appear. “ These are some of the hieroglyphics I found in a ruin. The ruin has large amounts of energon readings emitting from the center. And the place is covered in ‘griphics.” Said Sky. “ I’m trying to decrepit the signs to understand what the ruins are for.” Explained the bird. “Eh sounds like to much thinkin’ to me. Why ya doin’ dis buddy?” asked Rattrap. “ I am a scientist and a anthropologist. Also I am a bit interested in archaeologist. One of the reasons I came on this mission with the future Rhinox was to observe past transformers. Even study the great Optimus Prime. Ancient studies are always fascinating aren’t they?” said Sky. “A ya sure beak buster, but their not my favorite subject. Me I like blowing preds sky high.” Joked the rat. Optimus walks up behind them, “ So Sky…. Hey those look like hieroglyphics, right.” Asked Optimus. “Yes they’re from the ruins. I’m trying to decrypt them.” Explained Sky.
“Any luck?” asked Optimus. “ Well, I’ve made out the first sentence some what. OK it says Points of light, points of life, points of direction lead you out of site. And on first try you will be deliverd to the sky.” Read Sky. “ O boy sounds to deep for me. So I’ll just leave ya ‘lone.” Said Rattrap as he walks away. “ Hmmm…. Its some kinda riddle.” Said Sky. “ Or it is describing something.” Said Optimus. “ Points of light what could that mean?” asked Optimus. “Hmmm… Well those ruins look really old so I don’t think there were electrical lights or energon powered lights when it was made. Maybe it means the stars.” Explained Sky. “Possibly, then that would explain the life part. Because each star has a planetary system full of life.” Said Optimus. “Yes, but what does lead you out of site mean? And what’s this being delivered to the sky?” asked Sky. “ Hey Rhinox come to the command center.” Said Optimus over the comm.
Tarantulas works furiously as Rampage walks in. He walks slowly up behind Tarantulas and reaches for his spark which is on a table next to the spider. “Alert!” screamed the computer as a auto-gun flips out of the wall blasting Rampage to the ground. “Hmmmm…. Not yet my hateful partner. Only when my… I me our mission is complete. Then you will get your spark.(giggles)” snickered the evil spider. “ Then just when is this mission going to start.” Grumbled Rampage. “ Very soon. When this hover platform is completed we will be on our way. Hehehehehe.” Laughed Tarantulas. “ Where will we be going, ‘partner’?” asked Rampage. “ That is not your concern at the moment. You will just have to worry about protecting my lab. And me of course.” Giggled Tarantulas. “ Hmp. Taking orders from you is almost as terrible as taking orders from Megatron. I will rid this world of him and all like him one day.” Said Rampage evilly. “ Oh and you will have your chance crabhead. Hehehehe.” Giggle Tarantulas.
