DMK: …alright…err…This is a rewrite. (Duh.) Anyhow…I've rewritten it partly because Aurora's personality isn't very well-portrayed, AND it might help me get back into this story…With that said, ENJOY IT, DARN YOU!
________________________________________________________________
Chapter One
Deep in space, a small, sleek cruiser came out of warp drive. The warp engine nestled on the belly of the ship was smoking. Inside the ship, the pilot rushed from her seat to a nearby monitor hurriedly.
"By the Pit…I KNEW I should have cross-checked that darned warp engine…now I'm stranded…" The pilot trailed off, agitated.
That was, before she looked out the nearest window, and noticed the blue and green planet below. White clouds swirled about in intricate patterns all over the sphere's surface. From her knowledge banks she discovered it was the planet Earth. "So this is Earth…" she said, thinking aloud. "Optimus Prime and the other Autobots should be down there fighting, then…hopefully I won't be detected by the Decepticons…"
But, seconds later, that became the least of the femme's worries. The white, fluorescent lights turned red, and an alarm blared in her audio receptors. She checked the computer's display, and it read that she had been snared in the planet's gravity. Already she noticed as her ship began to move closer and closer to Earth, and the speed increased.
"No! I'll be incinerated if I don't pull out!" She cried in fear, running back to the pilot's seat. Gripping the joystick that acted as the steering mechanism, she pulled it towards her chest. The ship barely responded. "What on Cybertron does Primus have against me?!"
She pulled on the lever once again, and it was only partially effective. The ship was still falling at too great a trajectory. She was going to crash!
'This isn't going to end well…'
________
Autobot Base, Earth
RedAlert had been sitting at his surveillance console when a small blip appeared on his radar. He sat up with a jolt and locked onto the signature. That ship…
He spun around in his console chair. "Optimus! We've got a situation!"
Prime's head snapped up. "What is it?"
"An unidentified spacecraft has entered Earth's atmosphere. Sensors indicate that it's not of human design."
"Is it from Cybertron?"
"More than likely. But I can't establish radio contact so I can't determine whether it's Autobot or Decepticon."
Optimus thought for a moment. "I want you to assemble the team. We're moving out."
"Yes sir!"
_______
Decepticon Base, The Moon
Starscream was sitting alone on a rocky ledge, looking over Earth. He sighed. He was deep in frenzied thought…probably thinking up ways to dethrone Megatron and take power for himself. That was, however until the roar of helicopter rotors reached his auds. He turned to look, and watched as Cyclonus went flying overhead.
"Where on Cybertron have you been?" The copter asked before Transforming and landing on the ground. "Didn't you hear the alarm?"
"No," Starscream grated. "Must've missed it. Why though? Is there another Minicon?"
"Naw, we just picked up a Cybertronian ship on radar. We might have a new teammate!" He cackled.
"A Cybertron ship, eh?" Starscream repeated. Now he was interested…
"Yeah! So let's move it!"
Sighing heavily, the seeker transformed. He then followed Cyclonus back to the base for their orders. They got inside to hear the tail end of Megatron's poor excuse for a pep talk.
"…If the pilot of that ship is a Decepticon, greet him with open arms. If it's anything else, I want it obliterated on the spot, am I understood?"
"Yes sir!" Rang from every present warrior.
"Then fall out!"
