Hotshot felt his head spin. Above his head was nothing but trees. What a strange color they had shown. HotShot looked around and found none of his surroundings familiar.What happened?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Previous day~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"HotShot," a blue mecha yelled out to his comrade, "We're supposed to stick together!" A red and yellow mecha speedily rushed forward. Coming to a stop, HotShot looked back.
"Come on Blurr, can't a guy have a little fun?" HotShot waited patiently for a moment, but didn't want to stand still for long.
"This is just a Recon mission, why are you getting so worked up about it?" Blurr asked
"Being cooped up in the base isn't exactly what one might call 'fun' Blurr," HotShot said leaving a haughty remark
"Go any faster and we'll have to go back to the base," The blue mecha said, "What's that over there?" pointing into the forest, HotShot gets excited over what it could be.
"It could be Decepticon Activity, I'll go check it out" HotShot said as he transformed. Blurr tried to stop him, but it was too late, HotShot had already sped off to see what was going on. Blurr followed behind, but got a feeling something wasn't right.
As HotShot approached the source of what his comrade was taking about, he stopped and looked around. The only thing he could see was an old temple.
"Blurr? I think something might be messing with your processor cause there isn't anything goin' on here." HotShot said as he turned to his partner as he caught up.
"I was talking about the temple you idiot," Blurr said, "I have been here a hundred times and that temple was never there."
"I'm sure you just missed it Blurr," HotShot said looking at the temple, "Why do I get the feeling like we aren't alone." HotShot took a step closer to the temple, getting the feeling that he needed to check it out
"HotShot, we better get going" The blue mecha said as he turned around
"Hold on I wanna check this out." HotShot said, as he got closer to the Temple. HotShot stood at the entrance to the temple, which was small, but big enough for HotShot to fit through.
"HotShot, stop!" Blurr yelled out to HotShot, but HotShot was already inside, "Curiosity killed the cat, HotShot, Don't say I didn't warn you!"
Curiosity may have killed the cat, but I'm a transformer! HotShot thought to himself as he made his way through the cramped crawl space. Soon he found a space big enough that he could stand. Looking around him he found that the temple seemed a bit like the forest outside. HotShot looked around cautiously and saw in the middle of the room a pedestal with large stone tablets on them. HotShot picked one of these tablets up when I soft pillar of light shown from behind him. A small giggle rang through the room.
"Hail! For the hero has returned to reclaim his right and restore his glorious past!" the voice spoke softly. HotShot widened his Optics in disbelief at what was happening
"Wait, what are you talking about?!" HotShot hesitated, "I'm no hero and I don't have a glorious past!" the light flickered and took shape as a small fairy
"But it is you who has been chosen!" the fairy exclaimed with eagerness. HotShot looked at the fairy, wondering if his optics were fooling him, "My name is Fairy and My people need your help!"
"Listen, I don't wanna disappoint, but there must be some mistake! I'm nothing more than an ordinary Autobot, nothing special!" HotShot started to back away from the fairy of light, but she only got closer
"This is no mistake! This is destiny!" Fairy said as she flew up high in the air, she then let her light shine through the windows and pointed to the first window. HotShot looked at the windows and examined each; the first was of a hero in green followed by the scenes of grief and despair.
"Long ago, there was an ancient legend of a hero in green who would came and save the people of Cyberulia," HotShot immediately cut her off
"Wait, wait, wait! Start from the very beginning, what is this land?"
"I'm sorry I was getting in over my head…" Fairy turned
to the mech, "Long ago, there was a land named Cyberulia. It was a land of mystery and wonder! Oh glory be, till one day fate decided that the land was to be cursed!" HotShot raised his hand as if he was in a classroom
"What?" Fairy asked
"I don't understand where this is going…" HotShot rubbed his head on confusion
"I'm sorry… again…" With a sigh Fairy started again, "Cyberulia was the land of the Elvin like people. With their ear pointed to the heavens. These peoples worshiped the goddesses of old. The people grew vain, and foolish. Eventually the goddesses cursed them with fowl waters and plagues. They had hoped that their long foretold of Hero of gold would come as in days of old, and they awaited the time when their hero would return…"
"And that hero didn't return, did he?" HotShot asked
"He did not. But now you are here, great hero!" Fairy said
"But I'm no hero." HotShot stated
"You are a hero, HotShot! I told you it is destiny!" Fairy was jumping for joy as she pointed to a window with an image of what looked like the red and yellow mech
"How do you know my name? Why does he look like me?" HotShot asked with his optics as wide as can be.
"Destiny, Hero! Please Cyberulia needs you!" Fairy pleaded, HotShot thought about thisI'm not a hero, they need Optimus if anything… but I can't just leave this Cyberulia… with a sigh HotShot considered his options and came to a decision.
"What needs done?" HotShot said not very pleased with this, but he went with it.
"Glory of the goddesses be praised, thank you!" Fairy then turned to the doors in the far side of the room, and with her light broke the seal on the doors.
"Follow me Hero!" Fairy then pushed the doors open and entered into the dark room HotShot followed Fairy into the room following her light that glimmered like a star. Fairy then stopped and turned to HotShot.
"This is the point in which your decision is critical. If you continue with this, you might not be able to return." Fairy gave off a sense of seriousness
"I've made my decision and I will stick to it," HotShot said and he looked back to Fairy, "What do you need me to do?"
"Fate shall take its course. Behind me is a sacred weapon known as the Saber Sword. Take it and with it your journey shall begin… I will not be able to assist you any further then here, good luck hero, and may fate lead are paths to meet again." Fairy stood there in silence and watched as HotShot walked past her. HotShot looked at the Saber Sword as it was stuck in a stone.HotShot you can still turn back… but those people need help, and I have made up my mind! With a swift movement HotShot grabbed the sword and pulled it out. A burst of light blinded HotShot leaving him standing in the now intensely bright room. HotShot felt the floor move out from under his feet and he fell to what seemed to his impending doom. After that the mecha fell unconscious…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Now~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looking around the area about him HotShot looked down to the Saber Sword,What have I gotten myself into?
