Transformers: Another Life

It was standard day on Cybertron, Shortstop walked with Brainstorm, Perceptor, and Silverbolt. Éclair sat on Shortstop's left shoulder. They walked down the walk way right outside of Iacon.

"So, the last time I played football with the Dinobots," Shortstop said. "I spent four hours in Rachet's Medical Bay.

"What happened?" Silverbolt asked.

"I was running with the football and Snarl came out of no where and whacked me with his tail and I flew right into Sludge who decided to…"

At that moment, the ground shook causing the Autobots to stumble. Éclair fell off of Shortstop's shoulder. She flipped and landed on her feet. They saw smoke rising from behind a building. They all ran towards the smoke. Moments later they arrived. To their surprise it was a metallic silver sphere that had crashed into Cybertron's metallic's crust. Silverbolt lifted his arm and opened his comm. link.

"Optimus Prime, report to Sector 09-A at once." Silverbolt said.

A few moments later, Optimus Prime, Ironhide and Prowl arrived.

They transformed into their robot modes and stood next to the Autobots who found the mysterious object.

"Perceptor." Optimus Prime said.

Perceptor transformed into his microscope form and scanned the object.

"It appears to be a probe of some kind... but there is no record of this shape or design. The probe is composed of paricium and talgonite a ceramic alloy. The probe is emitting an unusual particle stream." Perceptor reported.

"Autobots, be cautious." Optimus warned.

The probe flared briefly. Shortstop stumbled back as though he was struck. He began to fall and lose consciousness. Brainstorm and Silverbolt rushed to catch him. They caught him before he hit the ground. They slowly laid him on the ground. Silverbolt's hand supported Shortstop's head. Shortstop's eyes flickered off.

Inside, Dustin could see Silverbolt and Éclair's face before the headmaster's eyes flickered off. Then Dustin's own eyes closed.

Dustin awoke. He slowly looked around and realized he was in his in his room. The sun's rays shone through the window and illuminated the room. He closed his eyes trying to remember how he got there. The last thing he remembered was the object landing on Cybertron. He yawned. Then an arm flew over him.

"Hey, honey." The voice said.

Dustin immediately recognized the voice and it wasn't Éclair's. He looked over and saw the last person who he never expected. Sarah.
