A weird adventure
Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers Prime or the live action Transformers films' rights. I only own my OCs Peaches, Abby and Crystal.
It was a normal day at NEST base. Peaches as of right now was on break and once again, sitting on the beach with her family: her sparkmate, the ex-Decepticon Sideways, given a 2nd chance at life and changed for the better. Then Abby, the almost 6 month old human infant who had started to crawl just recently and then her sister Crystal, the sparkling who was almost 3 months old and growing up just slightly faster than her adopted sibling.
"Beautiful day isn't it?" Peaches asked.
"Yes it is." Sideways replied, smiling at the femme who had been his first and only love. He wasn't worried about what would happen to her; she could handle herself. Sure, Wheeljack was doing an experiment today but he was being watched by Perceptor. That was nothing to worry about until the wind seemed to start blowing in one direction and flashes of blue light appeared.
"What the pit is Wheeljack doing?" Peaches wondered. The orange and red femme then got up, put down the 2 girls so that they could play in the sand and then started walking towards Wheeljack's laboratory. She was about halfway there when she was engulfed in light; she disappeared without a trace.
"Peaches!" Sideways shouted in alarm. He immediately picked up Abby and Crystal and ran in that same direction, as did Bumblebee.
Wheeljack at this time was muttering "Whoops, got to get that fixed."
That was when Sideways and Bumblebee both forced the door open, the former still clinging to his kids, and started glaring.
'"You've got some 'splainin' to do."' Bumblebee played over his radio.
"Okay, what happened to Peaches?" Sideways demanded to know. "She better be online..."
(Transformers Prime universe)
Peaches landed near a road, seemingly out in the middle of nowhere. She quickly turned into her human form; she was dressed in her civilian clothes that were orange and red all over. She then stood up. Where could she be? The Pretender couldn't figure it out but knew it wasn't anywhere she had been before. She started walking along the side of a road, and waved to a passing yellow car that had a 12 year old boy with glasses in the front seat.
"Hey kid, can you tell me a bit about where I am? I got lost and don't have a map or GPS on hand at the moment." Peaches explained as the car stopped and the passenger window rolled down.
"You're in Nevada and the nearest town's Jasper; it's the opposite direction from where I'm going. You can get there in about 20 minutes walking." the boy explained.
"Thanks." Peaches replied. "By the way, my name's Paige but you can call me Peaches."
"I'm Raf; nice meeting you." the preteen replied.
"You too!" the Pretender called back, as she started walking in the opposite direction.
She soon walked into the town of Jasper, Nevada. Peaches didn't want any food since she wasn't that hungry but there was a gas station and she was debating whether to stop there to use the restroom or not; being a Pretender, she did not have to do the bodily functions that real humans did but often did so anyways as that was easier than getting a systems flush from Ratchet once every couple of months; that was especially true when she was running low on energon.
Peaches went in, used the bathroom, came out of there and bought 2 pieces of Ring Pop and a bottle of water, then walked back outside just in time to see an unusual car drive past her and then a motorcycle. There were no drivers, so they had to be either Autobots or Decepticons. Letting her curiousity get the better of her, she ran after them, not aware of what she would find.
(Meanwhile back in the movie universe)
The other Autobots and the humans on the NEST team had soon found out what was going on. Optimus Prime had to convince Sideways to not be so hard on Wheeljack. "He has not realized how dangerous teleportation experiments can be."
"No slag Sherlock." Sideways growled. "Peaches is missing and if he doesn't find her, I'll do it myself."
"And how are you going to do that if you don't know where she is?" the Autobot leader asked.
"Good question." Sideways sighed sadly.
"Well, there's a number of places she could have wound up." Wheeljack explained. "I don't know how to exactly find out where she is."
"I believe Optimus can assist with that." Elita said smiling.
"Wait, what do you mean?" Sideways asked in surprise, nearly dropping Abby and Crystal.
"Technically, I should not be telling you this but before Same revived me during the battle in Egypt, three of the original members of the Dynasty of Primes informed me of something that shocked even me; there are other universes, some of which with their own Autobots and Decepticos." Optimus Prime explained. "I can only hope that Peaches will be recognized as an ally if she wound up in a universe with other Cybertronians."
"Wait a minute, do all of us have counterparts? How are we going to get anywhere with finding Peaches in the first place? And who is going to go and rescue her if she needs it?" Jolt asked.
Optimus Prime looked away from the blue mech and sighed. He wasn't sure how to answer that but he did know that whatever happened, Peaches could handle herself and that if she had wound in in an alternate universe with Cybertronians in it, she would seek out any Autobots to assist her and possibly, she'd assist them. Primus, please keep her safe, the Autobot leader thought to himself as he tried to come up with a good plan...
