Chapter 3 New World and New Rides
It has been past a hundred years since the end of the Cybertronian War between the Autobots and the Decepticons. In these past many years the world has come to know of Cybertron and what all the Autobots did to save their world from total devastation. Marked in the history books as heroes and Optimus Prime as a martyr after receiving word of his death and how it occurred.
Due to this Cybertron and Earth have become allies in a growing stage on the Intergalactic scale but those are more recent events. Anyway, humanity has come a long way since than and their technologies have advance further than ever expected. With the aid of Cybertron in the trade of tech for Energon that is on the world, humanity has gained a further connections with each other due to groundbridges and as well as human health as many cures were found with the help of Cybertron tech. The way were drive around is different, like Cybertronians, humans have accuse to hovering cars, as well as advancements in city planning and home living.
The cities are more advanced than ever, with similar qualities to Cybertronian Cities but keeping a certain Earth aesthetic to it. As well the planet itself has benefited as we stopped most if not all pollution of the air and sea. Colonies from Cybertron have also been set up with three on the planet and one large one on the Moon. As well as having Human colonies on Cybertron and across the solar system as humanity slowly crawls it's way out of it's isolation.
In the hundred years of the end of the Great War, Earth has experienced peace and prosperity. But war is inevitable, fifty years prior a war broke out between a hostile alien race called the Quintessons and Earth. At first they didn't call aid upon Cybertron but as the Quintessons began making plans to use a doomsday device on the planet, they asked aid from there allies. Being mortal enemies of the Quintessons, the Cybertronians came to the aid of Humanity and since then have maintained peace, and if the need should ever arise, each other has their back.
Soon after, twenty years after Miko Nakadai death, Canada and the United States decided to come together to create a new country in hopes of strengthening both countries as both Peacekeepers and protectors of Earth. Thus Ameranda was born and has been the leading force in Interstellar communications as the World decided that they would represent them.
Now you maybe wondering what ever happened to the rest of Team Prime after Prime's death? Well to give you a brief history, and of Cybertron. Cybertron was rebuilt as a Republic and has remained that way with an elected council by the people. Ultra Magnus is the current High Protector in the Council, Bulkhead is helping with reconstruction as not the whole planet is restored, about 90% of it is restored. Arcee along with Bumblebee, Knockout and Smokescreen became Advisers to the Council if need be, and Ratchet has become a Ambassador to Earth from Cybertron. Wheeljack became a bounty hunter and looks for loss 'Cons that need to face the drums.
With all that said and done, let us return to the Heralds of the Balance as they discover civilization in the form of a Newly built Jasper, Nevada.
The Heralds couldn't believe what they were seeing, where Jasper, Nevada once lay, a small town turned to ruin was rebuilt as a sprawling metallic city. Similar yet different to ones on Cybertron to Apollo and Artemis's memory. They saw highways of different levels going high into the sky, with cars that hovered on the road instead of touching it. They could see buildings labeled as Groundbridge terminals, they could see people walking, hover boarding and having a grand time on the ground levels.
But what shocked them the most was to see Cybertronians and Humans interacting with one another like it was a daily occurrence. The sun had completely set but the city still gleamed in the night.
Sonicboom spoke first, "Wow, humans and Cybertronians, together. Guess they finally let the secret out which means we don't have to hide." He noticed that Cinder was looking up in awe. "What is it Cinder?"
She pointed up and they followed her gaze to see a large metallic city on the moon, it gleamed like the one hear by with glowing yellow and blues coming off it. It covered half of the entire moon.
"Amazing, we gotta get a history textbook to tell us how this all happened!" Apollo gawked at the Moon.
"It will have to wait, we still need alternate forms." Artemis said, a few cars past by and after three hours they found what they were looking for. Artemis has a hover car Lamborghini, Apollo got a very Cybertronian looking fighter jet and Sonicboom went for a heavy duty hover truck. Cinder shifted into her Predacon form of a Japanese dragon, she floated in the air before swirling around and above the new alt modes.
"Now we should find a place to rest." Apollo said before Sonic said.
"But we don't have money or whatever they have now." They thought for a moment.
"Wait," Cinder said transforming back, "Can't we sleep in our Alt forms? Just go somewhere safe and comfortable and power down." She said as they agreed to the plane, they found a nice dark alley and not trusting the new city, took watches throughout the night.
