Jackie was sitting down with Slayer at the Asgard's lot when some classmates showed up.
"Is that the dinosaur you found?" a girl asked.
"It looks fake," a boy poked Slayer's eye.
Slayer got up and growled.
"No," Jackie grabbed his lead rope and sprayed water in his face. "You can only eat serial killers, rapists, poachers, terrorists, and Brett."
"What did I ever do to you?" Brett called.
"You awoken the dragon!"
Slayer sat down, He did not want to awaken the dragon.
"Ooh! Here comes Prescott! Let's see how he screws up this time!" Jackie handed Slayer a slab of ribs and she ate a hot dog.
One teen got out his camera.
"Excuse me, has anyone seen our crew?" Professor Anna Baranova asked over the intercom.
The high schoolers laughed.
"Tell me you got that!"
"We're doomed!"
"I gotta text Brains so he can get here!" Jackie got out her phone.

"My legs don't want to move," Graham said as Cody and Boulder helped him into the suit.
"But aren't you excited?" Cody asked.
"Sure. In a terrified sort of way."
"Hey, I'm scared, too," K-9 said. "This is my first time into space."
"Come on, it's not that big a deal," Heatwave said.
"We've spent tons of time in space," Boulder said.
"Of course, we were in stasis, unaware of the many dangers outside the hull," Chase said.
"Good news is, once you're at zero gravity, you can't plummet back to earth," Blades said.
Graham groaned in fear.
"The Asgard is just an elevator. You go up, then down," Cody said.
"I get sick on see-saws," Graham said.
"Okay, son, it's time to go," Chief said as he held K-9's suit.
Graham tried to walk, but couldn't. "Can someone please give me a push?"
Chroma picked him up.
"Careful, Chroma!" Chase said. "Your ankle!"
"It's fine now."

The three males and Jackie (with her guardian's and school's permission) buckled in and got ready for launch.
"This is gonna be sweet!" Miko said to Raf and Jack as they watched Slayer.
Slayer started to growl at Huxley's hover camera.
"It's okay, it's just a camera," Jack said as he nervously patted the raptor's head.
"Jack, be careful!" Nurse June Darby shouted from where she stood with the Burnses.
Slayer's growling intensified as the camera moved to the Asgard.
"Oh, no you don't!" Jack tried to pin Slayer down, but the Dinobot took off with him still on!
Slayer accidentally threw off Jack when he attacked the camera, destroying it.
Jack hit his face on the pavement, broke his nose, and almost skidded under the Asgard.
Heatwave ran over and picked him up while Emerald handled Slayer.
The launch went off without a problem.
Huxley ran over to the team. "Is everyone okay? My camera was getting too close and I couldn't stop it!"
"The only injury is a busted nose," T.J. said.
"I'm never doing that again," Jack said.

Two astronauts on the International Space Station were playing chess and saw the Asgard's laser cable.
"Um, what's that?" The British asked the American.
"Probably some experiment from Griffin Rock," the American said.

"I can see the ISS from here!" Jackie said.
"I can't shake the feeling that I forgot something," Doc said. "I hope it isn't important."
"You hope?" Graham asked.
"Don't worry. I got two big ol' suitcases packed with food, water, medical supplies, gardening supplies, soda for your tummy, Graham, barf bags, smart phones and tablets with their chargers, fresh clothes, and I snuck a dairy goat into the agricultural pod," Jackie said.
"How and why?"
"One: I can be a ninja, and two: goat milk is easier on the human gut than cow milk."
"Graham, how are you feeling?" Doc asked.
"What's the technical term for air sickness in space?" Graham asked.
"'Space sickness'?" Jackie suggested as she gave him a barf bag from her suit.
"Don't worry," Doc said. "I suspect, the higher we go the better you'll-"
The Asgard jerked and alarms started going off.
"Hull breach warning!" Graham yelled.
"Dude, calm your mammieries," Jackie said.
"It's only the artificial gravity kicking in," Doc said.
"That felt like we're losing traction with the laser!" Graham said after another jerking.
"It's only turbulence, I think. It's turbulence, right?" Jackie asked.
"Yes, it's turbulence. Soon, the fun begins! A whole week of tests and research!" Doc said.
The Asgard stopped after five more minutes with a thud.
"What was that?" Graham asked.
"Cable termination lock," Doc said. "We're here. Jackie, you can start your video project."
Jackie got out an iPhone and turned on the selfie camera. "Hello, internet! I'm in space, courtesy of Griffin Rock's scientists and engineers. Doc, can you tell us how high up we are?" She handed the phone to Doc.
"We are connected by a laser cable to Griffin Rock, which is 140 miles below us, or 739,000 sandwiches stacked end to end," Doc said.
"That's pretty- merff! - uh, oh!" Graham got away from the window and threw up into the bag Jackie gave him.
"Good call on the air sick bags, Jackie," Doc said. "That's what I forgot."
"I'm going to give a tour in a little bit after I check on the agricultural pod," Jackie said to the camera before turning it off.

"Hey, guys, check this out! You can see the Asgard's laser cable with a telescope from here!" Miko said into her cell phone on top of Team Prime's base.
xxx
Frankie was at Cody's place, looking through the telescope.
The bots were talking about the humans and Maximal in space when...
"You never did a space rescue?!" First Aid exclaimed, earning shushes from the team.
"You are going to wake up the neighborhood!" Chase whispered.
"You'll make Frankie more worried!" Chroma whispered.
"We trained for ship-board rescues, but never got the chance to do one," Heatwave said.
"Which is good, I kinda, sorta flunked that part of the training," Blades said. "But I aced medicine."
Frankie gasped. "I see it! The Asgard!" She pulled up a holo-screen of the live feed from the telescope.
"Okay, does that laser go on forever?" Chroma asked sarcastically.
"Man, I wish I was up there!" Cody said.
"If you're not too tall to be an astronaut," First Aid said.
The antenna of Chroma's comm beeped and she activated her visor to read the message and her optics widened. "Tell Professor Baranova to get the Asgard down, ASAP! There's comet get close to it!"
"It isn't going to-"
Chroma cut Frankie off. "It's on course for asteroids!"
"Call Baranova! Call her now!" First Aid said before comming the whole team.

"These are Graham's pajammies," Jackie said to the camera as she put Graham's bone pajamas on his bed. "And they..." She turned off the lights. "GLOW IN THE DARK! Yes, ladies, he is single."
The immediate impact alarm went off.
"Oh, fuck! Gotta go!" Jackie ran to the main compartment after turning off the phone.
xxx
The team on the ground were in the bunker on conference call with Professor Baranova.
"They've lost the starboard pod, but the Asgard's interior pressure remains stable," Baranova said. "We're retracting the laser cable now."
"Have you reached them?" Chief asked.
"No. Their comm signals are down."
"Professor, how long will it take to get them?" Frankie asked.
"At least 30 days."
An alarm started blaring.
"Now what?" Kade asked.
Chroma and First Aid exchanged slight glances and Baranova confirmed their worries.
"Debris from the pod is coming for the island."
Chief turned to the team. "Cody, Frankie, go to the station and direct where that debris is falling."
xxx
"It looks like five pieces are going to hit the island," Frankie said.
"And we have seven Rescue Bots," Cody said in relief.
xxx
Chase, Chroma, Chief burns, and Ally arrived at the intersection.
Chase transformed and got out his Energizer.
"No, let me!" Chroma transformed and shot the debris... which blew up and little golf ball sized chunks went everywhere.
"Chroma! What the hell?!" Ally said as she ducked behind Chase's leg.
"That never happened before!"
xxx
Emerald hurried the hippos into the behind the scenes part of the enclosure while Boulder foamed the incoming debris with his Energizer.
Emerald then caught the foam ball and placed it out of the enclosure.
"I bet they'd thank us if they could," Boulder said as he looked at the hippos.
One wiggled it's ears and blinked.
"I bet that guy or girl just did," Emerald said.
xxx
Heatwave had slammed the debris into the water and was leaving the marina when he saw Chroma's attempt at halting the debris.
"Well, there's our next stop," Kade said.
xxx
First Aid transformed and used his electro-magnets to make a safety bubble above the drive-in.
"Are you sure this is going to work?" Blades asked.
"My gut says 50/50," First Aid said.
"Three, two, one... go!" Dani said.
Blades caught some debris in his claw.
"Spin hard!"
CLANG! BANG!
"Oh! Ugh!" First Aid fell as the other debris hit him in the face.
"Dude!" T.J. ran to him.
"You okay?" Raychel asked.
"Just my mask and visor. I'll live," First Aid said.

Cody answered a 911 call. "Griffin Rock emergency."
"Was the laser cable on the space station you blokes have important?" A British astronaut asked.
"Yes, it's the only way to move the space elevator up and down," Frankie said.
"Oh, well, THE BLOODY LASER LEFT WITHOUT IT!"
"It was knocked off when the asteroids hit it!" A cosmonaut said.
xxx
Brains was looking at the Twitter posts from the ISS about the Asgard. "So far, no one's dead.
Chief walked out of the space control center. "Looks like we're on our own."
"What do we do now?" Frankie asked.
"If we can't get a space ship, why don't we use our own?" Wheelie asked.
xxx
Jackie had gone dragon and carried the two scientists to the ag pod.
"Jackie, put us dow- AAH!" Graham said just as K-9 turned the artificial gravity back on.
Five minutes later, K-9 came in with all their stuff. "Guys, we're trending online!" He tossed Graham a smartphone.
"Sh-should we respond?" Graham asked.
xxx
Team Prime's humans and the two Maximals met the rescue team and Frankie in the Sigma's hanger, below the basketball court.
"Whoa! What's that?" Frankie asked.
"That's the Sigma, the ship the bots came to earth in," Cody said.
"And it can turn invisible!" Miko said.
"Heatwave, it is nonnegotiable that Mach and I assist with the transmutate," Slayer said.
"Understood," Heatwave nodded.
"Guys, look at who just posted with the '#SavetheAsgard'!" Raf turned his laptop to the team.
xxx
"Well, let's hope they know we're all right," Doc said. "Let's get some apples, I missed lunch and dinner."
Jackie saw small cracks on a window and started to go more dragon.
xxx
"Rescue Bots, rocket to the rescue!" Heatwave said.
Miko, June, and Cody got 'oh, crap!' looks on their faces as the Sigma took off.
Two minutes later, First Aid walked into the storage where they were. He let out a sigh and picked them up and took them to the others, who were quite surprised.
"Eh, we were bringing supplies when... We took off," Miko said.
"Who's going onto the Asgard, because now I'm going," June said.
"Guess I'm your space suit," Heatwave said.
xxx
"Oh, scrap!" K-9 noticed the cracks spreading. "There isn't any oxygen in the other pods and we'll all probably die!"
The Sigma came into view.
xxx
"The dome's cracking!" Blades said.
"K-9 may live with low oxygen, but not the others," Boulder said.
"Get us close, First Aid and I are getting on that thing," Heatwave said.
The two bots walked to the tether line.
"Ack! It's jammed!" Heatwave said.
"I can use my EMPs to get us inside and back! Let's go!" First Aid said.
The two bots jumped out of the ship and drifted to the Asgard, entered, and the artificial gravity kicked in.
"June, you need to stay in Heatwave. No oxygen," First Aid said.
xxx
Jackie was full-on earth dragon when the bots and June got in the pod.
"I'll handle Jackie," First Aid walked over to the dragon and tried to calm her down while the scientists, Maximal, and goat went inside Heatwave.
"Who brought the goat?" Heatwave asked.
"Jackie did," K-9 said.
The glass then broke, sucking out everything and everyone.
xxx
"Now what?!" Blades screamed. "We did NOT train for this! at least I didn't! I may have missed that day."
"Blades, you are so incompetent!" First Aid said.
"Jackie! Is she- you know?!" Emerald asked.
"She's transmutating again!" Miko pointed.
"First Aid! Vitals scan!" Lindsy ordered.
"She's all right! Sh-she's- an almost full Predicon!"
xxx
"We're adrift. I don't have any propulsion," Heatwave said.
"Jackie must have hit me when we were sucked out! My EMPs don't work!" First Aid said.
An aircraft flew to them and transformed.
"Need any help?" Air Raid asked.
"Yes. How did you know we were here?" Heatwave asked.
"Either Agent Fowler or Razor sends me out whenever the ISS live feed quits."
xxx
Jackie somewhat landed with the Sigma and Asgard on one of Griffin Rock's beaches.
Everyone exited the Sigma as the others showed up.
"Mom!" Jack hugged June. "Never pull a Miko again! Please!"
"I won't," June said.
"Graham! We were so worried!" Dani said.
"Okay, how do we explain this?" Miko pointed at both spacecraft.
Jackie splashed in the water to get the sand off of herself.
"Splash down," Chief said.
"It was nice to fly the ship again," Boulder said.
"I actually kinda prefer Terra firma," Chroma said.
"Earth?" Blades asked.
"Home," Heatwave said as they looked to the stars.
