"I know I've said it once but it's worth stating again," Briley said as they took a break after a couple hours of walking. "I hate sand."
"Sorry," Jazz apologized for the fifth time, causing Mikaela to snicker tiredly.
"This is pointless," Sam said with a heavy sigh. "Sorry guys. This is all my fault."
"It was worth a try," Briley said gently as Mikaela hugged her boyfriend and Bumblebee and Jazz nodded in agreement. That was when Skids and Mudflap started fighting over something stupid. Jazz jumped up to stop them but it was too late. They crashed through the side of a sand dune with a colossal crashing sound.
"Oh sweet Jesus," Briley said, staring in astonishment.
"Is that really..." Mikaela asked, trailing off halfway through the sentence.
"The tomb of the Primes?" Sam finished for her. "I think so. Nice work guys."
"For what?" Mudflap asked.
"For findin' da tomb bro," Skids replied, smacking his twin in the back of the helm. "We'z da best."
"Guys," Briley said, sounding exasperated. "Can we just concentrate on finding the matrix?"
"Yeah," Jazz said, pushing the twins aside.
"Hey Briley?" Mikaela asked as Sam and the others ducked inside the tomb. "Could you get ahold of Lennox somehow and ask him to bring Optimus' body here?"
"Sure thing," Briley said with a grin. "Now go help your boyfriend before he trips over something and face plants in an ancient tomb." Mikaela snickered and ducked into the tomb. "Hey Blast," Briley called to the surprisingly quiet phonebot.
"Is the scary one gone?" the little 'Bot asked.
"Yeah," Briley said, holding in a snicker. "Jetfire's gone. Can you get a signal?"
"Of course," Blast replied, sounding offended.
"I hoped so. Now can you call Sarah Lennox. I need to speak to here," Briley said.
"One minute," Blast said and then began humming elevator music until he found the correct number and dialed it, transforming so Briley could use him as a phone.
"Hello?" a voice asked.
"Hello Sarah this is Bri," Briley said. "I was just calling to talk to you about the trip and I was wondering if it was secure."
Sarah Lennox was a smart woman. She caught on to Briley's code right away. "I believe so but I'm not sure."
"Well I was researching Egypt and I came upon this old tomb. It's in the shadow of the pyramid and in its prime it was once beautiful," Briley continued.
"It sounds great," Sarah replied with fake enthusiasm. "When is it open."
"Just within the next couple of hours," Briley replied. "It's not open long but I've heard its real special and it has a revitalizing view."
"Alright. Got it," Sarah said. "I'll talk to Will about it. I've got to go Bri but I'll talk to you later." Then she hung up, leaving Briley grinning as Blast transformed again.
"Smart woman," the phonebot said.
"Yup," Briley said cheerfully. "Sarah Lennox is a very smart woman indeed."
