Chapter 103

Lori's jet shot through the sky. "Co-pilot seems to be working," she reported.

"Good," said one of the techs at Earthfall. "We have an inbound two miles out. Can you escort him?"

"Affirmative!" Lori said, angling her jet in the appropriate direction. Behind her, the other two F-22-S/A's followed suit. She smiled when she saw who the inbound was. "Hey! Galaxy Convoy! What are you doing?"

"Hello, Lori," the Soushireikan replied. "I'm here to watch the tests. Rodimus Convoy is also on standby on my orders."

Lori bit her lip, "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

"Coby's with him, just in case," Galaxy Convoy said. Lori decided to accept that.

"All units, we have a bogey inbound, right above you!"

"What?" Galaxy Convoy asked. His answer was four missiles that suddenly struck him from above, sending him spiraling downward.

"Evasive Action! Thunderwing Squadron, Scatter! Scatter!"

Lori hit the throttle, noticing a familiar purple streak following behind her, "I can't shake him!" she yelled, rolling to try and throw him off. Skywarp simply copied her maneuver, staying behind her.

Rodimus carefully helped Galaxy Convoy to his feet, "Are you all right?"

"I will be," Galaxy Convoy answered. "But I'm not sure about Lori. Go help her."

"Soushireikan…" Rodimus hesitated.

"Remember your symbol, Rodimus," Galaxy Convoy said. "I know I can count on you to do the right thing, even if others may think it's wrong. Lori knows she can count on you. I trust you Rodimus, she trusts you."

Rodimus seemed to stand a little taller as he nodded, "Understood, Soushireikan! TRANSFORM!" Galaxy Convoy took a moment to regain his breath before transforming and following. Both Convoy's fell behind Skywarp. "Why isn't he shooting at her?" Rodimus asked.

The reason was not lost on Galaxy Convoy, "He wants her alive."

Skywarp mentally grinned, Checkmate! He focused as hard as he could, knowing that he probably couldn't do this twice.

Lori's eyes widened as a Fire Space Warp Gate opened in front of her. "Pull up!" someone shouted, but it was already to late, as she was already passing through. Light and flame seemed to roar around her, and then she was out, flying over a large jungle.

"Lori, what's your status?" Galaxy Convoy asked.

Lori looked over her readouts, "I'm all right. It looks like Skywarp closed the gate right after we went through though."

"That's correct," Rodimus said. "Speaking of the little sneak, does anyone see him? Where is he?"

"More importantly," Lori said, looking around. "Where are we?"

Galaxy Convoy did a quick scan, recognizing some of the geological formations. "Animatros. We're on Animatros."

Next Time:

Galaxy Convoy: The Destron Army has gained control of Animatros. We have to help.

Flame Convoy: Any help that can be offered would be welcome.

Coby: But can anything help Lori?

Sonic Bomber: Hey! Hey! Who's the hot chick?
