A/n. Sorry it took nine years. Enjoy! Remember to vote, comment, and follow.

Rock climbing is one of the best sports you have ever done. The desert is the best place for that too. With cliffs as high as mountains.

The sight is breathtaking. You can see miles, and miles of land. However there is a large metal box on the ground floor.

Curiosity kills the cat because you decide to investigate. Groaning you gather your gear, and pull your backpack back up.

Cellphone at 76% I'm good to go. You thought, I hate myself sometimes. You climb down the rocks to the ground for about 45 minutes straight.

Finally reaching the ground you brush off your pants then head to the metal box. Bigger than you expected you stop to examine it.

Oddly enough the box appears empty. You decide to step inside, and, take a closer look. The inside is kinda dark, so you turn on your flashlight.

There had been something inside because there are small scratches on the ground. Is this military? Why would there be a box in the middle of the desert?

There aren't any markings to identify the origin. Finding nothing you drink some water then return outside. The outside is the same dull grey color, but now markings either.

Something booms closer, and you scramble to flee. That sounds huge, and might be dangerous. Ducking behind a rock you peek out to see a large machine.

What looks like a machine, more like a robot actually. It's green, white, and has jet wing thingies. The machine is almost as tall as the box itself.

If it's military than it shouldn't hurt me. Maybe I can sneak away. You watch the machine a little longer to see if it saw you. You try to find some courage.

Squish is what happens if you go underfoot. There seems to be a sword on it's back, and a cannon on it's arm.

What was that acrion movie again? The one with the Jeagers. They were giant robots, but had people inside controling them.

You dash up some rocks, and start climbing away. The farther the better. A shadow suddenly appears above you.

You scream falling back down. You turn to flee in the other direction, but the robot picks you up. You continue screaming as you get balled up between it's hands.

"The screams of terror amuse me, but if you don't mind shutting up that would delight me."

You stop screaming long enough to freeze. That thing can talk! Panick floods as you leap from it's hands to tumble to the ground. You run again as the green robot walks to catch up.

He grabs you again.

"Silence."

You just sit there staring at the robot. Not too sure what to do you decide to at least ask. Nothing hurts to ask?
"What are you like an alien?" You mutter nervously. The robot glances down at you, and for a moment you believe you're going to die.

"That is correct. I am Skyquake from the planet Cybertron. I came in search of my brother Dredwing, and our Lord Megatron."
You stare at him not sure what to say next. You ask him about Lord Megatron.

"We are fighting a war here Fleshling. Our enemies known as the Autobots believe that we should spare your pathetic race. Personally I disagree."

Great. More people that want to kill us all.

Skyquake continues to talk, "Lord Megatron is the leader of the Decepticons. His strength is rivaled by Optimus Prime alone. No other can defeat him."

This Megatron character seems like an asshole.

Skyquake rambles on about the Decepticons, and how horrible the Autobota are. You're more concerned on how to get down, and escape.

It takes you a moment to realize now Skyquake has gone silent, so his blood red eyes now pierce your soul. You gulp glancing at his face for a second.

"Are you going to kill me?" You ask.

"That will be up to Lord Megatron" Skyquake answers as a swirling green vortex opens behind him.
