The crashland on Mars did not go unnoticed by the natives. Sensing technology they slowly amassed to surround the downed ReGHOST to claim it as their own, flashes of metal fused into their unholy bodies as they began their death march.

The Planet Junkacon

Jace Dager after awakening on this far away planet found his Mecha being strapped to a rocket by the indigenous sentient beings.
Their leader Wreck Gar had his hand on a switch which Deger assumed controlled the rocket.

“Please don’t….do this!” Jace whimpered

Wreck Gar seemed to not even notice his pleas for mercy from his cockpit

“10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 Rangers in space!” Wreck Gar announced as he pressed the button
The Junkacons began singing with him

“Blast controls to outer space now, flying higher than ever before, ranger In space! Go power rangers go power rangers go power rangers ,go go go fly! Go power Rangers go Power rangers ehhhhh in space!”
The White Emperor was sent flying into the sky and into the atmosphere.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!” Jace screamed in terror as the rocket blasted off to god knows where.

The ReGHOST, miraculously still functional after re-entry, begins pushing itself up from the ground as it stares at the oncoming creatures.

"...Fuck."

The Astray picks itself up, and attempts to make a break for it while turning invisible in the process. The fires of Mar's limited atmosphere had thankfully kept the damage to the ReGHOST to a minimum, but it's Mirage Colloid Virus spreader was temporarily useless to him. Holding out his axe, Aaron attempted to bail for the nearest man-made looking structure he could find in an attempt to gain his bearings.

Mars Orbit

Giest and his team prepared to follow the fugitive's last known location.

Apparently it was rife with hostile lifeforms transformed by an alien device.

He relished the challenge.

Boringverse

The scenery gave way to a giant man made dome, grey and looming. Aaron sought out a door, any sort of entrance in order to better hide from any potential pursuers.

San Francisco

In the ruins of the city a warp opened up in the fabric of space time, allowing a 30 meter tall mech to step through.

Its pilots name was Tara Frayer, the nanotech infused pilot, and now Herald of Unicron.

She approached the epicenter of the colony drop that devastated the city and began to glow with a primordial power.

Tara shot a bolt of energy at the wreckage and the remains of the SIM and its wayward pilot.

The pilot and machine combined and took the form of a bluish green robotic sloth.

Lux was astonished by this massive change but she quickly forgot as she noticed she was alive once more.

“Whoa, cool”

“Hi I’m Tara, welcome to the Heralds of Unicron!”

“I’m a herald of a Unicorn?”

“No silly Unicron, the Chaos bringer. Lord of the Dark Gods. Here this is the job description here, I have no idea how he wrote it but you know gods are and all. I’m still amazed at how I managed to become a prophet after that time I accidentally tore off some of Tigerhawk-oh I mean Razorclaw’s feather’s-” Tara continued to blather.

While she jabbered on her mech handed Lux a piece of notebook paper.

“Look she’s going to be on this for a while so I’ll just give it to you” Kasumi said

“Yes” Lux replied after reading.

“Okay Tara mission accomplished lets go.”

“But I didn't get to finish!”

“Tell it later”

The mech and the Sloth took to the skies.

Tara and Lux emerge out in space only to encounter the incredibly rare Space Mountain Phenomenon. Death happens inmediately afterward.

"Where the hell is this place?" Lance asked himself while looking around after waking up in the middle of the crowded city "Captain,doesn't that wormhole look like a jawbreaker? we should check it out she says.It's fucking round, so it must be a Jawbreaker.The shittiest logic I have ever come across. Dumb bitch. When I get back she's going up for auction." Lance said shaking his fist in anger

."Where the hell is the rest of the crew? why the hell am I the only one here?, ah it doesn't matter, I'll just have to have a look around".

A bypasser bumps into Lance while he's monologing to himself. The stranger turns and shouts at Lance in a language unknown to him. Lance doesn't know why, but he feels insulted by what the man says even though he can't understand it.

In that instant Lance believed the man, no, the people around him needed to be taught a lesson. The man who had walked on, almost 10 meters away was now wondering why everyone around him was so much taller. He looked down and realized he was missing his legs. Before the stranger could scream Lance had come up behind him.

"You little shit. You dare disrespect me? Do you know who I am? fools like you need to be taught a lesson in manners. Maybe some refreshment will sweeten you up." On the side of Lance appeared a hose. Lance covered the mans nose and as the man struggled for breath opening his mouth,

Lance shoved the hose down his throat."How are you enjoying it? pretty sweet huh? you want more? I'll give you all you want" Lance shouted as he began to cackle.

The mans face had began to turn blue, even so, Lance didn't stop. He turned the pressure on the hose up even higher. After a few second purple fluid began to leak from the mans ears,nose and eyes. "3.2.1 aaaand there" Lance said letting the man go as he fell to the ground dead.

"That should be enough to last you through this life and the next. Now who else wants some?" The people around looked at the scene and continued about there daily lives as if it didn't happen.

Lance was befuddled. Normally when someone was killed in front of others the people freaked out and ran scared. "I think I might like this place" he said with a smirk.

As Lance continued to walk he came across a parking space, there was a motorcycle with no owner in sight and keys still in the ignition.

Carbombya: The Spider's Cave

Tarantulas instinctively shielded his head from Rastun's blindside barrage. This reaction didn't last long and he prepared to retaliate against the Astafanel. Fortunately Megatron had an idea after seeing the structural damage to the cave. With the spider distracted he overcharged his shoulder mounted cannon. This was going to burn it out but he couldn't resist this idea. Both Tarantulas' and Megatron's attacks finished charging simultaneously and right as Unicron's spawn launched his assault Megatron fired. The glow from the approaching beam drawing the spiders attention.

"What the..."

Before he could finish another though the oversized beam hit its mark sending him flying across the cave and slamming him into the wall. The explosion shaking lose several large rocks in various places. Grinning Megatron activated his wrist mounted blaster and fired upon a rather large bolder above Tarantulas completely dislodging it. Looking up to see the large rock falling towards him the spider could only groan in annoyance as it landed on its mark.

"And that is how you deal with a really annoying bug." The Predacon gloated. "And just like old times to boot."

Intrigued by this statement Brainwave inquired. "Are you saying you regularly used boulders as weapons? That seems awfully primitive... Even for you."

Megatron's expression soured. "See that's the problem with you Transtechs, you think technology is the answer to everything so you overlook far simpler solutions."

"Interesting theory but giant rocks aren't going to stop Unicron." The Transtech countered.

Thanks to Megatron's attack, the spider's blasts missed their mark by a rather wide margin. Not wanting to be caught off guard, Rastun still didn't turn his back on the now buried arachnid. He still kept his weapons pointed at him and entertained the thought of collapsing the entire cave just to make sure, but after a few seconds, he relaxed and the thought passed. If he suddenly bursts out of the rock for a sneak attack, Rastun can rely on his now available time dilation to get out of harm's way.

Brainwave's mention of Unicron reminded Rastun that he has to read the file that was sent to him in its entirety. It had data on not only Unicron himself, but on some of his followers as well, the latter of which he still has yet to glance at. This information must be shared with the Overseer heads too, once Rastun gets back into his own timeline. High Command mentioned spacetime fluctuating in a way that makes communication temporarily possible from this timestream, but so far, there is no indication of that happening. The Overseers have somehow compensated for the Post-Slam timeline's unstable nature, making communication with their agents possible, no matter what era they're in for that particular timestream. However, Post-Slam to Pre-Slam communication and vice versa is still impossible for them.

On more current issues, there is still the matter of figuring out what exactly will cause the Slam in the first place. Preventing it may not be possible, but perhaps steps towards a solution can be gained if the cause is known.

Brainwave reflected on how the mission was going so far as the group met up.

"So today was an interesting day. Found out the threat is far bigger than initially assumed, got jumped by a bunch of shoes, walking buildings. And holy crap how did you get out from under that rock so fast?"

Everyone turned to see their increasingly annoying adversary standing next to the fallen boulder.

"I'm going to leave you wondering that. Nice of you to all cluster up though, I was waiting for that!"

As Tarantulas prepared another attack a booming voice interrupted him.

"Tarantulas, enough! We've spent too much effort defending this worthless shit hole. It's time to quit wasting time here." A mysterious projection appeared delivering new orders. He clearly wasn't happen about this turn of events.

"You can't be serious. These idiots are going to continue to try to stop us. Better to kill them now!"

His boss however wasn't interested in his reasoning.

"I don't care. It's already too late to stop it. Wasting time on them is wasting time better spent elsewhere. I have a far more important mission for you than these 3 insects. Now come, it's time to hunt the Vok once again."

With that the spider stopped complaining understanding what his superior meant. "Alright then, time to destroy them once and for all. But what about Sideways? He went AWOL on me."

"Don't worry Tarantulas, one does not walk away from the cause. We will find another way to make use of him." And with that the projection disappeared and a portal opened.

"You know, he said I had to stop fighting. He didn't say I couldn't collapse the cave!" And with that the arachnid fired at a weak point in the ceiling triggering a collapse. "You could follow me to certain death or you could try to run for it. Have fun either way." Waling through the portal he left his adversaries to their fate.

"Oh shit, he still has my space bridge jammed." Brainwave quickly discovered. "I don't suggest that portal, the mysterious individual was likely The Fallen. Probably best to run for it."

As Lance continued to walk he came across a parking space, there was a motorcycle with no owner in sight and keys still in the ignition.

Looking at the Motocycle he was filled with disgust. "Primitive machine. It doesn't even have a cup holder. It doesn't even look like it can fly. What kind of vehicle can't fly? all of these peasants strolling around on the ground like the trash they are. I don't even feel like walking anymore". Lance held up a cup in the air and out of thin air a hose appeared filling his cup. Extending his pinky he sipped from the cup." No class trash." He began to levitate holding his cup in his hand and drinking away. He took one last look at the vehicle before smirking and continuing on about his business.

Rastun agrees with Brainwave and immediately speeds out towards the cave's exit. He dodges the falling stalactites in his way while maintaining his fastest possible speed. After several minutes of constant evasion, he finally makes it out of the cavern. As for his two acquaintances, Rastun assumes they're right behind him. They should be fast enough to escape a cave-in and he doubted they'd want to suffer the indignity of being literally carried by him. Presumably, there's nothing left in Carbombya worth investigating. Leaving this nonsensical nation can only be a positive step towards their goal.

Suddenly the Motorcycle changed shape into a giant robot in response to the insults.

"Who the fuck are you calling primitive you sugar saturated fleshsack?!" it shouted back while readying a weapon.

It was Sideways, Herald of Unicron and denizen of planet X. And he was not amused with this diabetic ass raining on his vacation.

"Ugh" Lance said spitting out his drink in disgust. "You have got to be the ugliest thing I've run into in my travels. Your mother must have been awfully disappointed when she gave birth to you. I'm guessing she never attended any of your parent teacher conferences or picked you up from school? I know I wouldn't want to claim anything as ugly as you.And that barbaric weapon, Tell me fool are you planning to cut my grass? or cut down some trees?" Lance stopped his insults in the middle with a startled look on his face. He looked back at the transformers and asked him "Perhaps you couldn't find any work? is that why you're trying to mug me? I know this place called Shanghai doesn't have many trees around. pffffft ahahahahahahahaha, isn't this pathetic? the fool probably lost his job and now he's trying to take my belongings? That's rich. Tell you what, since I'm feeling sorry about your desperate situation, I'll let you keep your life for today, but don't ever show your ugly face in front of me again"

Using the eye of Balor Lance proceeds to seemingly vanish into thin air leaving no trace of himself behind
