Cole groaned, sand falling from his hair. Wait. Sand? He blinked, and pushed himself up, gazing at the desert around him. "Where am I? Wait- Where's everyone else?" Standing up, he looked around. "LLOYD! NYA! KAI!" He yelled, climbing up a dune. "Over here!" Jay yelled at the other side of the dune. Cole slid down.
"Are you guys okay?" Lloyd asked, looking at his team with concern. "Yeah, nothing but a back ache." Kai stretched. "Where are we anyways?" Nya asked. "I'm unsure, but we should probably look for some sort of town." Zane suggested, pointing in a random direction.
"Yeah." " Sure. " "Good plan Zane!" They all spoke, and followed Zane as he traversed in the direction he pointed.

"Uugghh.. How much longer do we have to walk?" Kai asked, wiping his forehead. "Kai, I told you this already, I am unsure when we will find a to-" Zane started, "Rhetorical question." Kai groaned.
"Hey guys! Look!" Jay was up ahead, and was on the side of a long highway. "Great! There's a roadsign over there." Cole pointed to a sign that said 'JASPER - 5 KM' "Well, hitch hiking it is." Nya muttered, while everyone travelled alongside the road.
"Jasper does not match any town in my database. Perhaps we are.. In a different realm?" Zane asked. "Maybe Zane, if so, that guy back there has a powerful weapon. In the wrong hands it could be devastating." Lloyd muttered.
"Well, we better find a way back, and quick."

By the time the ninja found the town of Jasper, they were tired and sweaty. Except for Zane.
"Woo! We made it.." Jay exclaimed exhaustively. The ninja managed to walk to a bench, where they all sat, exhausted. "Can we make sure we never have to walk through a desert?" Kai sighed. " I'm starving. " Cole complained. "Maybe we can scrounge up some money." Lloyd mumbled.

"Optimus, there's an energy signature 5 kilometres West from Jasper. It's of unknown origin." Ratchet turned to their leader, Optimus Prime, who was standing next to him at the console. He hummed. "Arcee, Bumblebee, you go check out that energy signature. Be on guard, it may be of Decepticon origin." Optimus looked at the two, and nodded to Ratchet.
"Open a ground bridge."
