Transformers ROTB: Zarina's Prequel

7. Peru

Zarina rubbed her eyes and followed Noah and Elena outside the plane with the autobots behind them, they seemed to stop when they heard a car beeping from behind and it turned out to be another autoboot "wow! Wheeljack needs to fix that power steering" Mirage said "sorry I'm late! I was taking a harmonious moment between a serene butterfly and an unruffled caterpillar. Such tranquility" Wheeljack said "yo, yo, yo. Oye, papo, where you from?" Noah asked "Cybertron" Wheeljack said "so where'd you get that accent?" Noah asked "accent? what accent?" Wheeljack asked "that one!" Zarina asked "Zarina, be nice" Optimus said above Zarina "sorry!" she said "anyways... the mission. Follow me" Wheeljack said.

They all walked towards a hillside where they saw a city in Peru and heard Airazor screeching "okay, you guys. Check this out. The coordinates you gave me correspond to an old church, take a look" Wheeljack said "that's Santo Domingo, the Spanish built it on top of an old Inca temple" Elena said "correcto. I picked up some residual energy readings around the courtyard, so I'm guessing the key's somewhere close by. But we may have some trouble getting there. Inti Raymi. It's a festival that shuts down the whole city" Wheeljack said "guess it's a night mission then" Mirage said "no. Scourge could already be here. We must retrieve the other half before he does" Optimus objected "me, Elena and Zarina will do it" Noah said "what?" Zarina said "y'all would never make it two blocks" Noah said "there's human security all around the church. You'll never get through" Noah said "then we'll have to take a play out of your book. We'll hide in plain sight. We'll blend in with the parade" Noah said "it is not a bad idea. We will keep an eye out for the Terrorcons. On first sign of trouble, we are going in" Optimus said "yo, Noah, think fast. And if you need help, just holler" Mirage said tossing an armoured glove to Noah which turned into a weapon.

Zarina, Elena and Noah managed to sneak by the crowd and security to get inside the church and to find the key, they managed to reach a circle and tempered with it until the circle was matched and opened until it was a deep hole so they climbed down until they were in an unknown cave "you know, we must be the first people to walk here in half a millennium" Elena said "no kidding" Zarina said "I think that's the temple" Elena said as they saw an old abandoned temple across their way.

They entered the temple and walked around until they found an object with a cybertronian symbol on it, they decided to push it to see if the key was inside "are you even pushing?" Elena asked "yeah, I'm pushing" Noah grunted before the stone object was opened but nothing was inside "where is it?" Zarina asked "sometimes there's just a false bottom or something" Elena said brushing dust off which revealed a symbol "look, I think I found something. You see these symbols? I've seen markings like this-- on the Airazor statue at my museum. They're new. They're not on the transwarp key" Elena said "there's two of them" Noah said brushing all the dust away but the door suddenly closed and it was silent for a moment when Elena was writing the symbols on her hand as a note but Noah heard something on the wall behind Elena and it was a terrorcon creature that had come to hunt them down and kill them "run!" Noah shouted as they started running.
