This was a bit like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands, but then again, it wasn’t as if he had any better hopes, or clues, as to how to find any other Autobots planet-side. And that was if there were any Autobots planetside. With his luck, he’d run into Megatron and a couple of warships before he even found someone he could get directions fr—
There was something on the road.
Smoke plumed around his tires as he hit the brakes and tried his level best not to go spinning out of control. The idle thought of transforming had been just that – idle. He wasn’t about to risk being seen planet-side when he did know the first thing about said planet, or the locals! Or their attitudes. Or their guns. All of which left him fish-tailing down from somewhere near the 140 mph mark in a very small distance, leaving black welts on the road behind him, and cussing in ways that would have made Wildcard proud.
The low, jutting bottom lip of his front fender was practically kissing the road when he finally came to a stop. It tilted upward minutely as his forward momentum bled away. The local lifeform standing less than a breath from it was giving the Autobot-in-disguise a long, placid, entirely unintelligent look… but only until he stopped. When the front end tilted to a stop, it immediately took offense to this and butted a heavy head with equally heavy horns on it before cantering off.
Rook really had nothing he could say to that. In his list of things to achieve planet-side, getting told off by what a quick search told him was a sheep had been nowhere near the top.
“Oh, I hate this place already”, he told the vast emptiness. “Where the slag is everyone?”
