User blog:Bzero/Alpha Trion – Rift in Spacetime

Alpha Trion appears on-screen in a report recorded in the Autobot City repair bay. He has a patched slash across his chest, and behind him you can see guards protecting the entrance to Wheeljack’s mechanical engineering lab. Without preamble, he records the following:

“Optimus Prime, I think it would be very imprudent to attempt to move Metroplex at this time. I’ve not yet ascertained exactly how the rift in spacetime has been anchored to its relative position – if it’s anchored to Metroplex’s wall, moving him may not cause damage, but if it’s anchored it its position above the Earth’s surface, moving Autobot City might endanger both its structure and its occupants.

“It would be unwise to allow the Decepticons to learn of our predicament, as right now Metroplex is relative helpless until this rift can be repaired. Worse than our strategic disadvantage, however, is the fact that fabric of spacetime in this area of the cosmos has been weakened by the frequent rifts and tears this planet has experienced. If we don’t seal this portal soon, other wormholes may open to Primus-knows where.

“I will continue to work on the problem, and try to repair the dimensional controller my counterpart constructed. Should Wheeljack return to the city, please refer him to me immediately. I could greatly use his expertise on this matter.”

Trion ends the transmission.
