RACE TO THE KEY, PART 1
JAZZ: (Narration) Never in my life have I been one to question the orders Optimus Prime gave me. As one of his top lieutenants, it was rarely in my place to question him. And thankfully, it never crossed my mind once to do so... .
SWERVE: Are we there yet?
JAZZ: (Narration) Until now.
SWERVE: Are we there yet?
JAZZ: Almost, Swerve.
HOT ROD: Man! How long have we been waiting?! Six megacycles?!
JAZZ (?): Try seven...
JAZZ: (Narration) Why wasn't I given less annoying crewmen?
SWERVE: I'm gonna sing that song everyone hates!
(They finally arrive on Velocitron)
JAZZ: Alright, fellas. Here we are! Now remember what--
HOT ROD: We know. "No racing unless necessary."
JAZZ: Good. Glad to see some of you still have audio receivers.
GREETER: Hello and welcome to Velocitron!
JAZZ: Uh...
GREETER: We have races! We have championships! You can visit the River of Tracks! You can race in the Speedia 500!
JAZZ: Er... Actually, we're searching for a Matrix shard...
GREETER: Oh... I've never heard of that. Well anyway, here's a map of the planet. Have a nice day!
JAZZ: ...It's all roads.
SWERVE: Awesome!
(Meanwhile)
MOTORMASTER: (Narration) I've always been one to question orders. No matter whoever was in charge. Megatron, Starscream, it matters not. Whoever is in charge, I will question their leadership. And I will keep on doing so until I'm in charge.
DEAD END: Motormaster, we've arrived.
MOTORMASTER: Good. I'm sure the Autobots are already there.
BREAKDOWN: There's an empty spaceport, sir. Shall we land?
MOTORMASTER: Yes.
(They land as two natives sneak up)
GASKET: Heh, let's get a fight out of these losers!
CRUMPLEZONE: Heh!
GASKET: Alright, stick 'em up, ya guzzlers-- (Motormaster grabs him by the neck)
MOTORMASTER: Care to repeat that?
GASKET: Urk!
(Breakdown zaps Crumplezone)
MOTORMASTER: Well? What are you waiting for? Aren't you going to properly greet me?
(Meanwhile)
SWERVE: Okay, so how are we gonna find the shard?
JAZZ: How the heck am I supposed to know? This planet is all roads, Swerve! For all we know, the shard could just be stuck in a pothole!
SWERVE: Heh... that would be pretty funny. A Matrix shard in a pothole...
WINDCHARGER: Guys! Look up ahead!
SWERVE: Sweet.
HIGHTAIL: Come one, come all to the Speedia 500!
JAZZ: Okay, that's nice and all, but we don't have time to--
SWERVE: Last one at the finish line is rotten!
JAZZ: --race... (Narration) Primus, why me?
HIGHTAIL: Yes, come one, come all to--
SWERVE: Hey! HEY!
HIGHTAIL: What?
SWERVE: Can I take part in the Speedia?
HIGHTAIL: Are you a Velocitronian?
SWERVE: Uh, no...
HIGHTAIL: Then no.
SWERVE: Dang.
JAZZ: Well, we don't have time anyway. We're here to find the Matrix shard and save Cybertron! So let's go!
HIGHTAIL: Matrix shard...? Um, excuse me... but I think I know someone who can help you.
BLURR: Really?
JAZZ: Thank Primus.
HIGHTAIL: Yes, there's a bot in these parts called Brakedown. He knows a lot about Velocitron's history. He could hep you find what you're looking for.
(Meanwhile)
MOTORMASTER: Now tell me, Gasket... where is the Matrix shard?
GASKET: Okay, first of all, I have no idea what a Matrix shard is. And secondly, my name is Ransack, not Gasket.
MOTORMASTER: As far as I'm concerned, you're nothing but a loose gasket. And more importantly, there's already a Transformer named Ransack. But I suppose I can't blame you for not knowing what a Matrix shard is. However... I may still have use for a guide around this planet.
GASKET: Well, there's not a whole lot to it. Velocitron's just a buncha' roads...
MOTORMASTER: But surely this planet must have a history to explain how it became a colony.
GASKET: Okay, okay, but I'm not a history person! But I know someone who is.
MOTORMASTER: His name?
GASKET: Brakedown.
(Elsewhere)
JAZZ: Well, this is where Hightail said Brakedown lived...
SWERVE: HEY! YO! ANYONE HERE?! Well, no one here. Let's go--
JAZZ: Shut up. Brakedown? Are you here? Hellooo... If you're not here then I guess we'll be going... (He gets caught in some crosshairs and he notices a red light pointing at him) What the...? (He spins around and fires his gun)
(A headless Velocitronian falls to the ground)
HOT ROD: What.
WINDCHARGER: Was.
SWERVE: That?
DIRT BOSS: I think it's pretty easy to understand... a trap!
