In the desolate plains of Nevada, nothing moves..
Plain blank empty areas of open land stretch for miles with the odd rare mountain intruding on it's landscape, one such mountain, Mount Kinsley now serving as a base of operations for the military around the crash site of the Ark III that plummetted into the mountain over 50 years ago..
The Only place were life seemily does seem active as huge security fences with barbed wire, survalliance cameras armed with lasers and around the clock military guard like any US army base fill the area. In 50 years, it's become more of a base camp that the regular kinds with jeeps, Heavily aroumred tanks, HK flyers, and regular HK a$$ault vehicles, all to protect the research inside, and the techonolgy....
The technology of THE TRANSFORMERS....

In the distance, a jeep is seen approaching the base kicking up dust leaving behind a long cloud as it gets closer.
There are only two people inside the jeep, a driver and a pa$$enger in military greens, but the pa$$enger was in dress uniform, metals and wearing a hat.
All he brings with him is a duffle bag and a suit case.
The driver then tries to make some conversation. "Not many people come out in these parts...."
[glow=red,2,000]"So I hear."[/glow] "Your like one of them quiet ones ain't ya? Let me guess... CIA? Youse one of those 007 James Brown types ain't ya?"
[glow=red,2,000]"You mean James Bond."[/glow] "Exactly! So come on spill the beans, whats going on up there? All I knows is tons and tons of metal is ship up there, so give me some info, it won't kill ya."
[glow=red,2,000]"On the contraire, if I did it get us both killed."[/glow] "............... really??"
[glow=red,2,000]"Indeed. So; what would you like to know?"[/glow] "Umm, umm, ummm... f-f-f-forget it, forget I asked!"

*As they approached the gates, which slowly opened, two guards immediatly aimed they're laser pistorls at them...*
"C'mon Let's see some ID..."
In the background the base was unsually quiet, the odd jeep passed by but all the HK tanks, flyers and other military vehicles were lined up in an orderly fashion, almost on parade...
Floodlightlights stood high above the ground many of them and armed security cameras monitoring every move, every serviceman made.. And yet still, it seemed quitet.. almost too quiet..

The passenger gave the guard a ID out of his briefcase. [glow=red,2,000]"Special Agent Jonathan 'Jaxe' Coryat. I'm here to see Commander Onio Matashi."[/glow]
The driver began to sweat on everything from the seat to the steering wheel.

*The guard took the idea and studied it, what was a mere minute seemed like an eternity before the guard turrned his head up at the other guard and nodded before handing it back to the pa$$enger*
"Then your're in luck sir, please report over there in the waiting room in the main reception area to your right. You'll be met and debriefed there. Have a good day sir..
Alright let em' in..", the guard commanded to the other waving them in..

The jeep drove ahead, passing the all the vehicles that were lined up. The driver began more and more nervious. Then they were stopped. "Excuse me sir, we will take you from here on in. Your driver will have to leave now."
"F-f-find by me!"
Jaxe got out of the jeep and took his belongings. As soon as he did the driver spun the jeep around and made for the exit as fast as he could!
This didn't really faze Jaxe at all. [glow=red,2,000]"All right, I'm all yours. Take me to your leader, and lets hurry, I hear he has a nasty temper when anyone gets on his nerves."[/glow]

The Soldier led the youngster across the empty looking base to what started out as a temporary bulding, that looked more like a portacabin...
As they crossed the base, Jaxe could see the huge rear end of the Ark III embeded in the side of Mount Kinsley...

Jaxe wasn't too surprized by what he saw.
He had been debriefed by his superiors back in Washington about where he was going. They had filled him in on the crash of the 3rd Ark and only a basic idea of what was going on here, research as they called it.
But also, Jaxe's father was here.
Jaxe alos did some research on the first group of Transformers that came to earth. The forces lead by Optimus Prime and Megatron had done more then left a mark on the planet. More then 200 hundred years before, it was now apart of earth's history! One of the greatest wars they ever had. And it wasn't even between themselves.
Jaxe had seen the original Ark once, when he was first told of the project. But seeing this one, the scale was so great it was alos over whelming. Infact this ship, or what was left of it looked bigger.
He then followed the guards quietly, he knew he wasn't going t get any information out of them so kept on without uttering another word.

The Guard and Jaxe arrived at the makeshift portacabin, the former knocked on the door, nodded at Jaxe then left.. From inside a growl came..
"YES? Come in.." As the door opened Onio Matashi Was standing at his desk organising some papers...
"Well sit down son, i haven't got all day... Let's see Coryat, Coryat... Ah yes, I see your father works here too, is that correct?"

Jaxe took his seat and placed his briefcase to his right. [glow=red,2,000]"Yes sir, Major Walter Coryat. I was informed that he been here for quite some time, about 6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days... and that now I am to be assigned to the project. As far as I know, it was something to do with the Transformers."[/glow] Jaxe still hadn't taken the assignment 100%, but he wondered if he could still back out at this stage.
But he did want to see his father again, it had actually been a few years since they had talked.

"It's like this son, even with all our technology today there are still aspects of Transformer technology we don't yet understand. It's been over 50 years since the alien vessel crashed into one of our mountains, and given their history, i'm sure your aware of the original Transformers that arrived on Earth and their destructive capabilities, given all that; we need to know as much about them as possible...
And that's where you come in, you will be assigned here for as long as neccasarry, possibly for life, to find out the secret of the Transformers, and there weaknesses... Any spin on their technology, any therioes, discoveries, WE won't to know about it..."
Matashi paused, "Ii'll give you a minutwe to digest that and prehaps you can tell me what you think.."
Matashi Leant over his desk and preshed a button on his inter-com, "Marsha, get me a cup od coffe in here...
You want some coffee Coryat?.."

[glow=red,2,000]"Yes sir, I take it black..."[/glow] Jaxe knew he wouldn't have to stay here for life. He was determined to wipe out the Transformers once and for all and as soon as possible.[glow=red,2,000]"Sir, is it possible to fill me in on any of the clashes on earth thought to be caused by the Transformers? I heard there have been rumors and fake sighting and so forth..."[/glow] Jaxe was referring to the battle that claimed his mother's life when he was just a child.

*Before Matashi could Anser the war siren suddenly went off as well as the phone.. Onio snatched it of it's hook.."
"Yes?.....
MY GOD......."
*Matshi stood up and looked out his portagabin window, through the grill plated window a stream of military servicemen came pouring out of the Ark III like rats from a sewer duct... All scrambling to HK tank and Flyers...
Without even bothering to continue the conversation on the phone, Onio Matashi slammed the reciever down on the hook... And was half-way round his desk almost at the door...
"Get your things special Agent we must proceed to the Ark III Immediatly!.. C'mon let's go, MOVE IT!!...""

[glow=red,2,000]"What?! Yes, of course sir!"[/glow] Stunned at what was going on, Jaxe was on his feet and had his belongings in his arms and was behind Matashi in a mad dash for Ark III.
He figued now he was officially signed on for life.

Matashi and Jaxe left the portacabin and rushed across the base.. Already HK Flers were powering up and starting to take to the air to give air support to the air force of Washington...
As they scrabbled across the base, on high alert was a flurry of activity once again.. Within a couple of minutes they had scrabled to the enterance of the Ark and were walking in what used to be itt's shuttle bay, even inside people were frantically running around as Onio and Jaxe walked down the shuttle bay.
Numerous officers did quick saltes to matashi as they saunted past, some running, some just walking in a great hurry.. As they walked the complex technology and overwhelming size became apparent to jaxe, Machinery and advanced computers ten stories higher than the regular human being.....
