	As a driver idly meanders down a canyon road, a [[Seeker (body-type)\|pair of jets]] flies low above him, causing him to spin out. His confusion turns to horror as he sees the jets turn around, heading straight for him. As they do, he's suddenly passed by a [[Autobot\|group of motor vehicles]] barreling down the street. The jets open fire on the newcomers, engulfing the area in flames. All the vehicles suddenly shift into gigantic robots and open fire on one another. The driver is stunned, but before he can even comprehend what he's seeing, the strange visitors have vanished just as quickly as they came.
