In the present day, [[Windblade (Cyberverse)|Windblade]], still inside Bumblebee's mind, finishes watching yet another memory. Although Bumblebee still can't remember anything meaningful about the location of the ''[[Ark (Cyberverse)|Ark]]'', Windblade finds the image of the mountain familiar and consults the ship's logs to determine that it matches a peak in the [[Himalayas]]. Leaving a disappointed Bumblebee to guard the ship, she sets off. In the meantime, Bumblebee distracts himself by watching some human [[television]] on the [[Decepticon scout ship|scout ship]]'s monitors.

Somewhere in the upper slopes of the mountain range, Windblade arrives at the spot she saw in Bumblebee's memory and uses her fans to reveal a [[stasis pod]] of [[Autobot]] manufacture and a blaster, both left abandoned in the snow.

A mysterious clue from Bumblebee's memory leads Windblade on a treacherous journey.

Synopsis

[edit]

At some point in the past, a disoriented Bumblebee comes to on an icy mountainside, and is briefly confused by a mountain goat.

In the present day, Windblade, still inside Bumblebee's mind, finishes watching yet another memory. Although Bumblebee still can't remember anything meaningful about the location of the Ark, Windblade finds the image of the mountain familiar and consults the ship's logs to determine that it matches a peak in the Himalayas. Leaving a disappointed Bumblebee to guard the ship, she sets off. In the meantime, Bumblebee distracts himself by watching some human television on the scout ship's monitors.

Having arrived in the Himalayas, Windblade is unaware that her communications with Bumblebee have been picked up by the Decepticons Thundercracker and Nova Storm. Their commander Slipstream instructs them to follow the signal while she catches up with them.

Somewhere in the upper slopes of the mountain range, Windblade arrives at the spot she saw in Bumblebee's memory and uses her fans to reveal a stasis pod of Autobot manufacture and a blaster, both left abandoned in the snow. Unfortunately, that's all she finds: her scans are unable to pick up the Ark itself, and she's unaware that the Decepticons have tailed her to her present location until the three Seekers reveal themselves!

Team Seeker's blasting off again!

Captured by the Decepticons, Windblade is interrogated by Slipstream for information on the location of Optimus Prime and the other Autobots, her glib answers only infuriating Slipstream and providing her with the window to break free and escape. A battle ensues as Windblade makes her escape, and though Windblade is able to send Thundercracker tumbling off a cliff into the fog, Nova Storm proves a tougher foe, and Windblade herself is nearly thrown off the same cliff before taking Nova Storm down, then uses her fans to drop Slipstream into the snow before finally making her escape.

Back at the ship, Windblade catches up with Bumblebee about her adventure, and happily presents him with his old blaster. Now, Windblade is certain that they're on the right track: the Ark is somewhere on Earth, and they'll have to find it before the Decepticons do!
