Hong Kong is a bustling city located in Southeast Asia. It is also the financial hub in that part of the world. In light of the recent protests, the government has been oppressing critics and protesters with help from the police.

A bright yellow Lambourghini Aventador sped through the streets, followed by a few police cars, sirens wailing. Rounding a corner after the Lambourghini, the police drove straight into a swirling green vortex. Out of sight from others, the car's doors opened. A teenager got out and hurried away. When the human left, the driver within disappeared. The car transformed. Seconds later, a blood red mech slammed down in front of her. "Always getting into trouble, aren't you, sis?" Vampyricon asked. Paradox grinned and swiped her arm down in front of her. "Whatever," she said in Cantonese, the main language of Hong Kong. "Who else is here?" she asked "Just you. School starts tomorrow, so we should get going." "What are we waiting for then?" Another Groundbridge opened in front of them, and Vampyricon gestured for her to walk through. She did so and he followed, the portal closing behind them.

Over the city of Hong Kong, an object with an extremely high velocity sped down to the surface of the planet.
Before the touchdown, that “object” suddenly turned on something that looked like some kind of reverse thrust. It slowed down, but apparently not slow enough, as it crashed on somewhere north of the Lantau Peak with quite a noise.
That ”object” was in white and blue and looked like a futuristic aircraft. It sat still in the small crater the impact created, with one of its wings partially buried under the ground. Aerojet didn’t move for a while, still a bit disoriented from the crash. Looking around him, his processor speed became faster again as he slowly recovered and recalled what had happened. Upon the atmospheric entry when he had descended onto the surface of the planet, he had spotted a vessel which suspiciously looked like the Nemesis orbiting the Earth in the distance. Not wanting to get closer, he had decided to make a detour. He had made a small careless mistake, which had made him enter the atmosphere in a wrong angle. And then, he ended up here.
“Seriously? My comms?”, after running a few quick internal checks, Aerojet exclaimed quietly. Comms and some other equipments are damaged and cannot be used, which meant he can’t call for a ground bridge.
Aerojet sighed. Well, if he couldn’t ground bridge there, he might as well fly to there. Noticing that his alt-mode style probably wouldn’t blend into this world. He looked around and searched for a new alt-mode. Noticing the sound coming above the head, he looked up and discovered some planes are approaching the nearby Hong Kong International Airport. He scanned one of them and transformed into a Learjet. Although Aerojet found the jet beautiful, he really didn’t like it. It’s too bulky and it affected his movements. But he decided he could always scan a new alt-mode. For now, it should suffice.
Sneaking into the Chap Lap Kok Airport, he added to the queue of waiting aircrafts. After he was cleared for takeoff by the human air traffic controllers, he took off from the runway and flew towards the Rockies in the United States. Glancing at the city under him, he really wished their war wouldn’t harm this lovely city, and many more others on this planet.

It didn't all happen at the same time. The message appeared first in one part of the planet and then spread out, as time progressed. It was almost like a bizzare re-enactment of the new year's countdown, where area by area would enter into the new year. Except it did not start at midnight. It started at the time of day when most people were at home,it interrupted the evening news, the best time slot. And it wasn't a count down to a celebration, it wasn't a countdown at all. It just began, transmitted and ended. The package appeared on the servers of the tv news houses. When they began to transmit it would hijack the frequency and it would continue to do so untill the whole transmission was complete. If the technitians would have tried to shut it down, it would either block their attempts or skip to the next server and just continue. Once all its content was shown, everything would return to normal. Other channels such as those that only showed documentaries or movies or even the somewhat more questionable content would loose their frequency (their signal 'hijacked') for the duration of that transmission ensuring that even those who had been disinterested in watching the news, would not miss out on that content. The transmissions for these could be sourced either to the TV news giants or to different random locations in that same country. It was all automated while it made it quite impossible to trace it to its source.
The message began with : Decepticons? Who are they? Each of the transmissions lasted the same amount of time and each was translated to the language of the country to which it had been transmitted to. In some cases it would translate into more than one language for countries such as Belgium or Switzerland. It had subtitles too, so that those who may not have been able to hear, could watch, and of course the spoken part, so that those who could not see could hear. The voice must have been altered as it sounded even more 'robotic' than usual. It did not say much and only explained parts that needed explaining.
The first message was followed by clips of a foreign planet, Cybertron, as it was explained. It showed reports of attacks by this new faction, the decepticons. Industrial sectors were sabotaged, corporate sectors were poisoned, bombswere detonated throughout Kaon, various space ports of Kaon were blown up. There was a clip of Megatron, the Decepticon leader as he was subtitled, while he spoke: "Show no mercy. Everything, all of this, burns. Wake up Cybertron. Your era is ending." Another clip of civilan ships being fired at and shot down was then shown still in relation to the first battle of Kaon. Then more fighting ensued. The battles that followed the destruction of that city and involved other cities. It was a collage of events, each showing the crimes committed by the Decepticons upon the civilians, some showing damage sustained by those unfortunate enough to have been caught by that faction. Even for humans it would be clear that they were subjected to torture and that parts were missing that should have been there. Greasly sights really. The autobot signs were clearly visible on the suffering. There were also a few clips of Autobots trying to defend and protect those less able to do so themselves. And another mention of a virus that they had designed as a part of the biologicalwarfare that the Decepticons developed and used against the opposing side and its aftermarth. The final clip was of the event that happened on Earth when the Nemesis crashed. The big explosion which destroyed a big portion of the Decepticon side and and more importantly, of the Autobot side. It was told that this explosion was caused by the Decepticons. The watcher could decide what to make of it.
Whoever had made the collage must have taken part there or had access at least to some who did and were willing to share what they saw. The camera zoomed out on Skyspray Prime trying to form a shield for his troops before whoever had stored this data was being thrown through the air thanks to the blast itself. Another angle was shown, perhaps the information stored in the helm of one of the Autodrone survivors. A view of the destruction caused by the Decepticons upon their own was the last thing shown before the last message appeared on the screen.
This is the real face of those you wish to trust, was said and then the transmission ended. There was a second media where the message was altered to suit it. This was the radio. Since a video was impossible here, the message simply contained clips of the different commands that the Decepticons – who were introduced by name – gave, that lead to massacres or crimes that the civilians had to suffer, some clips were even of the events on earth. These messages were intended for those who may have been in their cars on the way home or who worked as truckers or similar, pretty much those who were at work or on the road.
Sometime later the content that had been sent via tv news appeared on one of the most popular video sharing sites as well giving whoever so wished the choice to pass it on, it appeared among the top suggested clips to see and share as well, of course.
