Game of Flames by Robin Wasserman
5.0
In the second book, the Alpha team onboard the Cloud Leopard -- Dash, Piper, Carly and Gabriel, guided by th enigmatic Chris -- learn the Omega Team's following them and they have an edge: a leader, Colin, who looks strikingly like Chris.
More on that later.
They are now competing for the second element, Magnus 7, found only on Meta Prime, which is a world split between two sides of warring robots. One side is led by Lord Garquin, the other by Lord Cain. The element they seek is contained in a little robot named TULIP, who they have to search for amidst the hordes of robots flinging lava bombs at each other.
What Team Alpha doesn't know is their leader, Chris, created the war on his first visit to the planet aeons ago, which is why he knows so much about how to train the kids to face the planet's challenges.
While Team Omega's fully briefed on the situation, and they quickly get the upper hand. How?
I won't spoil how it ends, just know, now both teams are head-to-head in this competition and Dash is a bit too trusting -- of everyone, really -- to fully get the upper-hand for some time to come.
