[[Chris: I'm not sure where exactly where you've to have the location, but ill just say there in another state now. Just let me know what you've decided on so I can describe stuff better later XD]]
Goliath rolled into the base. They were in a fairly obscure location, and right now it was actually pretty empty here. Goliath was hoping Megatron or Ravage would be around, but there didn't appear to be any promises of this. KARR wasn't even here. If he had been, his signal would have been picked up immediately, sticking out like a sore thumb.
The sleeping gas had worn off for the most part now. It still lingered in the trailer, as he had yet to open it and air it all out. It was somewhat late in the afternoon because Goliath had taken his time waking up and departing from his second stop at the weigh station. He had only slept an hour or two and driven well through the early-ish/late morning. It'd been about 7 am when he started driving again. The drive had been long and somewhat slow when passing through a handful of cities.
Goliath was feeling pretty calm about all this, all though, he still was a bit surprised that he hadn't picked up any Autobot signal yet. Chris seemed to be fairly smart. Maybe he HAD done something back at the first weigh station. It made Goliath paranoid and debate about killing the teen even more. Goliath tried to keep this in the back of his mind though. If he wanted the shard, he'd have to set up what would seem a fair trade, create a delicate balance of making both easy opportunities and difficult ones with the whatever Autobot showed up. The nanomachines remained bound to Chris, appearing to be completely solidified, almost as solid as the rest of Golath's form. Goliath had to be ready to face anyone.

(An Abandoned Air Force Base outside of Texas)
Chris was barely awake due to the lingering gas. His entire body was still bound, and he could only move slightly in them. He was struggling a little earlier, but he had stopped. He groaned, feeling the stop of his captor, he knew, even if he couldn't see outside of the walls of the trailer, that they had arrived most likely.
He groaned yet again, struggling to get free. He wondered why he hadn't been let loose yet. Was he waiting for someone before taking Chris out? He didn't know. He looked around quietly, all the drones appeared to still be in stasis from what he could tell but he couldn't be too sure. What gives? Are we we there or what? He thought to himself, had he not been gagged so tightly he'd have voiced his question.
All the same, he twisted around in his binds, to turn his head very slightly. As if trying to talk to Goliath, he managed to speak, very roughly, through the gag. "Are you gonna let me out?" He asked, trying not to sound impatient, he was not in the postion to do so.

Goliath grunted, acknowledging the teen was awake now. "Yes, we're here." Goliath's large door opened up with another whir, and the nanomachines slowly uncoiled themselves and merged back into the walls of the trailer. Chris could move along the side like all the other times to the exit. A drone backed up and transformed into its mini bot form, and stood at the entrance waiting for Chris.
((I'm going to post as KITT so the others can start down Goliath's path, since they might know about where the Decepticon Base is anyway...))

[[Optimus and Corina will both be posting here eventually. Jazz can choose to join if he wants.]]
Tracking, tracking, and more tracking. It was a bright and early morning as KITT rolled into the first Weigh station Goliath used to take a break. Corina and Optimus were here with them, and had been driving all night. KITT never slept, but he knew Corina needed it (thus it'd be no surprise that Corina might still be asleep unless she's wired). KITT played a plethora of songs by Dream Theater and Joe Satriani, sometimes playing it loudly, and another hour playing it a bit quieter for Corina's sake when she seemed to be tired.
Rolling to a stop, KITT scanned the area, already aware that there were a few trucks moving about, and no Autobots other than Optimus's own semi form, which unfortunately stuck out like a sore thumb. Then again, so did KITT's glossy black nanoskin and double red scanner. "I wouldn't be surprised if he stopped here. If Chris left any sign they were here, this is the most likely location." he said, reaffirming these facts to Optimus. KITT knew Goliath fairly well. As soon as he and Corina were called, he got right on the chase, Goliath's signals and spark signal were easy to trace.
KITT's holographic form emerged as an extra pair of eyes and stretched. He took a glance back at Corina and then started to walk around, looking any sign, big or small, that Chris was here. His real form scanned the area too. Both were scanning the perimeters like a bloodhound. His holographic form scanned for stuff on the ground, while his real scanners looked for anything abnormal elsewhere.
KITT hadn't immediately detected Chris's advice until his holographic form stepped right over it, releasing a signal indicating movement, which reflected the holders last known position, like a single, brief blip on the radar. KITT's holoform halted with wide eyes. "He was definitely here."

Chris breathed in the fresh air that made it's way through the passages of the trailer calmly. He would have smiled, but there was no reason to smile. He sighed with relief instead, standing slowly as the binds released him, he walked the same route he had gone down to use the restroom. Lucky him, he hadn't had to go that entire day.
He sighed seeing the minibot form of one of the drones waiting for him. He stopped a bit knowingly, apparently he was either going to be carried into the base or be escorted. Either way it was better to stop in case it was the former, best not make it look like an escape attempt. "Can't even leave the convoy without one of your drones carrying me?" He asked, rather bluntly.
(I only guessed what the drone thing meant, sorry if I was wrong)

Corina was not the kind of person you would expect to be bright eyed and bushy tailed in the early morning like this, but being the hunter that she was she was used to getting up in the mornings and heading out. She was clearly pumped that her and KITT had been chosen to go help rescue Chris along with Jazz and Optimus. Though Corina had been with the Autobots and NEST for quite some time now she still hadn't even been this close to Optimus and it was kinda nerve racking but she was still aimed at going to help Chris.
When KITT pulled up and his holoform stepped out of the car, she also opened her door and stepped outside taking a look around with her keen eyesight she would be able to spot the slightest movement (even though she was sure the other bots could do it just as easily). She wore some dark clothing in case it required going into a dark place, seeing that the Decepticons were all about black and death things it was best that she be dressed dark to blend in as well as she could. At her side was a rather impressive pistol, a M92 Baretta Pistol to be exact(OCC: reference pic of Gun ---http://www.aceros-de-hispania.com/image/m92xxtreme-beretta-pistol/beretta-pistol-m92xxtreme.jpg) and it was well equiped with lazers for perfect targeting and marking. She made sure it was latched unto her gun holder that was attached to the belt on her pants and made sure that she could get easy access to it.
After noticing that KITT had apparently crossed over something that gave a signal that Chris had been here or was still here gave her a hope that he was still allright, even though she was in love with KITT Chris was Prime's son and therefore he was like brother that she was going to protect.
"That's exactly what I wanted to hear KITT."[/color] Almost to seem like she was ready for battle she grabbed her gun out of the holder and loaded it, cocking it back with a click that would make her sound like she was a soldier going into a hopeless battle.

As soon as the two got back to base and shared the grave news, Optimus had asked KITT and Corina to come along. KITT because he was unique with his abilities, and Corina because she was a good friend of KITT's, and she had a good eye.
The four hit the road quickly, KITT scanning for Goliath's signature, which he picked up quite quickly and followed with ease. When it came to KITT and his skills, Optimus was never one to doubt. He learned that in some battles with KARR.
As KITT stopped and scanned the road, Optimus also pulled over his truck, his tires locked so he could slow. The leader than pulled over to the side of the road, and a holoform stepped from the driver's side. Walking over to KITT's holoform, he bent down, examing the Autobot sign he saw.
With a hand of flesh and bone, he picked it up, and examined it. "Chris was definitelly here. But it's been here a while. Come on, lets go. I don't want to think about what he's going through right now." The holoform stood up, clutching their evidence in his hand. He walked back to the vehicle, placing the finding on the dashboard before climbing into the vehicle.
The holoform appeared again in the driver's seat, appearing to shut the door, although it was the truck itself who did the task. Holding a pendant to his chest, the holoform closed his eyes, remembering when Chris was taken. Then with a quivering hand, he placed the Matrix beside Chris's handmade Autobot insigna, before the holoform disappeared, it's vanishing form sending a small flicker through it. Then it was gone, and nothing was left of a human inside the vehicle. "KITT, whenever you're ready." |

The drone watched Chris step out of the trailer. Goliath's holoform appeared around the left side of the large grayish white trailer with his arms folded. A stern, serious look was etched into his face. "No, we'll just escort." The truck remained in idle, growling behind them.
The old base here had a couple armories (one main and a secondary), storage units, and empty run down hangars. Goliath had all the codes to the storage units, luckily for him. The drone walked at a casual pace in front of Chris, leading the way. Goliath's holoform trailed behind just in case. Again, no Autobots yet. "I must say they sure are slow," he remarked.

"Oh you don't have to worry, they'll find me. And when my Dad does, you're going to wish you had just left me alone when you saw me at that truck stop." Chris turned his head to Goliath, wondering slightly where he was going to be held. His guess was the Barrack's or somewhere like it. But really, knowing the Decepticons, that might have been a little too comfortable in their opinion.
He touched the phone and PSP in his pocket calmly. His mind thought through the situation, he wondered if he'd get to keep him on his persons. This wasn't likely to be the case, but he supposed he'd ask anyway. "So do I get to keep my things, or should I just hand them over now?" He questioned.

"You can keep the game, that's it." He replied as they walked towards the main Armory. Nearing the unit which Chris would be kept in, the drone stopped and began to search Chris, as Goliath noticed about 4 pockets on Chris, all of which seemed to be firm, meaning they probably contained various items in it of potentially any kind outside the normal items humans typically possessed.
The drone scanned on visible and infrared wavelengths. It found the usual items first: a book, keys, an ID card, wallet...Oh, then the list got interesting: it found a small retractable grappling hook thing and a pocket knife. Goliath frowned. He was certain there was no way Chris would try and escape now, but why keep all that?
Goliath withdrew one of his red Energon Wrist Blades and approached Chris from behind, letting it barely touch his neck.
"Take out every item from those pockets now. One sly move or remark and I might just cut you off early and deal with the consequences anyway."

Chris felt his persons being checked, he felt a bit violated but sighed, may as well not complain. He looke around seeing they were in an old armory he wondered where they'd possibly think to store him there. He sighed, and began emptying his pockets, taking out the book, his wallet, and both his pocketknife and grappling hook. To his horror, he dropped his PSP taking out the latter and it shattered, there went his only source of enerterainmet. He set down his phone, his wireless charger, and finally when he was down set it all in front of Goliath's drone. "There that's all of it." Then his eye caught sight of something.
It was small, penny sized in fact, it was the tracking device that connected to the Compass he had left behind. His spark pounded and he quickly thought of an excuse. But he let it go, if he did and his stuff wasn't trashed, they may be able to still trace him especially if he didn't allow him to know it's existance. "Where do you plan on putting me anyway, we're in a weapons storage." He commented.

The drone saw something drop on the floor. Goliath immediately looked towards the sound of the faint 'ping' from the tiny device hitting the floor. It's signal was so weak, Goliath couldn't confirm it was anything risky, but he REALLY wasn't pleased about this. His holoform stepped on the device with out a second thought and then pivoted, grabbing Chris's right arm with his and brought it up to his back. He moved the wrist blade to the front of his throat instead of the back of the neck.
The drone darted to the door and opened the large empty storage unit. Goliath removed the blade from barely touching Chris's neck it disappeared with a faint hum as he pushed Chris forward with a nasty shove. "When empty, it makes a good prison cell. Enjoy your stay." he snapped.
Stepping back, he slammed the door shut and the unit locked up automatically.

Chris fell onto his back inside his holding cell, groaning lightly. The holding cell was really basically a case that used to hold something huge, maybe a bomb. He could sit in it, and maybe stand, but it was clearly made for something much smaller then himself. He stood up and walked over to the front, watching it lock, he could see everything as it was pretty much clear. His eyes widened as he saw the device was in pieces, there went his last hope of getting rescued. "I really hope you enjoyed your stay on Earth." He said, unknowing that he was like KITT and not born on Cybertron but made on Earth "Because it's gonna be really short."

Oh yeah forgot to say this in my post, sorries.
I think that ends Chris's part in the thread right there, not much else for him to do.

(Remember, Jazzy needs to post at some point)
[[Meanwhile at the weighstation,]]
"Yeah, we should have easy tracking from here. Follow me." KITT said, and his holoform walked briskly back to his true form. "Everything looks clear, Corina. Do you agree?"
