Arsenal casually walked along the row of buildings on his approach of the hangar. He noticed some of the soldiers eyeing him warily. Ever one to be friendly, he raised a hand and waved slightly. He had not yet trans-scanned an alt mode yet, but soon he hoped he would get the clearance to view the humans Aerial vechicles.
He hoped to meet Optimus Prime soon. He considered it an honor working under him before, and greatly looked forward to it once again.

There had been few occasions where Chris was able to pay NEST a friendly visit. Most of the time, he was either in trouble, or was there to be kept safe. Today was one of the few instances where he had simply come down because he was bored, and felt like visiting. His brain was currently scattered, he had never noticed before but when he was at the base, he was the youngest there, and at times it clearly showed. He sighed, hopping down from the object he was sitting on, he hadn't bothered to figure out what it was.
"Man, why does it always seem so busy around here?" He muttered. Though the answer was obvious, there had been a spike in Decepticon activity as of late. And NEST's job was clearly to prevent anything bad that might take place as a result of that. Still he couldn't help but mutter the rhetorical question quietly.

Arsenal saw a younger human. Seeing as the young one was not busy, Arsenal decided to talk to the boy. He hadnt met a human properly yet and gladly took the oppurtunity. He walked up to the boy, with a smile on his faceplate.
"Greetings, Friend. I am Arsenal. I'm new to this neck of the galaxy. What's your name?" he asked genuinely curious. He did like meeting people. Never has he run across a being that wasnt different in their own way.

Chris gave a slight jump, he had been contemplating going to see if Optimus was busy when the voice had rung out. Before he replied, he tried to think of if he knew an 'Arsenal'. However, nothing really came to mind. But it may have just been that it had been so long, in the same way he had forgotten Arcee. "Nice to meet you Arsenal, I'm Chris Stratos." He stated simply, turning his head to the mech with his hands in his pockets.

"Its a pleasure to make your acquaitance, Chris. You humans are quite fascinating. I look forward to working with your race against the 'Cons." He replied. He wondered if the boy knew the whereabouts of his fellow autobots. "Chris, would you mind telling me, of my brethren? I picked up a few signals on my way in." he asked politely. He would be glad to see some of his fellow autobots after that long journey thru space. It got a bit lonely out there.
He thought about the strange signals that he also picked up. They werent cybertronian but obviously were not human as well. He would have to wait to see.

"I don't know where most of the others are... I know Dad's probably working on something... Because he gave me a ride... but that's about it." Chris shrugged a bit, there didn't seem to be anyone assigned to watch over him today, for once. Or at least he hadn't seen anyone doing so. "I think besides him, you're the first Autobot I've seen today, in all honesty."

I know Dad's probably working on something is what he thought the boy had said. He had to replay it a couple times before his logics programming kicked in. He cocked his head to the side. Only one mech could possibly have had a human child. Stratos! Thats why the boy's name was familiar. While he had never met the child before he had heard Optimus had a son and that the boy's name was Chris Stratos! He made a note to get his logics processor cleaned out.
Arsenal gave a chuckle. "Your are the Prime's son? It is an honor to meet you. I have heard of you but never had the privilege to meet you in person. Is Optimus well?"

Chris chuckled, he found it funny how everyone thought it was a 'privelage' to meet him. He was just Prime's son, and his opinion that didn't make him as special as some made it out to be. That was not to say it was not cool knowing who his Dad was, but there were times where he didn't understand it. "Yeah, I'm Prime's... Eldest son." He looked at the mech "He's pretty good, stressed at the moment with all that's going on... But that never really stops him, now does it?"

Arsenal laughed openly at the last comment. "No I don't thinks so. There isn't much in the universe that can stop Optimus from doing what he feels right." He said. Arsenal had witnessed Optimus in battle on several occasions. The enemy more often than not never knew what them. "This is a beautiful world you have. I shall do what my part to keep it safe. For it is my home as well now."

"Yeah it is... Though I still miss Cybertron..." Chris wasn't shy about saying that. He was just barely old enough to remember, quite vividly the world he had been born on. Though he had grown up in the final days of the war, when it was very war torn... However, he still felt it had been magnificent. "But Earth is really beautiful too." He then added, looking up "So how long ago did you arrive?"

"I've been planet side for 4 earth hours now. I am awaiting a chance to speak with Prime. Just before I entered the atmosphere I detected a Decepticon signature, but I lost track of it entering Earth space." He told Chris grimly. "It dissappeared as quick as it appeared Im afraid." But at Chris's words of cybertron he found himself longing for the skyline of Iacon. Even if he was being shot at it was still magnificent.

"Probably was informed Nemesis was back.." Chris murmured, he made a mental note to inform his Father that it was possible Decepticons were coming. "If you don't get the chance, I can probably get that message to him." He commented "He's gonna need to know that..." He explained with a small shrug.

"I would greatly appreciate that Chris. I must go find an Alternate mode. I must say some of your human aircraft is remarkable. I look forward to studying this planet more. Farewell, Friend." He said. He smiled as he walked towards an open hangar. Some humans had waved to him as they passed by on a truck. Arsenal happily waved back at them.
