The female with the curly red hair walked around the suburb she lived in, her blue-gray eyes looking around in curiousity. She was wondering what was going to happen now. She had met a little mini-bot, Wheelie, who she thought was adorable beyond reason, and now it had her wondering.
She had finally looked at the pages belonging to the giant robot conspiracy theories and the forums it belonged with. She was surprised by the amount of information that her...fans had cultivated.
Now, she was just walking. Actually...she was walking aimlessly and wondering what the heck was going on. She wondered how David was and how Wheelie was. She wondered what she had missed and looked around. It made her wonder how often she had walked right by Transformers and from the way her breathing suddenly became harder, she decided that had been a bad thought to go with.
She liked Wheelie. He was small, cute, and adorable...and huggable. She smiled and shook her head a little at the memory. Wheelie loved those hugs.
Carwen paused and slowly looked up. She groaned and slapped her forehead with her hand. "Ugh! I'm lost!" she stated softly, looking around.

((wow thats got to be my longest post on this site yet--heck, maybe one of my longest in a while...  )) KITT was patrolling the suburbs in his 4x4 mode (which provided a much lower profile than the mustang form did), a black extended cab F150 Suprecrew. KITT was merely making sure everything seemed relatively normal, wary to look out for Decepticons-and he was partly doing this for Corina, Danielle, Cira and Sam's sake. KITT hadn't met Sam but he heard of him on numerous accounts and he also knew what he and his family look like from info in his data base.
KITT's red scanner paced in and out, glowing brightly even in broad afternoon light. He rounded a corner and saw a young girl around Corina's age looking a bit stressed, hand on her forehead. For some reason he found himself slowing down. His windows were already darkened almost as dark as they could go so people who might eye shiny black cars would not notice no one was driving.
He was compelled to the help the girl, so he put his skills to work. He scanned her figure and matched her name with all the data from California he had over the years, and focused on Tranquility's members. He guessed she was new in town and had some kind of family here, so she probably wasn't living alone-most people here on vacation seemed to not get so lost that they wandered into the suburbs, after all. Cross referencing countless images of names/families and images, KITT matched her face with a couple possible findings, and then zoned in on a picture that matched the one he had, and then found her last name and identification, Lewis. It was easy after that.
KITT disappeared around the bend, moving a little less than the typical speed limit posted in the suburbs. He didn't think Carwen would would think much about his scanner, as most people initially didn't, especially in this mode. KITT went down about a quarter of a mile and stopped behind a large tree, pulling close to the sidewalk to stay out of the way of incoming vehicles.
The AI waited till there were no cars and humans in sight. The houses were fairly quiet. So he made this quick even though people wouldn't see what was going on inside his form. From inside the darkened windows, KITT generated a holographic image of a young man about 17 years old. His appearance was up to him. KITT didn't want to go with something too mysterious, so he thought he would make him seem just a little older than Carwen. All he needed was a name...
The holograph looked VERY real, from the textures of his body and clothes to his hair and facial expressions. Pleased with his work, KITT's holographic form stepped out of the F150 Supercrew, shutting the door. He inspected the holograph one more time before he let him clear the street. Indeed, he looked believable real...The sound of someone clearing their throat in a non-obnoxious manner occurred about 5 feet behind Carwe. A teenage boy approached Carwen cautiously from behind. His face and skin were smooth and acne free. He had shaggy pitch black hair and brownish-red eyes. He wore dark faded black jeans, black sketchers and a maroon t-shirt. The teenager was slender in body type with broad shoulders, though a bit lanky. "Umm, hi. Are you lost?" |

Carwen didn't notice the scanner, though that was mainly because she was trying to figure out where the heck she was! She could hardly beleive that she had gotten lost in the suburb...that she had only been living in for a short period of time.
She groaned and shook her head a little when the sound of a throat clearing made her turn around to look at the source of the sound, then voice. She looked at the young man, who was a bit older then her, and flushed a little in embaressment...and the fact that he was a fine looking teenager.
"Um...yeah...I am...a little lost," she responded slowly and with more then a little embaressment.
The red head ducked her head a little and stared at the ground. She looked up slightly again and asked, "Do you know where I am?"
That part was a little difficult to say. She was surprised, and shocked, that she had no idea where she was, but she was going to be asking this guy for directions. If he was going to give her directions that is. She really didn't want to give him her address, not because she didn't trust him, but because she was sure that her mother would be far from happy that some random guy knew where her precious daughter lived.
Being the only child of a single (unmarried) mother didn't help matters in the overprotective area of her mother's brain.

"Well...you're on Haven street. The street intersecting this is Pine street. the hologram said, pointing at the stop sign up ahead and to their right, the same bend KITT had turned into this area from. "The one parallel to this is Oak street is over there to our right...what street are you looking for?" he asked. He paused a moment, waiting for a response, blinking a couple times. His eyes didn't necessarily reveal a lack of emotion...the boy merely appeared to be calm and passive.

Carwen blinked a little at the guy, still a little flushed in both embaressment and actually blushing. She looked around a little and stared in surprise as he gave the instructions with GPS capability. She blinked a little and she shifted a little. "Oak...I'm trying to get to Oak," she mumbled quietly.
She was still incrediably embaressed by it, and he was still a fine teenager. She wondered over where she was getting that feeling, since she usually ignored guys. She didn't like to try to get involved, put them in the possible situation of having to call nine-one-one. She didn't date, and she looked up. "What were those directions again so I can...not be lost?" she inquired quietly.

The hologram noticed she was blushing, and in turn he scratched the back of his head for a second, beginning to appear a bit uncomfortable as well. "It's just the following street over," he said, glancing down the intersecting street. "If you take a left at the second stop sign, you'll notice the numbers start in creasing. If you take a right at the stop sign, they decrease. And to the right there's a couldisac." he paused again, glancing back at her. "I hope those directions will suffice?"

Carwen looked over at the directions and shook her head a little. She was confused and lost. She was actually not sure of where to go still. She looked up at KITT and responded, "I'm very confused."
And she was. She was incrediably confused. The directions didn't help and she looked around a little. Was it at the first stop sign she needed to turn at or the second? She groaned and covered her eyes with her hands, breathing shallowly on purpose. It would prevent a horrid attack as she focused on breathing. She breathed in slowly, very slowly, then slowly released in a soft rush of air that she heard in her own ears.
She shook her head slightly and looked up at him. "Can...you walk with me?" she asked quietly.

The hologram blinked rapidly a little, not having expected to escort her. "Uh...sure." he walked forward at an even pace, approaching the stop sign up ahead. "The signs here are labeled Haven and Pine street. See?" he said. "We're going to take a right on Pine to intersect with Oak."
Once they turned right, another stop sign was several yards up ahead, indicating two more green street signs above the stop sign as they usually did. The signs there read Pine, angled in the direction they were going, and Oak was the intersecting one. KITT put a hand on this second stop sign, pointing left then right. "Oak is this one going left to right like Haven did. It ends pretty quickly to the right, but stretches out a long way to the left." If Carwen looked to the left or right she'd probably notice things were more familiar now. "If things look familar to you now, I will depart here."

Carwen smiled briefly as he agreed to walk with her. She slowly followed him, not doing her traditional looking around on the ground or in the sky for things people missed. People usually only looked forward, possibly around, but never down or up...or rarely looked up or down.
She smiled a little at his back, still allowing herself to crush on the Transformer in front of her. Well, the hologram in front of her. She didn't know that, but she was still crushing on him. She blushed and looked down at her feet before looking up as he began explaining the directions.
She looked around slightly and smiled over at him. It was a bright, warm, gentle, slightly flirtatious, smile. "Thank you!" she exclaimed cheerfully.

"You're welcome." the hologram nodded curtly and turned to leave, smiling briefly. As he turned to leave, KITT noticed the teenager's reddish-brown eyes slowly became more of a dirt-red, lined with bits of orange-yellow, bright like fire. But the hologram's back was to Carwen now, so unless something made him turn around again, she wouldn't notice...
But then of course, another gust of wind came through the area. The data streams twitched a little, resulting in a flicker that KITT could not help, despite the form being so real. I hope she doesn't notice... KITT kept the hologram moving, hoping that in doing so the flicker wouldn't be noticed.

Carwen smiled and nodded, though confusion took over her face. She thought she saw a change in his eyes, something different and she smiled a little, watching him walk. And then...the flicker. She groaned and turned, hitting her head against the post of the stop sign. "I was crushing on a Transformer!" she exclaimed, loudly.
She hadn't meant to, but it had happened. She stayed there, though. She then whined and rubbed her forehead from where she had harmed it. She groaned a little and shook her head a little. She groaned and looked to either side before going back to hitting her head, lightly, against the post. "Stick to your standards!" she grumbled out softly, doing a light tapping with her head against the post.

"I was crushing on a Transformer!" KITT's hologram couldn't help but stop dead in his tracks. Appearing to lack emotion, his face appeared rather blank as he turned around. It didn't mean wasn't "concerned or uninterested". KITT turned around, feeling like he should apologize. "I...uh...I'm sorry to have surprised you...I often patrol these areas because I know a couple humans that live here..." he glanced away, scratching his head again. "I don't know if you know them though. It's a big city after all... |

Carwen looked up at him and shook her head. "It's...all right. The first transformer I met transformed in my arms, so you're one up on him," she responded softly with a nervous laugh.
It was true; the little pervert. He was lucky that she wasn't like most girls, who would have sent him flying. She hadn't minded that he had far from minded the hug she gave him.
She looked up at him slightly and shrugged a little. "I could. I met this one girl at the beach...well, young woman actually. Once I was...exposed I guess, she talked. She pointed to her watch, explaining that she was in contract with a Transformer that way," she responded with a shrug.
She looked up to where she could see her house and she smiled a little at him. "You are much better at it then he was," she added and looked down, still blushing.

He smirked briefly, giving eye contact. A tiny bot? He hadn't met any yet. "Heh, I suppose I should be flattered. I'm still getting used to some of my...upgrades..." KITT's hologram said, his tone light. He added: "Hmm...then you might know one of them. Her name is Cira Knight. But she's not really my partner or anything. We do share an interesting history...and not in the way you might think..." KITT's hologram replied with a small shrug.

Carwen was a bit of an innocent. The first thing that came to mind when she heard history was a strong friendship, a family without a blood tie. She looked over at him and responded, "Unless you are telepathic, you cannot know what I am thinking. Though, if it pleases you, I was thinking of siblings with no blood bond. An incrediably strong friendship. Yes, she's the one I met on the beach. She was jogging."
She shrugged a little and added, "She actually irritated me for awhile. She assumed the website I ran, after metioning that giant robots were part of it, was just about them. I happen to own a site, run, and update, a site that is based on conspiracy theories found around the world. Conspiracy of the World. Luckily, I wasn't upset, just irritated."
