Skids tapped his foot impatiently with his arms crossed over his chest. He and Mudflap had gone out together to each get something for Chris's party. He came back, but Mudflap had been gone for quite a while now. And as much as he didn't like his own brother at times, he was starting to worry a little.
"Man...Mudflap gets lost e'rry now and then...but never -this- lost." he said to himself. "If he ran into trouble, like Decepticon trouble, he woulda called me, or the rest of da 'bots..."

Chris had other things on his mind other then a missing Autobot. Seeing as he was dealing with Senior Year (hopefully) coming up in a few months, he had college applications to fill out. With sports, acting, and straight A's on his resume he was a shoe in for plenty of colleges... There were quite a lot of schools he could have open doors to.
He turned the corner with a new batch of applications, headed for his room. The applications consisted of: UNLV, UCLA, MIT, and Caltech. UCLA and Caltech were there in hopes of possibly going to college near Monica. He noticed Skids standing nearby and headed over, figuring he could take a break. "Yo Skids, what's up?" He commented.

I'll worry 'bout Mudflap later. Dude can handle himself as well as I can...well, almost as good as I can. thought Skids to himself moments before he heard a voice from below. Looking down, he saw that it was Chris.
"'Sup Optimus Chris?" he asked, hoping to get at least a chuckle out of him. "Me? Jus' seein' if Mudflap's willin' to show up now, or later." said Skids as he uncrossed his arms. "Jus' hope he din't buy one of them cakes I brought ya too." he added with a lighthearted chuckle.

Chris did indeed chuckle a bit, setting the papers down. "Not much really, sorting through College Applications." He decided to explain it in a way Skids would understand "In other words, applying to places sort of like Autobot Academy back home."
Chris thought about the cake on his birthday the day before. Boy that had been one damn good cake, he had to give Skids that. "Oh I won't mind, that cake was to die for." He commented.

"Here's hopin' you have as good a time in this "college" place like Me an' Mudflap did in Autobot Academy." said Skids with another chuckle. However the two managed to pass, only Primus would know.
"My buddy, the one I got your cake from. Dude says them cakes ain't no good after they get too warm. The milk seeps out and turns the whole cake into mush. Prolly still tastes good, but I think it's probably better the way I brought it." He said with a shrug.

"I hope so too... But there are so many choices, mostly because I got a lot on my resume." Chris shrugged, then added "It's a little overwhelming in the sense I have to choose just one in the end." He then added "I wish it could be as simple as having one 'college' like back home."
"Yeah, you have a point there... I can imagine sponge cake would not be very good all hot and melted." Chris commented, he then added "But I'm sure he's fine, don't worry about it."

"Yeah. I bet he is. Prolly just ashamed to come back after I beat him home." he said with a grin, light glinting off of his gold tooth. Even in times like these, he still found it proper to talk up his achievement. Like he said to himself before, if Mudflap were in any serious trouble, NEST would have heard about it.
"'Sides, I told him I called dibs on dat Tres Leches cake. So Mudflap better be rollin' in here with a diff'rent present than I did, or Imma whup him good." he said as he flexed his oversized right arm.

"Yeah, possibly." Chris agreed with a nod, Mudflap was a bit compettitive he supposed. He smiled a bit and chuckled at Skids's other comment. "Yeah, a cake was a smart gift." He nodded in agreement "And the party itself was freakin' awesome."

"I didn't know ol' Prime had a thing fer throwin' parties. If yer birthday party was that awesome, jus 'magine the victory party we'll be havin' when we win this war!" Skids said with enthusiasm in spades. "I'm lookin' forward to dat if Prime's hostin' it."
"And with all da new faces showin' up wit Autobot symbols on 'em, wouldn't surprise me if we get Megatron runnin' away with slag in his booty plates!" He said as the following chuckle turned into a full on laugh.

"Yeah, Dad was always big on throwing birthday parties." Chris explained with a shrug. It was partially the reason he didn't want a big fuss over it, though Optimus had made one. He didn't mind but still he felt he should have been focused on the war.
The next comment he didn't reply to. His mind strayed to his visions. Question is, if that happens, what do we do about Unicron if it really is him? He thought to himself.
