Chris sighed, he was at the beach for the day. He was finally off his Father's version of grounding. Of course, there were some bodyguards around, though he hadn't noticed any of them. Sideswipe was probably one of them, considering he drove him there. He was at the basketball court just off the shore, shooting around. He had not had a lot of time to practice considering recent events, and besides, he felt he needed some time to cool off. After all, it was nearing the end of July, and before he knew it summer would be over. He sighed, taking a breath for a moment, he was drenched with sweat.
"Man, I really need to stop pushing myself so hard." He muttered to himself.

A beautiful girl wearing a short skirt and red tank top came out of the city and walked around taking in every sight she could. Corina had decided that after her first official day at Tranquility she needed to go expore the city and everything it had to offer, she went around and around until she came to the shore line. "Beautiful place." Corina mumbled to herself as she pulled out her iPhone and began to play "New Divide" By Linkin Park. She walked past the basketball court and sat down on the benches over looking the ocean and beach. This really was a good place to come and relax. Corina checked her phone to check to see if any new messages or calls had been missed and she was in the clear. Corina turned down her music so she could hear the waves splashing against the shore and just listen to the peace and quiet of the beach.

Mark walked onto the beach, after about an hour bus ride he was finally here. He really needed to get himself a car, maybe Chris could help him, after all he somehow got himself a Corvette maybe he could hook him up. Mark looked toward the basketball court and noticed Chris there.
"Speak of the devil..." Mark muttered walking over toward Chris. "Hey dude what's up?" Mark asked as greeting, if anything maybe today would be somewhat productive.
(Sorry for shortness, and tell me if Mark doesn't know about the Corvette)

Chris turned his head, seeing his best friend Mark approaching. He breathed a sigh of relief, when he had heard his voice, he had half-thought it may have been one of he Autobots. Lucky for him, it wasn't. He sighed a waved slightly. "Hey Mark, nothing really, cooling off and shooting hoops." He then added "Trying to be less tense then I have been for a while."

Corina suddenly became aware of the two on the basketball court. She peeked over and both were father good looking to her, but the odds of them coming and at least saying "Hi." to her were not that good. So she shrugged it off and sighed as she leaned back in the bench her head falling over the backside of the bench allowing her to peer up at the sky and look at the clouds and blue sky that was overhead.

Mark was about to joke around saying something like 'how an you cool off if your shooting hoops' but after Chris mentioned being tense he was interested, after all who's tense during summer? "Why are you tense? It's summer dude," Mark asked, he was bored sure but he wasn't tense in the least. He was also very annoyed, if felt like School had just finished yesterday and now they were a weeks away from school starting.
Mark sighed, why did it have to be when you really get into summer it starts to slip away faster. It probably had something to do with that 'time flies...' saying which seemed to be true.

"Things have just been tense... I mean I told you my Dad showed up again." Chris commented, looking at Mark calmly "Which I think we can both agree was unexpected." He lied, though that was of course partially the reason under the circumstances of his tenseness and slight stress as of late. Of course Mark didn't know his Dad was Optimus Prime, only that Chris hadn't seen him since he was very little.

Corina didn't really hear muhc of Chris and Mark's conversation, but whether she had heard it or not she was getting bored. She tapped her iPhone and looked at the time, it was about 11:50 and she was getting slightly hungry. She stood up and brushed her skirt and her legs free of the dirt and then she began to walk past the basketball court. She however being the sexy dork that she is didn't see the tile that was elevated higher than the rest of the sidewalk and she tripped flat over it.
Corina sat up after she had tripped and looked at her legs, her knee has a fairly nice sized gash on it and her elbow had a small scrap on it. Her knee and her elbow stung like mad but she didn't notice that because she had looked over and seen Chris and Mark in the basketball court right beside her. She almost immediately turned a very bright shade of red hoping that the two hadn't seen her little trip.

22 year old Cira was out for another jog when she saw Corina. She'd met her here and there before and they'd become pretty good friends. What was even neater about Corina was that she expressed interest in Parkour. Once again, she had her headphones on, playing the song Sleeping Awake by POD.
She picked up her pace, just starting to pass the basket ball court Chris and Mark were playing in. "Corina! What's up?" she greeted, taking an ear bud out. Having noticed Chris and Mark as she ran by, she didn't think much of them. "You all right?" she asked, noticing it'd look like Corina had just tripped. She knew Corina wasn't too clumsy most of the time, and she began to wonder what might have made her trip. The sidewalk they were on was flat for many yards, after all...She glanced over at the boys. That was probably why. She recognized Chris's face, but didn't really know him well, per say. She smiled slyly, but said noting else to Corina for the moment, and glanced back at her.

Mark nodded, "Got it," he could get how that made Chris tense, after all a dad that hasn't been around that much suddenly comes to visit yeah that has 'tense' all over it. "Wanna play a quick..." Mark's voice trailed off as he noticed two girls talking by the court, he walked over to them looking at Chris over his shoulder real quick. "Hey ladies, need some help?" he asked noticing one of them had a few cuts he was still on the other side of the fence but he was in ear shot that he was sure of.

Chris looked over the fence, though he was in another world. There were times he wished he could tell Mark the truth. But tellling Monica had been dangerous enough, he didn't need another friend in danger. Mark was his best friend, but he had to think of his friend's safety at the same time. "Yeah, you ok?" He asked the girl who had fallen.

"Y-yeah. I'll be allright...my knee stings a little bit but nothing a band aid can't fix." Corina slowly stood up and propped herself on her non-injured leg and turned back towards Cira, "Hehe, Hi Cira." She was still a little bit peachy red as she now knew that both of the boys had seen her fall. She was especially nervous that Mark had seen her because just from her breif glance at him he was rather cute looking, but then again so was Chris but Chris looked to cute to be available. She shook her head, Come on why are you even thinking like that!? Like either of them would like you in that way! she told herself in her mind, still very embarrassed at the situation.

"That's good to hear. If you need anything, let me know, I usually carry medical stuff around since I do parkour so much." Cira said to Corina, running a hand through her long brown hair. She glanced at Chris and Mark. "You're the famous Chris Stratos, right?" she inquired. "I'm Cira Knight." she didn't deem it necessary to tell them she recently was promoted as an A10 pilot after training a couple years right out of high school with Master Sergeant Lennox and a couple other higher-ranking officers. Cira was also a certified rotorcraft mechanic. Her secondary mechanic skills were with A10's. "...And you are?" she asked, pointing an index finger at Mark casually.

Mark was glad to see the girl was alright, worse part of approaching strangers came up the introductions. Cira spoke to Chris first, he wondered what that was about but decided against asking. "I'm Mark," Mark told Cira simply he wasn't really big on introductions unless they were part of some joke he had planned. Mark looked around, it seemed everyone knew each other except for the girl who had been hurt but he decided that she would introduce herself in her own time, like after she recovered from the fall.

Chris's eyes widened at the word 'famous' if this girl knew that was not a good idea. "Oh you mean as in... Yeah, 3 time back-to-back basketball champion and varsity captain at Tranquility High." He gave the woman a look to say if she knew keep her mouth shut because Mark didn't know "So I guess you could say around here I'm 'famous'."
