KARR was silent for a second, his double scanner humming as it paced in and out. "If you don't have fun learning new things, you'll never have enough fun finding new ways to pester the humans." KARR said. "You know I'm right about that. The more you know about them, they'll more likely they'll be to underestimate you. A sure advantage. I do believe that is one of the reasons Megatron took interest in bringing me back. Because I am a native. I've never set foot on Cybertronia."

"You put up a good point there. I guess this pretty much applies to in order to bring down your enemy get to know them better." Nightridge said now looking back at him. "But there is many things to learn about this planet and a lot to learn it. Where exactly would we start?" She asked curiously. If it was that much of an advantage there had to be something that could help with this teaching of Earth ways, right? But how could she exactly trust these teachings since she had just met KARR, especially if their faction was known for it's deception and other qualities. Then again she found no fault from KARR. Nightridge finally decided she could trust him, "Well teacher' your call. Where do we start?" She asked.

'Teacher'? KARR mused. Odd, no one called him that before...
"It's a 'gray zone'. There is no right place to start..." the AI-vehicle paused for a moment in thought. "I think you chose right driving out here. I recommend you just get used to the territory, since you probably can't fly you won't need to worry about airspace-that's a whole additional dimension in itself. Humans are very picky about their territory, you see. Even in when they're in the sky. Everything has to be labeled like a road map. Luckily I don't think you'll have to worry about that." KARR turned around slowly and continued to jostle through the dirt road, moving up hill. "It's smart of you to practice drifting and whatever else you can manage. People accept autobots, but some are still not entirely used to the whole idea. All bots still prefer to stay in our vehicular forms unless a task demands other wise. Out here though, I don't think anyone would give a damn." KARR shifted gears and moved along slowly.
The slope wasn't that steep and he presumed Nightridge wouldn't struggle that much, but he would just have to wait and see. If she had trouble, he'd take her to slightly flatter ground near one of the only major highways in Alaska, Seward Highway. "By the way. I am called 'Knight Automotive Roving Robot'. KARR for short."

Nightridge listened. "Picky, eh? That explains their strange housing arrangements and cities of how they are built." She said still staying in robot mode and not having much trouble with the hill before transforming. The slope wasn't too difficult, but her form was not exactly a 4 wheel drive neither so it did have it's complications. "It seems the terrain out here would be perfect for practicing so that will be covered. And pretty much I wouldn't care if I transformed in public, I think it's funny the humans run like ants in a picnic." She said. "Who knows maybe we can make a sport out of it." "Oh and the name is Nightridge." She added.

"You're name's better than mine." KARR complained. Seeing that Nightridge was still keeping up, KARR kept moving at a semi-slow speed up the hill, which gradually got steeper. The road curved a little bit, going into a grove between one side of the hill and another on the left. "It's so fun making them uncomfortable!" KARR said. "We should terrorize some people in this state! We'd make the news easily!"

"Oh, it's not that bad KARR." Nightridge replied as they continued up the steeper part of the hill. It was getting difficult but she continued after the F150. "Now your talking. I wouldn't mind terroizing a town or two here int his state and make the front page. Who knows maybe they'll be more amusing then suual." She said. But as she was following one of her tires hit a sharp part of the road ending up wiht a flat. "Damn, stupid rocks." Nightridge growled and transformed.

"First we should terrorize some of the biggest cities-which are small in comparison to most cities in the the rest of this country." he said. "The first of those states is a hundred or so miles away. There's not a lot out here. Least we're not in the dead middle of the state. Juneau is the capital. We should crush it! But of course, after you get a little more comfortable with this terrain..." he finished, noting that she had to transform.

"Terroziing a city, now that's my kind of fun." Nightridge said, swifting tires always keeping an extra just in case. "As for the terrain, i'll be fire just falt tire, no big deal." Nighrdige said then transformed back to vehicle mode, "And so where is Juneau exactly?" Already the decepticon femme wa slooking forward to destroying something in the capital of this worhtless country and she could use the target practice. Her athusiasm wa salso obvious formt he continuing of her roaring engines as she continued on.

"It's about one hundred fifty miles south west of here. Let's avoid the high way for a while till we get closer." KARR was pleased to have someone who wanted to accompany him in destroying stuff. He didn't get a lot of that these days. "You'd best stay on cleaner roads, seeing how you lost a tire. Luckily I can re-inflate mine. They're also much harder to bust." oh how he loved being so durable and bullet proof. KARR kept his GPS focused on their current location in comparison to where part Seward highway was located on the map.
Karr saw an eagle fly over head. He watched it through his scanners. He transformed into his bot form, which was almost completely black, but parts of each shoulder were white, and the upper half of his thighs were white like one of his original forms had been, but the rest of his arms, legs, feet and upper body were black just like KITT was-even parts of his head and head armor. KARR's optics were not visible-since his back was to her, and if he did turn around, Nightridge would see that the optics were covered by a thick bar that was replaced by the double scanner that had been placed just above the grill. They continued to move in the same hypnotizing manner that they always did. At the side of his right upper arm was the Decepticon symbol painted in a dark gray-light enough to see when lighting hit that side of him.

Nightridge follwoed in silence but for a moment watched KARR then focused once more on the road ahead of them. If in robot mode she would ahve glanced around at the wilderness and dark blue snow-capped mountains of the wild alaskian beauty, for it did have it's moments of being beautiful. Sighing slightly Nightridge transformed wanting to walk for awhile instead of drive. Looking around, she used her visor to scan at the different forms of life outside the cities that had seemed to have a different affect then hate for Nightridge.And for a brief moment she looked down near ehr chest then looked straight again shaking her ehad.

KARR carried onwards towards the road, but avoided going onto it right away, for he saw a few cars drive by it. He was itching to fly after them and smash them, but he stayed here for Nightridge. "Hey I know. Let's see how long it takes for us to drag out the cops and smash cars on the way there!" KARR suddenly turned around and lightly rapped a fist on her left shoulder with his right before whirling back around. "You're it!" he then quickly jolted forward, running/climbing up the rest of the hill, dust kicking up behind him quickly.
On the other side, the lower half the large hill/mountain dropped down quite quickly, and a steep hill full of ever-green trees of various sizes covering the landscape.

"Just full of ideas aren't you KARR." Nightridge said and was still wlaking before she saw him running and clinbing the rest of the way. "Wait up!" She hurried after him, half running, half climbing until she reached the top seeing the ever green trees and catching a glimpse of a road just between the openings. "So we heading down or what?" Nigtridge began a careful trek down the other side not scared of a fall. If thre was a risk then she'd take it. The thought of causing destruction made her quite ethustastic and to nto want to waste her time in doing so. Besides how long would it be before she had another chance for some fun? Probably not for awhile and so why not take aprefect golden oppourtunity.

"Yeah, we're going in. May as well not make them wait any longer." KARR said. He was itching to jump off the slope and fly, but he felt like he should keep pace with Nightridge so he didn't have to wait for her, and he didn't want to be seen by passing vehicles. Their forms would get bigger and bigger to wary eyes on the road as they got closer and closer, and KARR didn't want them to be noticed just yet.
KARR quickly began a descent down the slope, sliding/skidding where the rocks and/or dirt were more loose. He glanced to the left when he the slope 'stopped', now more in the open and was about a mile away from the road. He transformed into his 4x4 mode, ducking low and out of sight, and waited for Nightridge.
Even though this road was between major cities, the flow of cars was very gradually increasing. KARR was itching to leap into the air and land on a vehicle that just whizzed passed him.
((feel free to control passing vehicles. I'm just going to be random-ish with all this lol.))

Nightridge follwoed hidden jsut next to the line of pavement among the thick trees already tensed. When another car passed she transformed and came speeding onto the road, "Let's see what the humans got!" Shifting between gears she spealong the road at 100 mph...120...160...She was passing a few cars some forced to stop honking their horns and yelling curses after her but she only chuckled. "Such stupid fleshlings. DOn't even notice there's not even a driver." She said speeding up ocne more and saw a car just ahead. Oh, Primus this was already getting fun and she wasn't even started yet, nro was she close to finishing. This was going to be a great start alriight.

Shortly after Nightridge transformed and accelerated onto the road to immediately stop some cars, KARR transformed back into his autobot form and shape shifted 'slightly': expanding/shifting his large black bat-like wings. As he jumped out, he sprang high into the air, and his stature immediately scared the driver he targeted. The driver slammed his car's breaks and skidded a bit, but just as he did, it was too late. KARR landed on the vehicle, crushing it immediately with his knee as he landed in a kneel. He bounced back up, activating the boosters at his heels and sprinted down the highway, pouncing onto another car.
"This is a race of skill and speed! Smash as many as you can!" he declared, leaping forward again after the second vehicle was smashed. He saw a semi-truck up ahead. "Oooh! That ones MINE!" The truck was already freaking out, knowing KARR had just smashed the driver behind him.
