A Saleen Twin Turbo crusied down the highway, entering the largely popular area of Miami, Florida. Despite so many humans coming around there in the day and night time this was truly a place to hang loose in her opinion. Not to mention she'd fit right in with the other 'sweet' rides as the humans refered to some fancy sports cars. Nightridge was passing along the road near the beach with the palm trees going along the walk and boardwalk. "Well, maybe this won't be a waste after all. I could really cut back here any time." She would have smirked if in robot mode. Eventually she came to a small area where no humans were.
The sand dunes luckily blocked any from viewing from the road and this part of the beakc ahd a thick line of palm trees so she wouldn't be seen; though it would have been fun to have scared a few humans. Making sure once more the area was clear Nightridge transformed, the light brown sand sinking from the weight but NIghtridge didn't care much from it. Glancing around the femme Decepticon walked to a few sand dunes and sat down lying back.
"Definitely my kind of place." She said with a grin.

KARR was cruising through the lower 48 and was currently playing When You're Evil by Voltaire on his sound system, flying at a low altitude across one of the beautiful beaches of Florida in his Cobra (attack helicopter form). He sensed an oddly familiar presence up ahead. Nightridge!
"Cannon ball of sand alert!" KARR declared.
He accelerated somewhat and then made a casual descent, transforming into his Autobot form during the last 40 feet. Moving in fast, he slammed deep into the ground in the form of a huge black ball very close to Nightridge, causing a giant wave of sand to explode from around him as he slammed into the soft earth.
Landing in a kneel/crouch, KARR wriggled up a bit and his bright yellow double scanner turned to Nightridge, his shoulders barely emerging from the pile of sand. "Hello sexy!"

Hereing the familar voice Nightridge barely had time to move out of the way, visor flashing slightly in annoyance and what would be partial amusement. She hadn't seen car for soem time now but it was odd seeing the mech again since their little destruction spree back in Alaska to wich Nightridge still thought had been worth it eve if they got into trouble. But the last words made her look at KARR as if he was soemone she'd never met before to which she had just met KARR back then. "Hellp to you too." She replied. "And when exactly would you ocnsider me 'sexy'?"She asked.

"When, why? Does it matter?" KARR grunted as he wriggled the rest of his body out of the sand. He shook himself vigorously for a second or two, shaking it all off before sitting with one knee raised. KARR played with the sand, punching in random places rapidly like it was some kind of weird game (if only there were small animals to punch at in the sand). KARR would be surprised if she didn't remember the definition, but he was pretty sure she did. "I just said it because it was a cool greeting." KARR said, which was true. Of course there was the unmentioned fact that KARR seemed interested in Nightridge-which is fairly rare of him.

Nightridge shrugged knowing what he meant, "Though it's funny to see you here KARR. It's been some time since the destruction in Alaska to which I've ehard they are still cleaning the mess up." The femme smirked slightly knowing it'd take months to maybe years ebfore the cities were rebuilt to being liviable again or workable. Turning her gaze to the ocean she watched the waves crash against the shore and go back again in an unbreakable rhythm and her visor dimmmed slightly in deep thought.
"Hey KARR, do you really think it's worth destroying this planet? There are some places that may be worth keeping around just we don't need the humans here." She said. Looking back at KARR her visor went back to it's normal dark blue, "I mean we could easily exterminate this palnet's inhabitants without breaking a sweat."

"I don't know if Megatron cares about that...I don't even know if I do either." KARR replied with a shrug. "But you're kinda right. I don't know what Cybertonia is like, but maybe some of us see Earth as home now whether we realize it or not...I mean it's BEEN my home but honestly I don't care if it gets destroyed...we have other places we could go to, including going back to Cybertronia...hell I haven't been there. The thing that The Fallen wanted last year was destroyed, so I don't really know what else Megatron and Nemesis want, other than those brats..." he said.

Hmmm...I see it differently to be honest, never fully agreed with anything from either faction. On one side there's the chance to rid of the hiumans and give us more of a chance to try and destroy the Autobtos or on the other keep hiding and just keep letting our kind be picked off one by one." Nightridge shook her head at the thoughts and looked at the sand. Taking some in her hand she let it fall through ehr fingers and looked at the small mound of sand remaining in her palm. "It jsut seems...pointless to keep hiding and then attacking when it SEEMS right when we have every chance to attack and we ignore it. The only reason i don't go on a similar path of destruction like we did back in Alaska, only bigger is because I'm not looking forward to getting my spark extinguished so quickly" She sighed.

"We attack when we think we have the best opportunities." KARR corrected her, his tone slightly gruff. He sat back, letting his heavy body sink into the sand some under his weight. KARR appeared to be staring att he ground in front of him in slight thought; his scanner that covered the optics proceeded to pace back and forth with that faint hum, forever moving in that hyptonizing demeanor.
"I respect Megatron and all, but not so much most of the others. I just do as I damn well please if I can get away with it. I'm not fully part of their heirarchy even though I have a spark now-quite independent really. Seeing how its been a while since we invaded Alaska I highly doubt Nemesis or Megatron will do much in terms of punishment. From MY point of view, I think I did them a favor, shaking up a stategic location in the United States--I think it was worth the risk and fun." It was almost as though he was saying the leaders could damn well bite him for all he cared, though perhaps at the same time, that assumption was slightly extreme.

Nightridge nodded then sighed, "Maybe it's not woth putting too muhc thought into I guess. Besides it's a too nice of a day to be thinking about it much, whatever happens it happens and I don't really get involved with allt hat huge palnning stuff any how." Leaning back against a sand dune once more Nightridge offlined her optics relaxing alittle to enjoy the time off and no intereference from the Autobots. "Hmmmm...I don't which environment is better,moun tianous and warm climate or sandy ocean shores and hot climate." She said idily.

"Same, I usually do my own thing...unless Megatron demands otherwise." KARR said with a shrug. He thought a moment and stared at the water."I don't know really, I'm used to the city. It's nice to be out in the mountains once in a while. Four-wheeling in the winter, that's fun stuff."

"Yea,snow isn't so bad I guess." Ngihtridge replied onlining ehr optics and for once letting her visor slid bakc into ehr help blinking dark blue optics."I'm not normally one for large groups honestly,seems too much of a ahssle." She began tracing a finger int eh sand not really making anything in particular but just for the fun of it.On the otherside of the wall of palm trees the femme could ehar the playful screams of the humans enjoying the warm waves and water,spalshing around with no care in the world.

KARR was listening to the sounds at the beach and the humans interacting as well, along with the crashing waves. "I was good for a short time before I got my new form and left Knight Industries to become a Decepticon. But it was someone else's dream, not mine. Apparently it didn't go well when they discovered I wouldn't change. What's so wrong with it? One of the worst things I've done WAS invading Alaska. I only dared do it cause I've only had this much power for a couple Earth years now." KARR said. He shrugged, staying in his current, fairly relaxed position. "I like being the way I am. Change can only be accomplished if you're willing, even then, its hard to keep the changes. Old habits can come back like a cold if you're not careful."

Nightridge listened and could only nod, "Yea old habits are hard to be rid of....". As easy it had to have changed sides it was harder to change who someone had been raised and trained ot be like, in theeir own way of course but after awhile it rubbe doff on you. Tryign to change who you hav ebeocme and what you were becoming would take time. Looking at the faded red of her old symbol Nightridge sighed and shook her head."In speaking of habits when we were crushing that fort I almost did try and stop. Being an Autobot most of my programming is still taking time to change I suppose." She said shrugging. Again she lie dback against the sand dune trying to relax again.

KARR glanced at Nightridge, though his scanners hid the slightly surprised look on his face. "I may seem crazier," He muttered, leaning back on his hands, shifting to face the ocean. "But it seems that is something we have in common. All though, when I was created, they intended for me to be good like KITT, but at the time could not fix my program so they immediately shut me down to prevent me from doing damage. And that's what brought me here today. Their collective failures."
KARR didn't mean to sound dark...he didn't really care about that. It was nothing worth brooding over anymore. History left the facts and he could not change the history, and he didn't want anything changed.

"You on the side of good? That just doesn't seem your style to be honest KARR. A handsome mech like you, it'd be a scary and weird sight to see ont he Autobots in my opinion." Nightridge said as she thought about it. She glanced at KARR for a moemnt then back at the waves crashing against the shore. It seemed the waves were hitting a lowerpart of the beach so the femme assume dit was 'low' tide as the humans called it. Shifting ehr pstion alittle Nightridge leaned her head back looking at the dark blue sky seeing patchs of puffy white cloduds here and there. "To be honest, right now I don't really care if the Autobots come I'd much rathe rdo my own thing then always taking orders." She said.
