The skies were a dark clear blue, with very little clouds floating above the busy continent of Australia. Just above in the sky was also a blue and yellow Blue Angel jet, though some humans would think it was a lone daredevil just trying out dangerous stunts. But with a closer view and ont he near tips of the wings was the Autobot symbol indicating the alligance of a transformer that only very few knew of. However, the autobot didn't care much for hunting Decepticons or mingling with fellow Autobots. Skyrider was more fo a lone wolf willing to do dangerous stunts when she felt like it but when in robot mode she was lazy and a slacker, ahrdly doing any work.
Just as she left the populated outer parts near the coast she flew deeper to the Outback as the humans called it. Transforming she landed on the edge of a valley; the valley went down steeply to a area with much vegetation and lots of cover from any prying eyes.Sighing, she flew down and landed among the thick growing trees being carefuly of where she stepped or sat.

Cira Knight was on duty (in a full fledged flight suit with survival gear) tracking down an unknown Blue Angel. Cira hadn't seen the Autobot symbol on the stabilizer of the aircraft while in persuit of it, and she also hadn't encountered any Autobots at the NEST base that had a form like one of the Blue Angels. There was a chance she'd seen the bot, but it was also possible the bot was relatively new and hadn't been to either of the NEST bases yet. Cira assumed the later, because the NEST base she was based at requested she track this one down since it was an unknown Blue Angel.
The Blue Angel hadn't been a threat thus far, but they wanted some confirmation, and so did Cira, because she was curious as soon as she heard about it. Landing on an isolated gravel strip as close as Cira could get to where the unknown Blue Angel landed, she parked the jet and secured it, taking the ignition key with her.
She trekked a couple miles across the hot and dry outback with a metal canteen of water and her two revolvers with her. Cira changed out of her flight suit because she was hot and she had clothes underneath, grabbing her ipod, she played some rock music while scanning for the Blue Angel that transformed and landed in the distance. She adjusted her backpack and carried on, walking at a fast pace. "Gah, the heat sucks..." she complained to no one in particular as she moved a long.
Quite some time later, her GPS beeped. Locked in on Skyriders signal, Cira knew she was getting closer, well with in a mile of her current location...Getting closer and closer still, Cira hummed to a random song by Dope as she searched for the autobot. "I know you're out here somewhere..." she muttered. Huffing a sigh, she slowed down.

Skyrider was lazying among the trees, minding her own business and completely oblivious of being follwoed by Cira until ehr scanners ahd picked up on the jet at last. To what would an Earth jet be following her for? Had tere been soemthing she had done or needed to get cleared? Sighing at being bothered on her lesiure time Skyrider stood and flew up high; the valley wasn't that far down so it wouldn't take long to get airbourne. Upon arising from the tree tops she spotted the human within seconds and landed, the ground shaking slightly. "There a problem?" She asked wiht obvious annoyance, but had the Australian accent.

"H-hi." Cira said, waving at Skyridge awkwardly after the bot landed before her, taking an ear bud out of her left ear. "I was just trying to identify the Blue Angel that was flyin' around here...It had no tail number and the NEST wanted me to identify it, cause we've seen it out and about for about a month now...you're not in trouble or anything...we were just curious..." Cira said, tugging at the neck of her loose black shirt from feeling pretty hot and sweaty.She then set down her helmet which had built in flight goggles. Cira had changed her shoes and everything so she could be more comfortable out here and not remain stuck in her flight suit.
Cira sat down right in front of Skyridge and took off her sneakers that were already reddened with sand. "Ugg. Australia sure is nice and all but damn...the sand. So um...I saw it land around here a while ago. Was it you?" she complained as she shook them out.

Skyrider made a look, almost close to a frown. So one of the NEST bases had foudn ehr at last had they? Well this was going tobe a difficult situation mos tlikely if she was told she HAD to come to one of the bases to which she woudl refuse or fly off if they decided to try and force her. "Yea, that's me. If the NEST bases are so concerned now they don't have to be, I'm an Autobot but a loner as well. This war has little emaning to me and I will not take aprt in these useless hunts for Decepticons when they will never all be exterminated like roches on this planet." Skyrider replied in her Australian accented voice.

"Fair enough. No one is forcing you. But it makes me wonder why you moved here if you're not set on helping...Just to see a new world I guess?" Cira asked glancing up at the large bot while she was still tying her shoes again."I just needed to confirm you were an Autobot. I will not make you come to either NEST base. What's your name?"

"The name is Skyrider and I am a loner Autobot. I came to Earth hoping to have a less chance of my my showing but it seems at some point I amy end up going to one fo the NEST bases here. BUt there are reasons to why I do not fight in this war, though I know a human may understand as well." Skyrider said. The truth was she was a loner for a long time despite being young in her age though wondered if the NEST base would inform any Autobot of her presense.

Cira turned off her GPS. "I'm Cira Knight., I work with the NEST. Why do you not want to help fight?" she asked, standing up. Her a10 helmet rested at her left side tucked under her arm.

"Help? Pah! The only thing that seems to be going on is a mindless war, we fight just bcause we do not agree on things or some stupid mech has a few wires crossed and wants power, to which in my opinion is a compelte waste of what we had! Cybertron suffered because of this and also because of the damn Allspark." Skyrider said, slight anger in her voice. "Do I realy need to explain what I mean, Cira Knight. Earth will suffer from our mindless war jsut because of how it was on the Transformers home planet." She sighed. Glancing around and back down into the valley it seemed a beautiful planet like this would have a huge impact on the Autobots no doubt. That was one reason she did not fihgt.

"N-no...That's reason enough..." Cira said awkwardly. "It is indeed a shame at times, that things must be this way...but the way I see it, I have to help protect my people when I can...no harm in that. Anyway..." she stepped back a little, unsure of what to do or say next to the bot. "We'll drop the subject. I can tell you just want to be alone out here..." she turned and began to walk away, reaching for her radio to contact the NEST as she did so, just to confirm that the unidentified aircraft was an Autobot. Talking into the radio, she made an order to make sure no one else went after Skyrider, and did not give coordinates.

Skyrider only eatched Cira then looked at the horizon for a long time before sighing. Maybe they did fight for something but why every day? This could takes months, eyars even to accomplish and even then it may have never ended. At this thought Skyrider turne dback to Cira, ahting to ahve to say her thoughts, "Actually Cira tellt he NEST base I am avaliable when it is most needed." She said.

"All right, thankyou." she spoke into the radio, announcing the change. Suddenly a garbled distress call came in on the radio. "Reports of several ELT's going off and destroyed and cars smashed 100 miles north west of Juneau, two Decepticons headed towards Juneau. Need immediate aid from NEST. Decepticons are starting to cause serious damage and are terrorizing the highway. 7 helicopters have been taken down along with a couple police cars."
Cira sighed. "Oh great...Another long flight back to the US...as soon as I get here." she glanced back at Skyridge. "You don't have to help. But I gotta hurry." she turned to the personal watch communicator on her hand. The thick, black and shiny metal watch glistened in the sunlight. "KITT I'm going to need your help. Send a message to the NEST I need a fleet of A10's sent to Juneau Alaska. Tell them I'll meet them there..." With that said, she ran forward as fast as her human legs could carry her, noting she'd have to change back into her flight suit when she got to the airstrip.
