Gotta go fast

Chapter 2

Knock out would never usually leave the ship during the day unless it was for a mission as he preferred his nightly activities of racing against the humans but in this case he had to escape the constant rambling going on around the Nemesis. He had already finished most of his daily projects and fixed a couple of vehicons already so it wasn't like the others could say that he hadn't done his part for the cause. He hadn't really had a good look around Jasper seeing as whenever he was there it was usually at the night and he never had enough time to properly take a look at what the humans called home. He was driving steadily through the town watching as all the humans walked along the pathway, he really didn't understand much about the humans and the way they lived their lives. As he drove by he took particular notice of the buildings around him. Cafes, restaurants, beauty shops something he saw as unnecessary. "Pathetic humans" he grumbled driving past a fast food restaurant.

A while afterwards he pulled over to one side of the road watching as the humans walked past, most of them taking a glance at him as they walked past. Something he admired as he took valuable time accomplishing his goal of looking fabulous. "Hey Birch, you sure there's nothing I can do for you?" Knock out's attention was snapped back to reality by the sound of the name. It took a while but he managed remember where he heard it before. "No Jack believe me, you've helped me out plenty of time before" It clicked then the voice it was the same as well as the name from a couple of nights ago when he had gone racing against the humans again. He paid close attention to where the voice had come from across the street at what seemed to be a mechanics garage.

He glanced over to her, immediately recognising the thin curves on her body and the chocolate brown hair that she had now tied back. As well as her clothing had changed from their last encounter, she was now wearing baggy trousers and a half sleeves top with a backpack on her. She had appeared to be walking out of the garage with a laptop in her arms. "Well I'll drop it off tomorrow afternoon"

She smiled at the older man giving him a hug before leaving and walking down the street. He watched as she disappeared into another building. As soon as she left his sight he quickly zoomed off towards where she had gone and stopped outside it, looking in through the window he could see her att he counter talking to another human, she began laughing before taking a pile of something from the human and leaving. As she exited the building and her attention was draw to the aston martin parked there that wasn't there before she went inside to collect her mail. She gave it a frown before placing her items in her backpack and throwing it over her shoulder. She shrugged as she left again this time she walked right in front of him and crossed the road heading straight for the shop opposite that seemed to be some sort of techy shop for the humans. Knock out then recognised her bike that was parked outside the shop, he figured that she ridden it to town from where ever she was staying outside of town.

He couldn't make out much from his position but it looked like girl had taken some things out of her backpack and handed them over to the man at the counter. It didn't take long for her to come back outside now holding something in her hand that she seemed to be counting. She gave a big grin when she had finished and gave the sports car a quick glance before putting the object in her pocket and climbing on her bike, her helmet being placed on her head again like before. It didn't take long for her to then ride off down the main street heading out of town.

Knock out deciding to have a little bit of fun with the humans before leaving himself, he would have to follow after her along that street if he was to be able to call for a ground bridge back to the ship. He mostly had in mind annoying them with their traffic laws.

It was early evening when the medic had finally left the town, he needed to get far enough away from it so that no one would see him transform. He was quite far away as he recognised the turning up ahead was the race track that he had gone to. It was at this point that he really increased his speed giving in to his desires to be fast. His attention was taken away from his thoughts as he noticed dust being thrown in the air and there was low sound of an engine rumbling. He didn't need to think as he skidded into the area of the race course and rolled up to the start. He couldn't quite see who was racing around as the dust clouded air and made it impossible to see but he hoped that it would be the human that he had beaten before, he made entertainment in his frustration of losing. Beating him in the race was too easy.
