((Someplace in Nevada, 8 pm, Aug 10th 2027))
Where the hell had he ended up? The poor blue Autobot medic was having a good bit of trouble with his GPS, it told him to go this was to get to base, but this was not base and, honestly, he had no Earthly or otherworldly clue where he was. He did know one thing however, there was desert, lots and lots of desert and, oh yea, more desert. "Man, how much did I drink last night? I swear my navigation systems told me home was here. . ." he muttered to himself. Somehow in his high grade induced stupor he had managed to totally screw up his GPS and gotten himself into THIS lovely mess. He sighed then, sitting down and deciding to swallow his pride and try to call someone to help his sorry aft, before he got too much sand where sand never should be.
He opened up Autobot coms, sighed and went on with what he needed to do ="Ummm, guys, you're gonna laugh at me, but I kinda need a hand here. I sort of, well, managed to. . ."= he gave a heavy sigh then, half expecting to get slag for this ="Look, I'm lost, my navigation system messed up when I tried to go home and brought me goodness knows where. All I know is there's a lot of desert and not a whole lot of anything else. Can someone help me? I have no idea where I ended up here. I swear my GPS told me this was home last night."= he sent over coms, bracing for laughter, sounds of disappointment, what have you that may come from his little message.

Though it was an odd place to be driving Speedwind was enjoying the freedom of the open space in the desert, speeding as fast as her alternate form and Cybertronian systems would allow, which was faster then any earth made vehicle. The scout saw no harm in goofing off again and having no higher ups looking at you with a scolding gaze like you were some sparkling, it was just plain annoying. Speedwind did a few drifts here and there, kicking up sand and dust every time before a com message caught her attention and was surprised it was from the medic assistant Jolt.
Inwardly shaking her head she followed his signal after scanning the coordinates from the message,<"Hang on a bit there Jolt heading your way now."> She replied over the private com though she doubted she'd be hard to miss beig a dark red and practically kicking up sand as she sped towards him. Though after a little while she caught sight of some blue ahead and guessed that was him so being so close she unmasked her signal so he'd know she was coming and was an ally.

<"Oh thank Primus, I had sand where sand should neeeeever be introduced, my, well, Navigations malfunctions badly this time!"> he replied to Speedwind, watching as she and the massive dust trail behind her made it his way, sensing her signature and seeing her, he transformed to his true for and waved "You move fast! Nice to see a friendly face. It's a lot more reassuring than more sand or the occasional cactus!!" he called out to the red car, a smile on his face. He was relieved, very relieved, though he knew Ratchet was going to tell him off and intro his head to a wrench again for this, but hey, not like it was his fault. Well, technically is kind of was considering he's the one who drank so much his navigation systems got a little screwy, but he was so not going to let Ratchet, or anyone, know that detail.

<"No problem."> She answered and when she got close transformed, skidding to a halt near Jolt before facing him,"Well benefits of a fast form and well being aerodynamic I guess." She said retracting her mask and raising her visor, smiling a bit as she looked at Jolt though couldn't help but wonder how his navigational systems had been messed up unless he was doing something that was likely to get Ratchet after his aft. "Good thing someone else was out here though otherwise well you might be going in circles." She said with a small smile,"But I'll lead you out and back to base." She offered.

Jolt smiled to her, nodding, though he couldn't help but look her over. Aerodynamic indeed, sleek little femme too, rather attractive. He then mentally kicked himself and brought his optics back up to her face, he really didn't need to tick off a femme who was going to be helping him. He brought a hand up to rub the back of his head at that point "Thanks, I appreciate it. I was kind of going in circles earlier, I think I passed that cactus about 8 times already today." he said with a slight chuckle as he pointed to one fat looking cactus nearby. "I'm glad you were out here though, otherwise who knows how many more times I would have passed that cactus." he said, nodding a bit "Alright, then, lead the way." he said transforming back into his alt mode.

speedwind didn't notice him checking her out and transformed, "Names Speedwind by the way, forgot introductions." She added inwardly face palming for not doing so before. Revveing her engine she started back the way she had come, which hadn't been but a few miles from the road but far enough no one would have caught sight of her. Though it was lucky for Jolt he had a ally out here and not a random con looking for a fight. "So Jolt just curious how'd you end up way out here? Kind of odd for your systems to be acting up for that to happen." She said trying to strike up a conversation and was a bit curious how he came out here.

"It's fine, it happens, took me a moment too because of the whole, you know, someone was close enough to find me excitement." he said with a chuckle as he followed her, driving almost besides her when she asked how he got out here. "Some glitch or something, I mean, I had a little high grade, not a lot, tried to get home and my navigational systems couldn't even find North! I ended up here and have been driving in circles since I woke up. Not the first time some glitch has happened with my navigational systems, this time was just worse than before, a lot worse."

"High grade huh? It'll do that." Speedwind said laughing a bit, though not to make fun of him. "Well you've been found and not lost any more so there's some good luck on your side yet." She said though it wasn't long before the speedster saw the road ahead of them racing past where she had been speeding around before. "Though less we get a space bridge it'll be a long ride home, even if we went at full speed and making sure not to get lost." Speedwind said and drove onto the road.

"Hmmmm. . ." Jolt emoted as he drove alongside her "You know, a space bridge isn't a half bad idea, of course we'd have to get someone over there who can open it for us to reply, you're the only one who responded to my com before, not sure if the others are even paying mind, but maybe they'll answer you. I kind of, get answered with silence a lot." he said, venting slightly.

"Well I did recently get a space bridge generator, not sure I can get us right onto the tarmac but close enough it'd be a short drive." Speedwind said now just thinking about it and slowed enough to start putting in coordinates, a space bridge opening in front of them and she sped through it coming to land on the outer parts of Washington DC and transformed. "Well least we're close to Washington." She said and rubbed the back of her neck looking back at Jolt.

Jolt followed her through, transforming once he had passed the outskirts of the space bridge "OK, I have GOT to get me one of those, seriously!" he said grinning a bit as he looked over Speedwind once more before briskly shaking his head, a thoughtful expression coming over his face, tapping his chin with a single finger "Hmm, wonder if I could talk Ratchet into helping my get one, would make helping in battle a lot easier." he said before nodding, deciding he would ask, after all, he would be able to help bots a lot easier with something like that.

Speedwind smiled but found her gaze wandering slightly before looking towards the city really quick, now what was getting over her mind? "No kidding, you could really use one with what you do. Besides I'm sure Ratchet would let you." She said looking back at the blue mech. He really didn't seem that bad of a mech, goofy yes but in a good way and well attractive too. To her at least. Shaking her head Speedwind pushed those thoughts back and wondered if she hit her head or something at one point.

Jolt gave a goofy grin there, nodding "True, I have a good reason for asking." he said before something got his attention "Well hello, what are you little guy?" he said beginning to walk over to what looked like a raccoon nearby, the creature just looked at him before turning tail and running, Jolt then activated his holoform to try to chase the little guy down without risking scaring or hurting it with his real for, his true self transforming back into his alt mode "Hey, come back little fuzzy thing, I just want to look at you!" his holoform called out, chasing the raccoon.

"Jolt you probably don't want to mess with that!"Speedwind called then transformed, activating her holo-form and running after him. He really was a curious one when it came to earth animals though, which she hoped that didn't result in the raccoon biting him. But of course the raccoon wasn't going to stop when something twice as big as itself was chasing it either, and well from what Speedwind knew they weren't always friendly.

"But it's cute!" Jolt protested, coming to a halt when the raccoon stopped, turned around and started hissing at his holoform "Hey, hey little fuzzy thing, I'm not going to hurt you." he told it, but it didn't seem to want to listen, and soon two more raccoons came out of the bushes then, before Jolt knew it, he was the one being chased. The raccoons started running after his holoform, his holoform turned and ran from the raccoon, and the whole scene became much more amusing than it ever should have "Remind me next time this fuzzy thing is mean!!!" he called out as his holoform ran pass Speedwind's, raccoons hot on his heels. "HE HAD FRIENDS!!!"
