The Land Rover stepped next to the black sportscar and knelt down. "Better." He rested a hand near her roof and reached in to wipe the dirt from the interior. "Lemme know if I'm missin' anythin' and gotta finish in holoform."

Blizzard laughed to herself as Dissever moved up beside her. And just where do you think you are going? She nosed up a bit more.

Raven quietly laughed as Rewire worked. It tickles! "I'll let you know if you miss anything, don't worry about that."

Showtime followed suit, heading outside and transforming to her alt. It felt good to be getting away from the base, if only for a short while. It would be good to simply drive, no matter how things went with Sam and Mikaela.

Bumblebee led the way into Tranquility, his radio playing as he switched stations every so often. He enjoyed the impressed looks his alt got as he drove past, and it showed on his holoform's face. Finally he pulled up in front of Sam's house and honked. The teenager's face appeared at a window, and he waved, making a 'just-a-sec' motion before vanishing from sight. After a few moments, he came outside, grinning. "Hey Bee! You brought a friend?"Sam headed over to the two sports cars, giving the Corvette a friendly wave.

Showtime's holoform flickered to life, sitting on the hood of the Corvette. "Hello there..." The female holoform smiled a little. "I do believe we've met before, briefly...My designation is Showtime..."

"Huh? Oh yeah!"Sam nodded. "Yeah, I remember. Nice alt-mode." He smiled and Bee swung open the passenger-side door. "Sam. Come on, we can all chat once we get Mikaela and reach the lookout, alright?" Sam climbed in. "Okay." Bee shut the door and pulled out again.

Showtime's holoform vanished and then re-appeared inside her alt, and the Corvette-disguised Autobot followed Bumblebee and Sam.

Sam tensed slightly as Bee clicked the seatbelt into place, then reminded himself that he was sitting in Bee, not one of the Decepticons. Bumblebee noted the slight change in the human's behavior. "Are you okay?" Sam nodded. "Yeah...just...still kinda freaks me out now, after learning just how easy it is to be trapped when the car is sentient..."He shook his head. A low rumbling growl came from Bee's engine. He'd noticed the bruises on Sam and Mikaela when they had been rescued. "I'm really sorry I couldn't protect you from them, or get you both back sooner."He loosened the seatbelt a little. Sam patted the dashboard. "It's okay, 'Kaela and I are still here, right? And not completely traumatized. Just next time you see that ass, punch him once for me and twice for Mikaela, would you?" Bee had to laugh. "I will."

Showtime followed Bumblebee, amusing herself by flipping through various radio stations, making mental notes as to which stations offered classical music, which offered...Showtime's holoform arched an eyebrow at the genre name, an amused chuckle escaping. She knew of a certain silver mech who would probably find the genre name amusing as well. Shuffling that note aside for the moment, Showtime commed Bumblebee. Not to sound impatient or anything, but how much further do we have to drive?

We need to get Mikaela, then it's a few miles to the lookout. Bumblebee pulled up in front of Mikaela's house and opened the door for Sam. He clambered out and hurried up to the door as the blond in the driver's seat vanished. A few minutes later, Sam and Mikaela both emerged and approached the two vehicles. Mikaela smiled at Bumblebee. "Hey, Bee. Nice to see you again."She looked over at Showtime and frowned thoughtfully. "Have we met before? I think I remember you."

Showtime's holoform nodded, before moving outside of the Corvette. "Yes, we've met, briefly...Shortly after you and Sam were rescued, before Bumblebee returned you to your home...My designation is Showtime...."

"Oh, I remember now."Mikaela smiled and climbed into the passenger seat as Sam took the driver's seat and lightly held the steering wheel to give the appearance of driving. Bee pulled away from the sidewalk again.

Showtime's holoform smiled, before doing the whole 'vanish-then-reappear-inside' thing, and soon the Corvette was following after the Camero.

After a few minutes, Bee pulled up to the lookout. He opened his doors and the humans climbed out and stepped back to give him room to transform. He sat down carefully, picking up Sam and Mikaela to set them on his shoulders. They shifted a little to get comfortable before sitting still. Mikaela looked over at Showtime. "So, we didn't really talk before, with all the crap that had happened. What do you do?"

Showtime had slowed to a stop a short distance away, transforming out of her alt and stretching a bit. At Mikaela's question, she glanced over and smiled a little. "I'm primarily a sniper...but one of the things I've got programming for is in counseling...Even though, at times, it seems like I tend to make things worse..." She shrugged a little. "I just...If I see someone who seems to have something on their processor, I want to help them..."

Mikaela nodded. "Cool. Have you had to do it a lot?"

Showtime blinked a bit, before responding. "Sniping? or Counseling? If you're referring to sniping, I've had to do quite a bit, since shortly after I got my adult protoform...Counseling, not quite as much...I've helped a few mechs and femmes with problems...but there've been others who I couldn't help...and a few that I've actually kinda fragged off by trying to help..." She said the last part sheepishly, remembering that she should probably apologize to Red Alert at some point soon.

Mikaela nodded. "Makes sense." She glanced at Sam and Bee, who had somehow gotten into a discussion about females of both species. The girl rolled her eyes and gave Showtime a look that read "men!"

Showtime chuckled in amusement, shaking her head a bit. "Why am I not surprised?"

Skyfire couldn't help but feel some of the tension in his wires relax at the sound of Optimus Primes voice.
I Copy Optimus Prime I'm coming in for a landing. Clear the area.
