Month 3, Week 2, Day 1, Open. German Autobahn. No real goal, just general mayhem. HAVE FUN. ;D______________________________ The German Autobahn. The only highway in the world where the speed limit is merely a suggestion. Ever since it's been built it has been used as a public race track by anyone with a need for speed. But it's never seen anything like the metal monsters that are currently racing at break neck speeds, zigzagging through Dutch tourists and German commuters, barely avoiding crashing into them. One of them, a truly one of a kind high end sports car is having the time of his life, cackling over the shortwave radio band as he threatens to ram an hybrid that's packed with a formerly-happy-family, barely missing them. //Hahahahaaa! Oh, it's been a while since I had this much fun!//

//Ten points for cars with those stupid "baby on board" signs!//
Fracture darts through traffic then hurls herself into a controlled spin across four lanes. Horns blare and brakes scream, and she just laughs in delight.

//Oh, my dear instrument of destruction, we're in Germany! Here, it's "Baby An Bord"!// Knock Out is quick to follow, zigzagging past the cars and drifting around some that are spinning out of control, their drivers send panicking by the maniacal Formurderla-1 car. One of these he gives a calculated little tap, swerving and tapping them with his rear, sending it crashing right into another car. //Oops, clumsy me!//

//Tch! Come on, pretty boi, show me some style!// Fracture feints to the left, causing a driver to jerk to the side into a pair of motorcyclists. Then she jinks to the right, hooking her front wheels with someone's expensive sportscar then hitting reverse hard.
His tire comes off before hers does.

-What- did she just do to that innocent, beautiful car!? //HEY! Hands off the ones with sweet rims!// They're here to terrorize the yokels, not the elite! He gives chase, barely dodging a flying motorcycle, honking at the car she hurt before trying to get vengeance by trying to ram her to gently nudge her. Not too hard of course, he doesn't want to scratch his paint! Just hers!

//It's just a machine,// Fracture scoffs. //What are you, some kind of pervert?//
Then he rams gently nudges her. At this speed, it sends her slamming into another car, denting its side and scraping her paint. Her engine revs, and she cackles. //Wuss!//

//Pervert? How dare you! I prefer to think of myself as a connoisseur!//
Oho, now that's an enjoyable sound she makes! He hates scratching that perfect, sleek body, but she had it coming! He meets her cackle with a short, haughty laugh, only to stop once she insults him. //My, a glutton for punishment, aren't we?// With a loud roar of his engine he drives up beside her and swerves to the side, once again trying to send her crashing into another car.

//They're unliving machines! That's like ogling drones!// As Knock Out pulls up beside her, Fracture slams on the brakes. By now, the two cars are being given as wide a berth as possible, and she drops back smoothly.
Knock Out slides into the lane ahead of her, and Fracture puts the metal to the pedal! Time for a fenderbender, pretty boi!

Now, the thing about the Autobahn is the high speeds. Traffic flashes past in a blink and everything moves at a blinding pace. It's a magnet for speed junkies and owners of flashy, high-performance sports cars alike. It's the ultimate in high-velocity thrills available to anyone with the means to get there.
And it still crawls along behind Blurr. Even when he throttles back – because going full-speed around all these other cars will only mean trouble and he certainly has no interest in causing highway mayhem; what does he look like, a Stunticon? – he still darts by and past other vehicles like they're standing still. In the single, snug seat, Haywire watches the world swirl past and sulks.
"It's really hard to wave at the cute Earth girls when they're half a mile behind us by the time I realise they were there," he grumbles.
"I could try to slow down more," Blurr offers. He's a little miffed that his partner is focused on girls, but in the same breath, he understands better than most how frustrated Haywire gets.
"You mean it?" Haywire visibly brightens, sitting up straighter in the seat and grinning. Blurr laughs at him.
"Of course I mean it! Would I say it if I didn't mean it?" he says gaily. But then he passes a wreck. And another. Three more. He might be wrong, and he doubts that he is, but this doesn't look right at all. As he rounds a bend, he sees a car ramming another from behind. Even if all the wrecks he's passed aren't the direct handiwork of this would-be Wildrider – the shape actually reminds Blurr of Drag Strip, not Wildrider, but the colours are all wrong for either of them – odds are good they're wrecked because of it. Haywire, too, sees the mess. "…Change of plans," Blurr murmurs.
"Yeah, I know," Haywire replies, not quite grim but close, as he grabs his helmet from between his knees. He makes the broadband call while Blurr catches up the offender like they were no more than a step behind all this time. //Major traffic incidents on the Autobahn. Blurr and I are on the scene.//
"Stop this right now!" Blurr shouts as he pulls alongside, trying to be as concise and authoritative as possible.

//As long as they are well made, I will enjoy the craftsmanship that went into them!//
The expected gentle tap doesn't come. Instead Fracture proves herself to be quite crafty, not to mention fast! He swerves to the side, trying to dodge the incoming fenderbender and failing, hard. //ARGH! Do you know how hard it was to find that!? It was a limited edition! You'll pay for that!//
But before he can return the favor, he's distracted by a rather sexy blue car. "Oho, what do we have here!" Knock Out moves closer to Blurr, trying to keep up with the Autobot, whistling sharply. "A curvy, mouthy one! And blue! Oh, you are ticking all the right boxes!"

Fracture cackles. //You'll get payment out of my cold, dead hands! Toughen up, pretty boi!//
"Stop what?" she asks in a mean and teasing tone, nipping forward to tailgate Knock Out. "Trying to make this wuss weld on his armor and act like a real mech? Tch!"

Blurr, did he–
I think so and no I don't know what to think about it but what I think about it isn't important now anyway. Okay, so the cars talk. They don't look like any Autobots Blurr has met lately – except for the… girl? He thinks the one in back is a girl. Sounds sort of girlish. She kind of reminds him of Mirage with that build.
More importantly, however, he sees that emblem near her cockpit. Haywire locks his helmet on and Blurr scowls. He fires off information on the rear car over broadband so rapidly it'll have to be decompressed on the other end; he isn't deliberately trying to pull another Autobot City, but without thinking, he just does it. Meanwhile, Haywire transitions to his hardpoint on Blurr's bonnet and now the rocket car is armed. And angry.
"You've done enough damage!" he snaps. Then Haywire opens fire on them both mere nanoseconds before Blurr veers sharply over, trying to ram them off the road rather than stop them dead in the middle of the highway.

//That can be arranged!//
"Damnit, Fracture, I am trying to be smooth here! Stop messing with my game!" Knock Out growls as he quickly shifts lane, dodging Fracture's little attempt to bend his fender further. But this leaves him open for Blurr, howling in protest as those electro-laser blasts graze his body, sending some of his systems on the fritz and making him swerve while his engine stutters.
"You SPAWN OF A-" Not that he gets much time to complain, with Blurr's ram succeeding and sending him veering off the road! He rolls over a few times, transforming during it and rolling a bit more before he comes to a stop, rising up on one knee. There is murder in his eyes as one hand is replaced with a blaster while the other pulls out his staff*, whirling it around. "Oh, it's time to get my game on alright! The murder game!"
*: It doesn't have the energoprod on the end.

//So can your face!//
"Well, at least you're hitting on a real person this time!" Then Blurr opens fire on her and Knock Out. Her engine snarls as a few shots pepper her side, knocking out circuits in an alarming matter. She just laughs.
Even as Blurr drives Knock Out off the road, Fracture drops back to get behind the blue Autobot, then starts blasting away with the negative energy blaster mounted on her nose.

Hm. Only one knocked off, and he sounds mad. The girl is laughing.
We-eeeird, is Haywire's only comment. Blurr transforms and veers to one side to evade her fire, returning with another volley of his own. He needs to get her stopped and off the road before there are even more humans embroiled in this mess.
