Author's Notes:
Written for NaNo! =D
The others never really understood his fascination with the Earth. Most of them were more than ready to return to Cybertron at the first chance they got but not Hound. He wanted to see the world; all of Earth that is. He wanted to explore everything that it had to offer and more, if that was possible. The green mech already spent most of his time out and about, always volunteering for scouting missions when they came up, always being thorough about it but at the same time, taking his time to enjoy the world around him.
Maybe it had something to do with the animals. That was what some of the other Autobots had suggested upon spying the green mech bird watching one day. Another theory was that he just liked the new surroundings and would soon get bored of it, but many shot that idea down. A few had asked the green mech flat out but he had never really be able to answer.
There really was no solid answer to the question.
He loved the land and the sky, the water and the weather, the wildlife and the cities. The seasons changing was one of his favorite things about the planet they were currently on, Fall being his absolute favorite. There was just something about the leaves changing and falling that delighted him to no end, as Sunstreaker found out when he was covered with an armful of leaves one day.
Earth was just so different from Cybertron, so much more welcoming in a weird sort of way. It didn't feel as cold as their home world sometimes felt and, while everything was a lot smaller, it was still so attractive to him. Whether it was watching the stars at night or sitting by one of the lakes he had come across during his scouting, Hound always found a way to amuse himself with the world around him and he tried, whenever he could, to indulge the others. Beachcomber definitely understood, the mellow bot often accompanying Hound on his expeditions through the mountains and Trailbreaker would sometimes tag along but the others never seem interested.
At least most of the time.
“Whoa.”
Hound glanced back over his shoulder, the green mech sitting on the ground on a hilltop, arms behind himself as he stretched his support struts out in front of himself. It was late, almost one in the morning by human time, but time wasn't something he was really worried about. Up above the night sky stretched on as far as the eye, or optic, could see, stars dancing throughout as the full moon lit up the world below. Every now and then a shooting star would streak across the sky, the beginnings of the event that Hound was there to witness.
“Amazing isn't it?” he asked with a grin as Cliff Jumper stared upwards, servos on his hips as the little bot watched more shooting stars begin to appear.
“It's definitely something.”
“Beautiful in a way,” Came another voice as Mirage appeared over the crest of the hill, a few cubes of Energon in his servos. “We thought you could use some company. Plus, with as much as you've been raving about this, it must be something good,” he murmured, offering Hound a faint smile as the green mech lit up.
“You guys won't be disappointed, I promise,” he said happily and Mirage drifted over to take a seat beside him, Cliff staying upright for the time being as, up above, the sky began to dance to a whole new beat.
