Jazz deactivated his visor as he swayed some in the hammock he was in thanks to the slight wind. He braided his figures behind his head and relaxed, listening to steady 'thunk, thunk, WACK! Thunk, thunk, WHACK! WHACK! BANG!'

….okay so it wasn't steady at all.

"!($&!"

Jazz tided to hide his snicker as Tala gave up on working on the bunk house. He found out why it was taking so long for the owner of Chance Sanctuary to complete the buck house: she didn't know that much a bout building and some how the hammer always met her hand more then once.

The musician brought his visor back online and made sure Tala didn't kill herself before handing her his ice tea as she came over. The ex-Seeker grabbed it with a muttered 'thanks' before hoping onto the hammock with out asking and sat on Jazz's metallic middle. She wanted to be in the shade, Jazz happened to be in one of her favorite places and she didn't want to walk all the way over to the other hammock. Six feet was too just to far right now and her hand hurt.

"Hey Tal'?" Jazz asked, not bothered in the least.

"Hmm?" Tala looked down at the Mazda's face as she tried to figure out how to use the cold glass to num her poor figures.

"Can I ask ya somethin'?"

"You just did."

Jazz poked the human in the side making her yelp, "Ya know what I mean."

"Eee! Don't do that!"

Jazz poked her again.

"Ah-haha! Okay shoot. Just not at my head please."

"Heh" Jazz leaned back again looking Tala in the eyes carefully, "Do ya have any idea when Prowl an' da others will be coming?" he watched the ex-Decepticon as she thought about it.

"I don't know, know when they'll come, or who'll be after you." Jazz watched Tala's eyes un-focus as she turned her attention inward, "Not in the next few weeks I can say for sure. You'll know when they do come though."

Jazz tilted his head at that, "How?"

"Well, I couldn't concentrate on anything for a day or two before you got here and Charm gives you a 'warning' when a bot comes." Tala winced, "I nearly dropped my grandma's vase." Jazz made a noise of sympathy and was rewarded with a whack.

Okay, it was war now!

Jazz pounced, how he managed to do it from laying down Tala didn't know. But Jazz proved he could and proceeded to almost tickle the ex-Seeker to death.

And many 'thank yous' to those who took the time not only to read this fic but review it too!
