A/N: I own nothing

12.

"Really, they had the nerve to ask if I had a heart." Rad growled as he combed through the Napaea from ealiers hair.

"Perhaps you misunderstood what they were asking?" Rowan questioned feeling guitly bliss from having convinced Rad to comb her hair in return for a listening ear. "What about your thoughts on the youth and maiden that were with them?"

Rad snorted. "I will reserve any definetive judgement 'till later on the Autobots and them. The only reason I'm still here is because I promised Crumplezone that I'd protect the Minicons." he explained. "I am neutural on my thoughts for the most part on Carlos, seeing as he had done nothing to warrant my disapproval." Rad then frowned. "But I'm not to keen on Alexis though. I respect her opinion on human hunting matters and them killing for sport, but not when it comes to my hunting." he glared at nothing in particular. "After all, who is she to tell me that hunting to survive is wrong?"

"She just doesn't understand." Rowan reasoned. "After all, she is just a human. Telling you not to hunt is like telling a fish not to swin or a bird not to swim. It's just what you do, it's in your blood."

Rad smiled lightly. "At least you get it." he brushed through her brown hair once more before nodding to himself. "Done."

"This Minicon is where?" Rad questioned as he raised a brow.

"Antartica." Carlos answered as they got their jumpsuits on. "Your gonna be pretty cold without one you know."

"As if he's cold enough already." Alexis huffed.

Rad glared at her before smirking. "Actually, I have just the thing." he took off his back pack and pulled out a long blue garment. He put it on to show it was a knee-lengthed cloak. It had a crescent moon clasp and the hood and collar on it was lined with fluffy white fur.

"So cool!" Carlos said in awe.

"Is it real?" Alexis asked suspciously.

Rad scoffed. "All my furs are real." he said and looked pointedly down at his brown fur-lined hiking boots.

Alexis recoiled. "That's cruel!" she snapped. "How can you be so heartless?"

Rad's lip curled back into a snarl. He was still sore about when the Minicons had asked if he had a heart, and this just deepened the wound. "What did you just say to me, child?"

Carlos looked between them both and stepped between them. "Not now." he said placatingly. "There's no reason to fight amongst ourselves."

Both of them glared at each other, but Rad scoffed. "I don't have time for your petty complaints, I have a Minicon panel to find." he said turning away.

"Petty complaints?" Alexis repeated outraged as she glared after Rad.

Carlos shook his head. 'Why can't they just get along?'
