The GrimBee Story

Chapter 25

A few days passed, and the air was cold, much to Amberblade's discomfort. Luckily, she and Ripjaw had a way to stay warm. Now that his heat cycle was over they had been focusing on finding Energon, "I'm gonna go look for some Energon," she said as she headed out.

"Do you want me to go with you?"

"No, I'll be good."

"Don't go too far, there's no telling if the Autobots are this far out. If you run into one, let me know," he told her as he hugged her.

"I will," Amberblade said as she hugged him back. Slowly letting go, Amberblade transformed and headed out to look for some Energon.

Razorclaw knelt down on the ground, examining it, he vented out a sigh when he couldn't find anything, "I guess Ripjaw's heat cycle is over. Which is good and bad," he muttered to himself as he headed deeper into the woods.

Amberblade was walking along when she suddenly heard some movement, she went to hide behind some bushes and waited for whatever it was to pass by.

Razorclaw stopped near where Amberblade was hiding, sniffing the air again he couldn't find any other scents. However, he was feeling cautious... and scared? He gently pushed the emotions that weren't his away. Amberblade jumped out and pounced on him. Falling to the ground with a thud he looked up at the femme, "I had a feeling you were out here somewhere," he spoke calmly.

"How?"

"I could just tell," he replied not wanting her to know his ability.

"Right," she said as she looked at him suspiciously.

"Could you get off me please?"

She growled as she got off him. He sat up slowly not wanting to make her feel threatened, "Thank you."

"What are you doing out here?"

"Figured it should be obvious, looking for you and Ripjaw."

"Why can't you bots leave us alone!?"

Razorclaw flinched at her yell, "I'm sorry but we can't let you two keep running around like this. What would you do if a human sees you?"

"We stay out of sight of humans."

"That's good. We thought a human would have spotted you by now."

"Well, they haven't."

Razorclaw fell silent for a moment, she was keeping her guard up which was to be expected. He would have done the same thing, "May I ask what you're doing out here by yourself?"

"I'm looking for Energon."

"There should be some Energon around here somewhere," he replied hoping that she would relax a little.

"So, you're not gonna try to take me in?"

"If I tried that we would have a very angry Dinobot on our tail. We have enough to worry about already."

"So, you're just gonna let me go?"

"For now." He sighed as he wondered if he should even say anything to the others, "How's Ripjaw?"

"Why do you want to know?"

"Just curious."

"He's doing just fine."

"You really care about him, don't you?"

"Yes."

Razorclaw stayed quiet for a moment trying to figure something out, a part of him wanted to help the two.
