Fallout couldn’t help but chuckle darkly at the smaller Autobot’s optimism and enthusiasm. It felt good to laugh. It had been too long since he had done it last. Against his better judgment he was actually starting to like the little Autobot, if only just a little.<br/><br/>“Perhaps Huntron. Perhaps…”<br/><br/>Fallout considered the likelihood that two of them could protect a team of constructicons, while fighting a possible unknown alien menace. He didn’t like the odds. Certainly he would take his fair share of enemies with him, but he wasn’t aware of Huntron’s battle prowess.<br/><br/>“You are brave to be so willing to sacrifice your spark in the name of your cause” Fallout said with admiration.<br/>“But you do not win a war by dying for your cause, you win it by making the enemy die for theirs.”<br/><br/>Fallout chuckled again at the old soldiers joke before continuing.<br/><br/>“Such blind faith in the guaranteed success of The Prime is unwise. Megatron and Optimus are different; this is true, as different as night is to day. But Megatron has one strength that Optimus lacks. He will stop at NOTHING to attain his goals. Optimus cares too much for his friends to allow them to be harmed. Megatron can use this against him.”<br/><br/>Fallout paused for a moment and turned to face Huntron.<br/><br/>“I hope for all our sakes, that you are correct on your optimism Huntron. Unfortunately, my programming doesn’t allow me to share it… If Prime does fall, and Megatron proves victorious, this entire universes will be plunged into a nightmare from which it may never awake…”<br/><br/>Fallout paused and resumed walking.<br/><br/>“But I speak out of turn. I am but a soldier. Let those that were created to think do so. Ours is not to question our duty, but to perform it until we are nothing more than the piles of scrap from whence we came. “<br/><br/>Fallout was quite for a few minutes in thought before he spoke again.<br/><br/>“When do you wish to depart?”<br/>
