“To be honest kid getting buried alive is now one of my fears as well…” Knock Out then stared at Minerva and winced as she yelled at him. “Yes but….” He winced again. “I know that but…” He huffed. “The mudslide was not my fault! They would have been washed away whether or not I was racing!...I mean…They were lucky I was here …Grrr..” He growled. As she went to scan his dent he sighed holding an arm up. The dent was not life threatening but did have a bent strut and was starting to smart! “Ow! And you say my bedside manner needs work.” He grunted and began to chip away at the already dried black mud. “It's going to take me forever to wash this junk out of my grill…” Hearing her concerns Knock Out calmed himself and gave his old protégé a smile.
“Well, it's not the reunion I would have wanted either. But I am glad to see you too Minerva. And, I'm also glad you're going to be around for a while.

In reality, I was acting..like..a.. chaperone. Sort of…” Knock Out folded his arms slightly clearing his throat. When the girl said her name however his head tilted to one side.
“Wait? Did you say Fowler?” Looking down at her he rubbed his chin. “Fowler…Fowler…Why does that name..” Then an image file popped up. “Primus! The Snappy Dresser! Oh please tell me you're an offspring?”
