Rating: K+
For about a day now they were on earth. Knockout and Breakdown were two neutrals who would kidnap bots, steal their parts, and sell them off to buyers. They were known to be two most successful neutral partnerships after Buzzsaw and Goldbug. But since Buzzsaw and Goldbug split up, and Goldbug had disappeared, their rants went up. But they were still behind Buzzsaw.
They have notice the autobots around here and had watched them from a distance. They seem to have some interesting parts they can sell for a good price. They remain hidden until the time was right.
/Two week after mail day/
Bumblebee figured that he should tell the others now. He didn't know when his 'friend' was going to show up so he might as well inform them about his arrive. Of course that would have to be done later. Right now he was on patrol around the city.
It was dark out. And the night air was calming. Bumblebee stopped by the dock after driving around the city before heading home.
"Everything seems normal." he said.
"So just how normal does this can get?" said a voice beyond him.
Bee jumped in his vehicle mode before transforming and getting his stingers out. When he saw who it was he calmed down.
"You! Why do you always do that to me, Buzzsaw?" Bee said placing his hands on his hips.
The mech, Buzzsaw, stepped forward and chuckled. "I just thought I would surprise my old partner, Goldbug." He handed his hand. Bumblebee took it and shook it.
"It's good to see you too Buzzsaw. And it's Bumblebee now. Thanks for the high grade."
"No problem. So, how's the autobot life? I thought you were aiming for an Elite Guard or something like that?" He said crossing his arms. Bumblebee places his hand at the back of his neck nervously.
"Yeah about that. You see..." he explains what happen in Camp, about the building incident and how he ended up on a space bridge repair crew. Buzzword shock his headed, laughing a bit.
"Gesh, with your skills you should have been accept in a breem. And I should know, I seen you in action."
"Yeah, well it's not so bad here. The bots here are great."
"Well, you were always the social type."
Bumblebee chuckled before receiving a call through his comm.-link. It was Optimus. Bee answered it.
:: Bumblebee, I picked up another energy signal right next you. Is everything alright?::
Bee looked back at Buzzsaw. Buzzsaw would almost always keep his energy signature hidden.
"I thought since you knew I was coming I didn't really need to hid it." he replied. Bee nodded.
:: It's okay, boss-bot. It's just...a friend::
:: A...friend?::
:: Yup! We're heading back now::
:: Okay. See you then::

Bumblebee and Buzzsaw, who had pick out an alt-mode already, rode up to the base to see the others waiting for them.
"Hey guys" Bee greeted as they transform. "This is..."
"Hi my name is Buzzer." interrupted Buzzsaw. Bee looked at him for a click before realizing. Buzzsaw was a smuggler and a popular one at that. He was mostly known to be dealing with decepticons because they pay a lot better. One of the others, most likely Optimus or Ratchet, might realize him and not be like the idea that they got a smuggler inside the base.
"Right, Buzzer." said Bee with a smile.
"Nice to meet you, Buzzer." said Optimus. "I'm Optimus Prime."
"Nice to meet you, too." He turns to the others. "And you guys?"
Prowl steps up. "I'm Prowl and this is Ratchet and Bulkhead."
Ratchet say 'hey' while Bulkhead wave a little 'hi'.
"Nice to meet you guys." Buzz wave off. "So...where am I staying?"
"Right! Come on, you can stay with me." Bumblebee leads 'Buzzer' to his room.
"Well, this is going interesting." said Prowl. The others nodded.
Bulkhead look at the brownish mech as he and Bumblebee play video games. From the story Bumblebee told them, he and Buzzer had grew up together and help each other out before he joined the Autoboot Camp. Which means he probably knows Bumblebee more than he does. Bulkhead couldn't help but feel like his title of 'Best Friend' was being replace. It especially didn't help feeling jealous as well.
During the game Bee pause it for a moment and headed outside the room, leaving Bulkhead and Buzzer alone. Bulkhead continues to paint as Buzzer lean back on the couch.
"You don't have to worry about me taking Bumblebee away from you." he said out of the blue.
"What?" Bulkhead said, confuse.
"You're Bumblebee's best friend, right? I won't change that. Me and him were friends but not the kind of friends you two are now."
Bulkhead looked at him feeling ashamed at himself for even thinking at Bee would replace him. "I'm sorry that I thought that you were going to take Bumblebee away from me. It just that Bumblebee was the first true friend that I made since Camp and I don't want to lose him." he said.
Buzzer nodded. "It's okay. Even if we did help each other out, we had a partnership then a friendship. You guys probably know the real him then I do."
Bulkhead was a little confuse by that. He was going to ask when Bumblebee came back inside the room with some energon.
"Here you go, Buzzer." he said as he threw the cube.
Buzzer caught it and thanks him. Bumblebee then handed one to Bulkhead with a smile. Bulkhead smiled back and thank him. It was the high grade he hid from Ratchet. It wasn't enough to get him overcharge so it was okay. As long as Optimus or Ratchet...oh, Primus forbid if Ratchet founds them drinking high-grade. He took a sip and his mouth was full of sweetness. He can see why it was Bee's favorite.
Buzzer finished his energon quickly while Bulkhead was second, but Bumblebee took his time. He missed this and he was going to savor every moment of it. He was almost finish with it when the others came in.
"Bumblebee! Is that high-grade?" yelled Ratchet. Bee looked at the energon in his hand and Ratchet repeated.
"Uhm." he said before he swallowed the rest whole. "What energon?"
Both Bulkhead and Buzzer laugh as Ratchet hit Bumblebee upside the head with his wrench.
"Okay, we'll deal with that later. Right now we should go." said Prime.
"Go where?" said Bee as he rub his now dented helm.
"Telegran 1 had picked up something in the woods. We're going to investigate."
"Cool. Hey, Buzzer you want to come?"
Buzzer shrugged. "Sure why not."
