Rating: K


The autobots were completely surprise to see that Beta had transformed into a completely new being. Her entire body was now a humanoid-shaped deep-dark blue color with a outline of a lighter-dark blue and she had a long flowing tendril of 'hair' that is bright blue.

"Beta, is a...?" said Bulkhead.

"Anodite. I should have known." said Ratchet.

"What's an anodite?" asked Sari.

"Anodites are sapient energy beings from the planet Anodyne. They are free spirited and extremely powerful. They are beings of life energy, or mana as you might say. They have about the same or longer live-span than us, so they would stop by and visit from time to time as they like to roam around the universe. Some have even bonded with us but it's hard to tell because they can take the form of any creature they chose." He then looks at Bumblebee with an optic ridge. "And you're one of them, aren't ya kid?"

"Sort of." Bee said waving his hand like a so-so.

"Humph, I should have guessed. Your personality and large amount of energy match completely."

"Yeah, can we talk about this later?" Pointing to Beta.

"Right." said Optimus. He stepped forward. "Beta, you had your fun now it's time to head back to base."

"Make me." she threatened.

Optimus signed. "Fine, I didn't want to do this Beta but you leave me no choice. I'm calling your creators."

"No!" She throws an energy ball at him but Bumblebee reacted quickly. He places himself in front of Prime and places a shield up as best as he could. Since the shield was weak so it shattered and the force was strong enough to send him back. The others went to his aid.

"Bumblebee, you okay?" asked Sari. Bumblebee grunt as he got up.

"No, because now I'm mad." He stood up and activates his stinger. He shot at Beta but they had no effect.

"Ah! Is that all you got, cos?"

"Did he hurt you Beta? I'll trash him good." said Rocky. He started heading towards them. Bulkhead steps up and started wrestling with him.

"No one hurts my little buddy." Bulkhead grunt. Rocky threw him to the side, making him hit a building.

"I'll help Bulkhead with Rocky. The rest of you try to get Beta under control." order Prime.

"Try is the key word here." said Ratchet "The kid's powerful."

"Which is why we have to get her under control."

Bulkhead sends a few punches towards Rocky but he soon had him up against the wall.

"You can't beat me. You fight for your own reason but I fight for love." Rocky then release Bulkhead and stepped back when foam was sprayed into his eyes by Optimus. Bulkhead took out his wrecking ball and threw it at Rocky, sending him flying.

Prowl and Bee dodged an attack before Prowl send a shuriken her way. She reflect the shuriken before moving out of the way of Ratchet's magnet hold. She sends a few beams at them. They dodged yet again.

"Face it, cos. You're out class." said Beta with a smirk.

"Oh yeah, like you know what class is." replied Bee.

"I'm so sick of sweet little Bee. I'm going to smack that smug look off that giddy face." Her 'hair' reaches over to him. Bumblebee was able to block it but the shield break again, making Bee black out for a while.

Bulkhead grunt as he was just sent against a wall. He got up as Rocky started to approach him.

"Love. Rocky fights for love."

"Yeah. Well, we fight to win. Now!"

Rocky turn to see Optimus aiming at him with a hole.

"Surprise!" Said Optimus before he turn it on and spray water all over Rocky. Rocky stepped back as water was strayed all over him. Soon it stops.

"Is that all you got?"

"No." Optimus pointed down. Around the rock creature were live electrical wires that had fallen earlier by a rat creature. Rocky frowned before getting shock by thousands of volts. Normally, it wouldn't affect him but getting soak made his body more vulnerable. He fell down like...well a rock, and then pass out.

"Nice job." said Optimus.

Ratchet and Prowl both were sent against the wall, temporary disable leaving Bumblebee to fight Beta himself.

"I forget cos. What did you say you were going to make me do?" She said as she approach him. He shot his stingers at her again. She reflects it. "Thinks he's too good to be an Anodite. That's what I heard." Her 'hair' reached over to him, keeping him pined down against the ground. Bumblebee struggled to get free. "Don't even try."

"Ok, fine. I'm not as powerful as you. I'll give you that." said Bee.

Beta laughed. "You got that right."

"But Grandma Nova is."

Beta's optics widen a bit then she turn around. Behind her were blue, green, and purple Anodites and they all looked pretty upset.

"Grandma! Mom! Aunt Alice!" She realise Bumblebee and put up a sheild. "No, I'm not going back. You can't make me!"

"Oh hush up, would you. We're so cross with you right now." said the purple one.

The shield then surrounded her in a blue ball, trapping her inside with no way of escaping.

"How an energy-being turn out to be such a spoiled brat is beyond me." said the green one.

Bumblebee got up and dust himself off as the others appoach him, carrying Rocky as well. He turn to the Andonites regonizing each of them.

"Hey there Grandma, Aunt Misha, Aunt Alice."

"Hello there Sweet Bee." said the green one.

"How is you and your friends doing?" said the blue one.

"Okay, thanks."

Ratchet regonize the purple one and came next to Bee.

"Hello there, Nova." he said.

"Ah, Ratchet. It's good to see you again. I didn't expect you to be watching over my grandson. These are my daughters, Alice and Misha."

"Hello." said the green one, Alice.

"Nice to meet you." said the blue one, Misha. "I'm sorry for my daughter's behavior. I hope she didn't cause you too much trouble."

Ratchet shrugged. "Uh, nothing I can't handle."

"I'll take Rocky off your hands. His parents must be worried about him." said Alice. Optimus and Bulkhead realise Rocky, who only landed in a green ball like Beta.

"So Nova, how did you know when to be here?" asked Ratchet.

Nova chuckled. "My surprise of the day really. I was roaming around a solar system not too far from here when I recieve a call through the mana field. It was very weak but I was still able to recieve it. And guess my surprise when I found out it was sent by Bumblebee."

Bumblebee rubbed the back of his helm in sheepily. "Yeah, I didn't really think it would work, at least at the first try."

"Your powers are finally developing. You didn't show any signs when you were a sparkling, like you cousins."

"I guess I'm more Cybertronian than Anodite."

"Perhaps." She said in a thoughtful way. She looks around and see all the damage made. "Oh, would you look at this mess. This is going to take you forever to fix."

"You got that right." The bots turn to see Captain Fanzone standing there and he was not so please to have his city damaged.

"Don't worry about it, Captain Fanzone. We'll handle it." said Optimus as he appoach them with the others.

"Oh no please let me." said Misha. "It was my daughter's mess so I should clean it up." She snap her finger and in a blink of an eye, everything was back to the way it was. Even the Autobots were completely healed.

"What the-" said the captain looking around. Every looked like it was never damage to begin with. "Uhm, okay then. Thank you."

"Very impressive." said Prowl, astonish.

"Impressive? That was awesome!" said Sari.

"I should get going." said Alice.

"Me too. When we get home you're in a lot of trouble young lady." said Misha to her daughter, Beta. "It was nice to see you and your friends, Sweet Bee. I hope we meet again." She flew into the air with Beta behind her along with Alice who was taking Rocky home.

"Well, I should get going." said Nova. She turn to Bumblebee. "You could come with me. You could learn to use your power, after you mastered them of course."

The others frown at the thought of losing their team mate and friend but this was a huge opportunity for him and they didn't want to ruin it for him.

"I don't know." said Bee. He look over to his friends. Optimus place a hand on his shoulder.

"Bumblebee, if you think you should go with her then we won't stop you."

"He's right, kid. Chances like this don't came to just anyone." said Ratchet.

Bee looked them then to the rest of his friends. They smiled and nodded.

"Bee?" Bee looked down to Sari. "If you want to go with your grandma then I won't stop you. Just promise to visit from time to time."

Bumblebee was touch. He was really glad to have such great friends that cared about. "Thanks guys." He turn to his grandma. "But I'm going to have to say no on the offer. I'll just stick to what I got."

"I see. You got good friends, little Bee. But that sure won't stop me from trying to convince you." She flew up in the air. "Ratchet I truth you'll keep an eye on my grandson."

"Well do."

"And Bee, I truth you to get Ratchet to have fun."

"I'll trying."

"Then I'm off. I hope to see you all real soon." she said as she fell into space. The autobots watch her left before turning to each other.

"Your family's weird." said Sari.

"My family? All families are weird. Just like this one." Bee replied back as the team started heading home.
