Chapter 49:
Finally Knighted
Once the group got back to the ship, they headed straight for the medbay where Red Alert was able to greeted them and help with the repairs. Dame Snowflake was there, as well as Sir Mace. unfortunately, someone else had notice their return as well.
"What is he doing here?"
Sentinel had come in the medbay to check on Optimus and his crew. But he was not happy when he saw Bumblebee back in the medbay with them, or on this ship for instant. He took out his lance and pointed it at the yellow mech.
"I thought I told you to not come back unless you want to get killed."
He held his lance in a striking way, preparing to attack if he made any sudden movements. Bumblebee, however, didn't show any moves for a weapon and place his hands up in a defensive way. Optimus quickly place himself between the Magus and his demon bot teammate.
"That's enough, Sentinel."
"Out of the way, Optimus."
"Bumblebee have shown no disloyalty towards us whatsoever. If he was working for Nightmare, wouldn't he reveal himself before now?"
"You point is?"
"My point is...that your wrong, Sentinel. No one cares if Bumblebee is a demon or not and we're allowing him back on the ship with us."
"Under whose orders, Optimus?"
"Mine."
Honey step forward and stand up to Sentinel. "Bumblebee is my guardian and my mate so he needs to be with me at all times. I found out that he was a demon beast but I didn't care. I still loved him the same way I do now. And if you're not mech enough to respect that then why don't you pack up your things and leave."
There was a tense silence as no one said a word, much less move. Finally, Sentinel turn away and cross his arms.
"Fine, the monster can stay." he mumbled. "But I suspect something's up, he's out of here."
"Thank you, Sentinel."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." He lock optics with Bumblebee. "But I got my optics on you."
Bumblebee saluted him, mockingly. "Yes, sir."
Honey signed. "Fine, at least we can get back to business."
"What business?" asked
"Well, we been thinking," said Dame Snowflake. "the GRK is a little too small since we lost Sir Ford..."
"..And we're considering adding a new member to our group." finish Sir Mace.
Bumblebee perk up at the suggestion, his doorwings in a high 'V' motion. Sir Mace handed Honey a scabbard with a sword in it and she advance in front of Bumblebee, who was getting a little nervous and excited at the same time.
"Bumblebee, please step forward." she said.
Bumblebee did what he was told.
"Kneel."
Bee got down on one knee. Honey took the sword out of its scabbard and lays the blade of the sword on the his right and then left shoulder while saying,
"In the name of thy Royal Family, I hereby dub thee knight. Arise Sir Bumblebee."
Bumblebee did so and smiled. Everyone applaud and congratulates him, except Sentinel. You know he was just folding his arms.
"You did it, little buddy."
"Way to go kid."
"Alright Bumblebee."
"Impressive."
Bumblebee couldn't help but put on the biggest smile he can manage.
"…I did it…" He whispered.

The next day was departure day as our Star Warriors where now leaving Galaxia in search for planet Dark Star. Everyone who was injured yesterday had almost fully recovered and were just outside the ship to say their good-byes to the bots who decided to stay here and help protect Galaxian from any future demon beast attacks from Nightmare. Team Athenia was one of them, along with Elita One and Hornet. But Sideswipe and Sunstreaker were still coming along.
"You bots go ahead, we'll stay here." said Rodimus.
"Roddy dude, are you sure?" asked Jazz.
"We're 100% sure."
"We don't want Nightmare getting control of Galaxia again." said Hot Shot, who was holding hands with Snowcat.
"Besides, if any bots who can bring Nightmare down it's you bots." said Brawn.
"Just be careful. There's still many demon beast you haven't counter yet and I bet they're stronger than the ones you already face." said Red Alert.
Elita came up to Optimus and gave him a parting kiss on the cheek. "Come back in one piece, alright?"
Optimus blush slightly and nodded.
"OOo, look who's kissing out in the open." joked Bumblebee, he looked tired for some reason.
"And you, don't bother Sentinel too much okay?"
"I don't think I can promise that. Here," Bee smiled.
He gave her a box with the words 'In Case Of An Emergency' written on top it.
"What is it?"
"In case of an emergency." Bee repeated. "You know for when the demon beasts get really tough. I made enough for everyone could use it."
She understood. She smile and kiss Bee on top of his helm. "Thanks, this can come in handy."
Bee smile and nodded and went back on the ship with the others. Dame Snowflake step forward to announce their departure.
"Thank you everyone for your help. Now we must leave in search of planet Dark Star and Nightmare. But when we return we will be victorious."
Everyone in the crowd cheered and wave their good-byes, blessing them on their trip and hoping for a safe return.
"Alright, everyone's ready?" asked Sentinel. Again, everyone was in the command room with him.
"Yes, everyone's ready." reply Sir Mace.
"Alright then, time to head out y'all." said Jazz.
The ship was flew up from the ground and head up into the skies, to beyond the stars.

Nightmare's Fortress
"Well my lord, it looks like they're off again." said Customer Service.
"Oh good. Why waste time looking for them when they can can come straight to us." said Nightmare.
"So you want them to find Dark Star?"
"Yes, I do." he said. "And when they do arrive, Galvatron and friends will be there to greet them."
