Hey all my Autobot Brother's and Sister's. It's me the one, the only SonicPrimus7986 here. And I'm not dead! I've just been really busy. Anyway, let's get started.
Last we left our heroes, Bee and ShootingStar were falling through an inter dimensional gateway. They were accompanied by a girl named Twilight who needed the Cybertronian's help. They landed and found that they had changed form, and were surrounded by 6 teenage girls. However, they weren't the only Transformers that were there. Starscream and Barricade had survived the Mission City battle and are running an operation called Second-Coming, they've even allied themselves with a group from that dimension! What are they planning and WHO are their new partners? Find out now!
Chapter 4: Getting Situated, A Sleepover, and Origin Stories
Time: 11:00
Location: Canterlot High School (CHS)
Coordinates: 500 North, 1600 East, Equine Street.
The yellow teen and his companions were walking down the hallway.
Bumblebee was next to Sunset, and ShootingStar, who was confused about where they were going was next to Celestia.
"Celestia, I know that this might sound weird and, well, strange... but where are you taking us anyway?" He asked in a where are we going way.
ShootingStar was a need to know kinda bot. Back on Cybertron he needed to know where his soldiers were and what the enemies plan of attack was.
Celestia's reply was a smile and a chuckle. This made ShootingStar really confused, Sunset however knew where they were going and chuckled... which made Bee confused as well. Both Autobots stopped and looked at each other giving an 'idunna' shrug. Sunset saw the two stopped and motioned her hand in a 'let's go' gesture. Bumblebee and ShootingStar resumed walking.
Five minutes later they group came to a stop in front of a door with a glass window. Celestia reached in her pocket and pulled out a pair of gold and silver keys, put the gold key in the lock and turned it and pushed the door opened.
She motioned her left hand into the room.
-Play Transformers: The Score-Witwicky-
"Please, come in." Celestia said in a sweet voice.
The boy's walked into the room, it was a school office. The walls were painted yellow and orange, like the sun. There were three red chairs next to the door entrance.
The two were impressed by the design of the room.
"Wow! Look at this place, and the design is very unique." Said ShootingStar in awe. Bumblebee nodded and replied with a whistle.
Celestia turned back out the door and grabbed the door knob.
"You there can sit down, I just need to head over to my sisters office really fast and grab a few things. Once I come back we'll get you boys situated." Said Celestia happily. Bumblebee and Star nodded and took their seats along with Sunset.
Bumblebee sat down in the middle, ShootingStar sat on Bumblebees left side and Sunset sat on the right. The young Autobot scout put his right hand on the arm rest and slouched down thinking
'I wonder why Celestia brought us here. Maybe she's got something to do with this problem? Oh what do I know! I just barely arrived to this world and the problem could be that there is no problem! If I was still Cybertronian I could use my scanners to find this 'problem' and blast it to microscopic particles! But if there is a problem then I have to be patient.' Thought Bumblebee letting out a sigh.
Sunset slouched down and thought as well.
'I hope Bumblebee and Star like it here. I'd hate it if they found out about my little 'Power Hungry trip' from the Fall Formal, especially Bumblebee (looks at Bumblebee) I don't want him to think of me as a monster. Maybe I'm overreacting, Bumblebee seems like the kinda guy who wouldn't judge anyone. I just need to calm down...'
Sunset put her left hand down on the armrest as well, but realized that she put her hand on top of Bumblebees! Bumblebee felt the hand on top of his and turned his head, seeing an embarrassed Sunset blushing making him blush and stutter.
"Uh... Nice day, right?" Said Bumblebee embarrassed.
"Um. Yeah, I guess." Answered Sunset nervously.
ShootingStar was bored out of his mind. He tapped his pointer finger and foot impatiently.
'Oh my Dear God I'm bored! Primus if you can hear me than please give me something to do! (Turns head looking at the embarrassed Bumblebee and grins) Primus thank you!'
"So Bee, looks like you've got yourself a girl after all! But I didn't know that you would pull a Romeo on a girl you just met!" Said Star snickering. Bumblebee came back to his senses and looked at teen boy sitting next to him. Sunsets face turned completely red with embarrassment.
"N-Now hold on a slagging second I just met Sunset today! Are you implying that she's already my girlfriend!?" Said Bumblebee really embarrassed.
"No not at all..." Said Star. Bumblebee let out a sigh of relief.
ShootingStar grinned and chuckled silently.
"...Romeo."
Bumblebee somewhat heard the word muttered underneath Stars breath.
"What was that?" Asked Bumblebee confused.
"Oh nothing..." Said Star acting calm.
The office door opened and in came Celestia with a bunch of papers and files and maneuvered over to a desk. On top of the desk was a lamp with a green shade, a gold plaque saying 'Principle' on it and a grey laptop. She set the papers down on top and took a seat
Celestia told the boy's why they were both there.
"Phew! Now that I'm back lets get started. My name's Celestia and I'm the Principle here at Chanterlot High"
She extended her hand to the two boys. Bee and Star extended their hands and shook her hand. They released from the handshake and started the registration process.
"So to start off, what are your names?" Celestia said as she reached for her desk.
She opened up the laptop, logged into the school database and waited for the boys to talk.
-Play Solleanna castle town extended-
Bumblebee spoke first, he took a deep breath and exhaled.
"The names Bumblebee."
Celestia typed the word in.
"Ok... And what is your last name?" Asked Celestia waiting to type. Bumblebee thought for a moment, normally if a Cybertronian had a last name then it would have to either be 'Prime' or Omega.
'Let's see, I can't use Prime because that would be dishonorable to Optimus. Tron? Heck no! I don't want to have the last name of my worst enemy... Wait! I've got it!'
"My last name is Pax."
Celestia typed the name into the school data system.
"Ok now how old are you Mr. Pax?" Asked the school principle. Bumblebee got really stumped by this question.
'How old am I? Well I know that I can't tell her that I'm 16 centuries old... 16... Wait! I just answered my own question!"
"16." Said Bumblebee stretching the truth about his age. The school principle entered the age of the boy.
"Ok. Thank you Bumblebee.*Looks at ShootingStar* Now for you. what's your name and age?" Celestia asked the boy on Bumblebees left.
"I'm Bumblebees older brother ShootingStar Pax, and I'm 18 years old." Star answered calmly. Celestia put the boys name and age into the school database.
"Alright, last question. What school did you both attend before you moved, and were was it?" The multi-colored hair woman asked calmly.
Bumblebee answered calmly with a straight face.
"My brother and I used to live in Mission City, and we were both enrolled at Cybertron County High." Bumblebee answered calmly. Celestia looked at the boy with one brow arched.
"Mission City? I've never heard of it, where is it?" Said/asked Celestia.
Bumblebee thought of what to say next.
'Never heard of Mission City? Well that's not good, but I think I can make this work. Since this world is inhabited by humans as well then that means that the continents and Major Cities should be some what the same...'
"Well it's a very beautiful city! There are so many things to see there like the Downtown Square gardens! It's not to far away from New York City, you should go and visit some time." Said Bumblebee smiling. Celestia's look of confusion faded into a look of happiness.
"Oh ok, it sounds like a good place to see, I'll make sure to see it when I have a break!" Said Celestia. She typed the rest of the information into the laptop, pressed the enter key and smiled.
"Alright, you boy's are all registered. You both are now official Wonder-Colts, all you need now are your class schedules." Said Celestia typing a document and hitting print.
Bumblebee and Star looked at each other and smiled.
"Well that was easy!" Said Bumblebee.
Celeatia got up from her chair, walked over to the printer and grabbed two pieces of paper. She walked over to Bumblebee and Star, handing the two their class schedules. The two boys looked at the papers.
Bumblebee
1/2: Mixed Choir
3/4: P.E
-LUNCH BREAK-
5/6: History

ShootingStars was the same except he had Advanced Art as his last class.
"You both will be starting classes tomorrow." Said the Autobots new Principal.
The three got up from their seats walked over to the office door and opened it. Bumblebee turned around and thanked Celestia.
"Thanks miss, I mean... Principle Celestia, for your kindness and your time." Said Bumblebee.
"No problem, if you have any questions about your schedules or anything else then let me know." Said Celestia happily.
"Will do." Said Bumblebee giving a thumbs up
Bumblebee, ShootingStar and Sunset walked out of the room.
"Wait hold on! I forgot one more thing!" Celestia called out
The three teens looked confused about why they were being called back, but complied anyways.
"Now, since you two are new here, you'll need a guide to show you around *looks at Sunset* and I think Sunset would be more than happy to show you two around." Said Celestia smiling.
She walked over to sunset and the two boys and told them to follow Sunset. Sunset nodded her head and told the boys to follow her
"Come on, I'll show you guys around." Sunset said happily. She wanted to know the two teens better, and not to mention that this was the perfect way to tell them who she was before they found out about her 'episode.'
Bumblebee and ShootingStar nodded and followed Sunset.
Celestia smiled and waved goodbye at Bumblebee, Sunset, and ShootingStar. The three did the same.
One Hour later...
Time: 12:00
-Stop playing Solleanna castle town extended-
The three students had just gone through the lunch room and were heading for the main lobby. The two Autobots were tired from the long, long tour, especially Bumblebee.
Sunset noticed the two were tired and decided to stop.
"We can stop and take a little break if you guy's want." Said Sunset happily, she was tired as well and wanted to rest her legs.
The boys smiled in relief and immediately collapsed to the floor, each with a loud THUD. ShootingStar was sitting/leaning up against the lockers while Bumblebee was laying on the floor and panting.
"By the AllSpark! That was the *pant* longest, most exhausting, *Pant*most ridiculous tour EVER!" Said a very tired, and worn out Bumblebee.
ShootingStar and Sunset looked at the yellow teen and chuckled a bit, the chuckling turned into laughing.
Bumblebee looked at the two confused.
"What's so funny?" Asked Bumblebee, not sure why the two were laughing.
"Oh it's nothing Bee." Said Sunset in a giggly voice.
ShootingStar was laughing like an idiot and it got on Bees nerves. Bumblebee sat up and shot a glare at the boy.
The blue teens laugh started to die down.
"Hehehe um... Sorry Bee" Said ShootingStar scratching the back of his head nervously.
Bumblebee got up, sighed and shuck his head. As he got up, caught his attention out of the corner of his eye. He walked over to it, and looked closely at the object.
The object was a blue and yellow-stripped flyer with a red guitar on it with the words 'BATTLE OF THE BANDS: OCTOBER 30 AT 7:00 P.M SHARP THINK YOU'VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES' in bold gold letters. Bumblebee took the flyer down and read it to himself silently.
He looked at Sunset and asked her what this object was.
"Hey Sunset, what's this for?" Asked Bumblebee holding the poster out.
"Oh, that's the Battle of the Bands. All the students here at CHS are really pumped up for it" Said Sunset nervously and anxious.
Bumblebee to look at Sunset with a sly smirk on his face.
"Hmm... sounds interesting."
Bumblebee was interested in this event. He smirked and chuckled.
"Hey Star!"
"Yeah Bee?" Said Star. Bumblebee handed the flyer over to him
"You thinking what I'm thinking?"
Star looked at the flyer grinning
"Signing up for the music contest?"
"Yep."
The two bots looked at each other and grinned. ShootingStar stood up and walked over to Bumblebee, placing his hand on Bumblebees shoulder.
"Alright then! This should be fun." Said ShootingStar. He made a rock and roll hand gesture.
Sunset looked at Bumblebee and Star baffled.
'Wow! Two new kids signing up for the battle of the bands, These two have guts! I guess Twilight picked these two for a reason, but I can't help the feeling that their hiding something..."
Sunset was deep in thought and started staring into space. Bumblebee tried to snap his friend out of her trance.
"Sunset... Sunset?" Said Bumblebee attempting to get his friends attention, but it didn't work.
Bumblebee sighed loudly, leaned in close to sunset, took a deep breath and...
"SUNSET!" Shouted Bumblebee.
Sunset snapped out of her thoughts and came back to reality.
"Huh, wha?" asked Sunset confused. She looked at Bumblebee.
"Sunset, you said that there was one more thing you needed to show us." Bumblebee said reminding her about the end of the tour.
Realizing that, she quickly grabbed hold of the two and ran.
"You guys will like this next stop." Said Sunset as she grabbed hold of Bee and Star; both were screaming by the fact of how strong she was.
Time: 1:01
They finally finished the tour and headed back to the Music room.
"Well that tour was great, but it feels good to end it with some R&R." Bumblebee said as he twisted the door handle.
He pushed the door open and saw Rainbow Dash and the others, excluding Twilight, practicing for something. This intrigued both Bumblebee and ShootingStar, both walked in and sat down. The girls noticed the boys were back and stopped playing their instruments. The first to speak from the group was Rainbow Dash, who was anxious to hear what the boys thought about their new school.
"So, how'd you like the tour?"
Bumblebee replied with a shrug, a smile, and a laid back voice.
"It was alright. I mean, this place is no CCH, but it's still pretty cool." Said Bumblebee in his laid back voice, along with a small wink.
RD turned to Star and asked the same thing. Stars reply, however, was different from Bees.
"Meh... It was o.k, but not much to see. Except for the Battle of the Bands tomorrow." Said Star in a chill, smooth voice like water running down the mountain side.
Everyone, except Sunset and ShootingStar, was shocked to hear that the new kids were competing in the Battle of the Bands. This caused everyone to shout.
"YOU TWO ARE COMPETING?!"
All the two boys did was nod, and calmly answer the girls question.
"Yep." The two said while grinning, standing back to back.
Rainbow Dash looked at the two boys.
"Do you guys even play any instruments?" Said Rainbow Dash. The two boys looked at her with a serious face.
Rainbow smiled nervously while shoving her hands in her pockets.
"I'll take that as a... maybe?" Said the teen in a 'Whoops, my bad' way. Bumblebees serious face soon faded to a more chill, and relaxed, smile.
"Yea, I play the guitar and sing lead vocals." Said the teen, who was rocking his chair back and forth.
"And I play the drums, bass, Key-Tar and sing back-up for Bee" Said Star calmly. He put his hand in his left hand into his left pocket and shrugged
The girls were intrigued, and wanted to know if that was true. The next to speak was Flutter-shy, who was trying to act cool and not dash out of the room.
"You guys uh, wouldn't mind... Playing something for us, would you?" Said the pale yellow girl, she wanted to see what they could do and if they were good.
Bumblebee stood up, walked over to Flutter-shy, and answered her question with a smile and a wink.
"Sure, I know a lot of songs. Most of them range from popular artists like Linkin Park, Black Lab, Stan Bush, and some original scores and songs that I composed." Said Bumblebee
"Linkin who?" Fluttershy asked with a confused look. Bumblebee looked at the girl with a dumb-found expression.
'Oh boy...'
He reached his hand out to Flutter-shy. The light yellow teen noticed what Bee was doing, so she extended her arm out as well, the two shook hands and introduced themselves.
"Names Bumblebee." Said Bumblebee kindly.
The girl said her name very quietly, almost like she was whispering.
"My names Flutter Shy." She whispered to herself. Bumblebee heard what she said and complemented her.
"Flutter Shy... That's a pretty cool name." Said Bee kindly making Flutter Shy blush.
She immediately covered her face with her hair and continued to speak.
"Th-Thank you, I like your name too." Said the light yellow girl, still trying to hide her face.
Bumblebee cheeks turned pink and stuttered. Star just watched while face palming himself, he was thinking of how Bee was getting out of this one. The scout turned away, laughing nervously.
Then Rarity approached and introduced herself to the two boys.
"Greetings you two, my name is Rarity *does a curtsy bow* It's a pleasure to meet you both." Said Rarity smiling.
ShootingStar got up and introduced himself.
"Well it's nice to meet you too Miss Rarity. ShootingStar *Grabs Rarity's hand gently and kisses it* at your service." Star said smiling and winking. Rarity blushed and started fanning herself with her free hand.
"Oh and such a gentleman too! How marvelously wonderful!" Said Rarity. She let out a nervous giggle. ShootingStar let go of Rarity's hand.
Rarity turned and faced Bumblebee.
"And what might your name be darling? Someone with an amazing wardrobe like yours must have a special name. Asked Rarity still blushing.
Bumblebee grinned and chuckled.
"You got that right Rares! The name's Bumblebee, and I go above and beyond when it comes to racing. Cause' when I kick it into high gear I leave everyone eating my dust from behind! I'm not called Yellow Lightning for nothing you know." Said Bumblebee cockily.
Rainbow heard the word racing and immediately came in front of Bumblebee and Rarity. She had a huge smile on her face.
"Wait your a professional racer!?" Asked Rainbow very excited. Bumblebee nodded and tilted his chair back, putting his hands behind his head and his feet up on a desk.
"That... Is... Awesome! How fast can you go? What's your top speed? How many trophies and races have you won? Do you have any rivals?" Asked Rainbow in a flurry of questions. Bumblebee smirked and put his hand in the air, counting each question he answers off with his fingers.
"In order Dash. Yeah it's pretty awesome but it can be dangerous, my top speed is Mach 3 and if conditions are right than its Mach 4, I've won over 900 races, 550 1st place trophies and 350 gold 1st place medals, and yes I do have a rivalry between another speedster that can become pretty dangerous and at times deadly. REALLY deadly."
Rainbow looked like she was going to faint from the young scouts answers.
"That is Awesome!" Said Rainbow wistfully.
"So there's another speedster at CHS now, how thrilling! That explains the racer jacket and goggles on your head!" Said Rarity happily. Bumblebee looked at the purple haired teen with confusion. He leaned the chair back to its right position and sat properly.
"Wait? There's another speed demon here at this school, what's his or her name?" Asked Bumblebee curiously. Pinkie popped right next to the scout.
"His name is Sonic. He looks about your age, has blue spiky hair and red shoes with white straps and gold buckles. You can't miss him!" Said Pinkie giving a smile. Bumblebee smiled and thought for a moment, placing his hand on his chin.
'Another speedster huh? Sounds interesting! Maybe once this whole problem is done I'll start looking for him. This could be a fun challenge'
SonicPrimus7986: There's a special hint for you all. I say no more secrets! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! XD
"But anyways, enough about us talking. How about we play you guys that song?"Said Bee anxious.
The scene flips over to Bumblebee and ShootingStar on the band room stage. Bumblebee was tuning a yellow electric that looked like Rainbows guitar, only instead of Lightning bolts on the face it had Black racing stripes with silver Autobot symbols running up the neck. ShootingStar was sitting at Pinkies Drum Set only the base of it was switched out and replaced with a chrome blue one. On the front was a black Autobot symbol with a drumstick behind it. The girls, including Twilight were ready to see what the boys could do. Sunset was sitting on top of a piano, she was looking at the symbols on the drum set and the guitar confused.
'What's with those weird symbols? And why do they look like a machines face? Better ask Bee to see what that logo is.'
"Hey Bee, can I ask you something?" Asked Sunset. Bumblebee heard the question but didn't look up, he was focusing on the guitar and how it sounded.
"Yes Sunset?" Said Bumblebee still tuning the guitar. He tuned the 5th string to much and it popped. Bumblebee looked at Rainbow.
"Hey Skittles, can you hand me a string?" Asked Bumblebee. Rainbow complied reached into her backpack and pulled out some new strings and gave them to Bumblebee.
"Thanks"
Bumblebee pulled the busted string off and put the new one on. Tuning it to make sure it was the right key.
"Your welcome Bee, oh and one more thing?" Said Rainbow. Bumblebee stopped Tuning and played a simple A-D-A-E chord progression and looked at Rainbow
"Don't call me Skittles, or else I'll start calling you Buzzy Bee." Said Rainbow nonchalantly.
"Fine, and by the way I've been called worse names than Buzzy Bee. If all the names I was called were a person, than Buzzy Bee would be a small child in diapers." Said Bumblebee. Rainbow rolled her eyes with an annoyed look on her face.
The scout turned his head and looked at Sunset and resumed the conversation with her.
"Anyways, Sunset what's up?" Asked Bumblebee.
"I wanted to ask you *points at the Autobot insignia on Bees guitar and the drum set* what's up with those symbols, why does it look like a robots face?" Asked Sunset. Bumblebee looked at the symbols, then back at Sunset.
"You mean the insignia?" Asked Bumblebee curiously. Sunset nodded.
"This insignia is really special. It represents the nobility and strength of Star and me. It's a 'Family Crest' if you will." Said Bumblebee.
"Oh I see. But that still doesn't explain why it's on your guitar and Stars Drum set." Said Sunset, pointing the fact out. Bumblebee looked at Sunset with a smile on his face.
"Well Star and I are using it as our band's emblem in the competition tomorrow. We both thought that we could use it to make us more known around here." Said Bumblebee. The two looked at each other for a few minutes, smiling at each other.
Star was feeling really annoyed and growing impatient, complaining in his head.
'Oh my God I feel like I'm one of those soap opera shows Mikayla watches! And it's not a good feeling either! Will they break eye contact so we can start playing or am I just gunna sit here WAITING FOR ONE OF THESE TWO SICK LOVEBIRDS TO MAKE A MOVE!? GAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!'
"GAH! Hey Romeo and Juliet can you two stop gazing into each other's souls! I'm tired of waiting and I really want to start drumming away!" Said Star playing a pathetic Rim-Shot. Bumblebee turned his head away from Sunset and looked at Star with a smile.
"Alright Star, let's get this show on the road!" Said Bumblebee enthusiastically. After Star heard Bumblebee say that he had a huge mischievous ear to ear grin.
"Let's ROCK!"
-play New Divide by Linkin Park-
Bumblebee and Star started off slow and steady, Bumblebee plucked a few chords and repeated while Star hit the bass of the drum which turned into him hitting the rest of the drum set like a crazy animal. Bumblebee struck his guitar with ease playing a symphony of chords.
"Time to rock..." Said Bumblebee grinning.
"This is gunna be fun..." Star said banging on the drums
Bumblebee
I remember black sky's,
the Lightning all around me...
I remembered each flash as time began to blur...
like a startling sign, the fate had finally found me...
And your voice was all I heard,
Did I get what I deserve?
Chorus(Both)
So give me a reason, to prove me wrong!
To wash this memory clean!
Let the floods cross, the distance in your eyes!
Give me a reason, to fill this hole
Connect the space between!
Let it build up to reach the truth and lies...
Across this New Divide!
Bumblebee(ShootingStar is harmonizing and echoing)
There was nothing insight,
But Memories left abandoned...
There was nowhere to hide, the ashes fell like snow (snow...)
and the ground caved in between where we were standing...
And your voice was all I heard...
Did I get what I deserve?
ShootingStar
So give me a reason, to prove me wrong!
To Wash this memory clean.
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes.
Across this new divide!
Bumblebee started wailing on the guitar playing an epic solo. Students who were walking by heard it and peered through the door window, some even came into the room. The scout saw he was drawing attention and smiled. He grinned and turned the party up to an 11. Everyone started cheering, hollering, and most of the girls the front row looked like they were about to faint. And they did when Bumblebee winked at them, making them swoon and faint
Both
In every loss, and every lie
in every truth that you deny!
And each regret, and each goodbye
was all a mistake to great too hide!
and your voice was all I heard...
Did I get what I deserve?
Bumblebee
So give me reason, to prove me wrong,
to wash this memory clean.
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes!
Chorus(Both)
Give me reason to fill this hole
connect the space between!
Let it build up to reach the truths and lies!
Across this new divide! (x2)
Bumblebee
Across this new divide...
Bumblebee finished the song with a nice and slow strum of the cords, leaving the audience he gathered silent.
-Stop Playing New Divide-
Everyone in the room stood silent for a couple of moments. Leaving Bumblebee and ShootingStar thinking why they were all quiet. Suddenly the heard someone clapping, it increased to two people then three. Soon the whole room was cheering and chanting for the two. Many scram for an encore and to play the song again
Just then the bell for third period rang, everyone looked at each other and said their goodbye's. The last to leave were Bumblebee, ShootingStar, Sunset and Twilight.
"Well, we better go." Said Sunset and Twilight in unison.
Bumblebee and Star waved their hands in a farewell gesture and smiled.
Twilight and her friend walked out of the room, leaving Bumblebee and Star.
"Huh, I like those two." Said Star with a smile.
"Yeah. They're both... unique." Said Bumblebee agreeing.
Time: 2:30 (End of the school day)
Bumblebee was outside with Sunset, both were waiting for their friends.
Sunset was enjoying the quality time with Bumblebee, it gave her a chance to know him better.
"Hey Bee, can I ask you something." asked Sunset. Bumblebee looked at the girl.
"Yeah, what's up?" Bumblebee asked in reply.
"Uh, well I was wondering. If it's O.K with you, maybe we could I don't know..." She was cut off by Bumblebee.
"Let me guess, you wanna hang out with me, don't you?" Said Bumblebee with a smirk. Bumblebee knew that Sunset wanted to talk to him earlier about something, he already knew.
Sunset just blushed and smiled a shy smile, and nodded
"Mm-hm"
Bumblebee looked at Sunset and chuckled happily
"Yes, I would like to hang out. You seem like a really nice girl. Plus this will give me a chance to know you a little better" Said the young scout. He was feeling nervous and excited around Sunset, but he didn't know why.
'What is wrong with my spark? It's pumping and pulsing to fast and I'm getting nervous. I'm calm around the other female teens, but why am I so nervous around her... Is this what humans call a crush?"
Bumblebee was liking the feeling he felt. Sure he felt emotions when he was still Cybertronian, but he never felt this feeling before. The two continued chatting.
"So your from a different city in Equestria?" Asked Sunset curiously
"Yep." replied Bumblebee nonchalantly
"What's it called again? Assignment Vill?"
Bumblebee just chuckled at what the teen said.
"It's called Mission City, and it's near Manhattan."
"You mean Mane-hatten?"
"Uh. Yeah... Mane-hattan, that's it."
"What's it like there?"
"Hmm..." Said Bumblebee as he remembered life in Mission City.
Bumblebee explained everything, while having to tweak somethings (A LOT OF THINGS!). Sunset was fascinated by the story Bumblebee was saying.
"So you have a friend named Sam?" Asked a fascinated Sunset. Bumblebee nodded.
"He's my best friend, if someone knocked me down. Then HE'D be the one to pick me right back up" Bumblebee said with grief and a weak smile. Sunset comforted the young scout.
"He sounds like a good friend Bee." Sunset said with a smile. Bumblebee looked at the girl and thanked her.
"Thanks Sunny." Bumblebee said with a smile. Bumblebee, without hesitation, hugged Sunset. Sunset was knocked off her guard by this and blushed, but she returned the embrace. She leaned in close and whispered...
"Anything for you Bee."
Bumblebee was happy, something he hasn't felt after he left his Earth.
The two let go from the embrace and looked at each other. Both giggled nervously.
Bumblebee was about to say something but something out of the corners of his eye caught his attention.
The young Autobot stood up and decided to take a look at the schools statue. Sunset stood up and walked over to the statue with Bumblebee. He looked at the side of the Equine Statue, and right away noticed something familiar on the side, Cybertronian engravings.
"Are those... Cyber-glyphics?" Said an astonished Bumblebee. He hadn't seen Cyber-glyphics since he was on Cybertron!
"What are Cyber-glyphics?" Asked a confused Sunset.
Bumblebee had a look of fear on his face. But the scout mustered a lie.
"Oh uh, it's special kind of code and writing that we used back at my old school." said the scout in a thoughtful tone.
He took a closer look at the symbols and grazed his hand over them lightly. He felt the engraved features, smiled and chuckled happily.
"Well, it's nice to have a sign of home here." Bumblebee was glad of his finding.
Memories of Cybertron flooded his mind, the days before the Great War. He remembered the Golden Age and his old life. Without realizing, he let a single sky blue tear out.
Sunset saw this and comforted the yellow-peach teen.
"You alright Bee?" Asked Sunset worried. She saw Bumblebee acting a little strange after he noticed the engravings. The scout looked at the teen with a look of relief and happiness.
"Yeah, I'm alright. I just got a little overwhelmed by seeing the symbols. It just reminded me of home." He couldn't believe it! He actually found a piece of his world here!
"But WHO left it?" Bumblebee rubbed his chin and thought.
"Bee! There you are bro." Bumblebee turned around and smiled. It was ShootingStar.
"What are you doing?" asked Star.
"Just looking at the statue. You?"
"We were trying to find you two."
Just then the other 6 girls walked up to Bumblebee and ShootingStar.
"We found them, so what now?" asked Rainbow.
"Well, I think we should all get some rest. We'll need it for whatever were up against." Said Bumblebee.
"That's actually not a bad idea Bee." said Twilight. She then proceeded up the stairs to the door but was stopped by Bumblebee.
"Hey Twi, where are you going?" asked Bumblebee, confused about why Twilight was going back inside the school.
Twilight turned around and answered the young boys question.
"Well, last time I was here I slept in the School Library." Said Twilight calmly.
Pinkie decided to speak.
"Are you nuts!? We're totally BFF's now. SLUMBER PARTY AT MY HOUSE!" Shouted Pinkie. Everyone cheered, except for Bumblebee and ShootingStar. Pinkie noticed this and walked up to them.
"Aren't you guys coming?" asked Pinkie.
"Well, wouldn't your folks be upset about bringing two boys over-" said Bumblebee
"For a Sleepover-"
"At night?" Both boys said in unison.
"Nah, their perfectly fine with it!" said Pinkie smiling
The two boys looked at each other. Both whispered to each other. After they finished, they approached Pinkie and spoke.
"If it's alright with them." Bumblebee said. Pinkie Pie squealed happily and gave the two a bear hug.
"Sweet! More BFF's!"
Time: 7:00 P.M
Location: Pinkie Pie's House
Coordinates: 5300 South, 1700 East Cherry Lane.
Everyone was in Pinkie's room doing their own thing. The group was in their Pajama's, except for Bee and Star. The two weren't wearing their jackets. Twilight was on the bed writing in a journal given to her by Fluttershy, whom was petting a purple dog with green fur. Pinkie was lying on the floor, she was on her computer updating her status on Face-Mail
"Status Update: Okie Dokie Loki!"
Sunset and Rarity, along with ShootingStar and Fluttershy, were taking a selfie. After she took it, she looked at it and saw that she got Photo bombed by a yellow blur named Bumblebee. She looked at the photo with an expression of 'What!' on her face and turned her head to the yellow boy, who was looking at the white teen with a mischievous look. ShootingStar, Sunset, and Fluttershy just chuckled. Bumblebee, who ignored the scolding look Rarity gave, was playing Omega-Crash Dudes! for the MII TWO with Apple-Jack and Rainbow-Dash. Apple-Jack was winning by 7 death points, 2 were Bumblebee's death points, and the other 5 were Rainbow Dashes. Apple-Jack was winning but screwed up after she fell of the edge of the stage and blew up, giving Bee an extra point. Rainbow Dash was having a hard time getting in the lead, her score was -5 points. realizing that she would lose the match she slammed the game console, causing A.J and Bumblebee's remotes to disconnect from the console. The two looked at Rainbow-Dash with anger.
"Hey! I was winning!." Said Apple-Jack folding her arms.
"And I was so close to beating Apple-Jack! I was even using my best fighter, Speed the Cat!" Said Bumblebee slumping down. Rainbow Dash looked at the two and smiled.
"Yeah, I doubt it" Said Rainbow Dash as she spun the remote on her finger.
She stopped spinning the controller and looked up at Twilight.
"So Twilight, how's that counter spell coming?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"Oh, uh its coming along great." Twilight said as she flipped threw the pages of the notebook. She turned her attention to Fluttershy, who was holding a stuffed alligator/crocodile.
"And thanks Fluttershy for letting me use your notebook. I really like the song you wrote for the Rainbooms." Twilight said complementing Fluttershy.
"Thanks." Said Fluttershy smiling, but her smile faded into a sad frown and sighed.
"(sigh) Hopefully one day we'll get a chance to play it." said Fluttershy as she looked at Rainbow Dash, who was holding A.J and Bee's remotes. The two were trying to get them back. A.J stretched her arm out as far as she could but had no luck. Bumblebee grew tired of this and did the first thing that popped into his head. He let out a crazy Mr. Grinch laugh and tackled her.
"EIEIEIEIEIEIEIEIEIEIEIEIEIE-HA!" Shouted Bumblebee tackling Rainbow to the ground.
SonicPrimus7986: Poor Rainbow... She didn't even see it coming. :(
"Get off me Bee!" Demanded Rainbow Dash.
"NEVER!" Said Bumblebee reaching for his controller.
While the two were fighting over the controller, Rarity sat next to Twilight.
"Twilight, I think I speak for all of us when I say I don't know what we would've done if you hadn't come back to help us, and were really happy that you brought your friends with you." said Rarity. The others agreed, except for Rainbow and Bumblebee who were still fighting for the controller.
"Yeah, and with me and Bee here I'm sure that whatever or whoever we're facing will think twice when they see us coming." Said ShootingStar as he pounded his fist into his left palm. The girls looked at him with a confused look.
"Um... Twi?" Asked Sunset
"Yeah?" Asked Twilight back
"Didn't you tell them about who were up against yet?"
Something snapped inside of Twilights head. She forgot to tell them who they're facing!
"Um... no" said Twilight as she held her head down. Star looked at Twilight.
"Twilight, who are we up against anyway?" asked a concerned Star.
Bumblebee heard the conversation and sprung up with his controller in hand.
"Yeah, you never told us who we're facing." Said Bumblebee.
"Okay, the thing is. You guys are going up against Sir-" She was cut off by a ring of the house doorbell.
Pinkie Pie sprung up.
"Pizza's here!"
Everyone, except for Twilight and Bumblebee, dashed out of the room and down stairs. Twilight took a look at what she wrote down in the journal and looked worried, it was a bunch of scribbles and doodles. Bumblebee went over to Twilight and sat down.
"Hey, is everything okay?" asked Bumblebee. He was concerned about his friend and wanted to ease the pain.
"Yeah, everything's alright." Said twilight lying. She didn't want her friend to see the journal. Bumblebee stood back up
"If you say so. I'm going downstairs to get some pizza, see you down there." Said Bumblebee as he walked out the door. He looked down the stairs.
"Guys! Save some for me!" Yelled Bumblebee as he walked down the stairs. Just then she heard Bumblebee cry out in pain as he fell down the stairs.
"WAAAAAAAAA! Ouch!"
Pinkie Pie was standing in the doorway with a piece of pizza in her mouth.
"Don't you want any pizza?" asked Pinkie with the pizza still in her mouth. Twilight nodded and smiled and Pinkie went back downstairs, and accidentally stepped on Bumblebee.
"OUCH! PINKIE!" Shouted Bumblebee in pain.
"Oops! Sorry Bee!" Said Pinkie.
Twilight looked at the journal one last time and placed it in a night stand next to the bed. She had a look of sadness and despair on her face as she walked out the door.
SonicPrimus7986: Hehehe... Bumblebee got stepped on. How Ironic :)
Bumblebee: I HEARD THAT!
SonicPrimus7986: HA-WHAAAAAAA?!
Time: 12:00 A.M (Midnight)
Location: Downstairs at Pinkie's home
Coordinates: 5300 South, 1700 East Cherry Lane
The two Autobots were sleeping downstairs in the living room, ShootingStar, who was wearing a Bright blue and white T-shirt with a shooting star on the chest area, and dark blue sweat pants with sky blue socks, was sleeping on the couch. Bumblebee was sleeping in a sleeping bag on the floor. He tossed and turned and grunted, he was muttering in his sleep.
In his dream, Bumblebee was tied up to a chair. He struggled to break free from the ropes. A man stepped out of the shadows, he was a tall man in his 50's with Dark menacing red eyes, grey hair, black pants, silver dress shoes, and he wore dark grey gloves; the man also wore what looked like a generals vest. The man grinned, revealing his surprisingly sharp teeth. Bumblebee recognized who this was and became extremely frightened.
"Megatron? Alive? NO!"
Bumblebee jolted up and gasped while breathing rapidly. He was wearing a black tank top with a yellow pin stripe across the chest. He put his hand to his forehead and spoke.
"Megatron's alive! But I thought Sam scraped him? Or... was that even the Megatron that had his spark extinguished?" Bumblebee said in confusion, he wasn't sure about what he just saw, and why he saw Megatron.
The young scout decided to get up and get a drink of water from the kitchen. He unzipped the sleeping bag and got up, revealing that he had on yellow shorts. Bumblebee made his way into the kitchen.
As he entered, he saw Twilight and Sunset talking. Bumblebee took a few steps back slowly and quietly, not wanting to interrupt the conversation. He heard Twilight speak.
"...That's what everyone keeps telling me." Said Twilight
"Telling her what?" whispered Bumblebee to himself. He thought for a moment, and realized what she meant.
"Oh, I understand now! She's doubting herself, and is..." said Bumblebee as he frowned.
"Is not sure if she can accomplish the task." Bumblebee sighed and returned to listen to the conversation.
"Who could possibly need this much whip-cream?" asked Sunset as she opened the fridge with a confused look.
"Whip-cream?" asked Bumblebee to himself. he continued to listen.
"Must be nice to have everyone always looking to you for answers to their problems. Instead of waiting for you to cause a problem." Said Sunset somberly. She pressed the Spray tip and sprayed some whip cream on her finger
"I know how you feel Sunny..."
Twilight and Sunset turned their heads and saw Bumblebee.
"Bumblebee? how long have you been standing there?" Asked Sunset nervously.
"The whole time. And I know what you mean Sunset." Bumblebee said as he walked over to the fridge, he grabbed a water pitcher and filled a cup with water. He took a sip of the water and resumed speaking.
"All my life Iv'e been mistreated, made fun of, even tortured..." Said Bumblebee sad and dark. He rubbed his throat, making it look like he lost something. Twilight and Sunset looked at each other, both of the girls had a look of sadness on their face.
"But with the right group of friends, I managed to turn myself around and I became a hero." Said Bumblebee calmly. He took another sip of his water.
"And you can become a hero to." Said Bumblebee smiling, making Sunset smile to.
"Thanks Bee, I appreciate that." Sunset shut the fridge and ready to leave. But was stopped by Bumblebee
"Sunset?" Said Bumblebee.
"Yeah Bee?" Asked Sunset.
Bumblebee shook his head and smiled.
"Nothing, it's not important." Said Bumblebee
Sunset just scratched her head, shrugged, and went back to bed.
Bumblebee walked over to the counter where Twilight was.
"Now on to more pressing matters. Twilight, I need to know what I'm going up against so I can take it out." Said a serious Bumblebee.
"Ok Bee.. I'll tell you." said Twilight.
"Good, then start explaining so I can be prepared." Said Bumblebee as he folded his arms.
Twilight proceeded explaining about the enemies Bumblebee was up against.
"... Sirens. As in Mermaids?" Asked Bumblebee confused.
"Yep"
Bumblebee just had a look of 'what the heck'
"... You do know I come from a world where mermaids are a myth right?"
"And you know that I'm a magical pony princess from another world that has never heard of robotic organisms from another world that have real emotions, nerves and hearts, right?"
She was right, Bumblebee was from a world that was completely polar opposite to Twilights.
"Touché my friend." Said Bumblebee scratching his head.
"They are magical, and they receive their magic from special pendents that they wear. They are very powerful, I've already seen what it can do to a normal person, but what it could do to you? I'm not really sure."
Bumblebee looked puzzled by this information. And very frightened by the fact of what it sounds like to him.
"Pendants you say? Hm... Twilight, back on my home planet Cybertron there's an ancient device that sounds a lot like these so called 'magical' pendants. It was called the Energon Harvester."
"Energon What?" Asked Twilight confused
"An Energon Harvester. It was a device used by the 13 original Primes, the machine had the power to absorb energy from planets Suns, and the energy that was siphoned from said sun would be transformed into pure raw Energon, the life blood of all Cybertronians."
Twilight looked confused but felt fascinated by this device.
"Tell me more about this machine."
"Like what?" Asked Bumblebee
"What is the power source of said machine?"
Bumblebee was remembering the power source of the Harvester.
"The power source was called the Matrix of Leadership. The Matrix was a key, a vessel containing much of Cybertrons past and present through the collective wisdom of the Ancient Primes. Which means only a Prime who wields the Matrix can activate the devastating power of the Harvester."
Twilight was at a loss for words.
"The machine you described sounds very dangerous." said Twilight feeling frightened.
"It was, and it nearly destroyed all life." said Bumblebee with a heavy heart.
"how?" asked Twilight confused
Bumblebee just stared off thinking. He shook his head and took a breath.
"Another story for another time. Anyways, lets take a look at the spell you wrote." said Bumblebee.
Twilight felt hesitant, but handed Bumblebee the notebook. Bumblebee opened it and saw the scribbles and doodles, his face went completely blank.
"I know it's not much, but it's all I've got so far. And it's not that good."
Bumblebee blinked three times just to make sure that he wasn't seeing this, but sadly it was real.
"Is this the counter spell you've been working on?" Asked Bumblebee dumbfounded.
Twilight nodded and hung her head down.
"It's no good. I don't think I'll be able to get it ready before we play in the battle of the bands." said Twilight feeling despair.
"Then let me help you Twily." Said Bumblebee as he wrapped his arm around Twilight comforting her.
Twilight didn't know what to do. Should she let Bumblebee help, or should she try on her own.
"It's your choice Twi, I'm not forcing you."
Twilight went over the pros and cons, and in the end the pros outweighed the cons. She looked at Bumblebee and smiled.
"Alright Bee, let's work on this counter spell together."
Bumblebee was thrilled with her decision.
"Alright then, let's get to work!"
The two immediately got to work. Bumblebee grabbed a blank piece of paper and started jotting down ideas for the song. Twilight got to work on her version of the song but was having some difficulty with using her hands.
"Twilight, you need some help?"
"No, I can do it!"
Twilight resumed writing but used her mouth instead. Bumblebee looked at Twilight with a confused look but shrugged it off and resumed writing his song.
After an hour of writing the two decided to take a break. Bumblebee was grabbing some stuff to make a sandwich as Twilight was looking out the window, gazing at the stars.
"wow! Such a beautiful night." Said Twilight looking out of the window.
Bumblebee was making his sandwich, he put everything on it! Chips, turkey, ham, pickles, mustard, mayonnaise, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and BACON!
Twilight turned around and saw the monster sandwich.
"That's a pretty big Sandwich Bee. You sure you can eat it all?" Said Twilight questioning the scouts appetite.
Bumblebee looked at Twilight with a grin.
"I don't know but I'm about to find out!" Said Bumblebee looking at the sandwich. He started licking his lips. The young scout wasted no time in eating the sandwich, within a few seconds the sandwich was gone.
"*BURP* Ah, that hit the spot!" said Bumblebee satisfied patting his stomach.
"What is it with your kind anyways? It's like you've never been turned human before."
Bumblebee looked back at Twilight and smiled.
"I don't need to be a human to enjoy food!" Said Bumblebee removing a chip from his tooth.
"I thought robots couldn't eat?" Said Twilight
"Well I'm not Cybertronian anymore, so yeah." Said Bumblebee as he grabbed the sandwich supplies and put them back in the fridge.
Twilight just sighed, shook her head, and looked back out of the window.
Bumblebee looked at Twilight staring at the night sky and thought to himself
'I wonder why she's looking out the window? Maybe I should ask her what's going on.'
Bumblebee walked over to Twilight and sat down next to her.
"Hey Twi?" Asked Bumblebee
"Yeah?" Said Twilight
"Is everything ok?"
Twilight looked at Bumblebee and shook her head.
"The story that you told me, about the Primes and their machine. It got me thinking about how your war started."
Bumblebee was puzzled after hearing that.
"Well, my story isn't all sunshine and lollipops like yours. Mines a little, darker." Said Bumblebee looking up at the stars.
"The tell me." Said Twilight
Bumblebee let out a sigh.
"Ok, this is how it started. On my home-world, Cybertron, before the great war we only knew peace. A peace that flourished under the reign of Optimus Prime, future leader of the Autobots, and Lord High protector Megatron. At first, Prime and Megatron were equals. Neither one questioning the other about their power and how it was used. But then one day, something changed in Megatron. He became power hungry and wanted the energy source that gave us life, the Allspark, all to himself and with his followers, the Decepticons, he nearly accomplished his goal for power. That is until ShootingStar and I stopped him."
Twilight looked at Bumblebee confused.
"How did you stop Megatron?" Asked Twilight.
"By doing the only thing we could. We launched the Allspark into deep space so that Megatron could never obtain it and the power that it had. And for that, Star and I payed the ultimate price." Said Bumblebee sadly
"What happened?" Asked Twilight.
Bumblebee took a deep breath.
"Megatron smashed my voice box, and destroyed Stars logic capacitor functions."
Twilight was shocked by the story and started to cry.
"Oh Bumblebee, I'm so sorry that you and Star had to go through that!" Said Twilight
"Don't be sad Twilight, Star and I were doing our jobs. If we didn't launch the AllSpark into space then Megatron would've won the war. We are soldiers who are willing to die for the safety of others." Said Bumblebee smiling.
Twilight looked at Bumblebee and gave him a hug. Bumblebee hugged back and smiled.
"And besides, if I hadn't followed the energy trail the Cube left behind then I would've never met Sam, Mikaela, Major Lennox, or you!" Said Bumblebee letting go of the hug. He was feeling good about telling Twilight his past, almost as if a huge burden was lifted off his shoulders.
"And while we're telling stories, mind if you tell me yours?" Said Bumblebee leaning on the seat.
Twilight thought for a moment, and decided to tell her story.
"Ok Bee, here's how my story goes."
Bumblebee opened his ears and was ready to hear Twilights story.
"It all started with the Royal Sisters, one ruled the day and one ruled the night..."
