The ruins of the Nemesis was quite the sight. Not as neat as Cybertron or as pretty as Earth but it was something alright. Bee was here with his guardian, Megatron, for the time being as Ultra could not watch over him at this time. Not that the baby was complaining or anything but he would admit, some of the residents of the Nemesis confused him to the point where he wasn't sure if they were friendly or not.
There was the spider-like bot apparently name "Blak-aracia", was it? He wasn't sure if he heard that right but "Blak-aracia" had quite the unique appearance. The baby smiled at her as she poured some sort of green liquid in a funny looking container and stored it in a cabinet far above him. He wondered how he was going to get up there but the thought was lost as "Blak-aracia" picked him up and cooed at him. The way she was speaking to him made him giggle.
She eventually handed him over to some blue-faced stranger with a sandy, purple, and black color pattern. The blue-faced mech turned his head in a silly manner, prompted Bee to do the same with one brow raised. The baby felt confused when the mech called "Blizing" set him down on a table and suddenly covered his own face. Was this a trick? As soon as "Blizing" opened his hands again, the blue-faced mech was gone. Instead a red face with a yellow eye cover was there.
But…wait what? How could a blue face disappear and come back red? Bumblebee gave a small whine as he tried to figure out what just happened. Was this still "Blizing" or someone new? He had the same body, doesn't he? All those thoughts made the baby's helm hurt so much, he put his arms over his head and rubbed his temple against the side of one of them. Then the red faced mech put his hands over his face too. When he opened them once more, another unrecognizable face took its place. This one seemed black with red eyes and a scary mouth.
Baby Bee backed away frightened at the new face and apparently, this new mech noticed. He saw "Blizing" rotate his face back until he saw the blue one and then he understood: they were the same person! The blue-faced mech rubbed his helm playfully and Bee purred back, now more comfortable knowing they were all one the entire time. Such scary nonsense.
Once again he was handed to another bot for the time being but this one seemed…weirder. Five red optics stared at him and he could only stare back in equal silence. He had never met someone with more than four before. It made him wonder how his vision worked. The rather massive mech named "Lugut" held him in two clawed pinchers that also didn't look like any servos he had ever seen. Simply strange this mech was, but the mech seemed nice…er. After the mech started ranting about his caretaker, Megatron, he had fallen asleep.
When Bumblebee awoke, someone new was holding him. Instead of multiple optics, this mech had one! He couldn't help but sound the babbled equivalent of "whoa". This was "Shocave", presumably. Gently, the mech positioned him to sit on his crossed legs on one of the tables in the room. Bee was delighted when he saw a rattle in the three-clawed hands of the mech waving it above him. How was he to resist that? He tried and tried again to reach it until it was finally given to him. He heard the one-eyed mech chuckle as he nibbled on the spherical end of the toy.
The one-eyed mech lastly handed him to another mech but unlike the others, "Shocave" began telling the other mech something rather in a vicious tone. He noticed this new mech was someone who could fly actually since he could identify the wings on the mech's back. "Starscream" is he remembered correctly. His keeper always brought this mech up once in a while unlike the others so he knew the mech's name quite well. He had also seen the winged one talking to his caretaker in the other rooms of Steelhaven.
This Starscream was prideful from what he could tell and very chatty, even more so than the giant purple mech with multiple optics. He began ranting quite the opposite of what "Lugut" was saying, insulting his caretaker rather than praising him. The sparkling didn't like how he was being thrown into the air and caught rather roughly while being mocked no less. At least caretaker Ultra did it gentler. It wasn't until the fifth time he was tossed and caught too abrasively that he had enough. With a loud cry, Bumblebee's voice echoed through the halls.
He continued to shriek until he was taken from the winged mech's arms and into whom he recognized as his caretaker's comforting servos. Slowly his cries died down until they were mere whimpers. Megatron looked very displeased, the expression shot directly at the one called Starscream. The other followers of his caretaker arrived to with similar looks. Starscream grimaced at them all as the baby was taken from the room.
Megatron brought Bee to his face where the tiny sparkling pressed his hands onto the white surface next to the larger mech's mouth. Although it was nice to meet most of his keeper's crew, he rather liked being with the grey mech better.
AN: I figured it was time to see how the other Decepticons would take to Baby Bee. I'm sorry if Starscream is your favorite character in Animated and you think I wrote him wrong. To be fair, the entire show he was trying to overthrow Megatron so I figured he wouldn't be too kind to a sparkling in Megatron's charge whom Megatron himself cherishes.
