Bumblebee and Altair Comet are on their way to the planet Quintessa, which was actually named after the Quintessons' mistress, Quintessa herself. She is the creation/daughter of Quintus Prime, who is one of the Original Thirteen Primes. After, the defeat of The Fallen, the rest of the surviving Primes went their separate ways. They remember what their father, Optimus told them that Quintus went to an unnamed planet and decided to create his own citizens here that's how the Quintessons were created.

Quintus Prime decided that he should have a child to carry on his legacy as he created Quintessa as his daughter, but over time when she has grown a young adult after she learned about Cybertron and believed that she and Quintessons are superior and they should rule Cybertron, but Quintus Prime disagrees this which caused Quintessa to plot to kill him. She did commit patricide on her own creator/father.

She was also responsible for killing their paternal grandparents (Optimus Prime's parents) to keep their son safe and have Alpha Trion to be his guardian. When their father became a young adult and was the data clerk, "Orion Pax" Quintessons returned and attempted to reclaim Cybertron. Alpha Trion reveals his secret about their father's parents being Solarguard and Aquila Theta/Thetas Prime, their father overcome his fear of his parents' murderer as he defeated the Quintessons with help from their mother when she was Ariel, Megatron when he was Megatronus, and their friends.

Bumblebee thinks back to when he was reunited with his younger sister on Earth.

(Flashback)

Bumblebee, Arcee, Bulkhead, and Smokescreen are back at the camp with Jack and Miko along with Barricade when they got a call from Orion Eclipse that he and Megatron apprehended Overload and the mysterious femme is safe and comes with them.

"I wonder who's this mystery femme that Barricade and Overload are after?" Bulkhead asked "Beats me, it could just be a femme they trying to capture and hold her prison" Smokescreen suggested "Or maybe a femme that we know, but haven't seen her in years," Bumblebee added as Orion Eclipse and Megatron arrived dragging the unconscious Overload by the arms "Where's the femme?" Arcee asked "Right behind us" Megatron answered as Altair Comet appeared, which caused the Autobots to be shocked "No, it can't be," Bulkhead said "How's this possible?" Arcee wondered "Yeah," Smokescreen said as Bumblebee is the most shocked one when he saw his adopted sister "Altair? Is that really you?" Bumblebee said as he slowly approaches her "Yes, it's me" Altair said with a smile as Bumblebee smiles back as they hugged each other with tears of joy.

"I thought I'll never see you again" Bumblebee said in a cracked voice "Me neither" she replied in a cracked voice too as she realized that her adopted brother had his voice back "Wait a minute, you have your voice back! How?" she asked "It's a long story," he said, "I'll tell when we get back to Cybertron."

(Flashback ends)

Bumblebee sadly sighs at that memory, he was glad that he was reunited with his sister, but his mother is still out there in the galaxy. Altair saw Bumblebee's sad face and wondered what was wrong with him "Is something wrong, Big Brother Bee?" She asked. Altair always call him "Big Brother Bee" when they were kids. "I just miss Mom, Baby sis" he replied "And I'm just afraid that I'll lose her and never see her again, just with you and Dad" Bumblebee explained as he referred to Optimus Prime as "Dad". Altair saddens too "I miss Mom and Dad" she replied "After the battle of Tyger Pax, after Megatron crushed your voice box and you nearly die if Ratchet hadn't patched you up, I was scared that I could've lost you" she explained.

Bumblebee comfortingly puts his hand on her shoulder "I know you are, but if we never get to see Mom again, we'll always have each other" he said with a comforting smile as she smiles back and they arrived at Quintessa "We're here" Altair said as Bumblebee activates the com unit on the computer in the ship "Bumblebee to Orion, come in" he said as Orion answers "Orion here, have you arrived Bumblebee?"
