Transformers Prime: A New Beginning

Chapter 85: Predacon's Rising

Normal Perspective:

A few days had passed since Cybertron's restoration, and the Autobots, with Optimus's guidance, had figured out where to begin with rebuilding their home.

In that time, plans for Cybertron's eventual reconstruction were being worked on, as well as recruiting the Decepticons they had taken prisoner, with those wishing to help being given jobs to do, while those who refused and stayed loyal to Megatron were kept in the cell blocks.

Michael had also, after doing a thorough check of the Warship and making sure that no Heartless or otherworldly entities remained, returned the lost hearts back to where they belonged once again, bringing an end to the Omniversal crisis once and for all. He did, however, keep the container as a memento like before, but also decided to keep it for emergency purposes, just in case it was ever needed again.

However, those were not the only things being worked out, for a special ceremony was being held that morning to promote a certain Autobot scout to the rank of warrior at long last, much to the elation and glee of one bot in particular.

One early morning, inside the Decepticon Warship known as the Nemesis, Bumblebee's optics onlined, the scout feeling exhausted at having to get up when it was still dark out, or at least, dark on their planet. Looking next to him, he found two dual-colored optics and a bright smile looking at him, piercing through the darkness and lighting the room up. Bumblebee immediately smiled.

He always did upon seeing Michael's beautiful faceplate.

"Good morning, my soon-to-be warrior," He said with a bright grin, as Bumblebee smiled even more.

"Good morning, Mike." He looked at his chronometer, seeing that it was 5:00 AM, and he groaned. "How do you put up with being awake so early?"

Michael smiled. "A lot of practice, and now it just comes naturally to me."

Bumblebee couldn't hold back a grin. "You're so cute, you know that?"

Michael blushed, flashing a big grin. "I do, but I see someone who's just as cute before me, if not borderline adorable."

Bumblebee blushed hard, and leaned in for a deep kiss, their dermas connecting, and Michael melted into it.

They never got tired of how fantastic of a kisser the other was.

Breaking their kiss, they looked into each other's optics, an underlying feeling beneath the beautiful colors within them. A feeling that they wanted to explore and let free at that moment, but they knew that didn't have time for such that morning.

Michael grinned, excited, but for an entirely different reason. "Wanna get ready?"

Bumblebee smiled. "Sure, as much as I'd rather stay here and cuddle with the sexiest guy I know."

Michael blushed hard, giggling at how cute Bumblebee was being.

Bumblebee then smirked as an idea came to him. "Wanna shower together?"

Michael blushed harder, but grinned. "I'd absolutely love to."

Reluctantly getting up from their berth, the two exited their room, heading for the washracks servo-in-servo.

Walking into the room and entering one of the washracks, Bumblebee changed the settings from solvent to water, and turned it on. Turning to face Michael, he couldn't help but look at the way his frame glistened in the light as it became wet, and smiled, pulling him into a long kiss, passionate kiss, to which Michael eagerly kissed back, for he too couldn't help but take in how beautiful and sexy Bumblebee looked with water running down his beautiful frame. Breaking their kiss, they looked into each other's optics, smiling lovingly at each other before going in for another. Michael couldn't help but realize that in just a few short hours, Bumblebee was going to become a warrior, and he couldn't help but feel proud of him.
