A small bit I inserted into rise of the beast while they were waiting with the maximuls in Peru.
Noah's pov:
me elana and mirage were sitting in a somewhat of a circle. I looked across the field to stratosphere who just landed bringing the body of their fallen friend down to them. I realized I didn't even know the bots name. "mirage who was he" I ask Ponting at the bot. "Oh.... His name was bumblebee but we all called him bee" he looked back but I wanted to know more. "Why is his name that" I questioned further. "it was given to him by a human when he first got here his original name was B-127 poor kid to" I looked at elana who was almost deep in thought. "bumblebee used his radio to talk why didn't he just speak" elana asked.
"he didn't like to talk about it but he was the first one of us on earth and the first thing he got was a attack from the military then a decepticon tracked him down and......" Elana placed a hand on his ped. "Then what" she sounded so interested. "then they .... Tore out his voice box" me and elana both grabbed our necks just imagining the pain. "pore kid he's been though so much and to die so soon..... He was only 16-17 in human years" mirage finished. He was so young. "he was the funniest bot you'd ever meet aside from me of course" I laughed at this and so did elana. "Heck kids has already died and come back to life I hope he can do it again" I stair at him. "He's died" elana shouted. "shhh pipe down or optimus will head you but yeah kids got spark"

"BEE" arcee shouted and ran up and hugged bee. ::I'm happy... To see you.. To:: bee wirrs though his radio. Optimus walked up to him. ::you think..its that easy... To get rid of.. Me:: bee says playfully. Prime smiles. Bee leans down to me in mirages suet. ::you gain one you lose another:: his radio sings sadly. "I'm still here you know" bee looked shocked. ::that's goooood... How you doing.. Little man..and Lady:: we just smile. ::so...Captain... I obviously missed something:: he said mounting to the maximuls. "its a long story that we will tell you on the way back" arcee said and started walking off. "Come on Noah I told you the kids got spark and apartment bumblebees have 9 lives" he said jokingly. "yeah I guess you do to" and earn a laugh back.
