Bumblebee's Story: New Age, New Life

"Bumblebee, you...Do you like it here?"
"Well, I do miss my old life...But, this place, this planet is nice."
"Do you...feel that you could call it home?"
"I...really don't know, Stellarshine...I mean, home as in 'place of belonging.' But, y'know, I really like you. You've been a great friend to me, and these past 100 years with you have been nothing but bliss. I hope our friendship never ends."
"I like you, too, Bumblebee. I want to be your friend forever..."
"I will be. I promise I'll always be your friend and I'll always be there when you need me."
"And I promise that I'll be there for you, too, Bumblebee."

During an important solo mission, Bumblebee is captured by the Decepticons and they torture him for 50 years. After soaking up every ounce of information from him and using him as bait to lure many unfortunate Autobots, they dispatch Bumblebee out into the endless universe, leaving him for dead. After 2 years of being in a deep emergency lock down stasis, Bumblebee's body is recovered by a group of neutral Cybertronians who have colonized the nearby Planet Cylus, lead by King Sunus. Among the group is King Sunus's only daughter, Princess Stellarshine. Upon rescuing Bumblebee, and seeing that he is revived, the Princess soon becomes his mentor and she teaches him about the ways of the Cylus Cybertronians. And their mentor-student relationship soon turns to friendship, which soon becomes very intimate. After 2000 years or so, the Autobots come upon Planet Cylus, where Bumblebee has already accepted a new life.
