Tis a question for your dead bot au; would the autobots like, chase after bee after he runs away from them upon realizing that he's alive?

Autobots: BEE?! You're ALIVE-

Bee: (already 10 miles away) who?!

Also what would happen if the relic was taken out of bee? Would he die again? Cuz I was thinking like, if Ghost was still there, they might wanna make a grab since it's not everyday there's something that can uno reverse death

Tbh I didn't even think about what would happen to the relic after it was used to revive Bee, but this question inspired me and I thought of something!

Oh but to answer your first question, yes! The Autobots, if/when they find out he's alive chase after him. But Bee being the scout he is, trained to be the best spy within Autobot ranks, is not easy to track or locate when he doesn't want to be found.

I've seen some people interpret Bee's feelings against the Autobots as anger, him blaming them for what happened to him, but it's more complex than that. He doesn't hate them, he couldn't hate them. They were like family to him. He's hurt, he feels betrayed. Not knowing how to deal with these emotions, and not wanting to confront them, he hides himself from the world and runs the second the Autobots find him.

As for the relic, It became drained of its power after being used to bring Bee back. But the Decepticons don't know that, nor do the Autobots. The very object Bee was killed over was used to bring him back to life.

Spoilers for the fic, The battle Bee was killed in was over the Relic. It had fallen to earth, and the Cons and Autobots detected its presence. (Inspired by the Relics of Iacon in TFP being sent to earth during the war on Cybertron.) After Bee was killed the Autobots couldn't care less about what the Relic could have been, in that moment everything else fell from their minds. The Decepticons got away with the Relic and Bumblebee's life. Breakdown "Borrowed" The relic from the Decepticons in hopes of it being capable of helping Bee. To his luck, it was. After reviving Bee Breakdown returned it to the vault now drained of all power. For all they knew, it was empty when they fought for it.

This AU is set not long after the defeat of GHOST and Mandroid, just to make things more angsty. Everyone, especially the Malto kids, had barely any time to recover mentally before losing Bee.

Hiiya i absolutely love your Dead Bot Walking au and I think that you’d mentioned in another post how bumblebee refuses to return back to the auto bots since he believes they left him behind. Is that the true story from the autobots pov? Or was there a reason they didn’t go back for him/take him back? Sorry if this question is asking for spoilers! I was just wondering lol have a great day!

Hiii Thanks sm!

sorry it took me so long to get to your ask omg :<

It's not the same case from the Autobots POV. They went back to the site where they watched him die countless times, they searched for what was left of him. But since Breakdown had taken and revived Bee, they didn't find him. No matter how many decepticons they questioned, or how many searches they did.

During the battle when Bee was offlined, the Autobots were forced to retreat due to heavy fire from the Decepticons. none of them wanted to leave him there. But that's not how Bee see's it. I believe I've said this in a reply before, but Bee doesn't hate them for leaving him, he's hurt. He feels betrayed. Unable to face them knowing they didn't fight like hell to save him. Given the impression they didn't care as much as he thought they did...

Ty for the ask!! :3
