	One day, Bumblebee was plagued by nightmares of spirits demanding him to deliver a package. The nightmares lasted for a month before he delivered the package but to his dismay they resumed shortly after, one containing a bomb that destroyed the Tygun factory. Overcome with guilt, he immediately turned himself in where he first met [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Orion Pax]] and [[Prowl (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Prowl]] who managed to deduce that Bumblebee was being influenced by an outside signal that was being ~~broadcasted~~ into his processor. Despite being told to remain behind, Bumblebee followed Pax and Prowl to the Decepticon hideout.

In the aftermath, he asked to join Pax's squad. {{storylink\|Ghost Stories}} Bumblebee was somewhat taken aback when he began to notice how the job was making Orion increasingly disillusioned and violent, as was evidenced when Pax was brutal with [[Swindle (G1)\|Swindle]] during a raid on the criminal's illegal weapons-manufacturing operation. {{storylink\|The Falling, Chapter 5: Endless Forever\|Endless Forever}}		One day, Bumblebee was plagued by nightmares of spirits demanding him to deliver a package.
