Your sentence is a little odd, and I would change it to What will become of me? One dictionary calls become of a phrasal verb: 'to be the fate of; happen to': What has become of the old garden? But I don't think that term is correct.

- I would call it an idiomatic verb phrase (verb + preposition), since it must be always kept together-- ( X ) What became finally of?
- -- and cannot be fronted-- ( X ) Of what became?
