The smaller of the two raised his head, alerted by the whisper. When his gaze fell upon Honey he nudged the other one and pointed up at her with his snout. For a moment the two simply stared up at her with interest.

Honey stared at them with wide eyes before she felt something grab her and drag her back into the house. Oil quickly shut the door and locked it again. “What were you thinking?”

“I wanted to see what my drones saw.” She said quietly. “I just wanted to know what we’re fighting-”

The drones watched the two with curiosity, Honey watching from upstairs, the door to the balcony cracked open a bit. She eventually moved towards the front of the balcony to get a better look of the creatures.

Those were not human. But clearly not robots either.

Oil was obviously shaking at the thought of having to fight something. Would he? Of course. He would protect his family no matter what. However he knew there was a slim chance of him succeeding. Honey had a better chance at fighting than he would.

Quick only shook his head in response. “Just what Heat told us… That it was Sand.” He drew a deep breath before continuing, “Is Apis home? I want to talk to him.”
