Atom! I could use a little bit of that helpful right now! I am not going to be able to keep this boost up forever!

"I am looking… Found it! Activate GraviBees Sphere!" Atom called, and suddenly a massive sphere surrounded me, and the Monstrapede froze, and I instantly shut off my boosters.

The Monstrapede looked frantic, but then it stopped moving. Then it started to shake; slowly at first, but the shaking was affecting me too, and I could feel the tremors starting to increase.

[Vulture Bee Shot x5] Activated!

[Consume] Activated!

"Get back!" Atom called to me as I started to vibrate with the creature.

I used my feet to push me back from the Monstrapede just before it let out a soul-tearing scream that ripped through my giant body. I watched in horror and fascination as the creature started to fall apart.

The exposed areas would have made me and anyone else watching throw up, and I had to look away. Hundreds of thousands, maybe millions; I wasn't sure, and I really didn't care.

The sight of seeing all the small black and blood-red long Bees eating the insides out of that creature was hard on the nerves. How were there so many of them when only five-hit?

"The vulture shot is a self-replicating Bee drone that is carnivorous. Once they are done feeding, they will combine back into five hand-sized Vulture Bees that will store themselves inside of you. You will be able to summon a mechanized version of them, but it will be one-sixth of its original size because you only used five of the thirty," Atom explained, putting his helpful skill to use as I shut off my hearing.

While this was useful, it was gruesome and almost like torture. In my current situation, this was my only hope for survival and for the girls, but I still didn't like it.

"Just going to throw this out there, and I am no mathematician, BUT. If you shoot the whole clip, wouldn't it go a lot faster, and most of the targets will be a lot smaller. We had no time to decide or even know what they did without looking into the info; cough, Atom. Still, we will all help Atom look over the other things in this… Mode, I guess you would call it," Thanos explained, and I had to agree.

This all happened so fast, but if I had waited any longer at any point, that girl might have died. Thank you all for helping out, but I am hoping that this is enough to level me up and for you all to come out.

[Consume] Completed!

[Vulture Bee x5] Returning!

Ugh, I wished the System didn't have to sound so excited in the Text Windows. I turned my sound back on and turned around to look at what was left.

Only the plates, legs, head, and a number of other things that didn't count for meat, and I shook my head, but it was over.

[GraviBee Sphere] Deactivated!

[Warning!] Energy Exhaustion Imminent!

[DragonBee] Deactivated!

Then the world went dark for me.

[View of Tag, Sig, Granthus, and Pendra]

"What do you mean you can't make them work?!" The once Queen Bee, Pendra asked Granthus in shock.

The two of them had been following the drones with the strangely quiet guards, Tag and Sig. The two were twin Ferret Folk, but it was hard to tell that now with the changes that they have undergone from their evolutions.

The men had not spoken since Ashia had left unless it was to give directions. That was because they had been talking with each other through thought.

Now, something had changed, and they had both tried to contact Gamble or anyone but had got no answer. That only meant one thing.

"Everyone, something has happened on the ship, and we are getting no response from them or the ship. This would explain why the QBee and NekoBee are inactive. That means that the four of us now have a job because the Queen has been taken into custody by the Sky Folk," Tag explained in a grave voice.

"What do you mean she has been taken? Can it happen so easily, and why do you two, her Royal Guards, look so calm?!" Pendra asked, but Granthus remained calm; it was only Pendra that didn't know of the dominance the Sky Folk possessed.

"They were set on by five carriers that had over seven thousand smaller vessels. They stood no chance, and the last report I got from a very frustrated Gamble was that they were boxed in and being forced to go meet with the council. We can all safely assume that things did not go to plan, and something has happened that they will have to go before the Supreme Sky Council to explain their case," Sig explained, and Tag continued.

"With this happening, that means that there are only the four of us to go and deal with the Tellarider," Tag started to say, but then froze as a Kunai Blade touched his throat, and an ultra-black arm coalesced from black smoke holding it.

"I kill you! What? Did you think leaving the Hive meant you could let your guard down? See? The Path guided me to you to correct the stupid in your ways!" Will, the AssassiBee Raccoon Folk, whispered in Tag's ear before letting him go with a laugh.

As he did, the other AssassiBee Raccoon Folk, John, appeared from the mist, and then Miku, Royal wife to Ashia, the Queen. Rixie, another Raccoon Folk, who was also a Shadow Walker, and wife in training as Miku called her, came out after her.

"You won't have to do it alone, and we will have one more to add for this mission, but he will be fetched by me. The Miscreant is still out there, and I am going to use the Path to find him and help him complete his mission or mess it all up," Will said, only half-joking.
