The vents were quite large ,Axel noticed, able to fit his large stature.When they made it out of the vents Axel realized that they were in the massive hole he first entered. "If we're going to keep moving, he needs an actual body," he says, pointing a clawed finger at Beau."Ok how about this one" Alice suggests walking towards a corpse missing its left arm."hmm" Axel inspects it for a bit, then preceding to walk towards the pile of disassembler remains. Beau follows them while thinking about the prospect of having a body. Axel grabs a DD arm and walks back towards the corpse."This should work" he says as he installs the arm to the worker's corpse."Oh, I know, how about we give him a tail too" Alice says. Hearing this Beau displays a happy face and nods his head, he then crawls up Axel and taps his antlers."We can also add antlers"Axel says, smiling. Alice goes in search of supplies to make antlers for Beau, while Axel begins to attach a DD tail to the corpse. Beau goes back to the other DD remains and grabs DD's claws, bringing them back to Axel."How do you want me to attach these?'' He asks as Beau proceeds to draw in the dust a grappling hook tail. Axel nods and one of his fingers turns into a blow torch, melting the four blades together. Alice appears holding a bunch of random knives"While I was searchin' I didn't see any sentinels"She says handing him the pile of knives"That is concerning"Axel states as he attaches the tail and begins melding the knife together into antlers. Finishing the modifications they begin to search for a safe place to transfer Beau. As they search they enter a room that seems secure enough, Axel barricades the door and they set Beau up to transfer. Alice goes into sleep mode to save power, while she does that, Axel stands guard. 2 hours into the process Axel hears the chirping of a sentinel. Flipping down his visor, he prepares for combat only to hear the sentinel fading away. Turning around he sees [Transfer Complete] on the corpse's face. Walking over he wakes up Alice and points to the now awakening Beau in his new body."How ya feelin', idjit"Alice ask as Beau looks around, moving his arms and legs.Inspecting his tail and moving it around a bit, he looks at his clawed hand and flexes his claws. Smiling he says"I-I feel gre-at" His voice sounding a little glitchy making him confused."The glitchy voice box is probably because we used a corpse" Axel states. As the group of three leave the room and keep walking they hear the sound of sentinel chirping."Beau tap the side of your head"Axel says while also tapping his head. A quite glitchy 'wo-o-ah' is heard behind him as a reflective visor slides in front of his face."I added that while you were transferring, Alice, do you want one?" He says"That'd be a good idea" she replies as a sentinel turns the corner. Axel grabs its face with his tail and slams it into the ground as another one comes from behind them and is shot by Beau. Before he can act another one jumps at him but is stabbed by Alice's tail, who then chops its head off with her hatchet. The family gets into formation as more sentinels surround them.
