The queen decided to sharpen her claws cause she has not been able to sharpen them in years. She found it not right and told her children to do the same when the hive is completed. It also help save time while she waited.

Once I entered her premises, hearing the painful, ear piercing screech as she sharpens her claws, I said," Hello, my queen." She turned to me, stopped sharpening and smiled. "Welcome Austin or shall I say, zenith."

"Zenith? Is that my new name?"

She nods. "It's time to make you one of us, become one of my children and part of the hive." She brought in many kinds of eggs, each a different shape and size.

I get up and follow them.

After a few hours of "hiving" me they brought the egg. "Ready?" One of them asked. There was no real way to tell if they were male or female but this one had a deep hiss-like voice I guessed he was male. "Yes I'm ready." I replied. After that all I saw was darkness....
