Ale'con, Six, Sharphand? Where are you?" Still nothing. I ran towards the swamp, the muggy water pooling around my feet, causing my progress to slow. Eventually, I was struggling to move. Finally reaching a bit of dry land, I leaped into a tree and began to leap from tree to tree. Luckily, they were close together, and they also provided me with a height advantage, allowing me to see above the treeline. I finally spotted the area where the swamp started to end. Jumping down, i headed back into the forest, now knowing exactly where I was. I ran forwards and was at the H- HOLY FUCKIN SHIT WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED? The entire Hive was gone. Literally. Not a piece of the structure remained. I howled with horror and pelted forward. I called out again and again for Mother and Ale'con, Six, Jaken, Gillian, Sharphand, anyone. abruptly I froze. I realized what had happened. The yautja had put a bomb in the Hive. It must have been while we were fighting. I moaned in horror. The sudden pain that coursed though me made me realize, I had no Hive. Mother was dead. I was alone. I swayed, letting my head tip back and a howling roar of pure pain rip through the air. Arching my back, I hissed and slowly turned in a circle. Whining, I paced frantically. I lashed my tail, becoming more and more frantic. No one was here, no one was alive, I was alone, I had no Hive, I was going crazy, my wor- SLAP! A stinging slap to the face snapped me out of it. I sprawled onto my side, hissing. Looking up, I saw a sight for sore eyes. Er, echolocation sight.
"Six!" I screeched. I lunged and warpped him in a hug. He purred and nuzzled me. I pulled back.
"What happened?" I asked. Six sighed and shook his head.
"After the ship exploded, I was knocked out for a bit. Ale'con and Sharphand are still alive. They searched for you, but couldn't find you. Ale'con and Sharphand are waiting." he explained. I nodded and we bounded away from the ruins of our home. Six led me to a small clearing. Ale'con and Sharphand were pacing the other side of the clearing. I shot towards them and slammed into them, knocking them down. We wrestled like younglings in the nursery. I ended up on the bottom of course. Sharphand and Ale'con were in a pile on top of me. Snarling, I withered, trying to get free. Sharphand snickered.
"I don't think so!" he hissed. I growled and lunged, sinking my teeth into his arm. Sharphand yowled and pulled back, allowing me to leap free. I snapped at them, arching my back. Ale'con snorted.
"Where were you? We looked everywhere for you!" he exclaimed. I bared my teeth.
"Looking for you instead." replied Ale'con. We traded stories. Ale'con stood up. Sighing, he looked around. We watched him.
"Shouldn't we stay and look for more survivors?" questioned Six. Ale'con shook his head, dreadlocks swinging.
"We cant stay any longer. We need to leave.
