Epic of Bee

The girls were all behind me, and Tag and Sig were directly in front of me. Miku and Rixie had gone back to the ship; She could activate the Royal Fighter Drone and The GraviBee Shield and bring the ship over the platform to get everyone inside faster.

"Keep moving; we are almost to the entrance. John went back to let Ryan know that you are heading back to the ship. Once you are safe, then we will start the assault, but we need to get you back to the ship so they can stop holding the air vent. The Trolls are also forming a perimeter with Leah and the other guards, but I have to go help," Will told me in a rush as he appeared from smoke and then disappeared just as fast after he was done speaking.

Fen was running ahead, but I couldn't tell his footsteps from the rest, and there was also a massive turtle following us. That would be Terrance, and he was jogging with his giant turtle shell wagon that was being pushed by three Trolls.

The entrance to the cave was, and I was filled with a sense of thrill from the Cat Dragons as we got closer.

'TO BATTLE!' Thanos cried in my mind as he leaped into the air and started to fly.

'Will protect you, my Queen,' Tigra said in my mind as she rubbed up against my neck and then jumped off.

"Oh no, you two don't!" I said, but they were both flying out of my grasp as I reached for them as I ran.

'Leave them; I will stay with you for now. We need to fight to get stronger like all dragons and do not underestimate us; we have been waiting for a long time to be free. Inside a Dragon's eggs, time moves dramatically slower, and as long as we are kept together, our minds can fully mature before hatching,' Atom told me as he remained perched on my shoulder.

So I am just supposed to trust that the fist-sized flying Cats would be able to take down a full-size Predator that is bigger than me? They are wearing cloaks! I think this is a bad idea.

'Trust in us, and let us show we're worth,' was all Atom said.

We burst outside, and now I had to pay attention. Everyone was gathered and ready in the center, and the guards were doing an excellent job of keeping everyone calm and orderly.

Both Thanos and Tigra circled above me to keep watch, and I turned to see that the ship was almost here. There were little bits of black stuff on it, but only two out of the three Royal Fighter Drones were circling the ship.

[Hive Sync] Complete!

'Ashia! There is trouble with one… no, it's completely offline; I will be within range in less than a minute. Something is happening over there; the drop when to go check it out, and now it's offline,' Miku suddenly said in my head.

Before I could react, Will appeared from the mist-covered in blood.

"She is here; you need to be on that ship now!"

I looked past Will and up to the top of the mountain, and I could see some of the Raccoon Folk coming down. They were too far to tell who it was except for Ryan in his white robe that was not built for battle on a landscape; he was like a white light on the dark gray mountainside.

That wasn't what caught my attention.

It was the line of white robes that was coming over the ridge of the mountain. Like the ocean had just crashed into the other side of the massive soaring rock.

The Predators spilled over, but a massive one stood at the peak of the mountain holding the two large halves of the Royal Fighter Drone. That was the one that had attacked me, and I knew that she was staring down at me; this one could not be allowed to die or get away.

"Do not let her get away and try not to kill her. She is the only one that knows where the real Leader is!" I called out to the guards around me.

"YES, MY QUEEN!" They all thundered, giving me goosebumps as the Royal Flying Hive Fortress loomed closer.

'We are within Beem range! Bringing all noncombatants up!' Miku called in my head, and I confirmed it.

Then I was back on the ship, but I wasted no time.

"Girls with me, Riza, Joni, top floor," said and the girls all followed me wordlessly as we followed the girls through the Honey Gate.

I walked out onto the Bridge, and there were some worried faces, but no more than I expected. The Drone was a significant loss, but I was about to try and make up for it.

"Everyone, I want you to monitor the situation, and we need to get Ryan up here to help with coordinating. We are not losing people, so I want you all monitoring the situation, and I get Will and John to help relay Messages for now until I find a better way," I said as I went directly to my chair.

Once I was sat down, I pulled up the screens to monitor the Drone, and only the two were online. That stung, but that was what I got for not being prepared; hopefully, I could salvage the body, and maybe Gamble could figure out something with it.

I pulled up the Royal Drone in the hive shop first and almost choked on my tongue when I saw the Hive Points. One thousand three hundred and fifty-four points! That was crazy, so I dropped a bunch into the Royal Fighter Drones.

[Royal Hive Shop]

<Royal Attack Drones>30 (10 HP Per Drone)

<Royal Attack Drone Rank> 30 (HP cost= Rank)

<Royal Wife Limit> 4/8 (5 HP Per Wife)

<Royal Subject Limit> 143/200 (10 HP Per 50 Subjects)

<????>

<????>

<????>

I knew I would need more room in the future, so I quickly added three more slots while I had the tab open and then closed it.

Next, I quickly added three more drones, and when I opened the new Hex Skill tab. I scrolled down until I found the Royal Fighter Drone Tab and opened it to see a new menu.

[Royal Fighter Drone HexGrades]

TeslaBee[Royal Wife Controlled]- Drone becomes a close-range Lance Fighter with Lightning charged attacks.

CharBee[Royal Wife Controlled]- Drone becomes a close-range Brawler with Fire charged attacks.

HydroBee[Royal Wife Controlled]- Drone becomes a mid-range Whip Fighter with Water charged attacks.

TerraBee[Royal Wife Controlled]- Drone Become a long-range Sniper with Earth charged attacks.

I selected one of each of the types and then dropped it out of the menu.

"Girls, you have all got notifications. Find a seat, and I want every one of us to have 2 people relaying information, so we have good awareness out there. Remember what I said, everyone comes home tonight, so we can all laugh and sing together and get drunk! I won't accept anything less!" I said as I looked over everyone in the room with confidence, and the cheer back to me as I slipped into my Drone, QBee.
