The team members realized that something was off only a few seconds later as they saw the look on Max's face change.
"What's up boss?" Nico asked as she poked him in the side to get his attention.
"The Greater Energy Being here is closing the portals and kicking everything out, as you suspected, but she's not completely sure what to do with us. The cats are fond of the crab drones, but she's still got one track of her mind working on deciding what to do with us." Max explained.
"So, the getting kicked out to some random spot might be a very real concern?" One of the team members asked.
"I would say so. She recognizes that we're not a threat, but views us more on the level of unsafe cat toys, so I wouldn't expect much sympathy for our travel time." Max explained.
