One Against The Grain
I exited the Host Graveyard, leaving the exhausted lizard behind and almost immediately, my senses were assaulted by the loud buzzing noises of numerous wasps. I sped to the end of the tunnel to see the state of things and was met with a devastating scene.
The Hive that was once so organised, now resembled a disintegrated building.
On my left where there should have been a tunnel leading to the Host Chambers was a gaping hole of nothingness. Where structure should have been, there was nothing - like a massive tornado had swept through, taking the entire floor with it.
I looked down at the rest of the Hive or what was left of it, that had collapsed below. And there, amongst the rubble, an intense battle raged.
In the midst of the madness, I sensed the familiar presence of the scary wasp, fighting through hordes of wasps to reach the Hive Queen who stayed at the back.
