When the door slid open, a man was on the other side of the door, but he was different from a normal person simply because half his body was made up of metallic moving parts. I think with a name like Metallurg, I assumed that they would be more bug-like.
"Why do you test my patience!"
Irellia kicked at the android, but it skipped back nimbly and avoided her kick while jetting out childish giggles. I saw Irellia's fist tighten, so I walked up to her and put my hand on her shoulder lightly. Irellia whipped around, and I gave her my winning smile but was rewarded with a punch in the solar plexus that I never saw coming. What is with these violent women?!
Mikota and Tama weighed with me as the Metallurgs led the rest of them down another shaft. I was able to catch my breath, and the three of us ran forward to catch up with them, but they were gone. We ran ahead, but we ended up in a circular room with tunnels leading in every direction. I tried to listen for them, but it was no use.
