After their encounter with the other empowered beings, Keiji and his ant colony were on high alert. They continued their journey through the unknown world, wary of any potential threats. But they also knew that they couldn't survive on their own forever. They needed allies.
As they explored their surroundings, Keiji and his ants stumbled upon a group of people with powers similar to their own. Unlike the other empowered beings they had encountered before, this group was friendly and welcoming. They saw Keiji and his ants as allies rather than enemies.
Keiji and his ants were initially hesitant, but after some discussion, they decided to form an alliance with the group. Together, they could share knowledge and resources, and be stronger against any potential threats.
However, not everyone was happy about this new alliance. There were still those who saw Keiji and his ants as a threat, and they weren't afraid to show it. As tensions rose between the two groups, Keiji realized that forming allies also meant making enemies.
The situation escalated into a dangerous conflict, and Keiji and his ants found themselves caught in the middle. With their new allies by their side, they fought for their survival against those who wished them harm.
In the end, the battle was won, but the scars left behind were deep. Keiji and his ants learned that in this new world, forming alliances was not always easy, and sometimes it came at a steep cost. But they also knew that it was necessary if they were to survive and thrive in this strange new world.
