As the drones began their approach towards the downed figure of Jaiden, the ground around his fallen covered in a thin pool of red. Their sensors read that he still held some faint life signs, and while there was another target nearby, he had already felled one of their number already, not to mention that Jaiden seemed completely defenseless, and as such, a much better target.

However, when they got closer, they would notice a strange frequency resonating in the air around the body. Oonly Ashley and Boxcar would be able to hear it, due to their animalistic senses, but everyone in the lodge would feel it, a strange rumbling drone that caused their teeth and insides to vibrate in a very disconcerting way. Not only that, but strange electrical signatures would begin to flash within the body, much stronger than what should be possibly generated within a human body, especially around the cranial area. While the machines hesitated slightly at the sight of these disturbances, their single-minded purpose to kill and the continued in action of Jaiden embolden the automatons to go forth with their assault.

The moment that one of them laid a single robotic claw with crimson ichor that surrounded their prey, however, the menacing frequency immediately ceased. The relative silence was short-lived, however, as it was soon replaced by a violent sort of squelching noise as the pool around Jaiden erupted into a trio of strange, biological growths that surged forward to latch on to the three drones. For two of the drones, the growths simply smothered them, coiling around them and squeezing against their metal frames until they gave way with a final screech of tearing metal. One of the the drones, however, was merely restrained and crippled, it's pointed legs torn apart and it's chassis becoming infested with a disgusting mass of flesh and sinew that pried it's metallic shell open to reveal the electronic innards within. From this biological mass, several thin strands of nerve tissue were formed, spreading their root like tendrils into the machine, sparks of reddish electrical energy issuing forth every time they made contact with the drones components.

While this happened, Jaiden rose from the ground, the blood on the floor making it's way slowly but surely off the ground and up his legs, once again joining the rest of his body. Even what had soaked into his clothes fused itself back into the vessel, leaving his clothes as clean as they had been before, not counting the several holes that were currently in his shirt.  With somewhat glazed over eyes, he grabbed his head, unable to clearly understand what happened to him. He'd been sleeping, only to be soon awoken and attacked by something, then thrown over the railing to the ground. He remembered being extremely angry, both with himself and with whatever had attacked, and then, he was standing unsure of what had even happened in the time between. It was just a strange blur.
