(I have an idea to drive TANDEM further into the dome)
The two cyborgs had been planted in place for ten minutes, give or take, before the door behind them opened once more. The two turned in unison to see two of Dr. Faust's droids entering the dome. The droids were barley humanoid, standing on two legs with a thin, sturdy frame and triangular heads. Their eyes glowed a piercing red as they turned to observe TANDEM. The transaction between the two was completely silent, but words were not needed to understand the happenings.
The droids, also given a mission to survive, targeted TANDEM as a threat. Threats were not optimal for survival. The two droids slipped into a subtle attack mode, attempting to make a formation around the two cyborgs before they were the wiser. TANDEM, however, was smarter than that. They recognized the droids' attempt and silently agreed that fleeing was better than fighting.
The cyborgs were fast. They darted off into the thick woods of the dome, leaving the menacing droids behind. The machines didn't give chase, but it was clear that, should they cross paths again, it would not be pleasant. TANDEM drove deeper into the unfamiliar territory, running side by side and keeping an eye out for threats.
T1: This place is very large. We should hide so that the droids will not see us.
T2: We are not alone here. Infrared is picking up heat signatures.
T1: Enemies?
T2: Most likely so. Avoid at all costs.
Hiding was starting to sound like a good idea.
