He nodded. "Of course he was. And I have no doubt they are planning to circle around to the entrance and ambush us there. There is a door that leads south from the corridor that we have to pass through, and we have to take a longer route back around. Easy enough to beat us there.<br/><br/>Besides, they appear plant-like, and need nutrients. They either have to bring soil in as they drain it if they are plants, or use some sort of intake to keep moving. Honestly, that was why I looked slightly surprised to see you intact and unharmed when I got back. I half expected them to have attacked while I was gone."<br/><br/>He paused in the room that led in all four directions in the center of the floor. "Let them set up and settle. Ambushes work fine unless the target knows about it."<br/><br/>After a couple minutes of waiting, he nodded to the door heading west, and let her go through, his pulse gun out and ready. He suspected the ambush would be in the first, main room of the floor.
