"I can't fucking believe it," Devlin said. "Our drone beat this thing. Our little robot beat this twenty-foot monster. Corey, I hold in my hand ten grand that was defeated by our SeaBot."

"Yes. And that ten grand is going to our damned drone," Corey groaned.

"Cor, let's enjoy this."

"ENJOY?! Dev, look at SeaBot! All that damage. Some of its parts were knocked off. Ooh, there's even a crack in the side. Thing of the water damage."

"We waterproofed the insides."

"Waterproof doesn't mean water immunity! It's resistant at best!" Corey sighed. "At least we have some new data."

"Yeah. SeaBot had trouble with a twenty-foot snake, but there are bound to be monsters that would eat this guy as a midday snack in the ocean. Hell, no way would this guy be able to handle a Great White Shark."

"So, it's agreed. We're upgrading the drone's combat capabilities."

"Yeah. Definitely have to up the voltage."

Corey hummed. "I was thinking maybe replace the voltage with something else."

"Like what? Toxins?"

"That could work. Though, good ol' fashioned bullets wouldn't hurt."

"Harpoons for a drone? Not sure that would do a lot of damage. We'll just have to think of the upgrades when we get back to the lab."

"No arguments here. But I do have one argument. Concerning Kaa here."

"Ooh, Jungle Book. Nice. But don't worry, Cor. The truck can handle it."

"Dev, it's just you and me."

". . . Oooh. . . . Well, I'm sure we can handle it. We're guys."

"You complain about feeling like a weak wuss every day."

". . . You've got muscle for the both of us?"

"Man, fuck you. . . Hey, do you feel like we're being watched?"

"Cor, we're in the Florida Everglades. There's probably hundreds of things watching-" Devlin was interrupted when he and Corey looked behind them, a Burmese Python looking right at them.

". . . Shit," the two said in perfect unison.
