Paradise Violated

"Figure out that machine, Dobbs!" you shout and go help the rest of your team. The creature's tentacles are surprisingly long and are still doing a number on your team, its fortunate that being stuck in the doorway makes it a lot easier to fight, you'd hate to be surrounded by more than one of these things. After a combined effort of bullets, lasers, and plasma, the creature finally dies. Now you've got new problems, first of all the creature's dead body is completely blocking the doorway, but worse, all the sound of battle only attracted more of its kind.

You're temporarily safe for now, as you know the creatures can't get through the doorway, let alone with a corpse of one their own blocking it. They won't go away though. In fact it sounds like they've started eating their dead buddy; eventually they'll be able to make enough of an opening to attack again.

Meanwhile Dobbs seems to have activated something. A wall slides open revealing a small line of silver robots. Their metallic glean is almost blinding even in this low lighting. Judging by their build and the wicked looking weapons they're carrying, they were designed for battle, it also looks like they've never been used. They stand silent awaiting instructions.
