Locust was awoken by the loud noises of her neighborhood buzzing around. It was early morning and It was Locust’s turn to do morning guard. She lived in a large gourd shaped hut that was made from a dried gourd that grew on the tree’s floor. Locust climbed out of the hole and looked up at the tree. So many houses were on the branches. She yawned and grabbed her taser spear. She climbed out of her house and up the side of it. She saw Pondskipper sleeping in his canopy, it has a tarp roof over it in case it would rain. She climbed down to his canopy and used the non-electric end of her spear to poke him in the face. “Wake up, we got morning guard today” Locust said. Pondskipper groaned and opened his eyes. He was not wearing his goggles and his eyes were black slits. “Wha?” He said. “We have morning guard today” Locust said. Pondskipper put on his goggles and blinked a few times. “Oh come on let me sleep” he groaned. “No, we got work to do!” Locust said poking him in the face. “Okay okay! I’m awake jeez!” Pondskipper said standing up. “I’ll be there in a second, let me just put on my wings” he said. Locust flew up to the heart of the tree. That’s where the royal family was. She landed on the balcony and stood in place. “Now to wait for the others, and then receive orders on what the queen wants us to do with the bugs” Locust said. Pondskipper soon flew up and landed next to her. “I’m awake, happy now?” He asked. “Yeah” locust said
