The Spine wasn't the only one from the plane to awaken completely disoriented and trapped inside a heavy wooden crate--though at least the eldest of the Walter automatons had managed to land right-side up in hers--yet even with her newly upgraded chassis and improved internal workings, the rattling turbulence and too sudden drop through the air was enough to completely screw up the woman's bearings and send her processors spinning.
But once the the robot recognized the sound of horrific screams and sheer panic taking place outside of her private space, Rabbit was busting through the crate that was almost hilariously marked HANDLE DELICATELY and out into the bright sun and sand of the beach.
...A beach. A beach Now how in the heck did they end up on a beach?! Hadn't they been flying inland towards the east coast?
Well, that sort of thought would have to wait until later, when the chaos had ended and her family was all confirmed safe.
Green and blue glowing photoreceptors were scanning the appalling view momentarily before Rabbit was sprinting into action without a care for her own safety, old battlefield tactics and strategies cycling through the automaton's mind as she reached one of the many unmoving lumps of human, kneeling down before hefting up the body, head clicking upwards just in time to catch the flash of silver crashing through the sand...
"Spine!" //Spine!// A shout through both the smoke-filled air and over their WiFi link. "Watch out! That d-don't look so safe!" Not with a fire blazing and all of that gasoline needed to fuel the plane in the first place.
