I had important matters to take care of. [ It's muttered as he looks back at Nen for a brief second before the sand around them explodes to life with scorpions of all sizes and colors. Knives reaction isn't nearly as surprised as it should be, considering they're currently surrounded, but he does put his arm out in front of Nen in what can be assumed is a protective gesture. And then his cloak starts to melt away, forming into those characteristic silver, threaded, tendrils. His expression is just a glare as he looks back at Nen. ]
Don't get in the way. [ Knives will say as a glint of silver lashes through the air and slices one of those scorpions clean in half, the tendril already retracting and keying up to attack again. He'll do this to the other ones surrounding them, eliminating them easily enough, but another wave of scorpions will just rise up again some even lashing out with their barbed tails but Knives disposes of them easily enough. They're not so much a threat as a nuisance, really.
They must've stepped onto a nest or something. Annoying. Knives is never in a good mood perse but this only tanks his mood further. ] We're going to have to move.

[ Hopefully Nen can run in the sand. ]
