Part 2/8:
The central character, Dr. Hubs, is introduced as an entomologist who uncovers a startling species of ant exhibiting behaviors akin to human characteristics: meetings, communication, and even decision-making. This newfound intelligence amongst the insects initiates a transformation; a green ant enters a colony and poisons the queen, sowing chaos and leading to violent internal conflicts among the colonies. As the narrative unfolds, the black ants begin to turn predatory, attacking their natural enemies, thus creating an unsettling rise in their population.
