When the first yellowjacket flies back hours later without new minions, you are severely disappointed. You gave him one job, and he failed. He needs a new start. Scooping up a large quantity of royal jelly from the wall, you fly over and stuff it in his mouth. He shrieks in shock as his legs are snapped to the side of his body and melt into his thorax and abdomen. His head is sucked into his abdomen and all his yellow and black hair falls out. His antenna retracts and his wings fold up and melt into his body. His chitin gets soft and turns white. Then he drops to the floor, writhing as he gets fatter and fatter and he becomes a long tube shape. The giant grub on the floor writhes. Humming in disapproval, you pick him up in your legs and shove him into a honey hole. He'll be ready to work again in a few days.
The second yellowjacket, however, more than completes his job. Coming back with so much honeycomb he's only two inches off the ground, you hum in approval and instruct him to plaster it to the walls and make more honey holes. You expect a great number of arrivals soon...
A few days later, a sound of roaring laughter awakes you from your slumber. Hissing in annoyance, you fly silently to the mouth of your cave and peer out. A light is flickering in the distance. Interested, you fly as quietly as you can over to the light and land high up in a tree. Looking down, you see a group of six college students around a roaring fire, laughing, smoking marijuana, and drinking beer.
You fly quickly back to the hive and awake the other yellowjacket. A cracking noise from behind you let's you know the other one has grown up again. You three fly over to the campsite. After several minutes of hissing at each other, you decide to take the stealthy approach. You send one off into a dark hollow in the woods nearby and one to the nearby outhouse.
The first one makes loud hissing noises. "What was that?" a girl next to the fire said. "Here, let's go check it out..." says one of the guys, tagging his friend. They head off into the hollow, not knowing you and your minion lie in wait. You wait until they spend several minutes looking for the source when you fly out from the treetops and divebomb them with your stingers.
The two guy's heads pop into almost featureless yellowjacket heads with antenna, yellow-and black chitin, and huge eyes. Hissing in terror, not mentally changed yet, they run around the hollow, wondering what has happened to them. You rain down on them with more stings as their asses swell into huge thoraxes and their legs and arms pop into long, spindly legs, causing them to fall to the forest floor. Two more, on either side, pop out. You sting them more, their torsos swelling, becoming almost round, flesh being swept up in a tidal wave of yellow and black chitin. Huge wings pop from their backs and stinger prick from the end of their thoraxes and they stop thrashing. They grow huge and their clothes rip off of them. Flying up to you, they hover in the air, awaiting orders.
One of the girls goes to the outhouse, where your other minion lies in wait. He hides in a shadow on the wall as she sits down. He stings her suddenly on the small of her back and her rear grows into a huge thorax. She is thrown back by the sudden weight and the minion flies over and rains her body with stings. Her head pops, her torso swells, her legs become long and spindly, two more come from her sides, and wings and a stinger prick out of her shoulders and rear respectively. The now fifth yellowjacket you have flies out of the outhouse silently with the other one.
You five together attack the remaining three students head on with your stingers, and soon the campsite is full of figures writhing on the forest floor, hissing as they complete their transformations into huge yellowjackets. Your seven minions and you fly back to the hive and start work immediately.
