Despite the situation, Francis makes an impressed sound at the shields, especially since projectiles can get out from the shields while still protecting those inside. Though, the bots are smart and he knows it's just a matter of time before they figure out how the shields work and before more than they can handle arrives.
As much as he wants to fight the hunks of metal, he leads them all to the relative safety of the underground of the giant Machine City. At first he just leads them a bit further in, through hidden doors and traps, everyone staying silent. Though, he's not about to lead strangers straight back to his people. Instead he leads them to a nearby room. Well, room is a generous description, but that's how everything is down here. This is, after all, what was once the sewage system of a human city, far below the city of metal now on the surface of the planet.
Francis turns towards the dog-lady, who seems to be the leader, and smiles his usually charming smile. The one who makes the few girls his age melt.

"Well, well, we don't get guests often. Actually, never. Judging by the state of your craft, I'm guessing it wasn't on purpose."

"I'm Barton, but people call me Hawkeye and I'm the leader of the Scavengers, the last humans of this planet. I'm guessing General isn't your name, my beautiful lady." Oh, yes, he can be smooth when he wants to.
