"Oh, fuck," says Grif. And then he's hanging onto Sam, Brainy and Robbie are in trouble, and everything has crossed a grand new threshold of horrible.
And Kid Q's in his ear, because of course.
Got it, he sends back. Can he do this? He can do this, because he has to do this. The seconds he spends getting boosted away by Sam are all the time he has to psych himself up for it, he hopes it's enough.
Then Wash kills Rich's powers.
"Be right back," Grif tells Sam, and he's off.
Grif isn't as fast as he wants to be. He's been running a lot, he's never been good for stamina, and there's a nasty stitch working its way through his right side. Luckily, though, not as fast as he wants to be is still really damn fast. He slides in around the alien tentacles and starts tearing the smaller ones away from Rich's airway, digging in his nails for extra grip. He makes up for lack of bodily strength with raw pissedness.
