The sizzle of acid on ice filled her with dread. Despite the sudden surge of fear that threatened to encroach on her mind, Crim remained seated, and perfectly silent. She steadied her panicked breath and stole a quick glance back towards Vespa. Noticing that he was awake, she slowly pointed towards a nearby crevice in the wall that lead down into the deeper parts of the cavern. “Go. Hide.” She mouthed noiselessly, and returned her attention to the Infected bugs. She cautiously rose to her feet, nail at the ready. Careful to not make any sudden movements, she stood as still as she could, not taking her eyes off the hoppers. “I’ll cover you. Go.” As the wall melted away, she pulled the hood of her cloak over her head, and her mask over her face. From where she was positioned, she blocked the hoppers' line of sight, giving Vespa a few paltry moments to make a run for the crevice.
