Atton flung the broomstick aside and picked up the blaster, taking out an alien that had its designs on Cara's back. "Time to even the odds!"

Spoiler, she probably wasn't going to succeed.

No, Atton went like a lead balloon, every force of nature in their general area conspiring to suck him all the way in.

Bleep, he heard.

He stared up at an armada of spaceships, arranged in a weirdly gridlike pattern.

"What the--"

The doorway blinked out before Cara reached it, and her momentum carried her forwards until she hit the ground.

But that was okay because another doorway opened up beneath her.
