Cipher got up immediately and ran in their direction, but she tripped on her feet and fell again.
'You can barely walk let alone run, how are you planning on getting to them?' Zeus laughed. 'Just give up!' He knew he got to her because her movements slowed.
'I can't just do nothing!' She struggled to stand as the flaming Sidekicks came to watch Zeus for her as she requested.
'Cipher!' Kido yelled.
She finally got back up on her feet and leaned against the wall for support. 'I have to do something, and help him!'
'You damn heroes are all the same!' Zeus yelled at her. 'You can't stop him! If he gets a hold of your boyfriend it's over!'
'That's the thing, Zeus.' Onima, 'Phantom Arrow is visually impaired. He wears contacts.'
'Are you serious?' Zeus grumbled.
'Yes, your boss requires direct eye contact, right? Nothing to obstruct it at all? If someone is wearing contacts, glasses, or anything like that his quirk won't work. Right?' Onima said.
'Yeah...'
'Well, there you have it.'
'Onima! Kido! Focus!' Endeavor yelled coming up behind them the Burnin. 'Burnin, you'll be more discrete and you're faster than me. Go with Cipher and help her.'
'Right, yes sir!' She yelled and followed Cipher.
Endeavor called to them, 'We'll make sure Zeus won't get away! And make sure no one can follow you!'
Onima helped Zeus sit down, 'That should be easier on your body.'

'Burnin, make a hole.' Cipher said. She really couldn't waste any more energy.
Burnin took a chunk of her hair out and threw it on the solid shadow floor. It quickly disappeared and they fell through. Burnin floated before she hit the ground and caught Cipher so she wouldn't have to use energy.
And there they found Phantom Arrow protecting Kai on his last legs. Once Chronos recovered from his shock and y'know, regained consciousness, he was able to get out his gun and help Poltergeist.
The bullets put holes in him, he had been pierced multiple times by shadowy spikes. He was bleeding out and tired. He was out of breath, but he refused to give up on Kai.
'More players this late into the game?' Terugo mumbled. 'That's so unfair.'
Cipher broke away from Burnin and summoned a knife. She ran at Terugo screaming, 'Son of a bitch!'
'Shield!' Terugo squeaked, covering his face.
Poltergeist wrapped the shadows around Cipher's arms and legs and used them to lift her into the air. It was much harder to use his power with the lights on, but he'd do anything to protect his boss. Even if he didn't want to.
Chronos sighed, pulling his mask down, 'This is gonna be a journey.'
