No, no, no. Not today. Not Caroline. Not after everything else.
Poe is on his feet without the recollection of standing. He catches Caroline as she starts to go down, half-falling with her, landing hard on one knee. He has to get up. He has to get back up, get her inside, get someone to take a look at her--
What the hell happened?
Hole in her shoulder--
Those things still coming, still coming, Poe raises his blaster and his aim goes wild, scoring the leading monster's chest, then its arm, then its neighbor.
"Cass, help me!" He hates his own desperation, but he can't get up under Caroline's weight. He's not as strong as she is at the best of times, and this is not the best of times.
