[The kids run ahead with Catra, and Sieghart sees the people inside the church from a distance. The muscles in his legs tighten as he runs through the horrific possibilities in his frenetic mind. Maya pulls away from Elesis and that's when he breaks into a sprint, ignoring the crunch he feels in his leg, to pull everyone back from the terrible trap.]
No! Don'tā
[Elesis, his treasured granddaughter who's strengthened her heart for the sake of their family's duty, would never show her distress so nakedly.
"We have people we want to save too."
The blinding flash of light stops Sieghart in his tracks, his shout drowned out by the explosion. He can't see, but he can hear themāthe myriad glass and rubble that fall in front of himāand all he can think about is whether or not they might've missed and spared the kids before he's crushed into oblivion.]
[this is one of those times fast it's good Catra is half conscious. she doesn't see Scorpia (her friend, someone she had wronged, someone to whom she needed to apologize) or Yamato (the only one with a level head in this whole damn place) or the bombs. she doesn't register what is happening, not even when the flash of white light crowds her hazy vision and the explosion engulfs them all]
[the only thing she can think as the lights of her life are flicked off for a second time is a confused ???!!?!! because. . . well. she really has no idea what happened, here!!]
