He's too close to fall back in time, and her claws catch him across the collar, red-hot. Omega staggers, snarling in pain before he can catch it -- but Blue is already collapsing, and any pain after that is thrown completely aside.
Omega sinks quickly to her side, but this time he doesn't touch, once again hovering in helpless frustration because he can't do anything at all. He keeps a hand on the door, another within reach of Blue, without contact, his eyes wide and sharp with a new surge of fear. She's going to hurt herself -- what's happening to her?
Footsteps thunder outside the door, and Omega feels someone catch the doorknob, smells the fear in Owen and Dr. Gwen on the other side. "Blue!" Owen calls, but before he can get the door open Omega roughly shoves it back.
"Stop," he growls in fierce warning. No matter how much it stings to admit it, if Blue is least likely to attack anyone, it's Owen, but right now Blue isn't thinking straight. She might claw one of her humans open without even realizing it, and that is a horror she would never come back from. "Just wait."
