[Snapping her attention to where the light is shining, Ochako grits her teeth. She's too slow to do an arc at the speed they're going without risking a crash, or slowing down and letting those horrible insects get within jumping distance of them. It's not going to be fun, what she has to do, but it's the best and fasted way to pivot in the air right now. The whiplash will be worth it, surely, because they'll still be alive.]
I see it!! Both of you, hang onto me now, and do not let me go!
[Because after jerking her arm out, one of the wired grappling hooks shoots from Ochako's wrist guard and strikes the inner wall of the opening. Sticking in hard, the wire goes taut as it swiftly yanks the three in that direction suddenly, Ochako killing the boosters for just that second of inertia so they could change direction in a fraction of an instant. She kicks them in again when they're throttling toward the new space, so they can make up that same speed.
Many of the scarabs pass them by, thankfully, but still more arc after them, still in hot pursuit, their hideous clicking mandibles and skittering legs making horrible noises in the echoey halls.]
