[And floor it she does!! But only when she's sure that Shoyo is secured by Egg, who she also increases her grip on. It's not recipro burst, but she does put some power into her boosters to get them as far out into the cavern as possible. Behind her, she can hear the slush sounds the scarabs each plinking into the murk and screeching loudly...until they stop. Not all of them fall in, but those that do don't resurface, and the ones that don't...back off. It seems they've finally met their end, unable to go forward for their next meal.
Eventually, the skittering seems to go back from whence it came, as the bugs decide it's just not worth it to even wait. The shiny surface of whatever liquid surface that is isn't one they have any desire to navigate, so they slowly retreat, and the cave grows quiet other than the sound of Ochako's boosters now softly thrumming as the three float in the air.]
We...w-we lost them... Good job, both of you!! A-Are you all okay?
