She scoops him up effortlessly, even as he feels like he should resist. He can't defend her like this, but boy, he's feeling really off his game. He speaks hurriedly but weakly:]
We gotta get away, Garnet...they...I think they took Dad...
[Just then they launch another electrical net at the two of them, and Steven can't get it together enough to block it this time.]
