He'd expected a response, sure. But he hadn't expected a response quite this quickly. Luckily - even stood with Victor amid the smoking ruins with the crackling flames and useless buzzing of fire alarms - he manages to pick up that faint sonic boom on the horizon as something - or someone - hurtles towards them.

'Move' is lost upon impact as a bright golden bullet of a metahuman smashes into him, sending them both crashing through the wall. It doesn't hurt but it does annoy him; he grips his attacker tight, grabbing her by the shoulders and dragging her with him as he rolls with the impact. The few remaining walls crumble around them as they tumble, with Apollo doing all he can to pull back a flaming, fiery fist and bring it smashing down on his attacker's head.
