[Barry wasn't unaware of the turtle leviathan's cantankerous behavior. They, however, knew they couldn't deal with it. I mean, not to rag on them, but. Look at them. Look at their finger being nommed on. They're barely able to handle baby turtles that're snipping at and on them. Something something, lover not a fighter, yadda yadda. Others could handle the overgrown splinter situation, Barry hanged back on the fence. Just like they did when Sonic took down the Mirage Express.
... unfortunately, not getting themself involved is a bit tricky when those spines come crashing down like lawn darts onto the shore.]
WOAH-?!
[They leap up onto their feet, the sudden thuds of spines managing to dislodge their poor finger from the turtle's beak. Too bad they can't take a moment to breathe since, as luck would have it, the rest of the baby turtles were heading straight into the poisonous substance seeping out. Oh no. Oh no no no no no--!
Barry does the first thing they can think of - dive at the turtles and scoop them up in their arms. Sand's getting everywhere on their chic uniform, and the babies are adorably biting at and trying to escape from them.]
H-Hey! [Yelling at the direction the spines fell, unsure if their voice is loud enough to carry.] Be careful up there, there's babies down here!
