[ without thinking, cassian pulls up the earth like a shield, and the creature slams into it, bouncing backward. he pulls up the wall higher, then breaks off the top half, sending the rock through the air to capsize over the beetle. a five foot fly swatter. he rushes forward, peering over the makeshift barrier to make sure he crushed it. ]
[ the pincers are the only thing visible from underneath the beetle's new tombstone. one down, jyn!! get moving! ]
