The colonist that Jack was ready to kill dropped the chain he was holding and that in turn caused the door to falter under the reduced power and began to drop slowly as the other three couldn't hold up up the massive chunk of steel.

Ryder was able to help, by putting a massive hand under it, but he couldn't lift it, only stop it as long as Varus was still in the other arm.

Several of the other colonists drew their weapons and returned the aim at Jack, easily outnumbering her seven to one. Course several did have gun, instead they had sharpened metal rods and welders, but a few did have small firearms. "Listen to your friend." One of them said. "We will be closing that door whether you're inside or not."
