Thomas spun, dove, and weaved on his glider, dodging lasers as they came in while he shot back with Blizzard and Fire at the Cybug queen. A few did deflect off his shield, ricocheting into the ground or off into the sky, but for the most part he did a decent job of making sure he wasn't in a position where he would have gotten hit by a blast. He didn't have a shield most of the time after all, so better to act like it wasn't there. With the shots from Calhoun's gun added to it, tentacles began to fall away one by one, mostly those he aimed for though.

It was an eternity and yet not at all before Jake managed to smash his way through to the core on the things back, destroying the Cy-Bug Queen at last. Thomas was about ready to celebrate their victory, as the thing dropped lifelessly towards the ground, when another problem presented itself. Namely, the fact that Amaya and Vanellope were right underneath the thing. The Reflect shattered like paper under the weight of the thing, and though Amaya moved to get them to safety, it probably wouldn't be enough. Mentally cursing, Thomas prepared to dive in, to get them out of the way with his Glider before the giant body could impact.

Fortunately, he wouldn't have to, as in mid dive Amaya and Vanellope were swept away by a Corridor of Darkness, earning a resulting twinge from Thomas's dark wound, and appearing nearby, with Joshua. Now, Thomas was fine with the rescue itself. In fact, him starting out on this journey would have done the same thing. Swoop in, be the Big Damn Hero, get the girl, something like that. But now, he was a little angry, one could say. 

The Queen dead, Thomas flew over to join the ongoing conversation, batting away a few Cy-Bugs that came in to attack him. "Hey Joshua, how nice of you to join us. I trust you had a good rest while the rest of us were fighting to make sure this world wasn't devoured wholesale by an army of alien bugs.' He idly wondered if maybe that had been a bit too sarcastic, but at this point he didn't really care. Joshua was a big boy, he could handle it.
