Griffin growled at Argus when the other man told him what to do. So much for being the senior officer. Not that he could blame the other man for taking charge. Argus was going to have to take the lead since he couldn't. He flinched as Richard started to build up his magic. He should run as fast as he could to the entrance and call for backup but he was reluctant to leave the people he had been put in charge of. 

He moved slowly watching as long as he could despite the fact that Richard's power was weakening. The group seemed to be working together better now. Either they had worked out the kinks or Argus was a better leader than he was. Griffin tended to think it was the later. While he was older than most of the people in the group he had no experience leading. This was suppose to help him build those skills. But he was starting to see that he might not possess them to build.

Once he couldn't see the group Griffin used his speed to rush to the surface where he could get a signal and call for containment.
