Sharpe, huh? She's gonna pay that place a visit then. She needs to figure out why the heck they're so advanced AND apparently doing business with the empire.
Eliott pockets the manual, and if there's nothing else useful laying around, starts to head back into her vent.
Savaak kicks and/or shoves the techs in various directions as she nears to keep them from the door, but when they get the call out to get out while they can, she starts heading in that direction.
Still blinding people, but Aaron seems to have Rian in check, so she lets the light around him drop once the shadow forms in place.
Aaron starts flickering darkness in front of Rian's eyes, to not only blind him but keep him disorientated with the constant switching between light and dark!
That's also when he remembers the gun in his hand, loaded with electroshock bullets. He takes aim and starts unloading right into Rian's chest! He's slowly backing towards the stairs as per Silas' instructions, but he's not going to just turn and leave without keeping the others covered.
Silas stops at the doorway to the stairs, changing the pain pistol to his non dominant hand as his right reaches for a smoke disc to throw at Rian's face. That should give anyone reasonable amount of time to get moving, because he's not waiting forever.
That's all Josh could say as the orb around his fist faded from view (and existence, for that matter). He wasn't entirely sure what he expected to happen, trying to punch the juggernaut in the chest like that, but what DID happen seemed right. His barriers may have been hard and with no give, but there's only so much force you can put behind one with a punch.
Yep. Time to back up now.
Fortunately Leif seemed to agree. Josh heard her calling for everybody to get to the roof and it looked like time to skedaddle. Josh put up a barrier between himself in Rian in case the guy tried to cheap-shot him, then booked it for the stairs up after Leif.
Well, that was all Savaak needed. She leaves the poor techs to fumble about as they had been before, making her way towards the way they came while keeping an eye on the others as Rian gets even more distractions thrown at him - literally, in this case.
Eliott's ahead of the rest of the team, and she quickly makes her way to the roof! It seems unoccupied for the moment, but she can see some of the larger machines beginning to turn towards the building.
Two electroshock rounds strike Rian, but the smoke quickly hides him from view.
"You all hide like children! Fight me like a man!"
Another concrete block sails out of the smoke, striking the wall next to the staircase and narrowly missing Silas.
Aaron squeezes off a few more shots in the direction the concrete block and Rian's voice came from, and once the rest of the team moves to the stairs he does too, bringing up the rear as they head upstairs in case they're pursued!

If Josh wasn't running as fast as his body could possibly manage after Leif, well, he is now! Barring a catastrophe, he's making it to the roof and not dying a horrible death.

Aaron is booking it for the roof, making sure the others are on their way up too! He's not going to let Leif, Mike, Savaak, Josh, etc. get left behind!
Behind them all, he's dumping his power reserves into the thickest wall of darkness he can make and having it follow several paces behind them, to ward off or slow down any pursuit. It'll also mean that between that and the smoke that might or might not still be around, hopefully Rian can't actually aim that concrete he keeps tearing out of the floor!
Since he's right behind the rest of the group, he's probably making it to the roof with them!
