[staggering out from here (http://community.livejournal.com/damned/641256.html). Planning movement to another location after monster tag.]
It was taking all the concentration he had to just put one foot in front of the other without falling over, so Wally didn't notice what was going on out in the hallway immediately. And then the creature screamed and he jerked back, shuddering violently and uncontrollably from the drug, and half leaned, half collapsed against the wall.
"That'snotgood..." Some kind of monster on the ceiling, though it was hard to make out around the flailing tentacles filling the room. Other people were fighting it, including what seemed to be a kid, and normally Wally wouldn't have wasted an instant leaping in to help. But now?
Now he wasn't going to be much help to anyone. He hated it, but this was one fight he couldn't join in. He was lucky his body hadn't shaken itself to bits as it was, but - and another, strong tremor shook him for a moment - that wasn't from lack of trying.
