It's happening, it's all happening, and Teddy can't remember being on higher alert. The shield should make him feel better- it seems to make everyone else feel better, including Billy, and he's grateful for that- but force-fields are something of a specialty of the Fantastic Four, which means they're probably not the biggest threat ever posed to a Super Skrull.

Which means if it finds him there, it won't just be Teddy, it won't even just be Billy, who suffers.

"Do you think they have water?" he asks, hearing himself, knowing he sounds shaken and kind of hollow, but thinking that's... fair. He also knows, without even having thought it through, that he's going to run, because Billy can't protect him and he sure can't protect Billy, except by not being anywhere near him.
