The spoils in the Cornucopia could make or break this for him, and he knows that. It's a risk, but he knows he's fast and he knows he could probably get in and get out before others.
He has a straight shot to the Cornucopia, and he doesn't hesitate at all. He grabs what he can. A bag, filled with something no doubt worth the risks, a vial that looks important. He even manages to grab a knife, and he knows that will be very, very helpful in the weeks to come.
And then he turns, and there's Karkat, in the way of him and and getting away from this bloodbath. He unfolds the knife with a fluid motion, but he doesn't strike just yet. He just grips his spoils close to his chest and charges. Hopefully he can dodge, but if he can't, he's been trained for this. Not this, exactly, not quite, but he can fight and defend himself and take down an attacker.
