Getting tossed is never a pleasant experience, especially not by an extremity. The joint of the cybernetic leg to actual bone and tendon screams in protest as Initiate takes hold of him, chucking him like a rag doll into Jet and sending them both sprawling.
Still mobile, Albert immediately hauls himself off of Jet, working on instinct of this happening before. It has, too, though usually he's on the receiving end of Jet being plucked from the sky and sent sailing into him, but the principle's the same; get up, keep fighting. They're not out of danger yet.
He glances at Jet for half a second to make sure he's still in one piece, but instead finds himself behind his husband, the blond making himself a wall between, ready to be knocked down when Initiate bowls into them both. They have his attention, what they need now is to wear him down, and standing their ground isn't going to do that. They have to split up again, keep Initiate's attention divided between both threats until he's too worn out to follow them both. It's a tactic they'd used before, with more of their cyborg brethren, but it should work here too; at least Initiate can't shoot lightning or accelerate.
"Jet, like 0010!" Pained, running mostly on adrenaline and trying hard to ignore the stress he's putting on an already overworked body, Albert holds his sidearm at the ready and goes darting off in a different direction from where he assumes Jet will go running, waiting until he sees who Initiate will follow before lining up another shot.
