Well, there went his idea of tossing the food. Which wasn't a good idea anyway, since his user body felt kind of starved, and he was pretty sure this guy would need some food here too soon.
Beck turned his head towards the stranger, curious as the sentence was suddenly cut off. He then glanced behind his shoulder, just in time to see the little rat-thing scurry up a wall, before jumping right towards their direction. He swung his hand out towards the thing, as if to swat it, but the creature latched onto his hand and sunk its teeth right in.
He yelped and flinched at the sudden pain, his grip on the stranger's waist growing a little weaker as he tried to fling the rat-thing away. And when it only sunk in its claws deeper, he let go completely, tearing it off and literally throwing it away.
By the time he was done, the little things were even closer yet.
"If you can get out of here, go!" Beck said, turning to the injured tribute. He wasn't exactly sure how or if he could hold these little things off, but it was a lot better than letting the both of them become a feast for the creatures. "I'll try to keep them away as best as I can."
