"AHHHHHHHHH!" Brent exclaimed, and he ran into something hard and pretty much tumbled back onto the floor. PERFECT. He knew it was too good to be true that he could just cannon ball back through the portal and be safe and sound. He tried to scramble off the floor before anyone caught sight of him falling back into the unknown.

Right where he had been before...

...with the shadowy, snarling whatever-it-was. "HELPPPPPPPP!" he yelled, joining Ace in the fight to save their lives. The others were coming, so he stopped banging and stepped back for a bit. He DID have a small amount of dignity left in him to try and play it cool. Something must have happened just then, because the very same portal that had been blocked a minute ago was the same portal Leon was now sticking his arm through. There was NO WAY Brent was wasting any time.

"Don't have to ask me twice," he said, and then he pushed himself through the portal and hopefully back to safety.
