Seeing an array of things happening at once, Xerc only tried a little to understand what was happening. Spider-like bugs had flew in through the only door that they could continue on through and had begun to attack everyone. Taking note of this, he began to make an attempt at chewing and clawing the bugs. He kept his body moving at all times so it wouldn't be as easy to hit, but whenever he tried to swipe a paw at them, they manahed to dodge with ease. The onoy thing that seemed to occasionally work was eating them, yet sometimes they would attack the inside of his mouth if they were still alive. 

He noted that Daniel had made a fire dome to protect those within, so after barking at a few bugs and trying to eat them whole, he ran into the dome and frowned. But then, something caught his eye. The small creatures had noticed that their attempt at going straight in for the kill wasn't working. So they had made a formation and were risking to go straight through the fire. Hearing what Sasha said about a buzzsaw, he whimpered. Daniel had now made it so it blocked off only the area between the swarm and them, then saying to get to the door while he would hold them off. "Attempting something like that would end with your death, don't be so stupid as to suggest that option ever again!" He practically barked at Daniel, "We deal with this as a team, not as selfish idiots." Although he made this statement, he had no idea what to do. The area got darker around him as the fire lit up some of the room and he began to growl.
