[ If anything, the electricity combined with his dislocated arm only seem to enrage Cryon, and Gamora is still mentally counting down the seconds until they can really get at this piece of scum. Of course, she's also rapidly become the target of Cryon's Dust-fueled rage, and she barely has time to duck before he swings at her again with his unbroken arm.
She hits the ground, cradling Groot protectively in one hand, until Peter's voice draws her attention away from their raging enemy. ]
Take him!
[ She calls right back before she chucks Groot across the field to Peter (and, for all that it may be irresponsible to throw a child, Groot actually giggles as he soars through the air).
Fortunately, with both hands free, she has the right amount of time to react when Cryon swings again for her, and she reaches up to catch the blow, using his own momentum to throw him as far as she can manage. He lands on his damaged shoulder with a howl of pain, but he's noticeably slower getting to his feet this time. ]
