Riding to the Rescue (aren't we supposed to have white horses for this?)
The rescue team stopped just inside the doors of the Vatican for a quick last-second pow-wow, and to make sure that everyone knew their jobs and places on this team. A note was also made that if anyone was going to be f*$%#ing stupid, they should let everyone else know so they could be tied up and left behind as bug-bait. This was not the time to be pulling shit, not with over a half-dozen people captured and (hopefully just) one dead.
The general plan was that they'd all follow Jaime, since his scarab could track down Paco and Robin, and hope like hell the others were with them and that they didn't run into too many bugs on the way. There was wiggle room in the plan for as much running and screaming and shooting as necessary, but the end result was dead bugs and rescued crew members so they could all go back to trying to figure out how to get home.
Last chance to stay behind and fight the good fight in an enclosed space.

"Guys, go on ahead without me." He said, before flying towards the bugs and the blue centaur,

She then turned around, her bow ready and firing at the bugs.
"I got your back!" She yelled to Danny.

"Yeah, that whole running off by yourself thing? Not a great idea. You'll get caught too. And seeing as there's no guarantee you'll be taken to the same place as your brother or be alive when you get there, and I'm the guy with the sensors, I suggest you stay with me, instead of doing something stupid."

What is with getting guns pointed at my head? Did Ted Kord keep almost getting caught in ironic cave-ins when he was alive?
At most, the bullet would knock him unconscious, but he couldn't afford that right now.
"Unless you've got some kind of psychic link, I'm still the way you'll find him fastest. Put. The gun. Down. Wait five seconds for them to help that weird blue guy--who can probably help us fight our way there--and then we'll keep going."

"We need to move!"

< My apologies, > he thought-spoke to his rescuers, including the ones that had stayed back. < I suggest crippling them rather than attempting to kill them, as the latter takes far more effort to manage. >
He'd seen a roach survive having its heart stopped (by tiny aliens. Very tiny, very obnoxious aliens). Chopping their heads off wouldn't kill them (not until they starved to death, at any rate), but at least a lack of mouth meant that they couldn't try to bite him. Or any of the others.
FWAP! FWAP! FWAP! Several roaches sreee'd their distress as limbs and antenna fell away from them, severed by Ax's tail.

Look at what happened to Hudson.
This guy was going to hate him for this, but he couldn't let him run off and get himself killed. He'd deal with it when he woke up.
Scarab, my right hand, but keep it discreet. Population Suppression.
"I'm really sorry about this," he said quietly, and it seemed like maybe he was apologizing for holding him up, but he wasn't.
His movements with the suit were as fast as the insects'. One hand swept up to knock the gun out of his face, as the other hand moved to Murphy's face to vorp him with a glowing blue field of energy that would shut down his nervous system.

But this was not happy fun-time mocking Danny Phantom.
This wasn't even slightly irritated but still relatively calm Danny Phantom.
This was "I am going to BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF YOU!" Danny Phantom, and he proceeded to illustrate said fact by punching straight through one the the bugs heads.

"Working on the disabling part. If we can pin enough of them we can get going."
She added to Jaime, "Good job, but that just reduced our numbers, and he's got to be carried along. What can be done with him?"

"Let...me...GO!" Suddenly, a beam of cryogenic power shot from Danny's eyes, freezing the bug that had him pinned. He chuckled, and began firing icy blasts of energy at the insectoids, freezing every one that he hit in place.

Not that he was complaining.
< I am not entirely certain how effective your weapon is against them, > he noted to Kate as he waded through the fight, limbs littering in his wake. < It might be prudent for you to fall back at this time. >

They probably didn't scurry far, though.
Jaime stooped and picked up Murphy, throwing him over his shoulder in a fireman's carry.
"Robin and Paco are on the move. That's good, right? This way!"
