Seth tries to focus properly on Daniel's words. No, no, he can't take back that power, Daniel needs it. He's got a hole in his stomach, for God's sake!

Slowly, very slowly, dots start to connect in Seth's mind. If Daniel's making him take back the power, then things must be bad for Seth. And... And if he can't move his legs... He's pretty sure his healing power can't fix that. It can't repair something that wouldn't fix on its own, it just speeds up the process. Something that won't fix on its own...

It won't be okay, he realises suddenly, and his throat closes up for a moment, and he has to swallow hard.

What good is a healing power for him now? What good is a phasing power, for that matter? But if Daniel can get out, he could use the power. He needs all the help he can get, really. Better than it dies with Seth.

He takes a shuddering breath and...

This time it's full-blown agonising torture that rips through him. His power dealing mostly tends to just amplify what he's already feeling, and what he's feeling right now is bad, but he's blinded by the light and he can feel the power leaving him, stabbing needles in his hand, so it's working. His entire body - or at least what he can still move of it - is all tensed up, his neck arching back as he grits his teeth.

And then it's over and he slumps, numb and exhausted.
