Arcade stops throwing the mess out of the way to reach for the table, instead. The sound of that rattling is turning swiftly into battering, now, and they've got it clear enough (maybe). He waits for the count, and then lifts - the thing weighs a ton, but between the two of them, it feels movable enough.
Which is a good thing, because that rattling has come back, sounding distinctly different now. It has a lower, sinister note - and looking back toward the doors as they make their staggering approach, table in tow, shows exactly why. The doors have been pried open just as far as the bar blocking them allows, and one of that thing's tentacles has slithered through, tapping at the bar, now, trying to dislodge it.
