The little metal cylinder flies through the air with little fanfare...straight though the shade. Harmlessly bouncing off a rock and giving off a few sparks as it hits the ground.
Surge immediately fumbles through his gear simultaneously trying to get ready to protect himself and ready another grenade, and only succeeds in accidentally deploying the shield into his face and dropping the bag full of grenades. Panicking and shouting as a meager handful of grenades tumble out onto the ground, maybe 3 in total.
(no fun to simply deus ex machina the whole fight at the climax)
The Remnant... Or, well, you think it's still the Remnant, cackles.

It takes a giant swing at the formation.
Surge's holy hand grenade of antioch had apparently proven to be a total flop. And as he sprung away into a defensive position anticipating horrific injuries, Danu raises her hand.
The remnant's blade strikes something solid emitting a shower of sparks. Yet the object that had been struck wasn't visible- at least initially. It soon becomes visible, glowing a brilliant violet as the wavelength of light shifts into the visible range, revealing the object to be some sort of pole or rail.
Falling through the visible light spectrum, it becomes each color in turn before becoming a deep red, and then fading away to allow the blade to swing once more. But Danu had robbed the swing of momentum and thus power, making it much easier for her friends to defend against it.
Not waiting for that defense to happen, she lunges in to catch the blades again on her shield in the hopes of creating an opening for a counterattack.
"I'm afraid I have a slight problem with letting my friends die needlessly. You're going to have to come up with a better reason than that if you mean to get past me."
Her own blade was too short to strike the remnant while holding his blades with her shield, but perhaps while he was thus occupied someone else could move in to inflict a devastating blow.
