Leo would try helping his friends anyway even if they are more than capable of handling themselves, but he's currently struggling against the kedan that caught him and he's never been that much of a fighter. He considers just setting himself on fire, but where there is sewage there is methane and hydrogen sulfide and--well, the short version of it is that things might go ka-boom!
And then the burst of sewage water hits him, causing him to stagger back. The kedan's grip on him loosens, enough for him to wriggle an arm free. He juts out an elbow at the kedan's chest.
It works; the kedan releases him long enough for him to pull out a fisherman's net from his toolbelt. Without much thought he flings it at the incoming kedans; it manages to tangle around them and hold them back but Leo knows it's only a temporary fix.
He's also underestimated exactly how many the kedans are. Tip: A lot. And the net doesn't even capture all of them.
He curses in Spanish, and thanks to the auto-translation of the turtle whoever is listening has likely heard new and creative ways of insulting everyone's mother. He then follows it up with a, "Run! Get out of here!" to Percy and Annabeth.
