Thought so... Alyssa would calmly inhale a breath as her suspicions were confirmed. Although she knew Ramious could not ‘see’ her, his consciousness should still be able to hear her. She should be able to break through. The elf would correct her posture, baby blues locking on their raging tiefling. “Rami.” Her voice was firm. Then her eyes began to cloud over white, completely void of all colour. “Drop it.” She’d command.
Wis DC 14 and will use Portent: 13 to have him fail if necessary.
(Are we still in initiative? I don’t want to act out of turn if Leon does have something in mind. But Alyssa has been preparing for this.)
He then casts misty step and moves away from Ramious 30 feet. "Give him some room to calm down..." Leon calls to the others. He would position himself near the door they came in by, hoping to get everyone out and close them to leave Ramious to calm down on his own.
Bernard's go wide in surprise as Ramious continues to go wild. When Alyssa commands him to drop the axe he looks at it quick and sees what her intion is. He urges his bugs out to grab the axe and has them pull it toward the doorway that he is quickly moving too.
Bugs mage hand to take the axe. Believe it only gets to move 30 feet in a round so move it the door 30 feet.
Need precious axe so I can kill more enemies!!! Must crush all enemies around me!!! Ramious rushes forward, grabbing the axe from the icky bugs and swinging it around in a flourish. (I assume taking the axe from a mage hand doesn’t require a strength check but uses up my action. Let me know otherwise.)
Turn done.

About taking the axe from the hand - no objections, it's not a contest. But "turn done"... You be the judge: page 190 in the Player's Handbook (PHB):
Here are a few examples of the sorts of thing you can do in tandem with your movement and action:
[...]
draw or sheathe a sword
pick up a dropped axe
The axe was just hanging in the air and Ramious took it. Feels more like "free interaction with an object" and Leon was exactly 30ft in that direction...
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
If you're saying I can run over, grab the axe away from the spectral hand AND attack with it, then I will (must). I guess I just figured grabbing an axe away from a flying spectral hand, was a bit more of an action than just picking up a thing off the ground, and though it didn't require a 'test' would at least use my action. But, if I can attack, I'm afraid I'm not sure who is closest to me, so let me know, and I'll attack that person.
If Ramious is able to grab axe and attack, he will choose the closest target to attack with the axe: Attack: 13 Damage: 14

(I think Ramious can attack too - even if the Mage hand for taking the weapon)
Clearly lost in his rage Ramious jumped after the axe and wrestled it back from the bugs. He even tried to hit - them or Leon, happening to be now outside the room as well - hard to tell, but the crashing blow went amiss, leaving a mark on the wall.
Now Ramious was outside the room in the short corridor you came from, on the other side of the open double door. Leon was there too and had to decide if he wants to return to others inside the cat room.
If Ramious is out, and everyone else is in the room, then Leon closes the door and braces against it. “Probably going to need some help here...” He calls to the others.
That was exactly the case, and when Leon slammed the double doors and leaned his back against it - to join him in that attempts to keep doors shut - was practically an instinctive move.
Ramious found himself in the corridor reunited with his favorite weapon but with no visible living targets to use it on.
The cat-room did not change: the altar, the calendar, three additional sets of doors. The only difference - statues that were standing before now were laying on the floor looking less dangerous.
Ramious turns around, and slams his fist on the door.....but slowly things come into focus and, as if seeing the world again for the first time, he glances around....he glances at the blood on the axe blade...not from any enemy, but from his ally Leon. He throws it to the ground in horror and falls to his knees....rubbing his face. He rubs his hands on his pants....and looks on....seemingly afraid to make any noise, but then he says, rather weakly, to the closed doors...."Guys? I'm....I'm sorry....I'm ok now....guys? Guys?"

Leon waits a beat, then cracks open the door. "Yourself again?" He asks as he peers through. When he sees that Ramious is not going to attack he will open the door more fully.
Ramious, sitting on the floor looks up at Leon, "Are you ok? I'm...I'm sorry, I wasn't myself....I think it's the damned axe! I think it's cursed or something, and it took a hold of me. Well, I swear, I'm done with the thing....I'm leaving it here." He stands up, picks up the axe, and walks past Leon back into the room with the others.

Bernard shakes his head. "Well, pyramid tombs, undead, curses seem likely. Though, we don't know what the extend it. Could be we need the item broken or destroyed to end the curse. So, I say take it with. Beats having to run around a maze to find it again if we truly do need it to break the curse."

Leon takes a mighty hit from Ramious's axe.
He then casts misty step and moves away from Ramious 30 feet. "Give him some room to calm down..." Leon calls to the others. He would position himself near the door they came in by, hoping to get everyone out and close them to leave Ramious to calm down on his own.
(To be clear - Ramious is 15ft away from the door you came in)

Ramious, practically frothing at the mouth drops the axe. Unfortunately that makes him look even more enraged!!!

Bugs mage hand to take the axe. Believe it only gets to move 30 feet in a round so move it the door 30 feet.
To the door would be 15ft but yes, 30 is a limit.
Ramious! Everyone is around and accessible - Alyssa and Bernard are near by, Leon is by the door (may be on the other side of a threshold).
