[Her eyes were stinging from the dry heat of the flames and her breath was nearly gone as she stumbled through the house. This was a nightmare, the worst kind of nightmare she could have if she dreamed at all. So dry there wasn't a drop of moisture left in the walls.]

Damn exit. It has to be around here somewhere!

[stares after him for a second before rushing after him.]

Hey! You're asking for death going in there!

I have to find them! [He's about to start running again.] I have to do my job and protect my master. Even if I can't win, I have to...I have to try.
