Isa covered her mouth, though it didn't keep her from coughing. The smoke was so thick her eyes watered. She ran, simply trying to keep up with Sher as they sped through the burning building. That old man was insane! Truly insane! Who else would set a building ablaze at the risk of other people's lives?? Well, maybe less crazy people, but regardless that old coot wanted their heads!<br/><br/>Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a clearing in the blazing inferno. "This way!" She shouted, throwing herself into a coughing fit AND towards the open door, pulling Sher behind her.<br/><br/>At last, fresh air. Ida was on her hands and knees, gasping for breath not far from the fire, but far enough away that they wouldn't catch alight. Suddenly, her eyes widened and her head lifted at the sound of insane laughter, and all at once she was plowed into by Aros. He began to beat her with his fists, as his staff was gone, cursing her for being a horrible thrall and for making him lose his stick. Ida cried out, covering her face as he simply sat on her lower torso, striking her over and over. Tears started to flow, and Isa could only whimper as he hit her.
