"Calm down Anthony," Karen said as she began to tie up her honey blonde hair to keep it from her eyes in critical moments.  "Acting all nervous and crazy like this will just get you killed.  And I'm not planning on going down with you.  Got that?"  Her blue eyes looked menacingly at him and then fell completely devoid of all emotion.  Totally empty.  She meant it, she wasn't about to put herself on the line just to save him if he couldn't handle the pressure.  When she was certain he had got the message she suddenly smiled and said, "We won't die here, and we'll do what we came to do, like always."
