Prologue

The flames were covering everything. The hallway was filled with light from the small fire that had burst into a blaze from the oxygen tanks. She ran down the hall hoping to get away from the room that had gone up, but she was hopelessly lost.

She looked back down the dark corridor that was slowly filling with light. She slammed her shoulder onto the door in front of her and tried in vain to break the locked door down. She fell into darkness and landed at someone’s feet.

In a panic, she tried to rise and move out of the room but found that the fire had caught up with her. She looked back at the figure and saw glowing blue eyes staring back at her. She scrambled backward away from the figure that was now partially illuminated by the flames. It was a man, and he was speaking to her, but she couldn’t hear him due to the roar of the flames. Pain registered in her mind as a warm liquid trickled down her face.

Heat consumed her, and blackness engulfed her vision.
