Chloe wrapped her arms around Davis, willing him to stay focused. His words were soft and reassuring "They can't hurt me Chloe, I have you." She smiled sadly, yet her heart was aflame with all the feelings that she kept bolted inside.

She heard the windows crash and felt the heat rise as they set fire to the building. Chloe decided if they were to burn, they would burn together, but not today. They snuck through a secret tunnel in the basement and never looked back.
