"Snow?!"

....

"Shadow?!"

Rose held an arm to her mouth as she struggled to crawl to safety. She was sweating so hard her hair plastered itself to her face to her face. She took deep breathes hanging on to every last bit of the few but precious amounts oxygen that entered her searing lungs.

By the looks of it, she was upstairs, and Snow and Shadow were nowhere in sight.

Where they okay? ...D-did Sage already get a hold of them?

She never really liked Snow much but... I mean she didn't want her to die.

There was a sharp Bzzt, coming from across the corridor. It was similar to the sound of television static. Her head turned in that direction to find a bright light beaming from across the hall.

Rose bit her lip, now wasn't' the time to become distracted, she had to find Snow and Shadow and get out of the building asap! She turned to run, however another sound caught her in her tracks.

"So you're one of them, hmm?"

It's voice was smooth like melted chocolate and words seemed to roll off of their tongue like a warm honey lacquered waterfall.

Ever so slowly, Rose turned around almost mesmerized by the intoxicating sound.

A man with hair just as red as her's stared down at her, he wore a bird shaped mask and was clad in a crisp suit

A man with hair just as red as her's stared down at her, he wore a bird shaped mask and was clad in a crisp suit. He stood with his arms crossed, his expensive looking shoes tapping lightly on the ground. He looked...almost amused.

"Who...are you?" Rose questioned.

"Dove, I don't think that's the most prevalent problem at hand."

He was right, what she needed to do was get out of the burning building. Then worry about the strange glowing man.

He extended a hand out to help her up, she reached to grab it, only to be met by air. His hand glitched out, causing the man to flash a charming smile.

"Ah I forgot, I'm a hologram." He laughed sheepishly and ran his fingers through his ruby hair.

"Anyway, come on, let's get you out of here."
