I was numb with fear. Part of me watched the battle with detached analytical fascination, but most of me just wanted to be somewhere else. I quickly backed up until my back was against the closed double doors, then floated upward until my head bumped the stone ceiling. From up here I could see that victory was only a matter of moments away.
My ears perked up when I heard a voice call from somewhere in the stony halls: "Help! Is anyone out there? I'm locked in a room! Help me! Someone?"
It was Lynn's voice.
