Katie's entire body was rigid with so many emotions. Regret, shock, sadness, relief... She slowly backed away from the man, hands closed into tight fists at her sides. She didn't know why he was letting her go. He was one of those who wanted to take her down because she was evil, wasn't he? But she knew that she had to take this chance, while security were still bewildered by what was going on in their heads.

"Thank you," she whispered, turning her back - and running. Katie brandished fire at some guards who hadn't been affected by the singing outside, and hurried off into the dark night. She didn't know why she'd been let go by him, but hell - that was her luck today. As soon as she got a couple of blocks away, she darted into an alley and slid down against the wall. Her heart was beating in her throat, and she felt like she was going to be sick. All of those things that she'd done, all of the people she'd killed... Hiding her face in her hands, she couldn't even cry anymore.
