"No!" I screamed, watching him fall victim to my flames again. I burned ever hotter, anger and remorse flowing through me, fueling the fire. The suit melted off, falling to the ground in a puddle. I stood, a human inferno, helpless. I could not help him. It was my fault. The door swung open behind me, fire extinguishers blasting the flames in the room. The foam engulfed me, sending torrents of pain through my body. I screamed as I was extinguished, every bit of my life force being sucked from me. I collapsed to the ground, drifting into a world of nothingness.
"Sandra?" A voice called. "Sandy, my love are you there?"
"Patrick?! Where are you?!"
"Right here," he called, drawing my attention,"I'm here." His body was completely burnt. He was standing in a room of fire, being singed from every angle. He held out his hand for me. I reached out to him. He fell to the floor.
"I will always love you." He said as the fires consumed him.
