Inside the house Angelica could feel Daemon was up and moving. The emotions coming from her brother were more powerful than anything she’d ever felt before. She tried to block out as much as she could but he was so close to falling into a primal rage she felt her own anger growing. Sara was near panic at the thought of being trapped in a burning building. Her emotions were adding to Daemon’s and were pushing Angelica to the limit of what she could endure. So she did the only thing she could think of to reduce the turmoil: She punched Sara.
Sara crashed to the floor six feet from where she’d been standing and lay where she’d landed, unmoving; she looked like a discarded rag doll. Angelica was both amazed and shocked at how hard she’d hit Sara. She hurried over to check on her. Sara’s jaw was broken and she was bleeding from her nose and mouth, but she was still alive. Angelica quickly set Sara’s jaw and focused all her energy and concentration on healing her, to the point of blocking out everything else. Sara would wake up sore but her jaw would be fully healed. When Angelica finished, she realized she’d gained some control over the emotional turmoil surrounding her. She was very tired from the strain of using that much energy, but at least now she could think clearly, if a little slower than normal.
Angelica could feel Daemon in the woods on the opposite side of the house from the barn. He was almost on top of the other two, so it should be safe enough for her to get to the barn. She picked up Sara’s limp body and carried her to the kitchen door. She lay Sara next to the door and carefully opened it, scanning as best she could for any indication of attackers. After a few seconds of scanning Angelica picked Sara back up and carried her to the barn.
