Re: Episode 8-8: Oakley
Bandanna already pulled up over his nose, Sky Dog grabbed those blankets that flew towards him and wound the sheet-strip around his arm before running-vaulting-standing downstairs ready for Daniel to chain buckets to. "People here! We have brought the sand from above!" he called to those in the main room.
Anyone responding would get a sand bucket and/or a heaped blanket to throw over the flames.
Meanwhile Korpi rose up from Quantrill's head like a blown cinder as he turned and breathed fire at her. The lantern fell, abandoned, as heat washed up from below.
"KA!"
"AA!" The cry torn from Sky Dog's throat was hoarse and startled as he flinched back, hitting the side of the stairs.
Away...
Singed in the sear of flame, the sparks trailing from her feathers, Korpi banked a sharp turn out of the winch setting into the night. Cool air greeted her; hitting the roof the bird slid down into the gutter. Consciousness faded with the heat.
The big, ugly knife scrabbled against the wood of the stairs as Sky Dog pushed away and loped into the bar room, frantic.
