Night of Thousand Screams 2

Damian felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder as dirt and wood rained down on him. His head throbbed, along with many other parts of his body specially his stomach. He had just broken through three floors, so the pain was the least he could expect. The biggest problem, however, was the fire raging all around him.

He also heard a faint hissing sound, as if someone was dousing the flames with water somewhere in the burning building.

'Sena...? Paul...? Kyle...? Where are they...? Are they even alive...?'

Damian could barely open his eyes to look around. All he could see was fire and broken wood. Fortunately, two of his mana strings were still attached to the iron golem, which he guessed was nearby. He immediately ordered it to stand up. The hulking iron figure took its time pushing through the rubble, but at last, Damian saw a large shape in the distance, standing up with the fire in the background.
