Makoto tossed the extinguisher aside and coughed a few more times. "I won't leave someone who helps me. I should be thanking you for saving me. She brushed the burns on her throat with her fingertips. The adrenaline was fading away, and she grit her teeth as she retracted her hand from her neck. Her face and chest were only slightly burned, but they still hurt nonetheless.

Makoto looked at the Flame Skull, who was squirming around, trying to get up. She slowly approached him, grabbed him from whatever amount of hair that was left on his head, and pulled him close to her. She spoke loud enough so Hayate was the only one who could hear her voice."It looks like you've trashed his store." She looked up and smiled in the direction of the burning shop, laughing sadistically at the remains of the store. She returned her gaze to Hayate, still smiling. "You're a fool for thinking you could kill me while you set yourself on fire. You might've burned me, but look, I'm still breathing." She released him from her grip, stood up, and walked away from Hayate.

Makoto approached Jayden, and put her hand on his shoulder. I'll be fine. I have some first aid in my car. I can do something about that face of yours. You can come with me if you want." She dropped her hand from his shoulder, and walked away from the burning crafts store.
