“What are you doing to me, you plague of a girl?” he whispered.
“If I’m a plague, then you should keep your distance, unless you plan on being destroyed.” The weapons still in her grasp, she shoved against his chest.

I am shouting now, determined he will not miss a word of it, "And if we burn, you burn with us!”
