Dyan's light brown eyes seemed to flare with blazing fire, a raging inferno sweeping wildly in all directions, slowing the beasts' advance.
Because of Dyan's sudden and powerful attack, the beasts appeared to hesitate for a moment. That brief pause was enough for Louis and the others to make their escape.
By then, Lilac's people had found a large truck. The survivors scrambled up into the back as if driven mad by fear. A steady hand grasped Louis and gently pulled he up onto the truck bed. When Louis looked back, Lilac's beautiful face was suddenly close before his eyes.
Following the momentum, Lilac drew Louis closer, letting Louis lean against him before swiftly giving the order, "Drive, quickly!"
The truck roared to life. Louis struggled slightly and said softly, "Dyan is still there."
Lilac's firm voice rang out, "They're in the very center of the beast horde. We can only save those we're able to save."
