[ even from his distance, approaching the entrance to the mine, he can see her fear - and her anger. she's afraid of being caught, of being hurt, of dying. of him. but she's angry, too. angry about being caught and hurt and maybe getting killed, all because of him. it's an endless cycle at this point.
surprisingly, she gets out before he can get to her. that gets on his nerves, sets the fire going in his blood - as if he's ever not pissed off - and evan picks up the pace until he sees her half-sprint and half-stagger toward the other wing. where there's a window, or at least a break in the wall, that he never bothered boarding back up.
