There were people talking around her and she thought she understood a few words: 'mat', 'safe', 'help' and 'cop'. As she lay on her right side, Livvy wondered if she was resting on a mat. Being assured she was safe and someone was helping were positive things, if her mind was generating sentences which fit those words correctly.
With the word 'cop', she thought someone might have called the police. She thought the fire department would be a better idea, as a person had been throwing flames around like weapons. Maybe he had used a flamethrower, though she didn't remember seeing any equipment. Was she even recalling the encounter properly?
Drifting in and out as her body struggled to deal with her injuries, she whispered through cracked lips, “D-did we get the b-bastard?”
