out about the fire...
Even so, he didn't mind the thought of risking himself for nothing as he ran towards the ladies room.
He would do anything to make sure she was safe!
However, he was so preoccupied with Cordy that as he reached the ladies' room, he never noticed a

things more suspicious.
John didn't hesitate, and snuck into the banquet hall while no one else was watching.
It seemed everyone had been evacuated; there was no one else in the hall, which was now fully ablaze
with plenty of objects falling from the ceiling.
The air was as scalding as it was smothering, but John didn't care and charged straight to the ladies
room.

was there.

His heart skipped a beat-he truly hoped n.ovëlx.o Cordy wasn't there!
