Ashton did as he was bid. It wasn't like he had anything else he could do. It was either get out or die. And he didn't exactly want to do that. So he gathered up everyone and rushed out the door. He wasn't far, and the others hadn't heard him squawk as he was wrapped up in invisible bonds. The dark figure who approached he recognized -- she was scary in broad daylight, in the dim light of the porch and the knowledge of what lay inside made him squeak. This was going to end badly.
She asked him a question, and it took two or three moments for Ashton to comprehend what she asked. And who she was asking about. He would have pointed, but his arms were wrapped up in the invisible bonds. "Inside. Burning the place to the ground with the monsters inside." The words were but a soft whisper. Though after he answered her question, he gave her a sweet smile -- his own fear pushing him to free himself even as he started the siren's singsong in his voice. "Let me go."
