While Kamina beat at the flames with his cape, Mitch made sure that the rest of the flames anywhere near the tattooed Asgardian followed the same fate as those flames doused by the water. The effort was draining a lot of energy out of the teenager, but he wasn't about to give up (especially with Kamina around). With relief Mitch noticed that he could now see the horses through the smoke, so he knew that they were close.
Somewhere behind them, Mitch thought he could hear the girls Eileen and Tohru coaxing out the rest of the horses. He couldn't look back to check right then as something that had to have been part of the roof of the barn dropped right in front of his face.
The redhead fervently hoped that they had a little bit more time before the barn collasped on them.
