Cough cough

You wrinkle your nose and stagger backwards swatting at the cloud of dust while coughing from the fumes. Your eyes sting and you can feel the dust deep in your lungs. What...

"What did.... You... Do?" You try to get the words out but you feel so woozy. Whatever she blew in your face is starting to make you feel quite dizzy. You start staggering back and forth on weakening legs as Esmeralda watches you with an evil smile. You fight to keep your eyes open but you feel so weak. Finally you give in and let your eyes close sinking to the floor in a small heap. You feel yourself sinking into unconsciousness at her feet. The last thing you hear is her cruel laughter echoing in your ears.
