She's terrified even so, doing her best to keep it out of her expression, drawn though it is. "I will be fine. We'll be in less trouble if you're fast and you're careful than if you stay here, you know that. It's that or I come with you." She'll chance it if she has to, but not knowing what to expect out there, she can only assume she'll be even more in the way where the fighting is, another thing for him to worry about.
