Civilians involved in any form with interrogation was a very unpleasant and unwise choice, as a general rule. It was best not to let the civilians get too far from where they were now until they were ready to move on anyway. Still, letting the dome down was a necessity: eventually the fire and the enclosed area would start to do more harm to their charges than the immobilized shinobi could.
When she heard his shout (and saw the results of the nin closest to them) she immediately cast her glance over at the two she'd subdued on the other side of the clearing: in all likelihood, if they weren't already dead, they'd be gone before she could stop them. Two of the men she'd just subdued here had already poisoned themselves, and the third Sasuke already attended to. Ultimately she chose to sprint across to the last remaining ninja that Sasuke had paralyzed, summoning a small tendril of earth (wedged at the end) to force the nin's mouth open even before she reached there.
Admittedly, saving them wasn't crucial, as she and Sasuke had one nin under genjutsu each. As long as they maintained control of the men, their dream selves could bite down all they wanted, their body would do nothing. (Unless they managed to discover it was a genjutsu and then managed to break themselves out of it, of course--but hers at least should be too consumed with terror to form any such thoughts). That said...if this was a tactic they'd use...they couldn't just rely on the two they had, if it was avoidable.
If, in fact, it wasn't too late for the one she approached or Sasuke's, anyway. She wouldn't know for sure until she got there. She dropped to her knees as she reached the man, and quickly scanned him for any sign of poison. --She assumed that it would show by now if he'd gotten it in before she'd stopped him, anyway.
Rather than risk him finding some other way though (how, she didn't know, since she assumed the senbon would keep him paralyzed a while longer), she quickly wove another genjutsu, putting the man to sleep before he could choke himself on something. She frowned down at him (he...seemed to be fine...) and then turned her attention back to where Sasuke was. "Is he alive?"

His captive, not hers, obviously.
