Watson's pov

I take off my detective coat. I run towards tom. He's ready for me to punch him or something of the sort but instead I slide between his legs and underneath him. He quickly turns around and is met with a punch to the face. He swings his fist at me but I dodge and knee him in the stomach. He pushes me hard, making me fall to the floor.

Tom: You sure move around a lot. You're speedy

I get up.

Watson: I kind of have to be.

He swings his fist at me again. I catch it but am met with his other fist to my cheek. I manage not to fall over and I uppercut him. He stumbles a bit but knees me in the stomach. I fall to my knees. He kicks me directly in the face, causing my nose to bleed.

Tom: It's over. You lost.

Watson: It's not over until I say it's over.

I say, out of breath. It's getting harder to breathe. The smoke from the fire is getting worse. I get up.

Tom: Just stay down!

Watson: Only if you knock me out cold.

I grab his shirt and headbutt him as hard as I can. He goes down. He's not getting back up. I expected more then that. I sit on the floor, panting as I struggle to get air.

Watson: This is it for me. I'm sorry Gura. I have to leave you behind.

Gura: I'm hydrodynamic

Watson: Yeah but you need floaties

I giggle

Gura: Hey!

I smile at the memories. I'll miss you. I never got the chance to say what I wanted to tell you, so badly. I smile as tears run down my face. A piece of paper falls out of Tom's pocket. I pick it up and look at it. It has an escape route in case the elevator isn't working. Maybe it's not hopeless. I go over to the wall. I knock on it. It's actually pretty thin. I ram into it. Come on break! I continue ramming into it until it breaks and I go through it.

That hurt my shoulder. I can make it. The fire and smoke out here is a lot worse than in there though. I cough as I make my way through the hallway. I need to find the way to his office. I'm almost to his office when an explosion happens in the room I'm in front of. The door to that room blasts off and crushes me. I collapse to the floor.

That broke some bones for sure. I crawl on the floor until I reach his office. I go inside shut the door. I look at the paper again. If I tear off this wallpaper then there should be a door leading to a staircase. I do as the paper says and surely enough, there's a door. I open it and go inside. That's a long staircase.

There's smoke in this room as well. I need to hurry. I run up the staircase. It hurts but I fight through the pain. I end up slipping and falling down some of the stairs but manage to catch myself on the railing. I struggle to get up but manage to do so. I eventually make it to the top. There's a hatch. I try to open it but it won't budge. If I remember correctly, the building collapsed earlier. There's probably rubble on top of it. I bang on the hatch hoping someone will hear.

Watson: Help someone help! I'm here! Someone please!

I can't breathe. It feels like my life is about to end when suddenly the hatch opens and I stumble out. I look around. I'm outside now. Someone cleared the rubble off the hatch and opened it. I look to my left and see Gura looking at me with a relieved but concerned look on her face. She's wearing my hat. I give her a small smile and collapse on the floor. Everything goes black.

Gura's pov

Gura: Ame!!

I rush towards her. She passed out. I shake her.

Gura: Please don't die!

The medics rush towards her and put her on a stretcher. They put her in an ambulance and take her away. They drive in the direction of the nearest hospital.

Kiara: It looks like that's all. You saw the condition Amelia was in. I'm going to end the stream now, I did what I needed too. That organization is done for. See ya.

She ends the stream.

Calli: I can't believe she actually did it. She made it out.

Gura: We shouldn't celebrate. She looked like she was very injured.

I rush towards the nearest hospital on foot.

Pikamee's pov

I wake up and I'm in a hospital bed. My fellow Voms members are sitting next to me.

Pikamee: Guys?

Hikasa: Pikamee!

She hugs me

Monoe: Thank goodness, You're awake!

Pikamee: Where am I?

Monoe: You're in the hospital. You passed out because of your injuries and being malnourished.

Pikamee: At least we're free. I'm gonna be able to leave here right?

Hikasa: Yeah. You'll be fine.

Pikamee: That's a relief. Is there any news on Watson?

Monoe: Not that we know of. What happened down there anyway?

Pikamee: A lot. I managed to get Ina to realize she was being manipulated. She's good now.

Monoe: Well that's good.

A doctor walks in.

Doctor: You two need to leave, we have a patient coming in here who's in critical condition.

Hikasa: Yes ma'am.

They get up.

Hikasa: We'll see you later.

Pikamee: Okay, see ya.

They walk out of the room. A few moments pass before doctors rush in here with someone on a stretcher. It's hard to see. It's only when they place the person on the bed next to me when I see that it's Watson. Holy crap she looks bad.

Doctor: We need to do surgery now or she won't make it! Get the tools and everything ready!

They close the curtain in between the beds. I'm in shock. How is she even still alive?!
