" FIREBALL "
" We gotta get to the boats guys " Mr Jimmy said. The group look around each other, silently nodding in understanding. Making there way to the door Caleb standing behind Emersion a comforting hand on her shoulder as he pushes her forward
The smoke was thick, flames engulfing the surface of the floor, hot air surrounded the group making their hair stick to their skin. Coughs and wheezes were heard, followed by the hissing of pipes. Fireballs exploding around the them.
" Come on " Andrea yelled to the group. Emersion clutched tightly onto Caleb's shirt, as her body started to slowly give out.
" They left us " Kutcha voiced. As the group stared down at the water watching a lifeboat float away to safety.
" Caleb " Emersion whispers. If Caleb wasn't already looking down at her he would of missed it.
" I'm really tired " Emersion's body flopped against his.
" HEY NO EMERSION, YOU OPEN YOUR EYES FOR ME OK " Caleb practically yelled in her face, shaking her head in his hands
" But I'm tired " Emersion slurred out, eyes opening slowly to stare up at his caramel pools. Emersion's once tan skin had turned a pale dull colour. He bright brown eyes had dimmed, and her body shivered, goosebumps travelling over her.
" I know sweetheart " He cooed " But look there" Caleb turned their bodies around and pointed to the emergency life raft that the group was working on " We just have to make it a couple more steps " pushing the hair sticking to her face away he cupped her cheeks" can you do that for me " he asked. Emersion only nodded her head, but if was enough for Caleb to keep her moving.
" Somebody got a knife, I need a knife "
Taking large step towards the raft. Mike whipped out a knife cutting the raft down " I got one. Watch out " " Come on pull it out "
Emersion slowly stepped forward with the help from Caleb tearing open the raft and watched in drop into the water. Looking around she lots sight of where Caleb went.
" Alright we got to go now, move people to the raft " Mr Jimmy yelled at the group. Making her way to the raft she was pushed to the side landing on the ground, blood pooling around her as the wound on her stomach gushed open. Looking up through her lashes, she could see the person responsible for pushing her, Kutcha as he climbed into the raft. Emersion's body became weak she couldn't push herself off the floor so she laid there in her own blood a coldness seeping through her.
" Emersion " Caleb yelled out as Mike pushed him onto the raft into safety. Caleb began to panic. Why did he move away from her, why didn't he stay with her. Snapping out of his gaze, he looked to Mike " MIKE, EMMY I CAN'T FIND HER " he screamed, pain erupting through his voice
Hearing his name Mike looked to Caleb, seeing his bloodshot eyes. Catching the last of his sentence a pained expression taking onto his face " I'll get her go " he yelled at him. A fireball blasted causing Mike to fall to the floor. Lifting his head and scanning his surrounding, he saw a body lying on the ground blood trickling around them " Shit " he cursed. Crawling over towards Emersion
" Hey kid "
" Mike " Emersion wheezed out " C ...cal eb, is hh e safe " she cried
Looking down at her, he nodded his head. Causing Emersion to smile, showcasing her blood-covered mouth. " Alright up we get ok " reaching down he placed his arms under her leg, picking her up bridal style, making a hissing noise come from Emersion.
Moving higher up the rig, Emersion forced her eyes open her mind focused on one person, Caleb. Emersion kept seeing flashes of his goofy face, his smile and the eyes she loved so much in front of her. She could survive this, she was going to see him again.
Mike and Emersion made their way to the helicopter pad. Mike slowly placed Emersion on the ground, walking to the edge surveying the damage before crouching down in front of her and placing a comforting hand on her knee. Emersion looked up to Mike " Where're going to have to jump "
" What " Emersion stumbles out " Mike, look at me I can't stand there's no way I can jump " tears welling in her eyes, slowly coming to the fact that this was the end for her.
" Do you trust me " Mike asked her. Emersion gulped looking up at the man that was her second Father nodding her head " Ok close your eyes and don't open them until you're in the water "
" Okay, tell Caleb I love him " Emersion whispers out and just like that Mike threw her over the edge.
