Chapter 8

"Uh soooo I just have to watch ya? Like stare at ya?" Jerry spoke as Sam laughed.

"No. Ignore Penny." Sam spoke as Jerry nodded.

"Gotta hand it to ya you seem pretty impressive for an artificial being." Jerry spoke as Sam smiled.

"Thank... you." Sam spoke as Jerry gave him a thumbs up before looking out the window.

"Oh well it seems there is a fire after all. Best if stay here and keep safe." Jerry spoke as Sam frowned.

"I want... help." Sam spoke as Jerry shook his head.

"As much as we want to help we shouldn't. Though considering the whole crew and Station Officer Steele are going it must be a pretty big fire. If I go down you have to promise to stay put." Jerry spoke as Sam shook his head.

"No. I help too." Sam spoke as Jerry gave in and sighed.

"Fine, I will see what you can do to help." Jerry spoke as Sam smiled before they both walked out the door. Running to scene to see a building was engulfed with flames. 

"I was just about to call you Jerry. It's a pretty big fire. Gonna need all hands on deck for this one." Elvis spoke as Jerry nodded.

"Hey where's Sam?" Penny asked as Jerry looked at her.

"I told him to stay put right there. He must have ran off." Jerry spoke as Penny sighed.

"I can go look for him." Ellie spoke as Penny shook her head.

"We need everyone here to fight the fire. We can look for Sam later after the fire has been delt with and everyone has been escorted out safely." Penny spoke as Arnold nodded at someone.

"I was told there are still people inside." Arnold spoke as Ellie sighed.

"Who's going to get them out?" Ellie asked as glass broke. Sam jumped out of a second story window carrying two children. He dropped them on the ground safely before going back inside to get the last two people stuck inside, a mother and a father. Sam smiled as he made sure they were all safe, and as soon as the fire went out the team all high fived. They then made sure everyone was oke before going over to Sam.

"Sam that was not only dangerous but also a stupid thing to do." Penny spoke as Sam frowned.

"I helped." Sam spoke as Penny nodded.

"While you did help you did so without the proper equipment. What if you could have died?" Penny asked as Sam shook his head.

"I'm not human. My skin not hurt easily." Sam spoke as she shook her head.

"Well to me your human. I don't want to lose you because you decide to do stupid things." Penny spoke as Station Officer Steele came closer.

"I agree with Penny. What you did was stupid and reckless. But.. we could use someone like you on the force." He spoke as Sam smiled.

"You want to hire a sixth member sir? In all due respect I don't think Pontypandy needs six firefighters." Arnold spoke as Ellie glared at him.

"I think you mean four firefighters Arnold. Station Officer Steele can barely fight fires these days. Having Sam on the team would be a great change of pace for us." She spoke to Arnold before whispering to Penny. "It also gives us a great chance to watch him." Ellie whispered and smiled as Penny nodded.

"Well if you all agree to it I can file the necessary paperwork and give him the proper tests and training. If all goes well he can be a part of the team." Station Officer Steele spoke as Elvis and Jerry fist bumped.

"Way to go Sam!" Elvis cheered as Penny smiled.

"I'm happy for you Sam. But, in the future try not to do anything stupid, alright?" Penny spoke as Sam nodded. Taking her hand as he walked off.
