Christine's P.O.V

I woke up in a burning building. I saw the doorway. I'm only ten feet away. If I try, I might be able to get out. I try to get up, but fall back down with a yelp. I can see what Jade meant now.

I'm gonna burn and possibly die forever. I'll die before saying goodbye to my friends and family. I'll die alone. I'll burn. Tears stream down my face as I struggle to go a few feet to save myself.

"DAD! BLAKE! ALLI! HILDA! AUSSIE! BECKY!" I screamed the names in order once they hit my mind, even though it's likely that not one of them would even hear me. (Becky is her cousin (in Boston guys.) 

"SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE ME BEFORE I FUCKING DIE!" I scream after making yet another useless attempt to save myself.

I make a few other useless attempts before someone picked me up in a fireman's carry. I saw the door getting closer and closer. I blackout again.

I wake up to the sound of a guitar. I sit up and notice Blake and Alli sitting around Casimir's burning body. Blake was warming their hands and Alli was strumming a song on the guitar.

"Oh, don't mind me warming my hands on this burning body." Blake said and rubbed her hands together. "Oh, good morning Christine. Yea, don't mind us warming our hands on a burning body." Alli said when she realized I was awake.

"If you where up a minute ago, you probably would've been able to see Sarah. She left a minute ago. I don't know but- She seemed- worried. I don't know. It's probably me." Blake said and leaned back.

"One, how did you find this body? And two, how did you find me?" I asked as I sat up. "Oh, funny story..." Blake started.

"Well I was using my rocket launcher to blow up parts of the wood buildings to get wood for the fire and now I'm on my last one. Alli said not to waste it, so I went looking for a new fuel source and found him." Blake said, motioning towards the body.

"The bullet in his stomach must of killed him." Blake said and the smallest smirk formed on my face. "You're the one who killed him, didn't you?" Blake said with crossed arms and a smirk.

"Yep." "Didn't you kill him last battle too?" Blake said and I nodded. "Jeez, you're pretty much dominating the kid." Blake said.

"Aren't ya'll the same age?" Alli asked, looking up from strumming away at her guitar, Blake just shrugged.

"And about finding you, I was out looking for wood and I heard you. You're a pretty damn lucky bastard, if the fire didn't kill you, that bullet hole sure as hell would've." Blake said and started looking through her stuff.

"We could probably fix your leg if Alli could built a dispenser, but the bandages will stay until she does that." Blake said. "It's not my fault I don't have metal!" Alli shot back in defense.

"Says the girl who talks to her sentry who she named 'Crowby'." Blake said and I gave Alli a look that she didn't seem to notice. "I thought you were asleep!" Alli says and I start laughing.

"Anyway, got anything for breakfast?" Alli asked as she put her guitar down and took out her bag. "I've got a bunch of Bonk!" I say and take out a can of Bonk! Atomic Punch along with some Nature Valley bars.

"Isn't that stuff experimental?" Alli asked. "Yeah, but it holds the world record for 'Most Caffeinated Drink'." I said and Alli just looked at me.

"I don't know about ya, but I'd rather not have chemical reactions going on in my stomach just so I could get an energy rush." Alli said and Blake pulled out pop-tarts.
