The Hybrid(One Direction-Zouis)

Chapter Seven- Savior

Chapter Seven- Savior

Smoke. Thick black smoke.

It entered my lungs; choking me and making me cough violently.

I needed air, fresh air.

Opening my eyes, I realized I couldn’t see, the black fog making my eyes water and blocking my view.

Something clamped onto my wrist, dragging me through the smoke to somewhere. I continued to cough, feeling like someone had poured dust into my lungs and I was now trying to cough it out.

A sudden burst of fresh air hit my face and I breathed deeply, finally able to open my eyes, only to see a tanned figure with cat ears and a white-tipped tail running back into the black smoke.

“Zayn!” I lunged after him, but arms wrapped around my stomach, dragging me back from the burning house.

“Niall, he’s better off in there than you are.” Liam hissed, dragging me to the front gates.

I looked up at the three-story mansion we’d called home, now dying in flames. And Zayn was somewhere in there.

Glancing around, I noticed Harry, Perrie, Danielle and Eleanor. Had Zayn saved them all too?

“Did Zayn get you guys out too?” I asked, glancing between them and the house. Perrie nodded.

“Yeah, he woke us all up just as the fire was starting and then as soon as we were out, it just flamed up so he had a harder time getting to you guys.”

“Wait, where’s Louis?”

“Inside.” Harry said grimly.

I turned my gaze back to the burning building with our friends inside.

Ψ Zayn’s POV Ψ

Although my vision was a little blurry, I could see better than they could, which meant I could get around quicker. I’d had to remove the bandage Liam had put on my ear in order to locate everyone, but my master was harder to detect than everyone else- there! In the study.

Darting up the stairs, I ignored the piping hot doorknob and crashed through the wood, alarming my master, who was coughing and trying to look around, unable to see.

“Who-cough cough- Who’s there?” He choked out, blue eyes bleary with tears. I gently grabbed his wrist and tugged him along, rushing out the same way I came in so that no beams would have time to drop down and block our path.

Snapping wood alerted my ears and I shot out the door just as three large, heavy, flaming beams dropped down onto the floor.

“Louis! Zayn!” I heard Liam’s voice somewhere off to the right, so I followed it, my eyes blinded a little by the flames.

Once we’d reached Liam, he took Louis for me while Niall hugged me tightly, extracting a cough from me as I finally took a little effect on being in a burning building for thirty minutes.

“Oh, Zayn! Thank you so much!” Danielle, Eleanor and Perrie squealed, crushing me into another hug, all smelling of smoke and perfume and them. Add that to the smoke wafting through the air and the scents of Harry and Niall standing near, I couldn’t help but sneeze.

“Bless you!” Perrie said softly as the other girls pulled away. I nodded, sneezing again. She smiled and walked back over to Danielle and Eleanor, starting an entirely new conversation about shoes and a shopping spree.

Liam had gotten Louis breathing normal again, and once he had, I was swept up in another hug, this time from Liam, for three things. A. Saving everyone B. Being okay and perfectly fine C. He needed comfort since he was a little shaky.
