Chapter 2: Meeting a Hero

MATT'S POV

________________________

"GET OUT OF THE WAY!!

One second I was acting, and the next I was flying across the room. I looked up confused and saw one of the walls had fallen over exactly where I was standing.

Had I been... pushed out of the way? By who? I jumped up, spinning around on the balls of my feet. I started moving my legs at a fast as they could take me, which to my knowledge, was faster than usual.

As I was running, I felt a sharp pain in my leg, but I shook it off and continued running.

There was a hand, a small one with black nail polish on the fingertips hanging slightly out of the wall. "HELP! HELP SOMEBODY!! There is someone under the wall!" I yelled. I could feel sweat running slowly down my forehead.

Oh gosh, had I killed a child? I thought to myself. The hand was small enough to be a 16 year olds.

I turned around and everyone was rushing to the wall trying to get it off of her. I glanced over at Arthur and saw him with his face dug into the palm of his hands, wet tears dripping from his fingertips.

I ran over to him, determined to figure out why he was crying. "That girl... That saved you... You didn't know who she was did you?" Arthur mumbled

I shook my head, no.

"She was my BEST FRIEND... She risked her life for you.... And you didn't even know her"

I pat him on the back reassuring him that everything was going to be okay, but I could tell he was angry at me, so I walked away. I could feel the guilt building up inside of me with each step I took.

As I started walking towards the wall to see if they had made any progress I heard, "Makenna, her name was Makenna Blake Skyler" I turned around to see Arthur standing closely behind me. "Thanks." I mumbled.

I ran over to the wall, and saw that they had gotten it off of her. Her eyes were shaking, her hands trembling. I bent over near her and askedm "Are you hurt?"

We both sat there in silence for a moment, when she finally answered, "Matt, you are Matt Smith...... and you are talking to me." She gave a weak smile, then closed her eyes slowly.

"HELP! She passed out again.... help." I could feel the wet, salty, hot tears start to flow out of my eyes, blurring my vision. "We called for an ambulence, it is going to be ok." Karen said while resting her chin on my shoulder.

After what seemed like eons, the ambulence finally arrived. They picked her up and put her on the bed thingy, with Arthur and I following closely behind. They allowed us to ride in the ambulence, so we both sat down, making ourselves comfortable.

While on the way to the hospital, I thought to myself,

"She is...... beautiful......"

There it was again, the sharp pain in my leg. I think something happened to it when I fell into the wall. I was too focused on Makenna to really notice the pain though.

After a while, we arrived at the hospital.
