Chapter 29- Found dead of a heart attack

As I slid down the ladder, Uncle Joel told us about Bill, the guy we were looking for.

" Bill ain't exactly the most stable of individuals," He explained. " So when we get there, you let me do the talkin', and that goes for both of you."  

I climbed up the wall, which lead me to another stretch of the roof and another drop.

" OK," Ellie said as we came to the drop. " How in the hell are we going to do this?" 

" I'll just have to land on my good foot." 

I landed fine and did it again. 

" He just doesn't take kindly to strangers." Uncle Joel said as he landed. 

" You mean to people?" I asked Uncle Joel. 

" Uh, Joel, I think we need a little help," Ellie said, as she looked down at the drop. 

Uncle Joel caught me and lowered me down. 

" Thanks," I said. 

" How's that feelin'?"

" You hear that?" I asked after I heard a loud bang. 

" Sounds like something is in that building. Stay here." 

" Oh, shit," Ellie said. "You're going to go in there?" 

" I wanna see what we can find." 

" What if it's a Bloater?" I whispered. " Let me go in there and check." 

"You're going to find our body's when we die from a heart attack," Ellie said, as Uncle Joel opened the door. 

" Here, let me help you sit down," Ellie said, as she put her left arm around my waist. 

" Cement block." I pointed. 

For some reason, I felt out of breath. 

I started wheezing. 

" Are you OK?" Ellie asked as I clenched my chest with my right hand. 

" Inhaler, third pocket," I told her. 

She scrambled for my inhaler as fast as she could and handed it to me. 

I popped the cap off, shook it, and inhaled a large puff. 

" That's strange," I said. " I thought I shook my Asthma."
