"Bob!?" Ethan freaked. Bob narrowed his purple glowing eyes at him.

"You started all this Ethan! You and your scientist friends started this apocalypse!" Wade hissed from the other side of the lift. At the same time both Bob and Wade swiped at the chains pulling the lift up leaving the lift to plummet to the ground with everyone screaming in panic of falling.

Ethans POV
My eyes shoot open seeing a new surrounding that Im not used to or comfortable being in. There was rubble, dirt and concrete everywhere and a gagging smell in the air coming from god knows where. The ground beneath me digs into my back painfully and most uncomfortably as I turn looking around my surroundings. Like a war veteran thats just come back into a war recounting his horrors. It hits me all at once. Im on the ground, no longer in the ship. I begin to hyperventilate, knowing experiments were down here along with likely Bob and Wade that had taken out our rising platform. I get my arms stably behind me and push myself to sit up slowly with my body aching. My white lab coat torn and burnt with black goop. The taste of blood is strong and foul in my mouth. I stick my tongue out at its foulness only making it worse as I bring my tongue back with more blood meaning my lips were bleeding. My heart beat was loud in my ears and my head throbs and aches with each thud and beat while my eyes refuse moving. Delaying their movements. Black spots fill my field of vision as my ears pressure into ringing while I turn and look around behind me hearing voices knowing I wasn't delusional.
"Argh my head" I groan as I look around seeing the other scientists I had been working with doing check ups on each other. I turn my head and catch a glimpse to my side. The lift Bob and Wade had taken out had them crushed beneath it in black splats from the impact of all the scientists aboard it. Their foul smell being the stench lingering in the air.
Jacks gooping dead body lay opposite of what had been the lifts entrance. The ship was landed on the building top where Jack had jumped from to meet his fate. I examined everything with great focus, taking it all in mind then realize Mark is missing from the scene.

"Dr Ethan? Are you alright?" I turn to where the voice was heard calling my name seeing a mid tall young man with extremely light brown, short cut hair running towards me.

"I-I'm fine I think. Wheres Mark?" At saying Marks name, I had caught the attention of a few scientists that turned in my direction giving me expressions of sorrow. Professor Robin walked over to me helping me up to my feet slinging my arm behind his neck making me wince till the pain got worse making me yell. Robin looked at me worried asking if I was alright. I didn't say a word only breathed heavily and nodded. A sharp pain shot up my spine as he began helping me to walk to the ship with a new makeshift lift. I clenched my jaw shut tight as my body wanted to scream. The pain in my back the worst I had experienced. We got aboard the lift and Robin yelled "up" and we began to move from the ground towards the ship above.

"Robin... Wheres Mark?" I asked feeling ill and dizzy sounding like a drunk. He gave me a raised eyebrow that then fell to sorrow.

"Ethan...He..He hit the ground hard, Ethan... We're sorry. But we don't know if he will make it" Robin explained. I shook my head not believing him.

"Theres no way he hit the ground hard enough to kill him, we weren't high enough to." I argued. He didn't bother arguing back as we walked off the lift platform boarding the ship as he lead me into a check up room. While walking in I caught a view of myself in the mirror. I had a large wound in my head that bled down beside my eye and another cut in my lip bleeding down my chin and into my mouth too. My face was covered in dirt and bruises while my coat was pretty much throw out.
He sat me on the bed and I yelled in agonizing pain again. He apologized the called for a nurse. Footsteps echoed down the hall into the room. Robin spoke to the nurse that responded to his call then looked at me. I tried to read his lips... But I had no luck. They both nodded before the nurse entered and obviously Robin chose to stay outside so they could examine me. The door closed with a hiss of air and sealed shut. The white walls with a painted like glass that you could see grey or black figures through. She grabbed at my arms twisting them to examine them. She put a cold stethoscope on my chest and checked my heart beat, but I refused for her to put it on my back because I knew something was wrong. She began taking my clothes off. Leaving me in my underwear checking for life threatening injuries. She looked at my back with a gasp and poked it making me yell and tears form in my eyes.
"Please don't do that... I-it hurts" she shook her head.
