So many things were running through my head. The thrill of adrenaline injected into my body. I was about to make a decision that could either kill or save him.
I wanted to save him. He is all I have left at the moment.
Looking across the room our g...
When we arrived at the elevator, I looked at Charlie, "What do we do? The buttons are fucking jammed!" "I've got an idea, the vents lead to the elevator, you can slide from the ropes and open the door and take Lilli out of there." I was thinking this plan through. "Let's hope it all goes well and I'll go since I'm smaller and much more flexible than you are." Smiling sweetly at my brother. "Well c'mon open the vent."
"All right calm your horses you're going to get to her." He grabbed the crowbar and used it to open the vent. "Be quick and safe. Please, I don't know what I would do without you." Charlie kissed my forehead and pulled me into a hug. I hugged him back, "Don't worry, but if I'm not back in 15, call for help or something." He nodded and sat on the floor.
I took a few breathes in and out and into the vents I go. Someone should really consider cleaning these vents. I mean seriously how much does it kill someone to clean some dust? Maneuvering through the vents I saw some ropes. Surely the ropes of the elevator.
I started to push the vent door until it flew off and made a big crashing sound as it hit the elevator. Quickly pulling myself out reaching for the rope. So far so good. I'm not dead....yet. I slid down the rope slowly hoping not to rip or break anything. I mean peoples lives are at risk and if my clumsy self-messed up. I would feel at guilt.
I grabbed my crowbar and yanked open the door on the top. My breathing stopped and my heart rate fastened. "Lillian you there?" No answer. I look into the elevator and I gasp. They look as if they were...dead. Only three people but how am I supposed to get them out of here?
I propped my self into the elevator. I walked over to Lilli's body and checked her pulse. Her heart is nearly beating. I checked the other girl's pulse. Their pulse was beating very slowly. "I need you guys to wake up and try to climb up out of here. Please help me so I can help you." Lillian reacted to my voice. Good girl.
I helped her up and dropped my bag on the floor so she reached the hole. Meanwhile, as she got her self up as much as she could, I helped the other girls up and gave each a push in order to make it out. Luckily the mask helped me not breathe the intoxicated air. Almost there. But what if we don't make it?
No, I need to stop being so pessimistic. I climbed out of the elevator. Now to get these girls out without them dying on me. Think think think Joseline. I was starting to sweat and I could feel my desperateness to save these girls and my best friend.
I took a step and tripped over something hard. Why must I be clumsy know??? Especially at times of crisis. Oh, wait it looks like a ladder. I took it out and extended it. Great this works perfectly fine. "Do you guys have enough oxygen or energy to climb up into the vents??" They all looked at each other drowsy and nodded. "Here take my mask and try not to breathe any more of the toxic air, okay?"
I was risking it but man I wouldn't live with myself if they died. Even if it meant that I did, they didn't. Taking my mask off I prepared for the pain and the feeling. I took a breath and I instantly felt suffocated and dizzy. "All right no more time to waste start climbing, " Taking deep long breathes trying to stabilize me. They all started to climb, me going last. I am very unsuccessful at pulling myself together. They all made it through the vents and It feels like I am on cloud nine, if such thing does exist.
I finally reached the vent trying not to pass out. I wonder how Lilli and the girls feel. I think they're more intoxicated than me. Making my way out of the vent, I try to walk but it's so hard. What is this chemical? And what is it doing to our humanly bodies? I try to take a few breaths but my lungs can't take it. I look around to see that the girls are all ready walking our of the school, trying not to fall or pass out.
Charlie was carrying Lilli out. Oh fuck, I'm not going to make it. I take a few steps trying not to fall but I fail, falling on my knees. My body has lost most feeling. So I just start to crawl. Almost there. I stop to take breathe. My arms and legs are shaking about to collapse any minute now.
I see a body walking towards me. My body collapses and I lay on the floor trying not close my eyes. A pair of very strong arms grabbed me and carried me. The numbness and pain were just too much to handle and before I know it my eyelids close shut on me.

My eyes felt really heavy. I started to move from my position. Was I asleep? My eyes finally opened and I took in my surroundings. The walls were all white and bare. It looked looks like I'm in a hospital. But what happened...?
There was a knock on the door. Charlie came through the door with a glass of water. The bags under his eyes showing his exhaustion and stress. He gave me a smile and walked to the bed, "You're up, how are you feeling." I swallowed my saliva unable to form any words.
"Do you want some water?" I nodded my head and he handed me the glass of water. I gulped it down desperately. Lord Jesus did that feel good. "I am good just very numb. What happened?" Charlie sighed, " Well someone seemed to have intoxicated the school with sulfur dioxide and a lot of people were harmed by it." It all came to me and I gasped. He seemed to have read my mind, "Don't worry Lilli is safe, but she hasn't woken up she was way more intoxicated than you but she'll make it. No one so far has died."
And that's when I saw the vision. * If I didn't save Lilli and those other two girls, they would have died* Tears started to well up my eyes. I almost died but it was going to be worth it. Charlie grabbed my hand, " You're really brave you saved two girls and your best friend, but I almost lost you." His eyes heavy with emotion. "But you made it and that is what is important."
"The only reason you made it was because someone saved you. Your body gave out on you but without them I don't know what I would be doing right now." I looked down at my lap. There was another knock on the door that stopped me from saying anything. A nurse came in informing us we where clear to leave, she gave me some medications and told us to take care.
In the car ride I was wondering who was my savior. Curiosity overtook me and asked, "Charlie, who saved me?" He looked intensely in thought before giving me an answer. He very hesitantly responded," Miles Everett, I already thanked him for saving you, but I don't want you near him. That boy is a chaos." I nodded at this and looked at the window to the landscape passing by with a blur. I take a deep sigh and give Charlie a small smile," I'm thankful too."
