"Severide?" Mills?" Savannah called coughing from the smoke.
"Over here." Mills said waving his hand.
"What we got?" She asked crouching down towards the Caucasian male.
"Head laceration and possible broken tib and fib." Mills said.
"Okay let's try and move him." Savannah asked once she had put a line in.
Suddenly a beam fell from above blocking their way.
"Damn." Mills said watching as the beam caught fire.
"This is Severide. Mills, Savannah and I are trapped, first floor with unconscious male." Kelly radioed.
Savannah started coughing from the smoke.
Mills rummaged in the medical bag and handed her a oxygen mask,"This should help for now."
"Thanks." She replied putting it on.
Just as she placed the mask on the ceiling began to creak and flakes off paint floated down through the air.
"Severide." Savannah said pointing to the ceiling.
"We need to get out of here." He said,"Can we move him?"
"Yeah should be okay to, it's just his leg." Savannah said briefly taking off the oxygen mask.
"Okay on three. One. Two. Three." Kelly said as the others helped lift him.
Just as they did, the area where they used to be stood fell through the floor as the ceiling crashed down.
"Severide,Mills. Where are you?" Casey radioed both the firefighters.
"First floor.Savannah is with us, we needed some help. We'll be out soon." Mills radioed back.
"Okay, you have two minutes. This place is going up soon."
Severide scanned the area,"Uh, we might have a problem then."
Just then the ceiling fell through and the floor they were stood on collapsed into the basement.
Meanwhile...
The rest of the fire crew and Shay were stood outside waiting for Mills,Severide and Savannah. Casey was about to ask Severide what he meant by they might have a problem but before he could he watched in dismay as the second floor crashed into the first floor.
Casey grabbed his radio,"Severide. Mills. Savannah."
The team waited anxiously for reply but heard none.
Inside the warehouse...
"Savannah! Mills!" Severide called in between coughs.
"Over here." Said Mills waving his hands.
Severide climbed over the rocks and rubble to where Mills was.
"Where's Savannah?" He asked noticing the brunette wasn't there.
"I don't know. She was there but..." Mills said putting one hand on the back of his head and pointing in the direction of where a pile of rocks where.
"We'll find her." Severide said looking directly at Mills.
He knew Mills cared for Savannah, they were very close and already knew each other well before she joined house 51 so he knew if anything happened to Savannah he would blame himself.
Suddenly they heard the sound of moving rocks. Mills was first to notice it,"Severide over there."
The two crawled over the bricks and metal to the pile of bricks.
"Savannah!" Mills called.
After waiting a few minutes they both heard coughing coming from under the rocks,"Mills?"
"Savannah! Are you okay?" Mills asked concerned.
"Um I think so, apart from the rocks on above me. The injured male is down here too." Savannah said through coughs.
"Casey should be coming with the others." Severide said.
"Can you move?" Mills asked her.
"No offence or anything Mills but if I could I would have moved from underneath these rocks by now." Savannah said laughing causing Mills to turn red.
