Lainie: Holy crap... what happened?!

I scan the scene.

Rubble lay everywhere.

I turned around.

Yep. Chance. The kid who had a crush on me.

Lainie: Chance! OMG, your alive!

Chance smiled, came up, and hugged me.

Whoa there, buddy boy!

?: Chance? Lainie? HELLO! LOVEBIRDS! HELP MEEE!

Lainie and Chance simultaneously: Kiley?

Kiley: I'm stuck! Joel's trying to help me...

Joel!

We went over to the others, helping them.

Kiley smiled.

Lainie: What?

Kiley motioned to Chance and me.

Chance was holding my hand.

Lainie: ...

Joel: ... Nice going, Chance.

Chance: :)

Lainie: C'mon, guys. Have you seen anyone else?

Joel: I thought I saw someone...

Lainie: Blaize?

Blaize: Help me! Hurry up, slowpokes!

Blaize...

We helped her out.

Blaize: Where's the rest of them? Heather? Wyatt? Dylan? Lauryn? You know... our classmates?

Lainie: Yep. I agree.

The rest: Lets go.

So, we continued north...
