1.7a-Getting out

29 October 2020

3rd

Yo wakes up. Feeling a daze. He looks around him and sees crumble. Surrounded by smoke and flames. "Erik!"

"Erik! Where are you?" Yo gets up and tries to Erik. He saw him close to the fire. Yo tried waking him up but to no avail. He checks for a pulse. Notice it's small. He begins CPR on him. "Come on Erik." He keeps going. *cough*Cough* "Erik, Erik wake up." Yo kept tapping his shoulder.

"Yo, what happened?"

"There was an explosion."

"How?"

"Explain later right now let's get out." They both got out and went out of the doors. They avoid the fire. As best as they could. Took the stairs down. As they went down they met up with Forth.

"P'Forth what are you doing?"

"Yo." Forth hugged him tight "You're alright."

"What are you doing?"

"Getting people out of here. The first floor has been evacuated. Going to the second."

"Third floor is clear I had sent them out already when the gas started leaking. No should be in the second."

"Ming is there."

"What?!" Fear in Yo's eyes. "The twins."

"They were safe. They were in the Mings office when the explosion happen and wasn't badly injured. Ming had them go through his side door and should meet with Lam." Yo looked at Forth waiting to hear about Ming.

"Where's Ming?" Forth didn't want to answer.

"Forth!"

"He's trap inside. He was trying to find a way out. I haven't been able to reach it since the first time."

"Let's go." Yo quickly said.

"Yo, you need to go down the twins."

"They will be fine with Lam. Ming is my best friend and has been my family since we were kids. He needs me." Yo quickly ran back up to the second floor. But turned back around "Erik you go down and get checked and you wait for me to deal with you and you better hope nothing happens to Ming." Yo left and Forth followed.

Forth and Yo made it inside the second floor they got close to the doors. Forth kicked them open. They saw a collapsed room. "Ming! Ming!" they both yelled. But no response. But then they heard coughing. And just barely they could spot Ming. They both ran towards him. He was buried under. They tried removing the rumble from him but it was too heavy.

"Ming just hold on we're going to get you out." Forth said.

"P'Forth behind you." Before Forth could react he hit by a ladder on the head.

"P'Forth are you alright," Yo called out to him.

"Ya, I'll be fine. Let's move this and get out." They tried again but still couldn't.

"Just leave me," Ming said in a husky voice "save yourself, the firefighters will contain it and then come. I will just hold out till then."

"Don't be an idiot Ming. The fact that you've held out this long is a miracle. We are not tacking chance." Forth nodded.

"Forth! Ming! Yo!" the three all heard their names being called.

"Lam!" Forth called back since he recognized it. Lam reached them with the firefighter right behind him.

"Thank goodness you guys are alright."

"Lam were are my kids?"

"They went to the hospital, Godt got injured. I called Kat already she will get to them."

"Ming your gonna have to owe your girlfriend for us."

"Get me out here first then I will treat you all." Lam signals the fireman. 10 minutes later Ming was out and they made it out. Ming then fell into a coughing spree. Yo fainted but Forth caught him in time. Forth send them both to the hospital first. Lam put Forth in an ambulance and took care of the rest.
