Fire, it was hot and hard to breath,the walls melted around the small family, but thats not what frightend the girl.'will it hurt?' the girl thought to herself . She whimperd as the fire stalked the last of life from her surroundings, the heat billowing like a caged animal. It was so hot, so hot yet the girl did not feel it,her mothers arms falterd there strong embrace, her fathers eye's closed, her sister snuggled closer for saftey.
" I love you,"she whisperd softly
"I love you too,"her sister said
The girl sobbed,holding her sister close.
"I'm scared,"whimperd the younger of the two
"Dont worry I'll protect you,"said the eldest strongly
"you promise?" she sobbed
"I promise I will protect you, I wont let go, o..ok,"there was a catch in her thoat
she hugged her sister closer thinking 'I'll die for her, Take me,take me, not her,".
There was a loud BOOM that echoed threw the halls of burning wood.
Suddenly a large man came into view just beyond the curtain of flames
"Please,..P...Please Help,"screamed the girl waving her arms to get his attention.
The man looked at her with concerned eyes, she closed hers still pleading to him for help and to the fire to leave her sister and to take her instead,And then there the man was.
"ar ya allright the love, can yar 'ear me girly?"his hand rested on her shoulders
"yes, please help us,"she cried holding her sobbing sister out first. The man grabbed both of them, Running threw the flames and keeping them out of harms way. Infact he did'nt stop running untill he reached the woods over the hill, thats when he sat them down.
"T..Thank you*sniff* Thank Y..You so much,"said the girl still sobbing
"It's allright, im just sorry I couldn't save yar parents too,"he said his irrish accent think.
The youngest hugged closer and cried for the relisation of her lost parents, the man watched on knowing he could do nothing to stop their pain,The girls stayed like this for many hours as did the finally the little one fell asleep.
