The winds were high, the leaves flying everywhere then on a deserted road in Seattle sat an ambulance with two frightened firefighters in it, they just finished treating there patient, who lay on the stretcher with a bad leg, the two paramedics fought and discussed what they should do, they grab the radio and they speak into the device but they don't get no reply all they get is static, the winds knocked the signals down, know they are stranded, as they sat there not moving Andy and Sullivan are startled when all of a sudden they feel the ambulance moving with the wind, the winds are so strong that Andy and captain Sullivan struggled to buckle themselves into their seats when the ambulance ploughed through a guard rail on the side of the road, then bam the ambulance fell over the edge rolling and rolling until it stops near to the cliffs edge.
Andy and Sullivan lay in their seats hunched over the dash board bleeding and seriously injured whilst the ambulance lay smashed up and, on its side,

Station 19
Meanwhile back at station 19 the friends giving was in full swing, no one noticed Andy and Sullivan hadn't come back from the shout they attended earlier in the shift, they were busy celebrating thanksgiving plus one of their own has just been promoted to lieutenant.
10 minutes into eating and half the food was gone, the guys decide to leave some for Andy and captain Sullivan, they all look around expecting them both to walk through the door.
someone speaks.
Maya looks around the table and she feels the loss of her friend who is not sat around the table celebrating thanks giving with her, she gets concerned about her not answering her phone and not being there along with their captain, she pulls out her phone and she tries her again, and again she gets the messaging service for Andy's phone, she huffs at the results, she gets up and she heads away from the table making people aware of her distress.
"hey Maya what's up with you" asks Jack the first one to notice her get up from her seat?
"oh nothing" answers Maya.
"really Maya I have been your boss for years and I know nothing and I know you, and I see the concern on your face you are worried" explains Pruitt.
"fine Andy and Sullivan haven't come back from that crash and I am just worried she is my best friend and this seems wrong us eating without her, and I really want to share my promotion news with her but she isn't here" explains Maya.
"how long ago was the call out" asks jack?
"at the start of the shift" answers Travis.
"that long and no one has heard from either of them" asks Pruitt.
"hey maybe they are stuck on the road with the patient, and possible Sullivan is telling Andy his life stories" suggests Ripley.
"yeah or maybe something bad has happened out on that road" says jack.
"yeah and we wouldn't want history to repeat itself" says Pruitt.
"history" asks Travis?
"you may as well tell them they probably thought something was off about the man least we can have the decency to tell them why he was reluctant to go to the road" explains Pruitt.
"hey can someone please tell us what's going on, and does it help find our missing colleagues" asks jack?
"no, it doesn't find them but it speaks to the captains state of mind" says Pruitt.
"okay a long time ago captain Sullivan was station here in station 19, and on a certain day me and Sullivan were called to a car accident, this day for Robert changed his life and his persona and career, the accident was in the place he was called out to at beginning of shift" explains Ripley until he was cut off when someone asked a question.
"what happened at the crash" asks Travis eager to know the details?
"when we arrived, Robert was shocked to find his wife's car involved, he seen the car empty, she was missing he frantically looked for her he found her a few metres away from the car, she was severely injured and unfortunately, she died in the ambulance with Robert beside her, and that's why he left Seattle" explains Ripley.
"wow" everyone mumbles together.
"yeah so that's why he is so cut off from the rest of us" says ripley.
"sir could he have had a flash back from that day, maybe it stopped him from doing his job" asks Travis?
"maybe I don't know he doesn't talk much about the accident to me since he blamed me for her death" answers Ripley.
"great so my best friend is out there with her patient and her boss who maybe having a ptsd moment, so what do we suggest we do" says Maya.
"I say we get in the engine and the new truck, we drive around until we find them and look for people who also got caught in the storm see if they need help" suggests jack.
"great idea, jack you take the new truck with Travis and dean, and I will take the ladder with Maya, Vic and warren" says Ripley.
All the officers run out the room and to the trucks, they set off to the spot where Andy and Sullivan should have been, as they go along the streets, they check for other civilians who may need help.
Driving along the truck and ladder come to the place of the accident, they all see the accident but there is no sign of the ambulance, or the patient Travis drives on until he notices debris on the road and a missing piece of metal from the rail on the side of the road, then they see the skid marks on the road, Maya slams the breaks on she jumps out the driver's side she runs to the side of the road and looks down, everyone is shocked to see the ambulance down the embankment in a mangled state.
