"I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones. Enough to make my systems blow. Welcome to the new age, to the new age." I sang as Steve drove back to the Warehouse from our latest snag. The artifact was Pascal's calculator, it made you a math genies but with too much expose to it gave you tuberculosis. Steve was taking his turn driving. We had driven all night long, all the was from Florida to South Dakota. It was about three in the afternoon. I could see that Steve was getting exhausted. He had only be since about four in the morning. "Steve, I can drive if you want." I offered when the song stopped playing.
"No, Claude, I am fine." Steve said. I watched him closely to make sure he was truly okay. After a few minutes, I figured that he was so I decided to find something to do on my computer. I started to play random games on there for a few hours. Soon my computer was getting to hot and I was getting to board. I looked over at Steve and he looked like he was half dead.
"Please, Steve take a break." I said to him as he yawned. I wanted to get home in one piece.
" We are almost home. I can drive." Steve said. I felt uneasy about letting him continue, but I gave up trying to get him to take a break. I laid back my seat to rest a bit. occasionally I would look over at Steve to make sure that he was okay. I looked out the window and saw a car heading towards us. "Steve!" I yelled, but it was too late. I felt my body being throw forwards. I could hear the crunch of the metal. I felt the car tip over and roll down the hill. The windows were breaking and glass was flying everywhere. The last thing I saw before my world went black was Steve standing in front of me.
(Steve's point of view)
I should have listen to Claudia. If I did she would still be okay now. Slowly, I made my way out of the car, which was on its side. Once on the ground I quickly made it to the other side of the car. I looked in the sunroof and saw Claudia's body covered in glass. She was unconscious. I could hear the Police serons. I sat down and waited for them to come find us. "It will be okay Claude," I whispered.
I heard some people starting to make their way down the hill. I stood up and walked over to them. " My friend, Claudia, is still in the car." I told them.
"Okay sir. We will get her out. Please go up there and have a medic look at you." The police officer told me. I nodded my head and made it up the hill. One of the medics rushed over to me and had me sit in the back of the ambulance while they took care of the cuts on my hands and face. Once there we done, I got my phone out and dialed Myka. "We heard, Steve we are on our way."
"Claudia's still trapped in the car." I informed them. " They have tried to get her out of about on hour now."
" She will be fine Steve, Claudia's strong." Myka said trying not to cry, but you could hear her voice breaking. " We will see you at the hospital." She said before she hung up the phone.
After putting my phone in my pocket, I walked over to one of the Officers. " Will the have her out soon?" I asked him.
The police office was about fifty years old. "I am not going to lie to you son," He started to say. " Your friend it trapped pretty tight. And we are trying to find a way to get her out without hurting her any more." He told me.
"Is there anything I can do?" I asked him.
"I'm afraid not." The man said. "But if is, I will let you know."
I stood at the edge of the hill and waited for them to bring up Claudia. Another hour passed. I got out my phone and called Myka back. " Hey Steve." I heard her say through the phone. "Are you guys at the hospital yet." She asked me.
"No." I told her. "Claudia is still in the car. They are trying to find away to get her out without hurting her anymore."
"Pete and Artie went back to the B&B to get you to a few changes of clothes." Myka said. "Did they say who hit you?" She asked.
"No," I haven't asked." I said.
"STEVE!" I heard Claudia yell. I shut the phone without a goodbye and ran down the hill to the car. Once I got there I went to the side Claudia was on.
"It's okay. Claude." I tried to comfort her. Her make-up was smeared and her eye's were bloodshot.
"How much longer till they get me out of this death trap?" She asked. Her voice was hoarse.
" I'm not sure?" I told her as I put my hand through the sun roof and grabbed her hand. Claudia's grip was weak. And her hand is covered in blood. I stood there for about thirty minutes before one of the workers tapped me on the shoulder. "I will be right back." I told Claudia. She nodded her head. I let go of her hand and walked over to were the worker, who tapped me shoulder, was standing.
"Your friend is trapped in there. Her seat beat is stuck and the dash-board as trapped her legs. We can not use the jaws of life with out the dash-board falling more. We are trying to get a crane down here so we can lift the car up. But that could take an other hour or so. What we can do is trying to pull her out through he soon roof. But It will cause her a lot of pain. And we would need you to go into the car and help. Your ATF Right?" The man said. I knew that this was our only option.
"Yes and let's go for it. I am sure she can handle it." I told him as I walked back to Claudia to explain what we were going to try.
