The paramedics rushed to the limp body in the middle of the street. The river of blood in which the body was bathing had soaked the victim's cloths giving them a smell like one of metal but that didn't matter. What mattered was the man's life which was rapidly fading. The piece of glass that had impaled the man during the impact was the size of a big kitchen knife and was sticking out from the man's side.

On the sidewalk was a red-haired woman sobbing. She was the reason the man had been hit by a car. She was the reason he was in this state. It was her turn to cross the street when a car passed a red light and headed straight in her direction. At the last second, this mysterious man pushed her on the sidewalk preventing her from getting crushed but unfortunately had been hit in the process. Now, he was dying on the hard pavement, his life held by a thread.

One of the paramedics checked for a pulse and found a weak one. Immediately, the team took action. One of them started cardiac massaging the man while another one was trying to stop the bleeding. The others around them were preparing to bring the victim on the ambulance.

The crowd who had seen the entire scene was speechless. Some women were crying on their boyfriend's shoulder while others seemed shell-shocked. The driver, who no one had paid attention to, came out of his car. When he saw the figure of the dying man, he zigzagged towards it. A police officer who prevented him from getting too close almost threw-up when the driver's breath reached his nostrils. The man had drank too much for sure because the smell of booze oozed from him. The tipsy man fell to his knees, silent tears sliding down his face as he muttered incomprehensible apologies. Unfortunately, no apologies could erase his actions.

The paramedics carried the body in the ambulance and the woman had to go in another one seeing she had a huge scrape on the side of her head.

The sirens of ambulances could be heard in the crowded streets of New York City as they made their way to the New York Presbyterian Hospital.
