One more chapter, then I'm going sleepies.
Ethan and Honey felt the house shake from the explosion, Ethan threw him and Honey to the floor with him shielding her, when they got up, the room was covered in smoke.
"Cal? CAL!" Ethan called to his brother, coughing.
Ethan and Honey walked out into the hallway to see Cal crawling Away from an unconscious Danny. Ethan crouched down next to Cal and placed a hand on his shoulder
"Cal? Can you hear me?!" Ethan shouted over the sound of flames. Cal raised his head.
"Ethan. What's happened?" Cal asked as he saw the smoke.
"I think the house is on fire, quickly into the bedroom. Outside the window is a balcony." Ethan answered as he watched Cal stand up.
Cal, Honey and Ethan walked into the room when Danny, who was still laying on the floor, grabbed Ethan's leg. Ethan struggled to get away. The floor under Danny gave way and he fell into the fire killing him instantly. Ethan was hanging over the hole with fire underneath, holding on for dear life.
"Ethan! Hold on!" Cal shouted to his brother.
"Really? Gee why didn't I think of that?" Ethan thought sarcastically while frowning at his brother.
The closer Cal got to Ethan, the more cracks the floor caused. It couldn't handle a lot of weight so Cal got on the floor and stretched out his hand which Ethan took and managed to pull himself up using Cal's hand. They all went into the bedroom and shut the door.
Once on the balcony they breathed in the fresh air but they had to find a way to get down.
Luckily fire rescue were on scene and got a fire truck lift to rescue them. A ladder would be too dangerous since the entire house was on fire. Once levelled with the balcony, Honey was the first on the lift, followed by Cal, as Ethan was about to get on the lift, the floor underneath him collapsed, Cal and a fire officer quickly grabbed him and Ethan dangled once again over fire. They pulled him up into the lift where he, Cal and Honey all shared a hug.
N'awww wasn't that a cute way to end the chapter? I'm going to write and upload chapter four tomorrow which is probably 'today' by the time you all read it hehe.
