Last time:
Hasslebarry continued to argue with the fireman when he saw some one run past him. He and every body else turned to watch as Alexis ran straight into the fire.
Now:
"What's this? Some one's actually crazy enough to run straight into my fire? Ha! Well then, I guess it's only fair to let her help him a little bit before she becomes a part of my little game, this should be fun," Shadow chuckled as he watched Alexis while also keeping every one else out. If any one else tried what she just did they would burn to ashes in a matter of seconds.
Alexis' P.O.V
"Jaden! Jaden!" I screamed as I ran threw the flames. I could feel the scolding heat on my flesh as I tried not to get burned too badly. I had to find him, I just had to! Tears were poring from my eyes as thoughts like 'what if I'm too late?' and 'What if he's already dead?' crossed my mind. But I shook them off.
I didn't have a chose, I hadto save him! It just couldn't be too late! He had to be alive, other wise every thing would be over! All the friendships! All the memories! Every thing! It would all go down in smoke! Every thing would be over!
With the rest of the gang
Every one watched in silence as Alexis ran into the flames. No one moved or spoke for a few moments. The first one to speak was the firemen.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THAT GIRL! DOESN'T SHE KNOW SHE'S GOING TO DIE?!"
"Sir, calm down!'" the other firemen said.
"How can I just calm down! She just made it harder for us! Now we'll have to explain two teenaged deaths!" he screamed. Hasslebarry glared.
"Shut up,"
The two fire men, and the rest of the gang, turned to him. The angry fireman's eye brow twitched.
"What did you just say punk?"
"I said SHUT UP! You don't know Alexis and you don't know Jaden! They're both strong and neither of them will die so easily, so don't say that they will! You might as well be sentencing them to death the way you talk," Hasslebarry said with a glare. The fireman was speechless.
Chazz smirked, even as worried as he was he was glad to see the loud-mouth fireman shut his pie hole. Syrus was still crying, but smiled a small smile. He was thinking about Hasslebarry's words and knew that they were true. Bastion was just looking down, trying to think of a way to help his friends in any way that he could.
Back with Alexis, her P.O.V
I looked all around me, searching for him, but for the longest time all I could see was fire. But then I heard some thing. It s sounded like…crying?
I looked in the direction and gasped. "JADEN?!" I yelled and ran to him. He was unconscious and crying and a huge burning tree branch was on his stomach. I didn't think about what I had to do next, I just did it.
I shoved the branch off him, wincing and making a hissing noise as the fire burned my hands. I took a look at them, they were red just from that little bit of contact.
'I wonder how long that was on Jaden?' I thought sadly and looked. A choked gasp escaped my lips, apparently it had been on him for a while because almost all of the flesh on his stomach was gone, any thing else was either red from the burns or red from his blood.
"Oh Jaden," I whispered and started to cry, but I quickly wiped my tears away. I had more important things to do, like saving my friend. I had my jacket on since I'd first came out side. I figured that would have to do for a bandage, at least for now. So I took it off and wrapped it around his wound.
He whimpered in protest but didn't do anything else. I guess he was just in too much pain. I then lifted him up and put one of his arms over my shoulders and one of mine around his waist, trying to be as careful as possible. Then I started walking.
"He-he, looks like it's time to play with my new toy,"

A/N: Sorry for all the cliffies (did I spell that right or wrong?), I guess I'm evil. At least Alexis found Jaden though, well I have to go. I'll type more soon!
