10 minutes later the flames were upto the roof. The whole apartment had
disappeared into grey smoke. Shane once again remained asleep. Not knowing
what was going on around him. Minute by minute the flames got higher and
higher. Luckily for Shane the landlord had arrived.
"Shane,Shane. Are you in there boy?"
The Landlord got no reply. The hallway outside Shane's apartment was covered in smoke. The Landlord had no choice,no choice but to kick the door in. He kicked the door as hard as he could but still it wouldn't open. He yelled.
"Can somebody help me please!"
Luckily someone did. Two people actually. A husband and Wife. The wife went to call fire and rescue,the husband helped kick the door in. 5 minutes later the door to Shane's apartment opened and a blaze of smoke came out. You couldn't see nothing but smoke. It was dangerous.very dangerous but the Landlord and the Husband still went inside.
"Shane! Shane!!!"
The landlord yelled. But got no reply. The Landlord began searching the apartment using his hands to see. But however much he searched they couldn't find Shane. The fire and rescue crew arrived. They got both the Landlord and the Husband out and asked them if anyone else was inside.
"Shane's in there."
Said the Landlord. The crew went back into the apartment and searched for Shane whilst fighting the flames. Eventually they found him,but not on the couch were he first fell to sleep. But callapsed in a corner at the side of a window. Unconscious.
"I found him,i found him."
Shouted one of the fireman. The fireman then grabbed shane and took him out of the building. They had to this time take him out through the window because the flames were blocking all exits through the door.
Once Shane was out the fire and rescue team took Shane over to the paramedics. When they got him there,Shane had stopped breathing. The paramedics fought to revive him but for a long time it looked like they were getting no where.
"Come on lets go.He's dead there's nothing more we can do."
Said the chief paramedic.
"No wait,i just want one more try...That's all."
Replied a paramedic. Her name was Louise. She knew Shane,she watched wrestling. She'd had a hard day and wasn't prepared to lose her idol. She took one more go at reviving Shane and luckily it paid off. Shane was back breathing. The paramedics put Shane i the ambulance and drove him to the hospital.
Shane spent a week in hospital unconscious. When he finally awoke,he called.
"Mom.....Dad?......Steph.....Marissa?"
But he got no reply. He tried his best to look around and couldn't see anyone. However,if he had only been able to lift himself up and look at the bottom of the bed he would have seen his father. Asleep,in a chair. At the side of him,three other chairs. Empty but still three empty chairs would have been enough to know his family was atleast in the same country as him.
A few minutes later Linda arrived with coffee.
"Shane,Shane....oh my god....Vince get up, get up now!!!!!"
"What........."
Vince replyed rubbing his eyes
"It's Shane,Shane's awake."
Vince jumped up and went over to his son. Shane made one move and one move only. He grabbed his fathers and his mothers hand. He grasped their hands tight. He was glad,so glad. To see his parents,he thought he'd lost them. Lost them forever. Although he never said it,he actually needed his parents. He needed them to guide him still. To stop him,to stop from doing things he'd regret. Like turning back to drink.
A nurse came over to Shane,she pulled the tube gently out of his mouth and took the tape from his eyes. Shane coughed. The nurse gave Shane an oxygen mask. Shane muttered...
"I don't want it"
The nurse put the oxygen mask on his neck so he could talk.
"Mom,i'm so sorry"
"there's no need."
"there's every need!It was his stupid mistake"
Vince sneared. He wasn't happy. He was heartbroke about what had happend to his son but he knew it was all self inflicted. He knew that what happend didn't need to have happen if shane had only not drank as much as he did. So therefore he was angry,angry at his son for putting the rest of the family through this. To make them suffer even more.
"Do you realise what you've done. We thought you were dead."
"I'm sorry Dad"
"oh really...well now i understand why you came to Switzerland Shane. So you could drink. So no one could stop you from drinking ."
"i only drank that night and"
"bullshit shane"
"Vince leave him alone he's been through alot." Said linda
"Leave him alone?.....no way... You know i use to think you were intelligent Shane,i use to think you were special.........i use to be proud of you shane....but now....Now your just a disgrace...........I mean what kind of son would do something like this?"
"i didn't mean to"
"Don't bullshit me Shane. You didn't meanto do this? hah? Yeah right like you didn't mean to start taking drugs,like you didn't mean to hit Marissa. Like you didn't mean to start drinking.... and most of all you didn't mean to come to Switzerland"
"i was coming back"
"BULLSHIT! you won't come back to the States your too busy reacking our lives. Making me,your mother,Steph and Marissa suffer.You know your lucky Marissa hasn't divorced you... .you deserve it. You truly do....You know she was heartbroken when she came back from Switzerland..........but what am i telling you for? you don't care."
Shane began to cry. Vince left. Louise walked in.
"Hi everybody"She said
"Shane it's louise......the girl that saved you,don't you remember?"Linda asked Shane
"ummm........i don't think he'd remember somehow..haha.."
"Am i right they'd given up?...."
"Yeah,yeah....But i wasn't gonna lose my idol...."
"See shane thats how much your fans love you! you could have died......you stopped breathing...Louise saved you."
"not just me....there's the fire and rescue team don't forget..........I mean without them shane would have burnt away in his apartment........anyway......i gotta go...got another emergency to see too... seeyah round.."
Louise stared at Shane for a while then went upto him and kissed him on the cheek..
"seeyah louise" said linda.
"seeyah"
Louise left. Shane said nothing to her. Not even thankyou......Infact he didn't say nothing for the rest of the day. He just looked at the roof and rested no matter what people said to him.He was thinking,constantly thinking about what Vince said........he knew his father was right.....
