Mercedes last day on the job was here at last. She was 5 hours into her shift and couldn't wait to let it end, so she could get out of there. She hadn't felt like she belonged since Joey died. She heard the tones go off and sighed. One last call before her goodbye. She didn't hear where the fire was, since she was lost in thought. She moved downstairs to the truck and got in. The two busses followed the truck to the scene.
When they arrived at the fire scene, she realized it was a bar. Great. She thought as she got out and started giving orders of who goes in. She was down a firefighter, so she paired herself up with Angelina, and moved in to get anyone that was hurt. Carlos Jr. and Angela followed and came out after a minute with a body. Mikey and Tyrone pulled up with Maurice and Ty. They heard it was Arson, and with Ty being head of ACU and Bosco being head of ESU, they were required to be there. John and Mitchell pulled up and blocked traffic as Carlos and Angela went back in.
"That looks bad. Luckily they have a second company coming in." Robyn watched as Charlie and Kylie took care of the body that was just removed. Bosco and Ty set up the triage area and started to help Carlos and Robyn tag bodies as they were removed. They looked up to see the second floor starting to crumble.
"I hope they get out of there before it collapses." Robyn looked at her father, Maurice.
"Who's in there?" He asked her, standing up.
"Umm. Angelina, Carlos, Angela, and Lt. Boscorelli."
"Awe god!" Bosco ran towards the building as Jimmy pulled up. Anything over 2 alarms required the captain of the precinct to be there. Bosco ran straight into Jimmy.
"Where you running to?" Jimmy asked him as the building made a rumble.
"The entire 55 is in there! We got to get them out!"
~~~~~
Inside the bar, they heard the ceiling making a crumbling noise and they all looked up. Mercedes ran to the opposite side of the door, shoving Carlos and Angela. They were shoved and Angelina got hit with a piece of falling rafter.
"Carlos! Get Angelina! Come on! We got to get out of here! It's going!" She barked orders; she was not about to lose another person on her shift, especially her last one. Carlos helped Angela move the debris and picked up Angelina. He ran out as Angela went to her mother.
"Come on! We got to go!" Angela yelled and they headed for the door. They got trapped and their eyes went wide.
"Angela! The back door! Come on!" She pulled her daughter towards the back door and shoved her outside.
"Go! I'm right behind you!" Angela ran out the door and turned in time to see the entire 2nd floor collapse onto the first.
"MOM!" She ran around the front and into her father. She looked up at him, crying.
"Angela, what are you crying about? Where is your mother?" Carlos looked up as the building fell in on itself.
"She never got out! She's in there!" Angela pointed towards the back as Bosco, Ty, Mikey, Tyrone, Mitchell, John, and the rest of the 55 moved in. Jimmy gasped as they heard an explosion and the building turned into an inferno. Carlos started to get teary as he faced the realization that his wife never got out in time. Everyone watched, as the building burned, unable to put it out because of the large amount of alcohol in the building.
The building burned for 6 hours before it was turned into a smoldering pile of wood. Once it was smoldering, the entire 55 went to finding the lost Mother, Sister, Aunt and friend. It took a day to go through the rubble and found only 4 things of remains.
Carlos picked up the helmet, fire jacket and wedding ring and broke down. Bosco moved to him and held his sisters boots, crying as Jimmy cursed himself for letting this happen. All of the kids stood around, stopping the search when they found the rings and work clothes. Angelina looked at Mikey, who was sitting on the trucks bumper, crying. He never really got to tell his mother he was sorry for blowing up on her.
