Chapter Seven (Nick)

I think I've fallen asleep once or twice.

I have no clue how long it's been.

I try to stay awake because I know how important it is in a sitiuation like this.

If I fall asleep, I may never wake up again.

This is the scariest thing I've ever had to endure in my life.

Worse than Nigel Crane, worse than anything.

Waiting sucks.

It's like when you're in line for the newest, scariest ride in the park.

The more you wait, the scarier it is, except that you're life really isn't in any real danger, but mine is.

I see a flash out of the corner of my eye.

I twist my head and ignore the pain.

"Can anyone hear me?" a paramedic yells.

"Yes," I say with a raspy voice that I myself can barely hear.

"Yes!" I try again.

"Are you injured?" they yell back.

"Yeah! I'm trapped under debris!"

"Don't worry sir! We'll get you out! Can you tell us your name?"

"Nick! Nick Stokes! I'm in the ballistics lab!"

"We're coming sir!"

I feel a wave of nausea and everything goes black.

Review!
