Jim licked his lips nervously, not knowing what to do and desperately trying to think.

"Jimmy I'm scared." Eliza whimpered in his ear.

This didn't help him. He had no other choice, he had to run. Jim pushed Eliza's head down and close to his chest and started running, keeping his hand there, so it would protect her incase something fell from the sky. Jim ran through flames quickly so that nothing of his or her's would catch. His heart pumped in his chest and his biceps and arms burned badly thanks to the extra weight he was running with. He managed to reach the other end of the floor to where the stairs were.

He yanked the door opened and ran down them as quickly as possible, each step he took felt like he would fall all the way down them. There were no flames to be in sight there, which he was thankful for. He had run down the last step when finally he yanked another door open. Jim ran through the doorway and could see the entrance to the lobby clear at the other end. His heart fluttered once he saw he was almost out but then sunk when he heard cracking. Jim looked up and saw deep cracks forming on the ceiling.

"Shit." Jim told himself then started running as fast as he could.

He didn't get midway through the room when the ceiling started giving way. Jim stopped dead in his tracks and put Eliza on the ground. He looked up behind him and could see the fiery plaster falling. Jim then hit the floor himself completely covering Eliza's body with his own so nothing could fall on her. Eliza saw Jim's face hovering over her's his eyes shut and his hands on his head, his elbows holding him up over the child and her legs curled up into a ball, in between his legs.

Chris's eyes widened as she watched and heard the ceiling give way in there.

"No!" Chris screamed trying to make a run for he building but

Hondo managed to grab her waist and hold her back. Fuller turned to Chris and sighed.

"Sanchez! You are a professional, so act like one!" He hissed at her noticing people were looking at them weirdly and so was the cameras.

Chris looked at him meanly her face red and wet with tears and then she grabbed him by the collar of his suit.

"YOU THINK I GIVE A DAM WHO I AM THAT IS MY DAUGHTER IN THERE!!" Chris screamed at him causing Hondo to grin slightly.

T.J. ran his hand through his hair stressfully and then his eyes widened. "STREET!" T.J's shouted and took off running causing the rest to look as well.

Jim was limping up towards them, a young girl in his arms. Black ash was here and there on his face and blood oozed from numerous places.

The whole team darted after him. Once he saw T.J got close he dropped to his knees, wounded and weak and thankful someone else was coming to help him, giving him the cue that he no longer had to be strong.

T.J ran up smiling kneeling down next to him and pulling Jim's arm around his neck, helping him up, supporting him. Chris hit the ground hard on her knees and embraced Eliza, crying madly. Jim grinned as he saw Chris close her eyes and kiss the top of her head and then pulled away, cupping the young girl's face and talking to her. He then saw her look up at him. She then shot up and hugged him tightly too.

"Oh God, thank you Jim, thank you." She whispered too upset to talk normally.

"HAHAHHA!!! STREET!!" Hondo shouted running up as well hitting him on the shoulder.

Jim chuckled slightly.

"Anything broken in that body of your's?" T.J asked smiling.

"Don't think so." Jim answered smiling.

"Well your going over to that ambulance anyway just in case, come on." Hondo said pulling his other arm around his neck and helping T.J help Jim walk over there. Chris followed her little girl in her arms and her chin on her head. Deke laughed and gave Jim and black high five as they passed him.

Jim sat on the bumper of the ambulance his head back against it and sighed as the paramedic cleaned out his cuts and checked for anything broken. Fuller walked up to him and Jim said or did nothing but roll his deep eyes up at the man.

"Didn't think you'd pull through." Fuller admitted.

Jim continued to look at him.

"Bet you're disappointed." Jim said, having balls to say that to him.

Fuller only smiled at it and then patted his shoulder hardly before walking away. Jim groaned in pain thanks to Fuller who hit a cut on his bicep. He saw Boxer in the distance talking to T.J and Deke, Deke, as normal, laughing loudly. He turned his eyes to the right and saw Hondo talk to Velaskis.

Suddenly he felt small arms around his waist. He looked down and saw Eliza hugging him, her eyes closed and a small smile on her face.

"Thanks for saving my life Jim." She said softly.

Jim laughed.

"Well you are very welcome Eliza. Just remember if you ever need anything, I'll be here to protect you. It's my job to protect everyone in this city, but I got a special eye on you, ok?" Jim said putting his right hand on her head and looking into her eyes.

Eliza revealed a large smile, showing her teeth and shook her head telling Jim that she understood.

"Alright." He answered smiling and took his hand off of her head.

Eliza continued smiling as she turned around just in time for Chris to turn up. Chris gently placed her hand on the back of her head.

"Can you wait for mommy in the police car hjia?" She asked softly.

Eliza nodded and then disappeared around the ambulance. Jim fixed his eyes on Chris who held her eyes on her daughter until she entered the car and then she moved her glossy eyes on Jim.

"Not a scratch on her." She chocked out.

Jim nodded.

"Good." He said softly.

Chris nodded in agreement and then squatted down.

"Jim, words can't express how much I am in your debt." Chris began.

Jim held his hand up stopping her.

"Sanchez, you're not in my debt. You're my partner, I gotcha." He answered.

Chris shook her head no.

"No, don't give me that partner bull shit Jim, you coulda died in there saving my kid. A ceiling fell on you for God's sake! Jim, that wasn't a deed of a S.W.A.T. officer, that was a deed of a hero." Chris said interrupting him.

Jim sighed.

"Well giving you and Eliza a lift was a bigger deed than this. You wasted my gas." Jim said smirking causing Chris to laugh weakly.

She then smiled at Jim, thanking him for making her laugh in this hectic position. Chris stood up and was about to walk away but Jim then grabbed her wrist and yanked her down on his lap.

"You know, there is something now that I think of it." Jim said looking at her smiling.

Chris looked in his eyes, slightly worried at what he was talking about, money? A Car? The list was numerous to her. Jim continued looking in her eyes.

"How about one of those date things?" He asked.

Chris smiled and laughed relived and shook her head yes, making Jim smile.
