Chapter 4 – Unresolved Issues
"Why not?" said Sarah shocked.
"You stole him from me!" yelled Yai.
"Who?" said Sarah becoming really confused.
"Who do you think?" said Yai.
"I don't know who you're on about," said Sarah.
"Chaud!" yelled Yai.
The pair stood in silence for a few moments.
"Before we continue this conversation," said Glide from Yai's PET, "May I suggest that we take Sarah's advice and leave the building?"
"No you may not," said Yai, "We will resolve this here and now."
"Fine by me," said Sarah, "After all, if the building collapses then I stand the best chance of surviving."
"Not if I use you as a shield," said Yai.
"Two things," said Sarah, "One, you won't get very far if you try, two, I thought this was about me and Chaud."
"There is no you and Chaud," said Yai, "Chaud is mine!"
"I hate to burst your bubble Yai," said Sarah, "But Chaud has the right to make his own decisions."
"Like I care," said Yai.
"You can't just buy Chaud's affections Yai," said Sarah, "For a start he has more money than you."
"I wasn't thinking of buying them," said Yai, "And I wouldn't have to if it wasn't for you!"
"Tell you what," said Sarah, "We'll have him decide when we get out shall we? Now let's get out of here." Sarah began to walk off.
"Why do you get the fire blanket?" said Yai running after Sarah.
"You really want to see what I look like after braving that fire?" said Sarah, "I warn you, it isn't pretty."
"Trust me," said Yai, "I'm already as disgusted as I can get with you."
Sarah pulled one of her arms from under the blanket, where the skin hadn't burnt off her clothing had melted into the skin.
"I stand corrected," said Yai looking horrified at Sarah's arm, "Put it back under please."
Sarah put her arm back in the blanket.
"The rest is worse," she said, "The material we use for my skin is more flammable than human skin so although you'd have suffered bad burns mine just burns straight off or melts."
"Yeah," said Yai, "But you don't feel pain."
"Don't I?" said Sarah, "I do but I can ignore it."
"You're in pain?" said Yai.
"Agony," said Sarah, "But enough talk, we have to reach the fire escape."
The pair walked carefully back to the left fire escape, when they reached it Sarah turned to Yai.
"Turn around Yai," said Sarah. Yai obliged and found her face covered by the blanket.
"Believe me," said Sarah, "The moment I open this door the fire will get worse."
Sarah picked up Yai and moved carefully through the flames avoiding the hottest areas, when she reached the door she pulled up her foot and smashed it into the door and ran out as the fire behind her grew due to the sudden increase in oxygen. She had almost made it through when a fire extinguisher by the door exploded sending her and Yai over the railing on the fire escape.
