I know this is EXTREMLY short but that is why I put two chapters up instead of one. haha!


Fire broke out everywhere catching the dead wood on fire instantly. Smoke quickly filled the room as the team sat up coughing trying to get some air. Lioness shielded her eyes from the heat and managed to see Paine jump threw the near window followed with his two lackeys. The crackle and popping of wood and fire filled the air as the team stood up looking for a way out.

Suddenly beside them some dry wood exploded sending deadly shards in all directions. Lioness could feel her Flesh being burned but she only looked for one thing ignoring her pain, Shark. She raised her arms and protected her face from the intense red flames and saw the ceiling beams above them crash down. She screamed and jumped away from a beam that had snapped right above them.

She felt her head spin but her heart raced as she saw a beam fall right next to Shark covering him in sparks. Through the smoke her lungs burned as she made her way to sharks' side. Sweat covered her ashy face as she knelt beside him. Axle and the rest rushed forwarded but where stopped short by another ceiling post.

They couldn't get to her through the flames and she motioned for them to get out as fast as they could. That was the only thing that they could do at the time, so with regrets the team ran out of the burning warehouse leaving Shark and Lioness behind. Lioness pushed Shark on the back trying to awaken him, but he just laid there when she started to pick him up hanging his arm over her shoulder. Shark groaned as the movements felt like torture. His eyes became clearer as he weakly looked around the glowing red room.

"Let's get out of here," he heard Lioness say over the crackling of wood and flames.

Shark grunted and they rushed out of the room. Half of the warehouse was now on fire engulfed in Paines fury. They made their way through the door when they looked through the once dark hallway. It was a tunnel of fire striping the wood and turning it to ashes around them. Shark managed to hang on at a jog throughout the ware house.

Ashes stuck to his soft hair as the heat pummeled their faces making it harder for him to concentrate. Pains new touch drained every bit of energy and had a lasting effect upon him. Every step grew heavier as he started to slip off of Lioness' shoulders. She quickly grabbed and adjusted him, she was worried for she was almost dragging him out of the inferno.

Shark could only see the fire as he pushed his body to the limit, he just wanted to rest. Lioness quickly evaded the sparks and splintering wood when she came to the door leading to the cars. It was on fire and the handle was twice as hot as the flames surrounding it. She narrowed her eyes and kicked down the door.
