Sirens sounded from the Ambulance in front of the heated Beamer they were in. Ben drove the car through the lines of vehicles that pulled up to the snowy curb when the drivers heard the Ambulances alarms cry into the afternoon atmosphere.

Abigail held Louisa close as she calmed herself. Tears were still formed in her eyes but they had stopped falling down her cheeks. How ever they were moist and uncomfortably raw. Both Abi's and Louisa's Cheeks were wet but Ben's were dry, he had needed to concentrate before they left and had no time for the water works. He was there and ready to help.

"Help! Please!" Louisa rushed out the room as fast as her feet could carry her, nearly falling onto the tile floor in her hurry. Tears poured down her face more than they had all day.

"Help? Help me!" Both Mr Gates and Miss Chase ran into the front hall with anxious looks upon their features as they heard Louisa's pleas for aid.

"HELP!" After screaming the last word she fell to her knees sobbing into her hands. Gentle hands grasped her shoulders firmly to stop her body shaking in shock. She could feel both Ben's and Abigail's eyes piercing into her; she knew they were concerned and curious but she couldn't help being annoyed with them. How could they be with her when her brother was unconscious in the next room, cold and clammy, not breathing. They didn't know.

"Louisa?" Abi's voice was a soft whisper.

"Riley," Louisa chocked out her brothers name in a rasping sob, while Abigail exchanged a quick glance with her fiancé before Ben turned around and headed for the room Louisa had come out of.

Abi stayed, no matter how much she wanted to follow Ben, holding Louisa in a comforting embrace.

Ben entered the lounge at a slow pace but soon ran as he saw Riley's still body lying on the couch.

Kneeling down onto the floor in front on the settee that Riley lay upon. He checked his vitals; response of pupils, no; breathing, no, heart beat, no.

NO. He couldn't leave; his best friend couldn't leave. Ben was scared, Ben Gates was actually petrified. His best friend.

He pulled Riley gently to the ground after pushing the settee further away from him to give himself room.

Softly but hurriedly he pushed Riley's head back with the side of his palm, pried his mouth open and checked to see if his airway was clear, yes.

Hastily Ben placed his mouth over the younger beings and blew; lifted his head away; checked Riley's chest had risen; mouth to mouth again; blew; head away; chest raised and 15 decompressions to the bottom, middle of his chest. He pushed Riley's chest with all his power, putting all his weight into recovering his best friend.

Still no breathing.

Two more resuscitation breaths.

15 more decompression pumps.

Two more breaths.

15 pumps.

"1"

No

"2"

No

"3"

No

"4, 5, 6, 7 8 ,9"

No, no, no, no, no, no.

"10, 11, 12, 13, 14"

No, no, no, no, no.

"NO!"

"15"

The last of the 15 pumps Ben heard a crack of a rib. SHIT!

"YES!"

But it was worth it as Riley took in a rasping breath. A hoarse inhalation, but a breath.

A smile crept upon Ben mouth as he helped the younger man before him sit in an upright position to help his lungs inflate. The smile faded as he saw Riley's eyes flutter shut.

"Riley?"

Panic rushed back into Ben and he could hear his heart pumping in his ears but he once again smiled as relief streamed back to him as he saw the chest calmly rise and fall. He let out the deep breath he was holding as he laid Riley back onto the couch and became alert to his surroundings as he heard sirens call outside. Abigail must have called '911'.

Abi sat on the cold floor clutched Louisa close and rocked her slowly, saying comforting words. She couldn't take. One minute and she already left Louisa on the ground alone, but Louisa wouldn't stop moaning her brother's name.

She got up and walked into the room that Ben had entered not two minutes ago. She halted as she saw Ben on the floorboards with Riley lying in front of him; not breathing.

Thoughts rushed through her mind as she twisted around running to the phone as first as she could, but it all felt so slow. Time slowed down, she had heard stories about when under pressure or panicked time seemed slower and she had even experienced it before on the hunt for the long lost treasure of the three Mason's.

Finally she reached it, the phone in her grasp. She hesitated before she dialled the number. 911.

A minute passed as she hastily spoke to the operator, but finally the women said "There is an Ambulance on its way."

Abigail was about to enter the room again when she heard Ben say "3" under his breath and the sobbing of the 31 year old kneeling on the ground.

Making up her mind in a second she fell to the ground next the younger women and held her to shear her comfort.

This time the clock flew by as Abigail heard the Ambulances sirens outside.

"That was quick" she muttered under her breath but not that she was complaining.

Paramedics knocked at the door and Abi left Louisa's side once more and rushed to open it saying only three words, "He's this way."

Two men and a women hurried into the room after Abigail and jogged over to their, for now on, patient.

Ben and Abigail stepped back and let the doctors do there job.
