Again guys, I own none of the content sourced from The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
Cody Martin lay on the floor of the demolished cinema, having been thrown across the room by the explosion which had just taken place. Cody was in excruciating pain across his leg and stomach, and a visual assessment revealed a fairly badly broken leg, and there was a steady stream of blood coming from his midsection, courtesy of shrapnel wounds in his abdomen. The cinema was full of smoke and the screams of terror and horrific moans of the injured filled the air. Cody eventually came out of a daze, and whilst he was still in horrible pain a far more terrible thought, what had become of Maddie and London, and, even more desperately, Cody had no idea what had happened to Zack. Cody was now desperate to get up and find Zack, he needed to know, but he was feeling faint, and with his broken leg it was incredibly difficult for him to move. Eventually Cody began dragging himself across the floor, but due to the smoke and the fact that he had been thrown from his seat, coupled with the fact that the layout of the cinema had now significantly changed he was finding it difficult to get his bearings to find where Zack was. "ZACK, ZACK" Cody began to yell, but there was no response, this just made Cody even more desperate to find his twin, and so he began crawling with more and more urgency, all the while in horrible pain and loosing blood at a rapid pace. Cody was just thinking 'I have to find Zack' over and over, whilst calling for his Twin, he had blocked out the twisted and painful screams of the others around, who were mostly calling for help or preying to god. After crawling for about a minute Cody came across a gruesome thing, as he crawled down an aisle, under the smoke, he crawled over something soft, something warm, but wet, he quickly realised it was a human, there was blood everywhere, it seems this poor soul had suffered a head wound of some kind and had died, Cody hoped he hadn't been in any pain. Cody still wasn't able to see who the victim was though, and he began to position himself closer to the corpses face, all the while preying to god that it wasn't Zack who lay there dead on the floor, Cody had never been more relieved in his entire life when his hand found a beard on the dead body, it wasn't Zack, and Cody continued his search. "ZACK, ZACK" he called again, "Zack, where are you", he couldn't be far away from him. Cody was feeling faint, even more than before, he realised that he was loosing blood too quickly, and if he didn't do something about it he would die before he ever found Zack, and Cody couldn't comprehend any situation in which the twins would be separated from each other by death. Cody took his shirt off and began to survey his wound, for a shrapnel wound it was fairly clean, there was remnants of metal which had pierced his abdomen, probably causing internal injuries, Cody knew all he could do was to stop the bleeding, and so he tore a piece of his shirt off and, despite the pain it caused, he stuffed it into the wound, as a kind of plug to stop the bleeding. With his bleeding stemmed at least temporarily Cody continued his search for Zack, after crawling probably another 10 meters he found his brother, slumped against a wall, they had been sitting not too far from the wall, and Cody figured the blast had probably thrown him down that way, Zack was bleeding badly, but, there was a slight moan of pain coming from him every few moments, this told Cody that despite Zacks obviously serious injuries, he was alive. Cody moved quickly up to Zack, "can you hear me buddy?" there was a slight moan, "c'mon Zack, it's Cody, you can do it, you're the bigger, stronger twin, if I can survive so can you" Cody was pleading now, with tears streaming down his face. "HELP, please someone help me!" Cody screamed into the area, but his cries were lost in the similar cries of the 50 or so others who had been in the cinema at the time of the explosion. "C...Cody?" Zack finally seemed to be coming around, Cody's face lit up. "yes its me, I'm here for you Zack, I'll never leave you" Cody was filled with a feeling of hope, he knew deep down somewhere that each twins presence and life would keep the other alive in the time. Cody noticed suddenly that Zack was bleeding from a wound to his head and another in his chest, and he quickly tore more strips off his shirt to use and bandages, Cody knew they needed to get out; the building could collapse at any minute. Also now playing on Cody's mind was a need to find London and Maddie, he knew that he shouldn't walk on his leg, but he also knew Zack wouldn't be able to carry him, even if he could walk at all. "Zack, do you think you can walk?" asked Cody,
"Yeah, yeah I'll try, we need to find London and Maddie Cody, where did they go?" was Zacks reply
"To the bathroom, we'll head there now."
Zack managed to gingerly get up, as did Cody, the adrenaline running through his veins subdued some of his pain, but he could only walk with a severe limp, as his left leg was broken. The Twins kept down low and tried desperately to find the back of the Cinema, so they could get out and start their search for London and Maddie.
"I love you Zack, I'm glad your alive, and I'll never leave you, not for the rest of time" Said Cody, with tears in his eyes again, Zack also began tearing up and hugged his brother as best he could, "I love you too bro, you're my best friend and my brother, I'll never leave you either, I don't wan to think about what might have happened to London and Maddie but with you still alive I know I'll have someone I can turn to".
OK guys, well there's chapter 3, the next chapter will probably end up being shorter, and will be similar to this one, the difference being that it will be London and Maddie, and not Zack and Cody who are the focus. Don't think the drama is over though guys, there's still much more to come! So stay tuned, and keep the reviews flowing and keep reading.
