Oh, My God!

Jo took the stairs two at a time, "Zoey, Kevin!" She shouted. She had been in the kitchen when the ground had given a great shake. Her feet had failed her and she had a wound on the side of her head from the corner of the counter to prove it. She didn't know how long she had been out but she had to find the kids.
Making a quick turn in to Zoey's room she came to a complete stop, Zoey was laying on the floor, a been a cross her and Kevin on his knees at her side. "Zoey." Breathed Jo as she dropped to her knees, quickly she lifted the beam and tossed it off of her. "Are you okay?" She asked Kevin gently as she touched his shoulder.
He nodded Solemnly, "Zoey hurt." He told her as, as he rubbed Zoey's arm.
Jo nodded a bit, "Zoey, can you hear me?" She called as she gently shook her shoulders.
Zoey's head began to move from side to side. "What the fuck fell on me?" Cursed Zoey, first and for most, opening her eyes gently she looked at Jo and Kevin. Slowly she took Kevin's head in hers, "you okay little man?" She asked softly.
Kevin nodded enthusiastically, "do you hurt bad?" Asked Jo quickly as she ran her hands along Zoey's legs.
Setting up slowly Jo took check, "my back kinda hurts, but all in all, I'm good." Eased JO as she pulled herself to the standing position.
Suddenly the sound of the front door opening made them all turn, then they heard a call, "Jo, kids. Are you all alright?"
Jo seemed to perk, "Taggert?" She called hopefully. Quickly she stepped to the hall and her eyes fell on Taggert at the bottom of the stairs.
He was at the top quickly. "are you alright?" He whispered. Jo nodded, sticking his head around the corner Taggert saw Zoey, and Kevin "good your alright." He sighed.
Zoey kept a hold of Kevin's as she stepped to the hall, "where's my dad? Allison?" She asked quickly.
Taggert nodded, "Jack's alright, I've seen him, he was heading to Global to find Alli." He explained before he lifted the walkie to his lips. "Sheriff come in Jack." He called.
Taggert! Are you alright?" Called Jack's voice back.
There fine mate, have you found Alli?" Asked Taggert.
"She's okay," came Jack's voice. "All of you need to stay there. Tag, meet me at Global, we got trouble."
