Hi everyone, sorry about the delay busy with school and other things. So read and review.

(Ryan's POV)

I was released from the hospital later that afternoon. The doctor wanted me to stay but I managed to convince them to let me go. It took a little time but I was released.

I was dressed and on my way out when I spotted Horaito sitting on the bench outside of Calleigh's room. His head was in his hands. I went over and sat next to him.

" Are you okay H ? " I asked him. He looked up at me his eyes red from tears

" I just wish I could understand why." he asked. " Just before things started happening before people started dying." he continued " Alexx came up to me with a note saying she found it in the victims pocket." he kept going " it said that my life was about to become hell and I had time to save only one." he finished.

" I think I have an idea on how all this happened but I need to go and sort it out." I said standing up. " I will be back later okay H. You just hang in there okay." I said leaving.

I didn't have a car and there was no way I was going to ask Horaito for a ride so I just walked to the ruins of the lab.

When I got there my heart broke into a million pieces instead of the usual busy lab buzzing with people there was no more lab. Instead there was no more lab just what was left a few walls and debris everywhere. My ears rang with mixed shouts of frightened people rescue and sirens of plenty.

I was a lucky one for sure. I got out with a headache and broken wrist but some people who never did anything wrong were seriously injured and may never recover and there was a lot of people dead.

I saw Frank standing by some rubble. I guess I was happy to see someone alive I started to run. I was almost to him when I tripped on a piece of metal sticking up from the ground. I hit my wrist I winced in pain. I closed my eyes and when I opened them again I was looking into the cool brown eyes of CSI Samantha Owens. With a small yelp I jumped off of her.

I quickly dug her out of the rubble. I checked for a pulse. I felt a faint buzz under my fingers. Frank was standing by me when I called for rescue. They quickly rushed her off with the many others to the hospital.

" Wolfe what are you doing here?" he asked. " Horaito pulled you out of the rubble 4 hours ago and you're already back on your feet?" he said

" I am fine Frank. Just some cuts and bruises." I said to assuring him I was okay. " But what I do need is to know where the bodies you already found are." I said.

He looked at me and sighed he just pointed to the row of bodies in bags about 20 feet behind me. " There marked with the victims intails." that was all he needed to say.

I walked to the first bag it read A.W. I knew those letters stood for Alexx Woods. I took a deep breath and unzipped it. People were supposed to look peaceful when they're are gone Alexx just looked hurt. I just couldn't look at her anymore I zipped the bag back up.

I walked along the bags until I found it. The bag marked N. B. V. I just couldn't do it. I couldn't do it. I couldn't lean over her. Pretty soon I opened the bag. Tears filled my eyes when I saw her. Her face was touched by fire. Half of it was a dark burn but her perfect lips were untouched by flames. I leaned down and put a long loving kiss on her lips. I couldn't believe the love of my life was gone. How was I supposed to move on without her. I needed her.

I zipped the bag back up and started to cry, I dropped to the ground and hugged my knees.

Then something caught my eye. It was a white piece of paper torn and stuck on a piece of metal. I picked it and tried to read though my tear filled eyes. I read the words. The exact words Horaito had read hours earlier.

Okay what a chapter so depressing. The next one will be a little cheerier. Please review. One thing I forgot to mentioned. I wrote this story if the morgue was the bottom floor of the lab.
