Chapter 13: Fire

*Jasper Pov*

I saw the flames before I saw the house.

What did he do?

I ran to the house and saw his car was still there, that means he is inside.

"Dad!" I screamed, I ran to the door and kicked it open.

Smoke started pouring out of the house, burning my eyes.

I pushed myself to move, I went in the house and searched for him.

I was shocked when I saw the rest of the house, almost everything was in flames.

Memories from my childhood, the good memories.

Burning away to nothing.

I pushed myself faster, I have to find my dad.

"Dad?!" I called again, "Jasper!" I heard his voice faintly, I ran to the stairs, they were caving.

But he was upstairs. I had to save him.

I got half way up the steps when they caved and I fell almost fully back to the first floor.

I threw my arms out to the side to catch myself from going all the way, if I went all the way down I was trapped, and there would be no way for me to get out, or to save my dad.

I cried out in pain from the sharp edges cutting my body as I tried to pull myself back up.

It was hard, I wasn't that strong, but spending time with Alice's brothers helped me get stronger, considering they were ten times my size.

And since they found out I was abused they have been trying to help me learn to fight for myself, helping me with self defense and other things.

It took a few minutes but I finally pulled myself out of the hole that was now in the stairs and climbed to the top.

I looked back in shock, then recovered and ran to my dads room, his leg was pinned under his huge bookcase.

The thing was nearly twice my size and weighed a ton.

He was trying to get free but it was too heavy, even for him.

"Dad!" I ran to him, "get out of here!" he yelled at me.

He pushed me away, not in an abusive way, but more like a parent would do to try to keep their child out of danger.

In that moment I saw a small glimpse, just a short flicker, of my dad, my old dad.

The one I knew before the abuse started.

I knew I couldn't leave him.

I would get him out of here, even if that meant I sacrificed myself in the process.

"Hang on, I'm going to get you out of here."

Ok now I had to think fast.

His leg is pinned and the house is burning.

I got an idea, but I needed something...

The bat!

I ran to my room and pulled up a loose floorboard, I pulled out my old wooden baseball bat.

I hid it from dad so he didn't get any ideas.

I turned and ran out to the hall, before I got to the door a burning piece of the ceiling landed in front of me, barely missing me.

I moved around it and ran back to the room.

I put the bat under the bookcase, but it wasn't enough. I needed something else.

"Ummm" I looked around, I saw a small metal box in the corner, I grabbed the box and pulled it over. The hot metal burned my hands, but I ignored it.

I made a teeter totter with the box and the bat.

I pushed down on the bat with everything I had and the bookcase lifted off his leg slightly, "dad come on, I can't hold it for very long" I screamed.

He looked at me and for a brief second I saw confusion in his eyes.

Of course he was confused, I was saving him after all he did to me.

I had to.

He may have hurt me both physically and mentally but he is still my dad, that means something to me.

I had to do this.

He pulled his leg out just as the bat snapped. I ran to him and helped him up.

We both heard a crash and our heads snapped to the door. "come on we have to get out of here" I said.

I noticed his leg was injured very badly, I put his arm around my shoulders and led him slowly to the stairs, supporting most of his weight so he didn't have to walk on his leg.

We stopped at the top of the stairs, and I froze.

They had completely caved in. "crap" come on Jasper think fast. I thought to myself, then I remembered.

"Come on dad" I helped him to my room and opened the window. The fresh air rushing in and relieving us from the smoke temporarily.

It was amazing how you can notice something in tragedy but you never even acknowledged it before, such as having clean air to breathe.

I shook my head, I had to focus on here and now.

I was suddenly happy I watched all those survival shows while I was in the hospital.

He leaned on the wall while I stripped my bed and pulled the mattress off the frame.

I pulled it to the window and pushed it out. It landed right under the window.

"Dad you have to jump" I said, he looked at me like I was crazy. "dad trust me! go! I'm right behind you" I said, I was making him go first, I wasn't going to give him a chance to stay behind and face death out of guilt.

He looked hesitant but he climbed out the window. He jumped off and landed on the mattress, he landed on his other leg, his good leg.

I looked out and saw a bunch of the neighbors.

Felix ran to my dad and helped him get away from the house, then he looked up at me. "Jasper come on!" he yelled.

I could hear sirens faintly and knew help was coming.

Then I heard a voice I didn't want to hear. "Jasper!" I saw Alice and her family run over from their car.

I climbed up on the windows ledge.

I was about to jump out when I remembered something, I ran to my closet and pulled out a box, it had pictures of all of us together.

It also had the last thing my mother gave me before she died. Something I couldn't lose.

I ran back to the window and threw the box down to Alice, she caught it and Emmett pulled her away from the house as part of the siding fell, it landed right where she was moments before.

I heard something close to the sound of a groan, the house was caving, I knew it was.

I had to get out of here, now.

I heard the noise again and climbed up on the window ledge, but before I could jump something hit me.

I fell back to the floor in my room.

I couldn't move.

I couldn't see.

I couldn't even breathe because the smoke was too thick, even with the window open.

After a few moments everything started fading.

I saw a figure appear at the window right before I lost everything.
