The only sound that could be heard was that of spinning wheels and smoke bellowing from the up turned coaches engine.

Slowly but surely some of the students and staff started to come in at first a state of confusion, tenpareley forgetting the horrifying crash they had just been involved in.

The muffled silence and confusion soon gave into screams of fright and terror.

Kim Campbell was one of the first to shakingly get to herr feet and was horrified at the site that greeted her.

Once Kim managed to get her bearings and her disorientation wear off a bit more only then was able to pull herself together enough to help.

"Hello? Can anyone hear me? Is everyone alright? Is anyone hurt? " she called out, getting various cries for help in return.

She moved to the person closer to her which was Paul.

"Paul, are you alright? Can you move?" She asked, kneeling down next to him.

"Yes Mrs I'm alright. I think my arm is broke, but apart from that I'm alright." He replied, slowly getting to his feet with the help of his art teacher.

"Ok Paul, your doing great. Do you think you can get out?" She asked.

"Kim!" Adam yelled from the other end of the coach.

"Adam, there's no way out." Kim

told him

"Rachel, where's Rachel?" Adam asked, panic stricken.

"Adam I don't know. There's no way out." Kim told him again.

"I'm going to break the back window." He replied.

"Adam you can't. You'll burst your arm." She told him.

"I have to do something. I just can't stand around and do nothing." Adam snapped in frustration, not meaning too.

All around the coach all you hear was cries of pain and screams of fear. They were just a group year 11's on an of year trip, they weren't meant to be ending up fighting for their lives.

"Kim, are you alright?" Steph asked, as she finished accessing one of the kids.

"I'm ok, in a little shock but other then that I'm good." She replied

"That's good, what's he doing?" She asked, pointing at Adam.

"Trying to find us a way out." She told her.

...

Adam wasn't having much luck with the back window as he stopped to take a break, a very distinctive smell attacked his nostrils.

Petrol

Frantically looking around him, he spotted aa crowbar lying under one of the chair.

Grabbing it, he used everything he had and took a swing at the window but it failed to achieve anything. So he swung again and this time the window shattered.

"Kim, Steph. We need to get everyone off this coach like yesterday, it's leaking petrol." He told them.

Quickly but safely they got everyone off the coach, starting with the walking wounded first then Adam carrying the unconscious out one by one.

"Adam, Danielle Harker and Rachel are missing." She informed him, reading from the list.

Not saying a word, Adam spun on his heels and sprinted by intothe reck.

"Adam, where are you going? The emergency services are on there way!" She yelled after him.

"This thing is about to blow, they won't get here in time!" He called back over in shoulder.

Getting inside the destroyed coach, Adam had to cover his mouth with arm as hthe smoke became overwhelming.

DANIELLE? RACHEL? CAN YOU HEAR ME?" He called out.

No response.

"DANIELLE?"

RACHEL?"

Still no response.

Making his way further down the carriage, he spotted Rachel lying between to rows of chairs coming too.

"Rach, oh thank god. Come on darling we have to get out of here." He told her.

"Oh my head. What happened?" She asked, gently putting her head on her husband's shoulder.

"We were in an accident. Come on that's it." He replied, helping her up.

Rachel didn't get far for as soon as she put any kind of weight on left leg, she cry out in angony.

Gently lifting his wife, he slowly but quickly made his way out of the wreck.

"Oh my god man, sir she's alright, init?" Bolton asked, as he came running over.

"Hopefully Bolton. She will be." Adam replied, catching his breathe.

"I have to go back in." He spoke out loud.

"What? Why?" Rachel asked, panicking.

"Danielle is still inside Rach. Darling I have too." He told her gently kneeling in front of her, taking her face in his hands and kissing her forehead.

"You can't. Help Will be here soon, leave it to the professionals." She told him.

"I can't, it's leaking petrol Rach. She's just a kid, barely lived." He replied softly.

"What about us?" She exclaimed, desperately.

"I love you with everything I am and I wouldn't trade the last 2 years for nothing. I need to do this, please forgive me Rach." He told her as he give her one last kiss.

"It's alright Mrs I'll look after you." Bolton told her.

As Adam walked back towards the coach, it killed him inside to hear to his wife calling out for him and begging him to come back and to pleading with him not to leave her.

Adam got inside the coach again and the smell of petrol was alot more pronounced this and Adam had a gut feeling he wasn't walking away from this one- not this time.

He spotted Danielle a few feet away, quickly making his way towards her and gently picking her up.

He got half way down the carriage and then that's when he heard it- that unmistakable click

Before his entire world turned black.

Back outside all you heard was screams of horror and a devastated wife. Screaming her husband's name over and over again.

The type of screams that pierced your heart and shook you to your very core.

A/N Thank you for all the lovely messages of support and kind words.

But sadly my mum passed away

peaceful in her sleep on the 27th March, taking her last breathe at 3.20am at home with her family around her.

I wanted to continue this story as I want to make my proud mum by finishing it.
