A/N – So I failed to write something yesterday again… but here is a little one for today!
Prompt – He ran, hard.
Scott ran, dodging between firemen and paramedics seeing to the victims. His leg hurt like hell, the second explosion had knocked his hover scooter over on top of him, but that wasn't going to stop him running.
Because the second explosion had also come from the building Gordon and Alan had been working on clearing, and their comms weren't connecting to Mobile Control anymore.
"Virgil!" he barked into his wristcomm as he ran. "Do you have eyes on Gordon or Alan?"
There was a pause and Scott had run several yards before Virgil answered.
"Not right now. I'm heading back to the building."
"FAB. Me too."
Scott cut the link and continued running. It hadn't seemed like that large an area when they had first arrived, but now that he was running, as hard as he could, it felt like miles between the two buildings.
The now empty building that Scott had cleared of its three victims. And the second building, with its seven victims and Scott's little brothers and an unexplained explosion.
As Scott reached the open door, he saw Firefly trundling towards him, Virgil pushing it to its highest speed. But he didn't wait, he ran into the burning building.
His feet pounded against the solid floor, sending pain shooting up his leg, but he did not stop running, calling for Gordon and Alan.
He could not stop running. Not until he caught sight of the dirty white IR fire suits.
His heart skipped a beat as he noticed the destruction of the room, and the two solitary figures. One was slumped against a wall, a beam pinning him to the floor, and the other was crouched beside him, trying to lift the beam.
Scott ran to their side, immediately reaching to help Gordon lift the beam.
Alan grinned and gave him thumbs up as he gingerly got to his feet. They were both ok. Neither were seriously hurt.
Scott could stop running, and finally let his injured leg crumple beneath him.
A/N – Well, that sort of came out ok… let me know your thoughts :)
