Chapter 60: Safety First

Shantelle woke up, choking at the feel of the smoke entering her lungs. When she opened her eyes, she was shocked to see the vapor slip through the door.

“Shanty! Shanty, where are you?” She heard Evan call. He was coughing and calling out her name, making her realize he was close.

“Evan! Evan, I’m here!” She called. Tears

welled in her eyes, realizing the danger she was in. She forced herself up and punched the door with her fists, calling out to Evan repeatedly. “Evan! I’m here! Help me, Evan! Help me!”

“Shanty! Shanty, is that you?!” Evan called. ” Move back! I’m going to kick the door open!”

“The fire is getting worse, Sir! The fire extinguisher is running out,” Shantelle

heard Miguel say behind the door. Then Evan began to kick through the door again and again until the door gave in.

“Stop using the extinguisher. Let’s use it for when we take Shanty out!” Evan instructed.

After entering the room, Evan rushed to Shantelle. He wrapped her in his coat for

protection.

Before blazing through the fire, Evan had soaked his coat with water while Miguel

found a fire extinguisher. Evan used his

jacket to cover Shantelle as they walked

through the hallways where the fire had reached the ceiling.

Miguel, in particular, had used up the last contents of the extinguisher to ensure

Shantelle did not get burned as they exited

the hazardous area.

Evan loomed over Shantelle as they ran out, protecting her with his frame. She heard him scream repeatedly, but she did not know

why or have the time to assess the situation.

Finally, when they got out, they were met by police officers. They readily covered them

with a fire blanket.

More and more help arrived. It wasn’t just Shantelle who was trapped inside the

building. Some guests had used the

bathroom or lingered further in the west

wing, failing to make it out before the fire worsened. A report also came in that one

victim had died in the fire.

Shantelle, Evan, and Miguel were rushed to Warlington hospital. Shantelle only had minor burns on her legs, thanks to Evan shielding her, but Miguel and Evan suffered second and third-degree burns on their arms. After the extinguisher ran out, they had apparently used their arms to clear their

passage.
