“Please! Please don’t leave me!” beg Adeline as the sound of the fireman’s footstep slowly fades away. She was trapped in her room, for the door was block by a large burning wood that had fallen from the ceiling. The fireman was going to try another way to save her.
The fire rage around her and was suffocating her with black smoke. Just as she could stand no more and had lost hope of ever seeing tomorrow again, the window of her room burst open and a figure was seen climbing in. She looked at the fireman through the smoke that was filling the air and was trying to figure out what he was trying to tell her. But, she was at the end of consciousness and had plunge into the world of darkness just as she felt she was flying through thin air.

The fireman was slowly making its way through the burning house when he heard someone calling for help. He quickly went to the place and had found that the door into the room was blocked. However hard he tried, he could not open the door. “Stay calm and keep your head down. Don’t breathe in too much smoke! I’m going for help!” He called out to the child.
He went out and had found the window of the child’s room by the side of the building.
Columns of smoke were rising from the window. They then used a crane to hook him up to the window of the apartment.
“The Building is going down, hurry Ryan!” called out his friend as he went up.
He was just in time to save the little girl, but not enough to put a safety belt on her as the ceiling collapsed. The fireman cradles the little girl in his hands and jump out of the window. A deafening roar was heard when the building collapsed. The little girl slipped out of his hands when he jumped out, andfell into the blue sea below...
“No!!!!!” cried out Ryan as the little girl slipped from his hands and was falling through air to her death.
(The apartment was by the sea)
He quickly loosens his safety belt and plunge into the icy cold sea. His eyes hurt when he opened it to scan the dark green waters, and had finally spotted the little girl slowly sank into the dark world below. “Please don’t die!” his mind kept screaming as he pull the little girl towards the surface.
As he reached the shore, he was exhausted. He tried his best to save the little girl, but no matter what he did the little girl would not breathe. A few seconds later, the paramedics arrived. They quickly gave her emergency medical treatment, but, after a while later, they stop what they were doing. The girl was gone, they could not save her.
“Why!” screamed Ryan, as he sat by the body of the child, “Why her?” And he buried his head in his hands.
