The Split

Chapter 11. Not Easily Broken Part 2

"Captain Griffin someone will have to be brave enough to manually do it."

The train was honking there horn for us to move.

"Captain save the man from the car, I'll go switch the tracks manually."

"Alright crew y'all heard Lenn. Get to sawing him out the car." I ran as fast as I could down the tracks making sure I didn't hit the third rail. The train was coming fast and my heart was beating faster. Don't fuck this up Mariah I said to myself. I made it to the lever pulling it as hard as I can the opposite way. The lever was hard as fuck, so I used all my strength to pull it. That's when you heard the tracks moving to the other side then the train flew passed me. It honk it's horn I guess to say thank you. I ran back to the crew.  

"Good job Lenn." The captain said to me. We dropped the man off at the hospital. Then we went back to the station.
Getting into the station I hopped off the truck when the crew clapped for me. 

"Nice work out there Lenn"

"Good thinking Lenn."

"Glad you're on the night shift buddy."Buckley smacked me on my ass.

"Thanks guys"I'm finna have to watch Buckley ass. Cause don't be mad when I treat you for smacking my ass goofy bitch. I said to myself. I to my locker to look at my phone. Tommie had texted me back to say she fell asleep. She had smoked her kart all night when I left and she had k.o. I just shook my head giggling at her. The fire alarm sounded off real loudly again.

[118 We have a pregnant woman in stressful conditions. Boyfriend forgetting the food in the oven and now the apartment filled with heavy smoke] The dispatcher spoke over the speakers.

I zipped up my fire fighter suit, putting on my helmet then ran to slid down the pole heading for the fire truck. I got in putting on my seat belt. The captain turned on the lights and alarm, we headed to the couple's apartment. Getting there it was thick smoke coming from the apartment's windows. We got closer and hopped out the truck.

"Crew I need the ladder up to the window and then I need the rest of you to alert the other residents to get out the apartment building." The captain told us. We ran inside the building knocking on doors. To get the families out of there. We made it to the 6 floor with all of the smoke filled apartments. Still making sure no other families were in their homes. Then proceeded to 609 apartment that was Smokey. Knocking down the door, we was able to enter into the apartment.

"Miami FD is here." I yelled out nobody has responded. The other fire fighters said the same exact thing. We heard coughing from the back bedroom. "Miami FD is here." I said louder. "We in here!!" A male voice said. The crew rushed to the room that the male voice came from.

"My pregnant girlfriend is unconscious she needs medical attention please help me."

"Step out of the way sir." My partner had said to him.

"We need a garney, face mask and neck brace." I said to our paramedics on the walkie talkie.

"Sir you need to head downstairs away from the smoke." I told him.

"I'm not going to leave my girlfriend."

"Sir we need as much space as possible to get her out of here. Plus you also need to be checked out by our paramedics team as well." He stated crying. The lights were flashing on and off in the apartment he must tried to put the fire out with water. And damage the circuit breaker. Which caused the electrical fire.

"I'm not leaving her!"

"Sir this is not up for a debate." I told him.

"Lenn let's just work around him as long as he is not in our way. We good."
