But she stopped in her tracks when she heard Bette’s anguished scream of “Help!” Mentally debating, she stood still, glancing at her front door and then over toward Bette and Tina’s house. Hearing another desperate sob from Bette, Jenny made her decision.
“I’m coming! Hold on, Bette!” she shouted, dashing across the yard toward Bette and Tina’s, trying to ignore the flames creeping up the side of her own house.
Shane and Carmen were more than halfway up the tall, winding, rickety wooden staircase when the world around them began to tremble. Carmen grasped Shane’s arm tightly as she was thrown sideways.
“*****! We’re closer to the top than the bottom. Go up! Move! Hurry!” Shane shouted, pushing Carmen forward ahead of her. Parts of the ceiling were falling around them and crashing to the ground below, creating large piles of rubble with large boards sticking out.
They had nearly reached the top when Carmen stumbled, falling to one knee.
Shane got in front of her. “Get up!”
“I can’t!” Carmen sobbed. “I think I hurt my foot.”
Shane took the last step up and reached the second level to try and get a firm footing on the wobbling floor as she leaned down and firmly grasped Carmen’s sweaty hand. “Come on, Carmen, just make this last step,” Shane urged, trying to sound positive as she gave Carmen a little tug, helping her stand up slowly.
Carmen smiled slightly and lifted her uninjured foot, placing it on the last step. “Shane, I’m almost there.”
She was cut off from saying anything else by a sudden rumble. Shane watched in terror as the staircase beneath Carmen’s feet began to crumble, almost in slow motion. Carmen’s eyes went wide as she felt the stairs give way below her. With a terrified scream, she began to fall, but Shane tightened her hold on Carmen’s hand, keeping her from falling to the debris-covered ground below.
The force of the sudden shift in Carmen’s weight sent Shane tumbling face-first to the floor. Smacking her nose on the floor, she blearily raised her head up, her head ringing and blood dripping steadily from her nose. Still, she managed to somehow maintain her iron grip on Carmen’s hand.
