TAUT - Through Fire - Part Two

Eek! It's finally here!

I am so sorry to keep you waiting for so long! Literally, I feel so badly!:( I just had no time to go to the park until yesterday.

Okay, anyway, back to TAUT!:D In case you need a refresher, which I bet you will, here's the link to the first part- LINKEDY LINK LINK

Dmitri sat with her eyes shut, her simple plan running through her brain. She tried to think of every possibility, every kink in the road that might occur.

"Gee, it's smoky!" Chris coughed as she gazed outside the helicopter.

"That's what fire produces," Dmitri stated, having to shout over the noise of the helicopter.

"Great, thanks! I totally forgot!" Chris replied sarcastically.

Logan sighed and stared at the spreading fire beneath them.

"I wonder what caused a fire that water doesn't stop? Maybe a science experiment?" he wondered aloud.

"I'm guessing a science experiment that went rogue. That's usually the case for us!" Dmitri guessed.

"Okay, we're gonna propel the rope ladder down now! We'll wait from the air until you're done!" Sara shouted over the noise. Chris snatched off her glasses, since she only needed them for close up, she would rather be free from them for the mission. Dmitri, Chris, and Logan climbed down the ladder and landed in a circle that was free from flames....for the time being.

"Okay, I got the stuff." Logan handed the spray to Dmitri.

"Great, let's get this over with," Dmitri coughed. She began to mist the air all around them, then stepped closer to the flames and sprayed repeatedly at it.

"That should be good for now, we have to wait for the chemical to make its way through the fire," she told them and sat down on the wet ground, as far away from the flames as she could.

Chris and Logan mimicked her and also sat on the ground.

"The ground is soaked! They must have used tons of water!" Chris exclaimed as she dug her fingers into the wet dirt. Dmitri nodded. A nauseating smell filled the air and Dmitri gagged. It must be the spray. She felt the taste of metal in the back of her mouth and scowled.

"Mmmhmmmm uhmmmMmmm?" Chris mumbled something, but Dmitri only heard mumbles. Breathing in the putrid air, her eyes blurred and her head fogged over.

She scrambled up, desperate to escape the unconsciousness she knew was grabbing at her. Not again! She thought. Dmitri heard two dull thumps as Chris and Logan's head hit the ground. Clawing at her last strands of consciousness, Dmitri's world went black.
