A child prays



Dean was a ordinary firefighter whom at one time laughed, joked, played, and had fun with everyday life, but when him and his wife split up he went from ordinary to a loner. When station 49 would get together for their daily meetings and the others would be joking and having fun; Dean on the other hand would be in another room by himself caused he blamed himself for all that has happened between him and his wife. One day while he was at station 49 a fire call went out and their long tones and the wailing of the fire alarm all sounded and all the fireman including Dean all got their gear on and got into Engine 14 before communications even paged out the call. Dean was the chief of the fire department, so he was the driver of engine 14 and he heard communications calling over the radio "Station 49 fire and rescue need you in route to 127 Mckinney Lane a report of a fire at the residence calling advising that a neighbor made the call, and no reports of anyone in the house at this time, but a blue 1998 ford Tauraus was parked in the driveway". Immeidately Dean knew that it was his wife and he also knew that his kid was going to be their if she was, so Dean answered back to communications "Engine 14 enroute to 127 Mckinney Lane can you advice on getting me mutial aid with anyone close in the area". Dean could hear communication come over the radio " Attention Anyone in the area I need you to respond t o 127 Mckinney Road Authority of 199." Dean was afraid that as he pulled at the scene which only took 5 minutes after being paged he could see huge orange reddish flames coming out the back of the house he jump out of engine 14 and ran to the front door. Dean didn't even bother to knock he just took his foot and kicked the door in as he did his fire boot sole was melted onto the door because the door was intense with heat. He ran into the living room sweating not just from the intense heat, but also because he didn't know wether anyone was there, or not, or was anyone alive. Dean couldn't see hardly anything as he made his way to the hall and made a right to the kitchen he called out to his wife. She yelled at Dean "Dean I'm in here in the kitchen I don't know what happened, but all the sudden I heard something pop and felt like I was trapped. Dean told his wife " not to worry that he was going to get her out, and asked if their son was in the house". She told Dean " our son is upstairs in his room asleep, and I couldn't get to him cause I can't see". Dean was listening to her screaming at him as he made his way to the kitchen and grabbed what appeared to be a hand. Dean told his wife "come with me and I'll guide you out then I'm going back in to find our son". Kathy trusted her husband and took his hand as Dean helped guide her out of the house. The heat felt more intense than it did before and Dean noticed off the left from the hallway he could see smoke coming in, and he now feared that his son was more in danger than before because he was on the top floor. As he guided his to the living room and now for the first time they was beginning to see a bright light Kathy was getting scared caused she gripped his hand so tight, but Dean squezzed her hand tighter that made Kathy feel more secure as they headed out the door.
