Mcgreggor:"Chief, Engine 2-1 here!" (Unit-Position on unit.)
Chief:"Mcgreggor, glad to hear from you, whats the situation?"
M:"It's bad chief. Really bad. As in Black smoke and I think I just heard something explode...kind of bad!"
C:"Are you...inside?"
M:"Yes! I'm inside the factory, fifth floor, window B, I'm heading to the window, I have a civilian with me and we need a ladder...NOW!"
C:"Tower 3 is on the job, they are changing the ladders position, just hold on for about five more seconds!"
M:"We need it faster! The floor is gonna give!"
C:"Run for the window! the ladder is up!"
As the civilian climbs onto the ladder, the floor gives out, with Mcgreggor on it.
Mcgreggor some how survives falling five stories, he does know that he hit something soft, 'it felt like a bed...' was his description.
C:"Are you OK?!"
M: "Fine, hit a bed or something, I think I'm on the bottom floor."
C: "Yeah, you are, we have you on heat sensors, turn to your right 90 degrees and walk, you will find the door to get out that way."
M:"OK, I'm moving, slowly, but still moving."
C:"Good thing your alive, you should have died from that fall, but for some reason, someone put that bed there."
M:"PLEASE, not ANOTHER 'saved-by-the-savior' speech!"
C:*chuckles* "That gets to you that bad?"
M:"Only when you have 'em every five seconds."
C:"Hahaha...I'll stop for awhile then."
