Flames

there they came without a minutes waste and climbed up the ladder into the devils fate. they sprinted fast here and there trying to save a soul from the death bed, i saw him climb up into the window a feeling of anxiety on his face. a small childs cry amongst the flames black clouds everywhere. without wasting a second even to think he goes away, he hears a faint cry again and again. splints falling on his head plasters from the wall here and there. the crackling of the flames the devils cry obstacles everywhere. her cries grew faint fainter with time he lost hope but still held on, time was less a second is precious he calls for her but to na avail. he opens a door with all his might and met a sight which forced him to carry on. there she was lying a little girl of 10 in an unconscious state her body bent, her face was pale milky white he could hear his own heart beating with plight. he took her down an angel she was. he took her to safety with a risk on his hand but he didn't care as he thought he saved another one with happiness on his face and a glow of a true hero he went to meet her the life he saved, but there she was lying covered with a shroud. tears running down his face that is the life of a fireman bearing all the consequences between life and death
