A Little Braver - 71

So here we are... are you ready? This chapter was a beast to write. I had to do so much research to try and write things as close as possible to credible. I also took inspiration from an episode of Chicago Fire. There’s action and is a multiple POV switching back and forth to cover as much as possible.

And... I am sorry for the end... 

CW: mention of burn victims, high rise inferno, panic, language.

On the way to the fire Aelin was on the radio with Dorian who was advising all five units the access areas and where to deploy upon arrival.

She looked behind at Brullo and the man was worried too. He was the only one who had been in a high rise fire. Since some of the historical ones a lot of laws had been passed and the safety and checks in place had become far more strict. On that day however, it looked as if something had gone wrong. Horribly wrong.

They arrived not long after and Nox and Ansel parked the vehicles as ordered. West, south north and central followed soon after and the five captains guided their teams to a very stressed Dorian.
