The eldest girl steped up into the light towards him. The howling baby in her arms, Spectrum helped her up ,she was silent, the entire group looked shoock. He peered back into the darkness of the hovel. He offered his hand to the young boy, gesturing for him to aproach but he would not. He stood at the very back, as if he was afraid.
Spectrum lowered himself into the hovel. Getting onto his hunkers he illuminated his hands casting a dim light from his hand. It light up the darkness. the boy had a deep gash on his forhead. After several moments, he tooks spectrums hand who allowed him to guide him out of the hole.
The remaining buildings were crumbling around the city gradually.
"Wev got to get out of here" Spectrum mumbled to himself. The children hudled by one another. While Spectrum thought of ways to get them out of the dangerous city.
"Come on." he said. He gestured for the elest girl to gove him the baby who continued to howl. It was a horrifing sound that peirced his ears. He offered his other arm to the boy, who after some encouragement form the elder girl clambered aboev his hip. With th children in his arms, spectrum looked down at the older girl.
"Ill be back in five minutes, you stay here. Okay?" He nodded. The girl did not speak she still seemed to be in shock, from whatever had happened to them.
With that Spectrum took flight. he couldnt go to fats, he had to keep the children safe. the young boy whimpered as they left the ground, afraid of heights it would seem. the baby continued to scream in his ear.
After several minutes Spectrum landed. there were emergency aid workers doing their best for the citizens who had been cuaght up in the ordeal. He Placed the boy onto the ground, a young lady apraoched him taking the baby, and the boy by the hand
"Thank yuo so much for your help, its...Its just.." She didnt get time to finish she was being called by some poeple who neede attention. With that Spectrum took off againn, flying faster then before he was at the scene were he had left the girl before in seconds. but she was not there.
Spectrum stood puzzled. He looked around before taking flight to scan from the air. She was no where to be seen. Spectrums searching became more frantic. He began to panic, shouting out for the girl. It was then that a massive chunk of building fell from place and smashed the surrounding area with dust and debris. Crashing into other buildings it caused a chain reactiona dn soon the entire area was covered in dust and smoke as the buildings collapsed ontop of one an other.
Spectrum shot into the air. turing his arm into a search light he tried to clear the dust.
Gun shots rang out in the distence. There was a scream and then all was quite.
