"I knew help would come." The man spoke thankful for the group.

"That's right." Eddie spoke from beside Eve. "We're here, we got you, buddy."

"Alright don't move." Eve told the man as buck held on to his neck. "just relax, alright?"

Everyone moved to different spots to carefully move to man. Eve was at his side, Buck at his head and Eddie at his legs.

The three moved their new group mate causing him him to scream in pain. "I...uh I soiled myself." He told them.

"Forget about that." Eddie instructed moving to his feet and removing his shoe and sock. L can you wiggle your toes for me?" But he couldn't abusing Eve to frown.

Buck had slide down the room looking for something to transport the man on and then was followed after Eve and Eddie to tell him what was going on.

"numbness in his legs, loss of bladder control." Buck spoke as they all knew what that meant for their new patient.

"Spinal injury." Eddie nodded. "We got to move him out now."

"On what?" Buck questioned. "We don't have a backboard and every millimeter counts."

"Well then we try to find something." Eve told him looking around to hopefully spot something.

"You see anything?" Eddie questioned as he too looked around.

"Guys." Ali spoke from the spot at towards the front of the room. "What about this?" She questioned holding a ironing board. "Ironing bored." She stated raising her eyebrows.

"Could work, but how are we gonna get him down the stairwell?" Eddie asked looking a his companions.

"Maybe we don't use the stairwell." Buck stated, an idea forming in his head.

NEXT THING Eve knew was she was opening an elevator door in order to better travel down to the next few floors.

Eve along with the Eddie and Ali peered into elevator shaft which was clear of any obstacles.

"At least we're not blocked by any debris." Eddie commented.

"Or an elevator." Ali added.

"Well that would be because it's above us." Eve spoke looking up at the Elevator that could snap at any minute and come falling down on top of them.

"Um, how much do you think that weighs?" Ali nervously asked as she looked at the machine.

"2500. 3,000 pounds." Eddie answered as buck also looked inside the elevator shaft.

"I like our chances." Buck commented.

"Yeah." Both Eve and Eddie agreed looking down at the floor they where wanting to go.

After getting everyone ready for a decline down a potentially deadly adventure down an elevator shaft, Eddie went down who the man they had recently found. They had secured Batari onto the ironing board with rope and a couple towels so his head would sit as still as possible.

Buck Eve and Ali all watched as the pair went down, waiting for their turn.

"How you feeling?" Buck asked Ali.
