"[F/n]?! Luffy?!" An echoed but familiar voice calls into your slumber, slowly pulling you awake, your eyes sore from all the grit sprinkled across your face and your voice still stifled by an immense pressure on your chest. "Damn! Who else is still inside?!"

Zoro, please help me...

"Sabo, I've got to go get him! I--!" Ace's shaking voice reaching your ears, followed by Robin's, the raven-haired lady urging him to stay back. "They're my brothers! I can't just leave them in there!"

"I've turned off the power," Kid's voice cutting in, the redhead sounds a little breathless and you're still unable to call out for them, your hands trembling as you try to lift the large metal framework from the factories roof off of you but it's far too heavy and you're not in a very beneficial angle regardless. "The water pipes have burst and there's electric cables everywhere so I thought I'd get cut the power before anybody gets zapped. 

We aren't insects, Kid!

"C'mon, somebody help me look for survivors, there's a few people missing!" Zoro's voice reaching your ears again, followed by the sound of metal being shuffled around, a few tears rolling down your cheeks.

It hurts... 

"Yeah, yeah, sure!" Kid's gruff voice blaring out once again, his footsteps going the opposite way to Zoro's and closer to your position. "Just be careful with what you touch, one wrong move could make the building cave in even more!"

I'm scared...

"Hey..." A quiet voice catching your ears, followed by a slight shift, your orbs landing on Drake. Honestly, you've never been so relieved to see this jerk in your life, a smile painfully struggling it's way to your lips as you gasp out an incoherent response. "I-It's okay, it'll be okay..."

The brunette comforts you by reaching out his hand, his fingertips barely brushing against your dusty cheek as he squirms a little underneath the rubble that's piled on top of him, a small hiss leaving his lips.

The noises seemingly catching Kid's attention as he comes rushing over to the older male. 

"Hey, Drake! C'mon, let me--"

"Don't touch it!" The brunette barks, clear worry lacing his tone, his blue eyes staring up at the redhead pleadingly and it's only in this moment you notice the metal pipe sticking out of Drake's side, covered in blood. "I'll be fine, just get [F/n] out of here!"

He's bleeding! Is he going to be alright?! We can't leave him here! The building could still collapse!

The brunette gesturing to your direction with his index finger as he attempts to catch his breath, only managing to choke up on some blood in the process, spitting it to the side as he grunts in pain.

"Damn it, man!" Kid making his way over to you and trying to lift some of the metal framework but it's far too heavy for him, his muscles bulging as he only manages to raise it a mere couple of centimetres before he loses his strength and drops it down on you again, making you release a pained yelp.

THAT DAMN IDIOT!!

"Oi! Don't hurt her!" Drake calls out only earning himself a grumble as Kid frowns, the redhead thoughtfully chewing on the inside of his lip. 

"I can't lift it!"

Yeah, my ribs gathered that much, you stupid asshole!

"Have you called anyone?" Drake's voice sounding a little lighter now, like he's barely managing to stay conscious, your eyes gluing themselves to the piece of metal impaling him causing his blood to pool onto the dirty ground.

He's not going to make it, he's gonna bleed out!

The mere thought of such a thing threatens to bring tears to your eyes as you feebly try to inch yourself closer to him, unable to do so due to the portion of the roof that had you pinned to the floor. 

"Yeah, the fire brigade and police are on their way! Honestly, we're not meant to be in here--"

"Then get out." Drake grumbles, the agony he's feeling is very evident in his tone as he takes a weak and shaky breath, his orbs trailing over to the other side of the room. The roof has collapsed over there too, you can barely make out what part of the factory that even was before the incident. "S-Sabo should be over there somewhere...Get him and leave." 

"Alright, just shut up!" Kid's more gruff attitude kicking in as he sends the injured brunette a glare, straightening himself before he begins to trail over to Sabo's apparent spot. "Stop talkin' when you're bleeding out like that! You wanna die?!"

Harsh as ever but at least he cares...in his own way.

"Alright, I got Luffy!" Zoro's voice ringing in your ears as he comes padding down the metal stares of the factory, they're absolutely covered in dust and rubble but somehow still in tact, the greenette carrying the passed out raven over his shoulder. "You found anybody?"

How did Luffy get up there?

"Two over there but they're stuck in place." Kid responds grumpily before pushing a large piece of metal aside. "And found this one too." The redhead brutally taking a grip on Sabo's waist before throwing the blonde over his shoulder, his free hand still rustling through the pieces of the ruined building. "I think they're still missing someone out there named Sanji."

All that earns is a click of Zoro's tongue followed by an irritated; "Of course." before he makes his way to the gaping hole in the side of the building. "I'll come back and help you look for him in a second, I gotta take Luffy outs--Why're you carrying Sabo around like that?! Drop him off and come back!"

I feel like the world's dumbest men are helping us...this is not very reassuring. 

"Found your friend with the eyebrows." Kid grumbles, his free hand taking a rough grip on Sanji's collar and dragging him across the floor to the huge hole that's now being used as a doorway. "Maybe when we've dropped these two off outside, you can help me lift that frame, your friend is stuck under it."

Honestly, by this point, I think I'm better off being stuck here... 

Your orbs immediately find their way back to Drake, uncontrollably watering when you notice how pale his skin has gone and how his eyes have fallen shut, he doesn't look as if he's even breathing anymore.

"Drake," You just barely manage to push the name past your lips, your eyes streaming with tears as you stare up at the male's face, heart clenching in your chest when he doesn't respond or even move. "Dr-Drake!" 

By this point your voice is merely a croak, the brunette's eyes slowly opening, you can see it takes him some effort though. His gaze slowly drifting to you as he let's out a hoarse hum. 

"Please, stay awake! Th-They're getting help!" Your voice still sounds rattly due to the amount of grit you've inhaled, your body trembling as you desperately try to shift under the rubble, anything to get yourself closer to him.

You might not always like the guy but he isn't a bad person at heart, you want him to know that.

"Stop...stop panicking..." His voice is barely audible and his eyes are falling closed again, his hand reaching back out to your face and gently stroking your tear-soaked cheek, a half-smile playing on his bloodied lips. "It'll be fine, now stop squirming so much, it's not good for you..."

Why do you still give a shit about me, stupid man?! Look at your own injuries!

"Then keep your eyes open!" Your voice beginning to shake as your warm tears stream rapidly down your face, some even wetting Drake's hand and causing him to sigh quietly. "Th-That's our new deal! I'll stop stressing i-if you keep your eyes open!"

Please!

Zoro and Kid making their way back into the factory and positioning themselves on either side of you, gripping onto the metal frame before beginning to lift it together, your streaming eyes still resting on Drake though. 

You just can't bring yourself to look away. Scared that if you do, he'll disappear. 

He's looking right back at you but there's no expression on his face, the brunette still taking weak breaths and the skin of his hand beginning to feel cold and clammy against your cheek.

"Please! Stay with me, Drake!"

The heavy weight finally being lifted from your pained ribs as Kid and Zoro manage to lift the framework enough for you to crawl out, which you're quick to do so but instead of leaving the building you rush over to Drake, your eyes following the pipe that's sticking out of his torso to find that it's attached to large piece of rubble that you can't possibly move without causing further injury to the brunette's wound.

"C'mon, [F/n]! He'll be fine, help is on the way!" Kid's words going completely ignored as you shake your head, your hands cupping Drake's cheeks and causing the brunette to frown.

"Get out of here...it's still fragile, i-it could still fall down and crush you. Leave."

"No," A stubborn smile just barely managing to make it to your lips as your thumb gently strokes his grit-coated cheekbone, you hope that the heat of your hands will help warm him up, you're fully aware that isn't how it works but you're so desperate right now that you're willing to try and convince yourself otherwise. "I'm not leaving you here like this, in this dirty building...you're freezing cold..."

The sirens sounding in the distance and causing you to smile as one of your tears drips down onto Drake's chest as you hover over him, silently praying for him not to die, your heart feeling painfully tight in your chest as you press your face to the fluffy collar of his jacket in attempts to muffle your cries.

"They're almost here! Just hang on a little longer, Drake!"

Please, don't take him from me...
