Charger growled as Drakko slowly walked tordwards him. He tried giving him a punch when he helped him up, but pain shot trough his entire body when Drakko turned his arm. Charger screamed out a painfull roar that echoed all trough the valley and went along with another crack of the dam.
When Drakko let go, and the Dam shook and collapsed a few feet again, Charger didn't immediatly notice what had happend. He had lost balance himself and fell over again, staying clear of his arm this time, but still badly injured. When he looked up he prepared for a charging Drakko, but he found himself alone. He looked around, Drakko was nowhere to be seen.
'No... Drakko...' he mumbled as he suddenly realized what must have happend. He got up with some trouble, and slowly made way to the edge of the dam. As he got there, Drakko just said goodbye, before letting go.
'No! Don't!' he yelled as Drakko fell into the depths. 'Drakko!'
He hurried over to a railing that seemed well enough in order to hold him, and leaned over it to see what happend to Drakko. But by the time he got there, he couldn't see him anywhere anymore. The only thing he saw was spurting water from the dam walls, falling debree and a city about to be torn apart by millions of littres of water.
He stood there for a small moment, trying to see if Drakko would float up or show any sign of life at all. But that would be unlikely no matter what the case...
He sighed, then turned around and wanted to wander off, getting off the dam before it fell.
Right then, a huge burst was heard. Louder then any of the others and at the same time an entire portion of road vanished right before him, leaving a huge hole of nothing between him and the way to savety. The entire thing shook, rubble was flowing down the river beneath him and crack were appearing all over the place.
'Hang on... Uber dam... hang on...' he nervously mumbled as he prepared for a leap over the gap. He ran... he jumped... and he nearly missed. He managed to get to the other side, but with one broken arm he didn't get quite as far as he thought he would.
As he tried to climb up, the thing collapsed another few feet, almost giving Charger a heart attack.
When he finnaly got back up, he scurried to his feet and made a run over what was left of the dam, holding his left arm with his right. Behind him, everything that could be destroyed was now seriously collapsing. More water was bursting trough the crack, up untill the point where it was more like a huge waterfall.
If Charger would have to venture a guess, he'd say the dam would hold for a minute at the very most, but he should be to savety by then. In the distance he could see the gang grouped up on the other side of the dam. He tried his best to keep running, although the fight seriously exausted him. And to make matters worse, he tripped over a crack, when he was less then 50 meters from getting off the dam.
Pain shot trough his leg, as he tried to crawl further. Now with an unusable arm, and an unusable leg, he did something he never thought he'd do...
'HEEEEELPP!!!!'
