A crew member approached him, ashen-faced: “We haven't found Mrs. Sinclair... She was closest to the blast
point. The fireball... it just engulfed her. The force was catastrophic.”
“I'm sorry, Mr. Sinclair. The fire team has searched repeatedly. There's no sign of her. We fear the
worst...”
“Impossible!” Alexander's eyes blazed red as he lunged toward the still-exploding set.
“KEEP SEARCHING! I'll pay anything-ANYTHING! My Evelyn is still in there. | need to find her-alive
or..."
His voice cracked. “I need to find her.”
A firefighter held him back, voice heavy with sympathy: “I'm truly sorry, sir. The blast was too intense. The
impact... there may not be any remains to recover.”
Alexander's legs gave out. He collapsed to his knees, fingers clawing at his hair until his knuckles went
white.

“What have I...” A broken sob escaped him.
Tears streamed down his face.
Every dangerous stunt before this, he'd personally verified every safety measure.
Except this one time...
The tsunami of shock, agony, and regret drowned him completely.
