One of them was wearing a pink coat and leaning on the shoulder of the other
girl. Wesley couldn't see her face clearly and was not sure if that was Blair.
Even though he had not seen her for a long time now, his heart told him she must
be Blair.
Wesley scanned his surroundings. It wouldn't be easy to get to her. The current
of the flood had developed whitecaps, pushing a mass of deadly debris with it. If
the current didn’t catch him, the debris would surely crush him, carrying his
battered body away.
He called two rescue workers over, who were busy saving Miller and his
colleagues. In ten minutes, they were at his side. They also saw the two girls.
One of them shook his head.
“We can't get there. The going is too treacherous. You don’t want to get caught in
that. Let's wait a bit for the rain to let up. That might let things slow down and
you'd have an easier time of it.”
Wesley's eyes darkened.
“Wait a bit?" he asked.
“Yeah. It's courting death if we try to get to them.”
Wesley's eyes were as cold as ice.
“Don't you see that they don't have much time? If we keep waiting, they'll die of
exposure.”

“But the place they are-*
Before the man could finish speaking, Wesley took the rescue equipment away
from him and told the other rescue worker, “You! Come with me!”
“Yes!”
With a bullhorn, the man instructed the girl beside Blair to fasten the rescue rope
to the big tree.
Blair seemed to have passed out. She Lay huddled up on the rock and didn’t
respond to their requests.
The girl took the rope hesitantly, but with some prompting, she tied the rope
around the trunk. A little more instruction via the bullhorn, and she had the
clamps and carabiners fastened. After the rope was secured, Wesley and the
rescue worker fastened their harnesses to the rope and made their way to the
rock, suspended above the roaring floodwaters. They'd set it up that way so they
wouldn't have to be caught in the current; they'd be hanging above it. They
inched closer and closer.
Excited, the girl pulled Blair's arm and yelled, “Hey, wake up! We're being
rescued! Boo...hoo We're safe now.”
Upon hearing that, Blair struggled to open her eyes and saw a rope tied to the
tree near the rock. Two people were in harnesses, suspended from the rope over
the surging flood. They were carefully making their way to their position. The rain
was still heavy, and her eyes were blurry.
She couldn't see their faces, but she was sure the man in the front was
Wesley.
