Luckily, Raegan had thrown on a long shirt and pants over her pajamas for ease, so she didn't look too out of place while running.

She hadn't gone far when she heard the soft cry of a child. It was so faint, nearly drowned out by the surrounding chaos.

But ever since becoming a mom, Raegan had grown incredibly attuned to the sound of children's cries. She stopped and realized the crying was coming from a distant building.

That building... Raegan's face fell. A young boy lived there, left with his grandmother while his parents were away for work. The boy's grandmother had trouble moving, making escape seem unlikely.

The threat of a mudslide loomed closer from behind.

Raegan thought of her own child, Janey, hesitating only for a moment.

But the boy's soft crying tugged at her heart.

Determined, she tapped one of the guards on the shoulder and yelled, "Go ahead without me!" She knew she couldn't ask anyone to risk their lives saving others with her.

After she spoke, she dashed toward the crumbling house.

The two guards didn't think twice and followed her. They were quick to act, busting the door open even before Raegan could take a step.

Inside the boy's house, darkness enveloped everything, yet the sound of his crying was unmistakable and clearer.

One of the guards flicked on the lights, revealing the boy's grandmother lying on the floor unconsciously. Beside her, a little boy, about four or five years old, was crying, draped over her.

Recognizing Raegan as a kind-hearted figure, almost like an angel to him at this moment, the boy pled between sobs, “Please... Help my grandma..."

Raegan didn't waste a moment. She gestured for the guards to take the boy's grandmother out first.

Then, she went over to lift the boy.

As the guards carried the boy's grandmother quickly outside, Raegan, picking up the boy, noticed his feet caught up in something.

On a closer look, she found a rope entangled around his feet. She pulled out a self-defense knife and began sawing through the rope with determination.

Meanwhile, an ominous noise grew louder and louder.

The boy trembled, voicing his fear, "I'm so scared..." He was worried that Raegan might leave him behind. He hadn't seen his parents in ages. The thought of dying scared him...

Raegan sped up and comforted him, “Don't worry. I'm right here with you!"
