Re: Dumpster Fire
I get out and grab the supply line, a hydrant wrench, and a spanner wrench and run to the nearest hydrant which we parked right in front of. I hook up the supply line and screw it on with the spanner. I open the hydrant the same-named wrench and yell.
"Got water comin' to you now!! guys. COPA, we have what you would call a fully involved garbage fire. "
I grab another crosslay and wait until the water pressure gets up and movs a considerable way forward and start to spray.

Re: Dumpster Fire
I get back in and yell, we good? Hannahan says, yeah, go for it. I pull up to the alley and stop letting everyone out.

Re: Dumpster Fire
I keep spraying the fire and when it starts to retreat, I move forward till i'm almost over it. I stop and put the hose down quickly and start to move garbage to get to the fire below it.
"Man this smells bad."
I find more smoke and a bit of fire and pick up the hose and start spraying again.

Re: Dumpster Fire
I hold my breath and rustle some more through the garbage and find a small flickering light (am I going to fast. If so I could make up something to make things longer) and start to spray that too.

Re: Dumpster Fire
Naw, that's what it'd do in real life. Anyway, I put on my gloves and rip out some card-board and object that were in the dumpster. Oh look, a cigar. That guy should be arrested...

Re: Dumpster Fire
haha. I finish spraying the dumpster and the smoke goes out.
"Alright..that should be the end of it. Let's put this stuff away. Lieutenant, fire's out now. And all the garbage is still in the garbage so I'll start cleaning up."
I uncouple the couplings on the hose to drain it out and put the couplings back together.

I get in the driver's seat, take off my helmet and put it on the dash and shut the lights and take a sip of Gatorade...
