Another aftershock shook the ground but it didn't deter the determination of the miners who are continue digging inside the tunnel, this time they no longer run outside for safety instead they pressed on forwards breaking new grounds and they went deeper and deeper into the collapsed tunnel with their common goal to reach the location of the trapped miners as fast as they can.
Thankfully there is no more aftershock and earthquake in the next thirty minutes.
...
While in the trapped miners location...
Unfortunately, the soil was now up to the trapped miners' shoulder. They can almost smell death entering their nostrils. They looked at each other with despair and tears in their eyes.
"George, are you okay?" John asked his bodyguard.
"I'm already dead boss," whispered George in a low voice, he already resigned to his fate.
John closed his eyes and prepared himself for the worst.
