Detective Peter Pux had always prided himself on being prepared for any situation. So, when the city was hit by a massive earthquake, Pux was ready to take action. Unfortunately, his actions were not exactly what one would call "ideal" or "correct".

As the ground shook and buildings crumbled around him, Pux's first instinct was to run to his local bank and withdraw all of his savings. He figured that if the city was going to be destroyed, he may as well have some cash on hand to start over somewhere else.

Once he had his money, Pux decided that his next course of action would be to head to the nearest luxury store and buy as many designer clothes and expensive watches as he could carry. He reasoned that if the world was ending, he may as well go out in style.

As the disaster continued to unfold, Pux found himself wandering the streets in a daze. He came across a group of people trapped in a collapsed building and instead of trying to help them, he suggested that they should play a game of poker to pass the time.

Finally, as the dust began to settle and the extent of the damage became clear, Pux realized the error of his ways. He felt guilty for his selfish actions and knew that he needed to make amends. He spent the next several days helping to rescue survivors, distribute food and supplies, and assist in the rebuilding efforts.

In the end, Pux learned an important lesson about the importance of putting others before oneself, especially in times of crisis. He realized that true strength and bravery come not from looking out for oneself, but from helping others in need. It was a hard-learned lesson, but one that Pux would never forget.
