Chapter Twelve

The world around me fell away, and I struggled to focus. Everything came to a crawl and I saw In’ah beside me, holding fast to my chest belt, her face wore a wide smile and her eyes didn’t show a care in the world.

Seconds passed, and I noted with surprise that my overlay had switched on, it was showing my current rate of decent and time until I would hit bottom.

-5463 feet, 33.39 s/ till impact-

In’ah pushed away from me and I watched in slow motion as she moved away and then shot upward. I might have been a trick of the light, but I could have sworn that she waved just before she lifted away.

I don’t know what to do. I said into my head. An answer came in the same instant.

-29.12 s/ till impact-

Force as much power as you can towards your feet, don’t worry about intent, we need to slow down. Might as well use your hands because we have no time to figure this out!

It was odd, it didn’t feel like Sumahon talking, but both of us speaking, thinking, being the same mind.

I pulled deep and forced energy to evenly shoot from my legs downward. I felt an almost unmeasurable change in the speed at which I fell.

-27.01 s/ till impact-

Again!

This time I pointed my hands downward and repeated the processes. I shot upward, but not nearly as fast or as much as In’ah had.

-31.31 s/ till impact-

I was unable to sustain the burst of power, and I noted that my hands had fired off several long beams of power and the mist below cleared around them as they plunged downwards.

There was a large river flowing down there, but it frothed white and didn’t seem like it would be a suitable landing place.

Again!

I pulled deeper than I had ever before and pulled from my base of my power. I let it accumulate before immediately releasing it. I could feel my limbs and hands begin to burn from the collection of power, but still, I waited. Time began to speed up and whatever was keeping my mind sharp began to wane, but still, I waited.

-9.10 s/ until impact-

I could feel the cool air from the river below. The roar of the air around me was filled with another roar from the rapids below.

NOW!

I let the power release. It felt as if my limbs might explode from the force, and I suddenly felt my vision blur as I sped upward. Fog, water, air, everything split before me and after only a moment the side of the cliffs faded from view and I found myself much higher than expected.

Looking down, I saw everything. As far as the eye could see was yellow, brown, and black. I could see a dozen small spots of green, but they seemed like insignificant drops of water in a vast ocean.

My arms, legs, and head fuzzed and pulsed.

-50.31 /s until impact-

I began to fall again. This time I knew what to do, and I did it.
