What timing! As he spoke a blanket of sunlight washed over the peaks, illuminating the far slopes of the Nereidums and some of the tallest of the nearby boulders. My breath caught.

“Look!” he pointed at a jagged one in the middle of the hardened lava river. The light had reached just its tip, making it look like a flame, like a giant candle, surrounded by shadow, “Come on!”

Taavi jumped off the rock, looked back up and me and grinned, then turned to run.

No way was I going to let him beat me! I bounded from the rock and crunched after him. Wow, did it feel good. Alive! I hadn’t felt a rush like that since I was child.

Taavi was fast. But so was I. I caught up to him in just a few seconds, but couldn’t push past. We ran next to each other for a moment. I could feel the sand and rubble under my boots, and then nothing.

I grasped for something, anything to hold on to, but all I found was Taavi as we both dropped into a pit of darkness.

Ares!

Was that Taavi’s leg I had landed on? He pushed me off of him, and I heard him curse under his breath, then, “A-are you okay, Emory?”

“I don’t know,” it was completely black except for a dusty crack of light above us. I clicked my light on and checked the pressure gauges on my suit, “Get up! Let me check your suit,” I ordered. The realization of what had just happened released a swarm of insects in my gut.
