Chapter 113: Mission complete

Time seemed to stop for Aries as she reached her hand out, only to clasp the air. The tree wasn't that tall for Aries to die from the fall, but it could hurt and break a few of her bones. But that didn't scare her. 

Amidst falling, her eyes dilated from shock. Somehow, this unprecedented fall made her recall the taste of falling from grace. Just like this one, she was simply falling, sinking deeper to meet with the ground. 

'No,' was what came into her mind before time started clicking at its normal pace. 

CRASH!

Everything happened so fast that Aries couldn't prepare for her landing. Thankfully, Dexter was there to catch her, albeit he also stumbled down and ended up being her cushion.
