Bab 35: Chapter 35

Horror filled Gunner as the moment the vine tore and Sofia plummeted.

The jolt almost dragged off him the ledge. He moved quickly to pull up the rope; he just wasn't fast enough. Kitty, who'd managed to somehow claw her way to safety on the other side of the hole, roared when the makeshift rope snapped.

He almost yelled too because he knew Sofia couldn't swim. If she didn't die in the fall, she'd drown. He didn't even think twice.

"I'm going after her. See you at the bottom, Kitty." Gunner dove off the edge.

The chance was strong he'd die, especially if the water was shallow. If he didn't die pulverized by rocks, then he could still drown, especially if he lost his way under the water.

He could get eaten. Monsters lived everywhere, and all of them had a taste for human flesh.

Or he might finally get a decent break and find Sofia before she sank and get them both to shore.

Luck, don't fail me now.
