Chapter 38 Mina Falls into the Water
Mandi threw her arms skyward and the flesh exploded, reforming themselves into giant pincers. With all her hate she swung them downwards, intending to crush the two, but something struck her in the abdomen, knocking the wind out of her. She took a step back and lost her footing. Looking down, she saw that Alder had thrown himself into her. She slipped backwards and the two of them fell over the edge of the precipice. As Mandi plummeted down alongside the waterfall, her struggles and screams died out until she was completely immobile and silent, a look of bewilderment on her face. Before her eyes all she could see was the image of the young couple kissing.
Her lips silently spoke, "Impossible," then there was a terrible crash as she struck the water.
With some difficulty, Ryin pulled himself to his knees and dragged himself over to the edge and looked down into the water below. "Wow, that is really high. You know she's not going to be in the sequel."
Athel and Alder began snickering and laughing.
"Okay, very funny, now let's do it for real," the director ordered.
