Scene: Rey slides to a stop just before the trail leads through some trees. As she does, she activates a button on her wrist, and what appears as the trail continuing into a forest, becomes a shear drop off of a cliff. Before Aiko can realize what has happened, she is falling off the cliff. As she screams while falling, Rey activates more buttons.
-
-
Rey: Please don’t hate me Aiko, but this is the only way.
-
-
-
-
-
Scene: As Rey continues to push more buttons, the scene switches to Aiko falling. But all of the sudden her suit becomes rigid, pulls in and then out again. When it does there is a dense webbing between arms and legs, which starts to slow her descent. Then a helmet forms around her head and the visor closes.
-
Rey: That should slow you down.
-
-
-
-
-
Rey: Never liked heights, but this should be fun.
-
Scene: Rey then activates her helmet and then jumps off the cliff, with arms and legs tucked to race down towards Aiko. As she catches up with her, she activates her webbing and slows to match Aiko’s descent.

-
Aiko: Are you crazy?! Are you trying to get us both killed?!
Rey: I’m sorry Aiko but this is the fastest route.
Aiko: The fastest route to our deaths?
Rey: We’re not going to die; you’ll have to trust me. Just let the suit take control. It’s program to take us to our destination. Don’t fight it, just go along for the ride.
-
Aiko: Don’t fight it? Don’t fight whaaaaaaaaaaat?
-
Scene: At this point the suits take over and begin to glide them down along the cliff towards the river. As they near the river, they start to descend into a cave.
-
-
-
-
Aiko: Not the cave! Not the caaaaaaaaave!
-
-
Scene: As the suite flies Aiko just above the water, realizing that maybe she won’t die after all, she starts to take in the scene, a smile comes to her face.
-
-
Aiko: I think I like this.
-
Scene: Hearing Aiko over her comm, Rey smiles to herself.
Rey: Just wait. It gets so much better.
-
Scene: At the end of the tunnel, the two of them shoot out over a waterfall. The suits then spin them upward, and then fall down to shoot past the waterfall.
-
-
-
Aiko: WhooHooo!!!
-
-
Scene: Below they skim over a lake, which then feeds into a river.
-

-
-
-
Scene: They follow the river through the forest until they come to an opening.
-
-
-
Scene: At this point the suits turn vertical and extend their full webbing. A small parashoot eject out of the small box on their backs, and they come to a skidding stop. As their helmets retract back, Aiko yells out…
-
-
-
-
Aiko: Whoo!!! What a rush! Let’s do that again!
-
Rey: Maybe another time. But right now we have to move. We only have a couple of hour left before our world explodes.
-
Scene: The two then take off to find the challenge they must complete to receive the energy module.
