"Oh god..." Camille said taking a slow deep breath in as she struggled to let it back out, leaning into Brooklynn once more.

"We're going back..." Darius mumbled before he yelled out, "The monorail's going back!" his words were cut short as the monorail took a sharp turn knocking everybody around with the sudden movement,

"What do you mean, 'going back'?" Brooklynn asked as she moved Camille's frail body towards Yasmina who cautiously took her,

"It hurts..." Camille painfully groaned while clenching her jaw, Yasmina looked down at Camille with sorrow in her eyes knowing she couldn't take away any pain she was feeling,

"After Brooklynn did her best to examine you we don't think it's broken but most definitely bruised, the glass broke most of the fall painfully enough, but...everything's going to be okay..you're going to be okay.." Yasmina assured Camille while rubbing circles on the girl's shoulder before Darius screamed out,

"We gotta get off this monorail now!"

"Oh! T-The track dips down up ahead! We can jump there!" Brooklynn pointed outside the shattered window to the track as Camille gave an uncertain sigh glancing down at her new injury, She could barely breathe on her own let alone jump from the train thinking about how swollen and bruised her knee was looking when she tied it up down at the lagoon.

"What?"

"Jump?"

"We can't! It's too far to jump!"

Everybody argued about the decision, it was too risky. But it was the only option they had,

"It's the only way!" Darius called as everybody made their way towards the gaping hole in the window, waiting for the moment to jump as Darius began to slowly count.

"One..." Yasmina cracked her neck as Sammy whimpered,

Two..." Kenji adjusted his grip on Bumpy as Camille sighed in pain,

"..Three!" Darius let out a shaky breath, "Now!"

Everybody screamed as they all took a leap of faith, flying through the air before gravity pulled them down each one of them landed harshly on the ground. They rolled down a hill before individually slamming into something stopping their movement instantly.

Brooklynn had landed on top of Darius.

Kenji had rolled into a large root from a tree, Sammy the same.

Yasmina rolled into a tree while Camille smashed her back into the tree,

"Is everyone all right?" Darius said as Brooklynn rolled off him, allowing the two to sit up as everybody moved towards the two,

Yasmina inched over to Camille who felt she was struggling to breathe more than she was originally.

She onto her knees, gripping the grass as she felt tears burn in her eyes while Yasmina crawled over quickly before covering Camille's mouth as she attempted to scream but ran out of air immediately,

"Camille? Are you okay?!" She said, alarmed at the girl's state before a hand latched onto her wrist.

Camille held onto the girl's wrist while hiding her face in the corner of her other arm trying to find a way to get air in her system. She couldn't form any words, trying to take deep breaths yet the pain was too much as her breathing came out in choked sobs and wheezes.

Her grip around Yasmina's wrist began to loosen. Camille's harsh and painfully deep breathing began to slow down to nothing but short and quiet inhales as this alarmed Yasmina, Camille's body tipped over as she fell onto her side.
