Gradually, she opened her eyes, feeling bruises and discomfort everywhere.
Yet, through the pain, a spark of happiness ignited. She was still alive! Raegan lifted her arm, trying to move the hair blocking her view to take in her surroundings.
At a glance, everything appeared okay, but a closer look nearly scared her senseless.
She found herself in a small hollow partway up the mountain. Directly ~ beneath her was a sheer drop, plunging hundreds of meters down!
Next to her, an old, oversized tire rested.

luck to prevent her from dozing off and falling.

| In her deepest despair, voices echoed | nearby.
"Anyone here?" "Is somebody out there?" "Miss Foster!" "Raegan!" It sounded like salvation! Raegan heard it clearly. It was Mitchel! How had he come here? Wasn't he supposed to be in Ardlens? Overwhelmed with relief, Raegan began to call out, "Mi..." But before she could say more, the
sound of her voice dislodged another stone.
| Raegan was paralyzed with fear, afraid to move or make any noise.
The sounds of the search party calling | for her slowly disappeared.
Panic surged within Raegan. Feeling completely lost, she noticed the vines beside her moving gently. This sparked an idea. She reached out again and this time, successfully grabbed two vines.
Carefully, she tied the vines together and started swinging them. The length of the vines meant even small movements could cause noticeable disturbances on the ground.
Raegan's goal was to catch the attention of the rescuers with these movements.
Now that she glimpsed a chance for rescue, Raegan naturally refrained from recklessly attempting to climb ¢ the vines. Given the vines' exposure to the elements, there was no certainty they would hold her weight.

elsewhere, and Mitchel was considering changing his search spot.

Meanwhile, Raegan, no longer hearing any rescue voices, felt engulfed in despair.
The rain had loosened the soil under her, making her stance increasingly precarious. She realized she couldn't stay put. The ground was about to collapse.
Feeling the vines’ sturdiness in her grip, Raegan decided to act. At that moment, she made a decision and wrapped the vines around her wrist securely. | Placing her trust in the vines to hold
her, she prepared to ascend.
But as she started, a loud noise | announced the falling rocks. \ The earth split beneath her, creating a wide gap.
| Raegan slipped downward, screaming as she fell.
The ground she had been standing on just moments before vanished.
' With no other option, Raegan bit her lip, swayed her body to find footing, and attempted to stabilize herself against the wall.
Though she had seen Erick rock climb, she had never done it herself.
Instinctively, she copied climbing techniques, pushing against the stone wall, and began to ascend.
Thankfully, her light weight meant the
vines could support her.
Raegan climbed with caution, absorbing the discomfort. ) Hope was nearly in her grasp. She was just a few steps from safety.
But then, there was a loud snap echoed.
One vine broke! With only one vine left, supporting her weight seemed impossible.
Raegan's heart raced as she hurried her ascent, ignoring the danger from above.
Then, another snap! The other vine that was pulling her gave way.

hand closed around a rock that was falling.

Their gazes locked, conveying everything without words. Tears filled their eyes.
"Mitchel..." Raegan's voice broke through her tears. She had been
convinced she was about to fall.
Never did she imagine Mitchel would | appear at such a critical moment. \ Mitchel's grip was firm, his gaze sharp and focused on her. "Grab my other | hand." Moving her other arm felt almost impossible for Raegan.
With Mitchel sprawled on the ground, ' pulling Raegan up seemed like an insurmountable task. It was like an impossible feat.
Mitchel's expression hardened as he urged, "Quick!" Tears blurred Raegan's vision as she stretched to grasp his arm.
With a grimace, Mitchel summoned all his strength to lift her.
Just as Raegan felt herself being pulled up a bit, she slid back down.
The earth under Mitchel was_giving way again, sending a cascade of stones down, causing Raegan to slip further.
| The situation was extremely dangerous, made worse by the unstable mountain soaked by days of rain.
Raegan watched as the collapsing area on the ground expanded, her heart turning cold with dread. If this went on, both of them would fall.
Trying to mask her despair, Raegan forced a light tone. "Mitchel, didn't you ask if I missed you?" "Raegan..." Mitchel's voice was rough, laden with urgency. "Stop talking." Conserving his energy was crucial for hanging on until the rescue team
