I'm about to reach the top. I swing my arm up to grip upon another part of the gate. "A-almost.." I grunt. I fling another hand up. Damn it, no. That attempt fails, and I begin to lose my grip. No, no, no! I fall down.
(Everyone is mortal, they don't realise whats going on xD)
Suddenly, there is a thud behind us. I look around, and see the girl on the floor. I stagger over to her, trying not to fall over, to see if she's alright.
