The good luck charm
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!" were the agonizing screams piercing through Rui Yewan's ears as he fell into the dark abyss. He grappled at air as he fell trying to grab the screaming Rui Li's hands reaching out to him. The ear-piercing shrieks almost split his head in half as he fell into the inky darkness.
Her screams soon died down like she had been muted. She was still reaching out to him with a tear-stained face her lips moving in what could be transcribed as a cry for help but there was no sound.
Rui Yewan felt himself regain some strength as he lunged upwards to grab her arm. The free fall he was going through was suddenly interrupted as an inexplicable force pushed him forward to reach out for Rui Li.
But as their fingers brushed against each other and hope loomed over the horizon her entire figure vanished and he began to fall faster than he was before. An overwhelming numbness swept past every nerve ending in his body and for a moment his mind went blank.
