Chapter 115: On Top

Lisa reached the top in around fifteen minutes without that much difficulty. She could have gone up much faster, but she had to find the best and safest route to take for the others. Reaching the top, she took of her coffin and crate and left them next to a fallen log. Returning to the edge she waved down at everyone below, signaling for them to start climbing.

Wayne returned the wave and then nervously grasped a rock hold in one hand. Then taking a deep breath he spoke to the others while pulling himself up higher, "Alright guys, let's do this."

The rusted chain was rather long, so it provided enough space in between everyone for them to climb freely. They had gotten to the point where all five were now off the ground and nothing had gone wrong yet. Gillian, however, still remained watchful from below. Occasionally he called out suggestions and support. It almost looked like a worried father cheering on his kids.
