Upside Of Falling Novels & Stories

With a deep breath, I pushed the window open and swung my legs over the ledge, my heart pounding in my ears. The drop was terrifying, the ground rushing up to meet me. I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the impact. But instead of hitting concrete, I landed on something soft - a pile of garbage bags. The fall was cushioned, and I landed without injury. I looked up at the window, my heart pounding in my chest. I had done it. I had escaped.

I jumped up and stood on top of the palace walls. “Yukina, get down from there. You’ll fall.” I put my hand on my hip. I’m a master at this, I can’t possibly fall. I was too confident with myself, as I stepped back, I stepped on a lose roof tile and it slipped under me. I was falling off of the wall. This is so embarrassing. And I was bragging about it too. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain. I felt as if I was caught. I opened my eyes and saw…

Rather than jumping out of the tree in one leap like Elliott had, I took my time and chose my footing carefully. I’m sure I was moving faster than most humans were capable of, but relative to the rest of my team, I was slow and cautious. Getting down is almost always harder than getting up when it comes to climbing, but I knew if I hurried, I’d end up falling, and I wasn’t ready to test out how badly I could hurt myself.

Chapter 1 Kelly There's a moment between impact and realisation that you're about to hit the ground a wise person once said that; when you fall down you are in free fall, you don't realise that gravity is going to pull you down and the minute gravity pulls you down that's when you can feel the impact and pain of the events that had just transpired and falling down isn't falling down if you don't feel pain . Is the realisation that you're hurt and it's accepting that you're in pain and you had no control over what had just happened.

Just as I am about to retort I feel myself slip off the edge to air, losing balance and falling backward. And suddenly it hit me, I truly might die tonight.

Every ounce of strength. She let go. Suddenly. My weight was already shifting backward from pulling so hard. My foot reached behind me, searching for solid ground. There was nothing. I’d forgotten where I was standing. Right at the edge of the stairs. My arms shot out, grasping desperately for the railing. My fingers brushed it but couldn’t hold on. I fell. My back slammed into the stairs. The air left my lungs. Then gravity took over. I was tumbling, my body hitting step after step. Each impact sent pain shooting through me.

I took a deep breath and climbed out of the window, I was on the roof now. Now that I was on the roof, I couldn't think of a way to get down! The fall looked very scary, I wasn't a good climber to begin with. “I real should have thought it through before attempting to climb down.” I thought to myself. I took a Deb breath and started climbing down. Luckily for me, It was a two storey building. A fall from here would only result in a few broken bones, I would probably survive that. Suddenly, I lost a footing and slipped. My hands could not grab something quickly, I plummeted down the building and fell with a soft thud.

Alex backed up a step and turned around. He let out a loud gasp of panic and he realized now that there was no chance any of their enemies could ever breach the Citadel’s wall here. Just in front of him, the ground suddenly dropped away into a steep cliffside. The cliff dropped so far down that Alex could not see the bottom in the middle of the night. One more step back and he would have fallen right down into the abyss below. The sudden sight scared him so much that could feel his balance faltering.

I know why people are in love, why they love the process of loving. It's because they get loved back, even if it's delayed. Love gives people false hope, and above all it makes you feel things that you never knew you could feel. It takes you to extends, it comes at the wrong time and sweeps you off your feet. And you will end up falling. Now, since we are falling on the earth and not space, there are consequences. Falling hurts. One moment you are so high up the sky, next, you are hitting rock bottom. In simpler terms, falling breaks bones.

About training and family and childhood memories. The sun disappeared and stars filled the sky before we decided to climb down. "We should go before it gets too dark," I said standing. "Lead the way." I started down carefully. Darkness made everything harder and I had to feel for holds instead of seeing them. Halfway down my foot caught loose rock. It gave way and suddenly I was falling backwards into empty air. My reflexes kicked in but the angle was wrong. Nothing to grab. No way to twist and catch myself. I was going to hit the ground hard from a hundred feet up.
