Sometimes Cowards Do Survive...

Chapter 3: Put that thing back where it came from or so help me...

You know that old song called "Suicide Is Painless"?

That pretty much describes my situation right now...

I'm falling through the air, I barely know how to control my "weapon", and to top it all off, I'm a fat guy, which means I'll likely fall faster and hit harder than the other "more experienced" students...

In summary: I have literally ten seconds before I fall face first into the ground going one-hundred miles per hour...

Help me... 

I could see Yang in the distance.

The fuck is she doin'?

She's causing explosions and shit! 

This ain't a Michael Bay film, girl! 

I could see the ground fast approaching. 

I looked at the Infinity Gauntlet. 

"I don't know what you guys are capable of doing, but if there was a time you could help me out, now's the time!" I shouted. 

Suddenly, all six stones began to glow. 

I then found myself slowing down. 

Holy shit, it worked... 

I looked down to see that I hadn't hit the ground yet.

I'm floating in mid-air...

HOT DAMN!

I walked to a nearby tree branch and stood on it. 

Guess who has the High Ground?

That's right, ish ya boi, Dc...

My train of thought was suddenly halted by a figure smashing into me. 

I started screaming like a little girl as I fell to the ground. 

I hit the ground with a loud *THUD*. 

"I'm sorry!" I heard Pyrrha shout from the tree. 

"Like Hell you are!" I shouted back. 

I could hear Pyrrha laugh when I said that. 

Watch out my fellow African Americans! This one's got a dark side to her! 

Wait...

She's the first person I made contact with...

Oh no...

"Wait! Where are you going?!" I heard Ruby shout in the distance. 

Yep, this is definitely just like Fortnite... 

I stood up, only for Pyrrha to fall on me again. 

"I'm sorry!" She said again. 

I groaned and looked up at her. 

"Look girl, if you wanted to feel me up, all you had to do was ask." I said weakly. 

She chuckled and blushed at that statement. 

I don't recall being this confident around ladies...

Another side effect of the Infinity Gauntlet I suppose... 

I stood up and looked at her. 

"I guess we're partners now, aren't we?" She asked. 

"I suppose so..." I said.
