Serafina's frantic gestures seemed to be enough to encourage the big man to grit his teeth, forcing himself to climb farther and farther. He had to make it. What if there was something up top that wanted to hurt his family? Each and every step made a difference. Taima's yanks didn't hurt anything, and he could tell he was making both her and Nuk more than a little frazzled.
He just had to keep walking...

Taima seemed to help. The woman grabbed his arm, her tiny frame trying to drag him upwards, and the gargantuan man seemed to take heart, moving faster to oblige her, even if it was just to make her feel better. Nuk's lips curled a little into relieved smile, rubbing G's back a little before trudging him on.

He was getting close...or so he hoped. Time seemed to drag, without the usual sounds one might expect to hear, allowing one to think of something other than exactly how many times one had put one foot in front of the other.

That was it, easy did it. Taima relaxed a little but kept a close eye on G, squeezing his hand reassuringly as they continued to ascend.

Finally, he could see the door to the next area--here was to hoping there weren't any more stairs...
He stopped for just a moment, before moving on.

This was easier now, like he'd gotten back into some sort of stride. His breathing was still deep, but evening out at least, and he didn't seem inclined to slow in case he tripped himself up again and couldn't continue.
Left, right, left, right.

As he pushed through the doors, he found that he could not speak. It was as if his throat did not vibrate, not that he would have heard himself anyways. Touching his throat, he tried to make a noise, but it was as if he had no breath. No air to him to move to make sound.
Hear no evil. Speak no evil. Was there a reason for this?
A smile spread on her face as Gargantuan seemed to start to catch up again, taking longer strides this time.
That was it. They could do this.
To show how proud she was of the rest of her Family continued on, she lifted her hands in the air and clapped. Even if no one could hear their sound, the emotion she was attempting to express was nothing if not obvious, and she shot a grin down the few stairs distance that they still had.
Trying to guide them up, Serafina stumbled back onto her feet. It was time to keep going. She would help the rest of them up there. She reached behind her, beckoning for the other three to continue up the stairs with her. The end was near.
It just had to be.

Sammy stopped with the others frowning as G doubled over, it took a while but the group of silvers formally blue seemed to gather up once more and prepared to move on. Sammy shot Nuk one last look before nodding upwards, she was going to try and go on ahead of the others.
She was honestly impatient, agitated, the voice continued to talk to them and it drove her to get to the top faster and find the b*****d so she could do him in.

G seemed to have caught his second wind. They were going to make it. Nuk felt the weight in his chest lighten, encouraged by their progress. It was still far away, but they could see the top now, and he knew, somehow, that they just needed to make it to that door. That whatever they were looking for was behind it.
And then they could go home. Together.

The grin that help to his face was beaming when the others came into view. Even from up top where the door was, the large form of G was easy to pinpoint on the flight of steps, and the slow, agonizing pace he was proceeding at. The man who ran so quickly up the stairs seemed to have hit his stride and Jing could tell that he was hurting, even without sound, it was obvious.
They just had to go a little farther, the door was right here. The lanky man had resigned to waving at them from far, to show them that it was almost over. They could do it.
They had to do it.

They had to be close to the top by now. They had been climbing for so long that it didn't seem fair for these stairs to continue on for much longer.
Also, G's palm was getting a little sweaty and gross, but. In it together till the bitter end and all that.
