"Don't worry, I'm an expert." He calls back to her. He then decides it might be best to come down. He makes his way down the same path he had used getting up, and once he was about 10 feet from the ground, he jumped from the tree, landing perfectly fine without so much as stumble. Then he felt a sharp pain in his right ankle. He gritted his teeth, picking up his heel slightly. Before turning so that Hana could see his face, he hides the look of pain as best he could. "Well... the tree wasn't quite tall enough... the trees around it are all taller..." he tells her, making sure to keep some weight off his ankle, but trying to keep it unnoticeable, though it was a failed attempt.

Hana looked at him concerned when he appeared to be in pain, and he tried to keep weight off of his right leg. He must of hurt his ankel or something when he jumped down.
"Maybe you should sit down for a bit, and i'll try climbing one of the trees." She suggested, as she gave him a worried look. She didnt want him to get injured again, or hurt his leg even worse.

"I'll be fi--" he starts to say, stepping foreward. Then he gasped in pain. "Okay... maybe I should sit down..." he says. He looks around for something to sit on, but didn't see anything. He sat down on the ground against the trunk of the tree he had just climbed. "Are you sure you want to climb a tree? Most of these look pretty tough." he says. He then looked at his ankle, pulling up the leg of his sleeve to his knee. He tries to pull off his shoe, but he grits his teeth in pain. He carefully starts to untie it and loosen it.

"Im sure! It should help us find our way out I hope." She responded, as she smiled at him reassuringly. She then made her way over towards a sturdy looking tree that was taller then the one Komlon climbed up. Standing infront of it she glanced up towards the top. It was very high, atleast in her opinion. Taking in a deep breath to calm herself down, she then tried jumping up and grabbing a low branch. She was barely to short to reach it though. Grumbling to herself, she then placed her palm on the tree trunk. The green light from earlier appeared around her hand, as it flowed into the trunk of the tree. The branch she was trying to reach, appeared to lower a couple inches so she could reach it. Smiling gleefully at what she had done, she then jumped up and grabbed the branch. She swung her legs up, and leaned back slightly as she hooked her legs around the tree branch. She then pulled herself up into a sitting position. She then carefully stood up so she was facing the trees trunk, and began to climb towards the top. She made sure she didn't look down, which would of most likely caused her to panic. Stopping once she was a couple feet from the top of the tree, she then began to look around. She could see the womens dorm Wingardia not to far away.

Komlon slowly pulled off his shoe, then pulled off his sock too. His ankle had already swolen a couple inches. There was no denying it, it was sprained. By Komlon's inspection, it appeared to be sprained more than mildly. He then saw Hana climbing into the tree. "Be careful!" he calls out to her, hoping she wouldn't get hurt. The last thing they needed was for both of them to be injured. Komlon cursed under his breath. Why did he have to get a sprained ankle, now it would be hard to get back to the school. And if he did get back, he hoped he was just wrong and it wasn't as bad of a sprain.

Hana shielded her eyes from the sun, as she glanced one last time at the building that looked like wingardia. Making sure it was, she then went to look down towards Komlon but stopped herself. Soon remembering what could of happened if she did. She then continued to look straight ahead, as she shouted to him.
"I see the school!" She yelled cheerfully, as she went to climb down to the next branch. Her foot then slipped, causing her to fall onto her stomach on the branch. Her sandal wounded up slipping off her foot, and fell towards the forest floor below. She then finally caught a glimpse of how high she was when she watched her shoe fall, and her eyes widened with horror. She could feel herself getting light headed, as she clung to the branch.

Komlon saw what was happening. "Hana!" ye yelled as he stood up, ignoring the pain it caused him. looked up at the tree franticly, hoping he could somehow guide her to safety, or catch her if she fell. "Hana! Don't panic. See that branch right there? By your left foot?" he called up. "Get on that and hold onto the branch you're on right now!" he yells to her. He was positive the branch would hold.

Hana nodded, as she carefully sat up and hesistantly moved her foot towards the branch. She then quickly climbed onto it, as she tried to keep herself from looking down. She felt like closing her eyes, but that probably wouldn't be the best thing to do in a situation like this. She then kept her gaze directed infront of her, as she waited for further instructions.

Komlon examied the tree a bit. "Okay, now right to you ri- er... left... is another branch. Step on that and hold on to the branch right in front of it." he tells her. "And then you're going to have to duck under the one you're holding and onto the one undernearth it."

Hana had a confused look on her face when he told her what to do next, but did it anyways. She cautiously steps onto the branch on her left, and grabs the one infront of it. She then ducked underneath it, as she climbed onto the next branch. She couldn't help, but look to see how far from the ground she was. She was a lot closer, but she was still pretty high up. Closing her eyes, she then took in a deep breath to calm herself down.
((I have to go for now im getting kicked off. So i'll ttyl.))

((mmkay. Can we just skip the details? I'm running out of fancy maneuvers... So, can you just skip until something happens or until you're at the ground?))
Komlon continues to give her instructions, bringing her down the tree in the safest way he could find. As she neared the ground, he picked up her shoe that had fallen and walks over to where she would reach the ground. He looked really relieved and as if he had forgotten about the pain in his ankle. That is, until he moved. Then he gritted his teeth and went down on one knee, cltuching his right ankle, which no longer had a shoe and sock over it, and was swolen a lot.

Dove walked in the forest, looking at the trees and the leaves dancing in the wind. She was happy for such a beautiful place, a beautiful place where she could talk with the only creatures that would listen, trees. She walked among them gracefully and swayed with the breeze as the boughs of the great oak did. She spun around like the vine of the willow and stopped infront of a giant willow,running her hands through its leafy vines. She climbed easily up to the lowest branch and sat down quietly. She stretched her arms up to the tree, happy for its stories...

((OKay))
Hana continued to follow Komlon's instructions, as she navigated her way down the tree. She was almost to the ground now, as she looked towards Komlon. He had fallen down onto one knee, as he began to clutch his ankle. Panicking, she quickly made her way down the tree towards him. She was almost there when her foot flew out from underneith her, and she found herself falling towards the ground below.

Dove heard someone falling and looked about. She noticed two people by a tree and decided to see if they would talk to her. She jumped down from the low branch and stumbled a bit on her landing. She walked over to the tree that they were at and made sure that they could hear her approaching, she didnt want to scare them.

Komlon shrugged off the pain just in time to see Hana''s foot slip. He stood up and jumped underneath where she would be falling with his arms outstretched, getting there just to time to catch her (cliche, I know...). He went down on one to as her weight brought him down, but he managed to keep her from hitting the ground. He looked like he was in severe pain now as he set Hana down. He forced a smile onto his face.
