> The turrents now began firing, Ariella that was when she began to use her athletic skills, trying to dodge each attack by the turrent.  "Oh..God. I swear, I thought this day was gonna be a little fun. And I had to wear shorts today." she said thinking to herself while still making her way to the finish line, TRYING to win that is. Jumping and jumping on each tile that she sees to get over there faster, but that was when she tripped and fell on the ground. Yup, she lost the race. It hurt a bit too! 

It looked like most of the students had started. Seeing that he was behind a fair few of them  James didn't see much point in pushing too hard to get to the end. In fact this was a better opportunity to do something that most probably wouldn't. Catching up to Ariella he grabbed her arm and helped her back to her feet. "Can't let a little fall slow you down." Fairly sure she was steady he continued on. Would he regret helping? Probably not. Being competitive was not one of his natural tendencies. 

Not having enough time to try and figure out the wall he was just going to have to chance it. After several close calls he made it past the pool and on to the electric poles in the hallway. This probably would suck if you had just fallen into the water and got shocked. Either way he managed to get through only getting shocked once. That was good enough he supposed. 

He got to some tiles and started stepping as others ahead of him fell away. Lightly tapping adjacent and forward tiles a route took shape as he advanced. Confident that the course wouldn't leave him with no options he made a dash to get past the panels. One dropped in front of him that he didn't expect and he had to make a desperate leap to the next. He landed on his hands and knees harder than he would have liked and paused a moment to shake it off. Good, looked like one last thing was left. 

Coming to the doorway he saw the strobing lights and cause brief glimpses of what was happening. "Oh fun."
