Jack was a bit surprised by the rope around his waist, but as he prepared to wrangle his way out, he was suddenly lip to lip with her. Now, that COMPLETELY ruined his guard, and his whole face turned bright red. He waivers a bit in the kiss, almost not noticing his sudden departure from solid land. As he was hanging there, he started to once again talk to himself. "Well, I suppose there could be worse fates than hanging here. After all, she had the curtesy not to drop me, right?" At around that moment, the ground began to shake rather violently, and he felt his position grow... precarious. "Or maybe I should get the hell up." Jack had only done this particular maneuver once, so a little luck would do him good. He began to vibrate his body and spin rapidly, both legs out like helicopter blades, until he picked up enough speed. He vibrated through the shadow rope, and began to fall. "Come on! Damn it!" He would shout as he finally reached the right speed. He shot up into the air like an RC copter, grabbing the edge of the landmass and falling onto his feet to catch his breath. Jack was pretty surprised that he made it. The helicopter thing is pretty hard to do, but it has saved him before. Now that he saw the state of things, Jack wasn't entirely sure of what to do. He shoved another energy bar down and charged up. Seeing clanky on top of his team mate, Vector finally made up his mind. He began whirling his hands until he had crafted another sonicboom, and rushed forward at top speed towards his fallen comrade. He grabbed Violet up in one arm as he passed them, twisting and launching the blast right at Dimitri. He sped away from the resulting boom, hoping it would wake up Molly and send Dimitri away. He smiled at Violet as he stopped a bit away. "Thought you'd gotten rid of me, huh?" He would say as he dropped her on the ground and sped towards the center of the hill.
