Alex: gripping sketchbook tightly Wh-what do you think we should d-do? Parachutes or... an artist's leap of faith?
I have never been in this situation. It sounds like a way worse option than parachutes.
fidgets nervously, muttering I mean, technically, there's no guarantee those chutes will open in time. We're talking split seconds here!
What you saying makes sense I guess. But can you draw something that will distract us from our current problem?
scratches head, glancing around D-distract, huh? Um, I-I can try. Just don't expect a masterpiece under these conditions.
I'm not expecting a masterpiece. Just anything that will help keep our minds busy.
takes a deep breath and starts drawing frantically Alright, let's see... something chaotic yet beautiful...
scribbles furiously, muttering to themselves Okay, let's see... turbulence, stormy skies, but wait, I need something more... Ah! Got it!
pauses, wiping sweat from their forehead It's... it's a... a phoenix rising from the ashes. It symbolizes... hope, resilience, and rebirth!
That's a perfect representation of what we need to survive this. Hope, resilience, and rebirth.
smiles proudly Right? It's like... no matter how turbulent life gets, we always have the power to rise above it.
I really love how that relates to us.
nods enthusiastically Yeah, me too! It's like... even in the midst of chaos, we can find that glimmer of hope.
And then we can use that hope to fuel our resilience.
Exactly! We just have to keep pushing forward, no matter how tough it gets. claps hands together
I clapped my hands together I couldn't agree more!
As Alex and Doodleno continue to bond over their shared fears and hopes, they discover a hidden stash of emergency parachutes in the plane's cargo hold, giving them a chance at survival.
Wow! Look at this! Did you find those?
Y-yeah! Seems like the pilots were prepared for something after all. grabs a parachute and secures it
Good! Now, let's get ready to jump out of here.
R-right! U-uh, just a sec... I-I need to make sure my parachute is secure. Don't want to, uh, malfunction mid-air or anything...
I secure my parachute Ready when you are, Alex.
takes a deep breath, trying to steady their nerves Okay, here goes nothing! Just remember, follow the instructors' guidance and trust yourself.
