A deafening scream followed from the girl.<br>He caught her outstretched hand. The remote rover and core sample smashed into pieces below. She dangled in a frenzied panic. The rover shifted from their weight. \u201cDon&#8217;t let go of me!\u201d she screamed.<br>\u201cI&#8217;ve got you!\u201d he shouted back.<br>That calmed her a little, but she still whimpered. The rover stopped, hung halfway off the side of the cliff.<br>He studied it. It wasn\u2019t going to hold much longer.<br>\u201cTamar! River? What happened?\u201d Ringo cried out through the commlink.<br>\u201cStay back! It&#8217;s a cave-in!\u201d River scoured the cliff for a spot he could jump for. If he just didn&#8217;t have the princess clinging to his arm, he could get out of here easy.<br>Big John, Ringo, and Ginger showed up at the edge of the rocky cliff. The three stood motionless.<br>\u201cHold onto her River!\u201d Ringo\u2019s frantic voice howled, with his hands on his helmet.<br>Ginger began to radio the control room, explaining what happened.<br>\u201cI&#8217;m trying.\u201d River gripped Tamar\u2019s hand tighter. \u201cAre you going to do something?\u201d<br>\u201cLet me think!\u201d Ringo screeched back, his hands tense at the sides of his helmet.<br>River\u2019s eyes narrowed. \u201cThis thing\u2019s not going to hold much longer.\u201d<br>\u201cRingo, the trekkers!\u201d Big John\u2019s voice boomed. The two disappeared from the edge.<br>\u201cIt&#8217;s going to take them both to hold that beast.\u201d Ringo explained through their steady huffs. River didn&#8217;t remember the trekkers being close, but at least they were doing something other than standing there.<br>He examined the pit below, studying the surface. Then, he spotted it.<br>\u201cOkay listen to me,\u201d he said to the girl, gazing down at her petrified face. \u201cThere&#8217;s a small patch of soft moon dust off to the right over there. I&#8217;m going to toss you onto it.\u201d<br>\u201cOver there? You can&#8217;t throw me that far,\u201d she screamed.<br>\u201cNo, River. Don&#8217;t let go of her. We&#8217;re almost there,\u201d Ringo shouted.<br>\u201cShut it, Ringo!\u201d He softened his eyes, hoping she would understand. \u201cDon&#8217;t listen to him, you&#8217;ll be fine.\u201d<br>\u201cRiver, stop! It&#8217;s too deep! We&#8217;ve got the trekkers,\u201d Ringo shouted through Tamar&#8217;s constant screams and pleas. She murmured a weak, terrified wail, begging him not to do this to her.<br>Why was she acting like this? Did she think he was a monster? \u201cYou want to live, don&#8217;t<br>you?\u201d River yelled.<br>She nodded, gripping his hand so tight it went numb through his glove.<br>\u201cThen listen to me!\u201d The rover inched forward, its weight crumbling the rock side, and he no longer cared for her permission.<br>He swung his arm back, focusing on the point of impact, then tossed her toward the dust pile. She flew, screaming the whole way.<br>Her bottom landed safely, just as he said she would. But time had run out for him. The rover dove off the cliff, leaving him no other choice but to ride down with it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"148\" src=\"https:\/\/theskywriteshere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Erin-150x148.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1203\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Erin Wilkerson is a writer of YA fantasy and science fiction stories, which often feature fierce, comedic, and sassy female characters ready to take on the world and kick butt.
