| 0:00.0 | One, two, three, |
| 0:16.7 | Amar and Raina leapt off the jungle gym and landed with a soft thump on the floating tree trunk. |
| 0:25.2 | The bark was rough beneath their shoes and a few green leaves fluttered up around them like confetti. |
| 0:32.1 | We did it, Amar gasp. We're alive! |
