Now I’ve done it.

I got carried away fighting a dumb student on top of a train and I fell off. Yes, I fell right into the Great Tokyo Fault.

I’m on the Tama slope of the great fault splitting Tokyo with only my fist jabbed into the slope to support me. What am I supposed to do now?

And let’s not forget that the Kantou loam layer that makes up Tokyo’s bedrock is made of volcanic ash and likes to collapse at the drop of a hat.

“Wait, I was just kidding! Don’t actually collapse!”

I watched the rock falling next to me and saw stars twinkling beyond the sea of clouds below. Leave it to Zenon City – Tokyo to not make any sense at all.

Then a larger shape fell from above. Thinking it was a boulder, I pressed against the slope to remain as small a target as possible, but then the shape stopped next to me.

I looked over to see a red Caddy. The giant American car clung to the edge of the fault with the Boss and Snowy inside.

“What are you doing? Get in already.”

“Y’know, I just have to ask: how is that thing driving on the wall?”

“Cars drive on roads and this one’s driving here, so it’s clearly a road, not a wall.”

Snowy looked exasperated with the Boss’s answer while she leaned out of the car and extended her hand. But after a moment of thought, she pulled her hand back.

“I might consider saving you if you promise to reform your indecent ways.”

“And I might consider telling you to go to hell because that’s not happening.”

The car started backing up, so I hurriedly leaped for the bumper.

'''Author Comment:

You’re doomed if you fall into the fault.

There’s probably some insurance for that. Hm.
