"Get back!" she can hear Ruby ahead. So close and too close all at once. "It's coming down! We have to get back out."

This is her fault, really. This mess that she's not gotten her best friend into as well. She shouldn't have come in here. She should have known better. Of course this wasn't a real mountain. Nothing here was real. Just some elaborate stage set up. There was nowhere safe. Nowhere to hide...

She should have known.

It feels like falling at first. When the ceiling above them crumbles, she hears the crack and the crash and feels the world tumble. Its slips out from beneath her like she'd simply missed a step. But the world just keeps coming up. So fast. So sudden. The scream slips from her throat before she even knows what's happening.

A particularly large ceiling beam that had once been almost three stories above their heads was now the cause of a rapidly collapsing building, and also the reason that Snow White was now two stories below where she had only just been.
