I was laughing so hard I almost couldn't breathe as we sprinted deeper into the dungeon.
"Yes!" I declared triumphantly. "We finally escaped them! Now all we have to do is—"
"Hey Troll," Stephano interrupted while still running beside me, "you grabbed the wrong person."
I blinked. "…What?"
I looked down, slowly at his face then screamed.
"AH—!"
I immediately let go of his hand like I had touched something cursed.
Unfortunately, that turned out to be the worst decision possible because the moment I released him, my balance disappeared too.
I tripped over absolutely nothing and landed butt-first onto the cold stone floor with a loud smack.
"OW!"
Stephano looked down at me in disbelief. "Out of all the people there," he said, breathing heavily from running, "why did it have to be me?"
I glared at him from the floor.
"That confirms you have rotten luck."
"That confirms you're the worst possible option among our teammates," I shot back immediately.
