Post 5
As her rocket reached the height of its, flight, the parachute deployed. Weighted by Sutton's engineered weighted, the plastic bag opened almost immediately lifting the parachute up into the air. The wind caught the bag and it began to be carried away. Sutton chased after it beaming as it flew across the courtyard.
Though it couldn't have been for more than a couple minutes, to Sutton it was almost like all that existed were her and her rocket. It was like she was back home again, launching off bottle rockets in the backyard and chasing them down as she timed their flight. She couldn't help but laugh a little in this small moment of happiness. SMACK!
Sutton ran into the wall around the courtyard as her parachute sailed over top of it. Stumbling backwards, she fell on her bottom in the dirt. Looking around to see if anyone saw her, she quickly scrambled back up to her feet, gazing at the top of the high wall, wondering if she should go retrieve her parachute or just leave it...
