On cue, when Anne's parachute flew open, Maria's chute opened with a resounding 'CRACK' and the sharp tugging on her crotch and shoulders as the straps flew out of the bag to help the fabric widen. The rush of air helped the parachute balloon with ease and, soon enough, Maria was having slowing down considerably as her figure rushed to the ground.<br/><br/>"<em>Claaaaaaaaaaap yooooooour haaaands</em>," Maria called out to Oni. A reference to<em>Peter Pan</em>, a book she adored and still adored. She was smiling widely, her eyes sparkling even in this situation or light. It was simply fun for her and she wasn't all that concerned of what was happening. She stretched her hands out and shook her head, feeling the rush of air go through her fingers and hair. "<em>Wheeeeeee</em>.<em>I can flllllly</em>."<br/><br/>She was... in a sense. The proper term would be 'controlled falling'. Not that ever mattered to Maria.<br/><br/>Drifting in the air with the parachute open now was an amazing experience for the woman, it felt like she was floating like those fairies her mother used to tell her when she was younger. She certainly felt like a fairy as she rushed down to the ground, if not for the somewhat uncomfortable sensations on between her long legs. She continued to go down, maneuvering her straps perfectly to make her parachute move in the direction she wanted to go. And where she wanted to go was where she could see Anne's parachute was. Using her bionic eyes, she zoomed in on her and kept her in her sights as the moved close enough to keep the Major in her view.<br/><br/>While she was going down a<em>bit</em>faster than the others were, it wasn't too fast and she was certain that her landing wouldn't be too dramatic or noticeable. Especially with the foam that will be sprayed all over them like Anne will promise. So close to the ground now as everyone around her stayed closed, heading near the small beam of light was, Maria now closed her eyes and waited for the inevitable spray of foam to hit her.
