Mizuki catches it but she dangles off the very edge of the ladder, in such an awkward position that it's difficult to recover to a proper one. Her eyes widen as she looks down into darkness once more, beads of perspiration forming on her forehead from the humidity of the room. Her hands become clammy and she can feel them shake, slowly loosening her grip.
"You need to be more careful," Hinata yells out to her, pulling her up by her upper wrist. Mizuki wonders how he has so much strength to hoist her up while he's also trying to dangle on the ladder, and the walls that enclose them also start to pose a threat to their safety.
"No time to talk, hurry up," he tells her, not wanting to dilly-dally for long.
Just as Mizuki weasels out of the whole with her hand tightly clenched around the Piece, the floor shakes and Hinata tightly closes the door, stepping on it to force it shut.
