The launch force was higher than Ed had predicted. As he flew through the air a consistent throbbing began to eminate from his right ankle. ''Shit, I should have worn my high impact boots. ''Blocking out the pain he unfolded the device and attached it to his left boot, clipping into place the thruster board began its activation sequence. As the ground got closer and the thrusters increased their output the pain in his ankle escalated, forcing him onto one knee.

"Ed!" A voice called through his communicator. "You need to land now. Too much more strain to your injury and it may snap your achilles tendon"

"No need to tell me that Olive, I assessed that as soon as we launched."

Just below 4 feet off the groung the board leveled out and he powered it down. Coming to a gentle land he packed it away and began to sync his GPS again. "Looks like using the TB is out of the question now. Looks like it's on foot from here. Keep you sensors active Olive." With that he began his slow treck deeper into the forest and towards his objective.
