Light’s Death (alternate version)

Light’s death is a deleted scene from One: Faith of my Friends (2024) in which it shows how Light was originally gonna die from fire instead of water.

Synopsis
Soda Bottle and Light try to tell her about Wren's message, but is interrupted when everyone is teleported into a forest like room with an exit in a long hallway. Airy then explains the rules for the new challenge, which is to escape while avoiding the flames. The first team to have a member fail the challenge is up for elimination.

But while the rules are being stated, Backpack realises that Light's in a dire situation, and asks Soda Bottle and Scenty to help him take Light’s ice pack off. They rush to take the ice pack off, and yell at Airy to pause the count down, but he doesn't listen.

The challenge begins as the flames start to go up quickly as they run to the exit. Light tries to remove her ice pack to stop the flames, but a log ends up falling and crushing in her. The three notice Light’s screams as she burns and tries to remove the log, but the log was too heavy.

Light coughs up blood as she is engulfed by flames, inhaling smoke as well. As the other two leave, Light says goodbye to Backpack (who she calls him by his real name) before he leaves as Light inhales the smoke, then later burning to death. Later, Light wakes up in the afterlife, soon seeing her parents.

The three family members embrace, having finally been re-united. Meanwhile, after the others escape, Airy announces that because they left Light behind, Backpack and Soda Bottle are up for elimination. Backpack's jaw drops and falls to his knees.

Why it was deleted
Producer Ellen DeGeneres states that the reason why it cut is because, unlike Patchwork dies onscreen, it was deemed far too horrific for a kids film, saying that both the alternate death scenes will end up darker than Infinity Train.
