You are able to push off the girl trying to take you down and leap into the river, the cold water making you shiver at first contact. Still, it's a much better feeling than a humiliating loss. You quickly start to swim over to the other side of the bank, not wanting to let the other girls catch up. They're busy deciding whether or not they want to strip down to their underwear and give chase, or just look for another way around the river.
You finally reach the other side and sprint into another wooded area, where you can catch your breath and recover from that all too narrow brush with defeat. |
