15 Ways - Period 3, Week 3

Aly had had a rather long and exciting night.  Which resulted in very, very little sleep.  And that possibly showed either in her rather ramshackle appearance or in the class that the students were about to experience.

She waited for her students to arrive at the Danger Shop with an expression of glee and amusement on her face.

"Today's the first of your practical lessons," she said, bouncing slightly on her toes.  "It's a lesson not so much in specifics as improvisation.  You'll be working in pairs and go through a series of obstacles and keep each other from getting hurt."

Aly flipped the controls of the Danger Shop to reveal...a rushing river of foamy hot chocolate over rapids of chunks of chocolate.  Very, very large graham crackers and marshmallows sat by the side of the river.  As did mugs.  Beyond the river was a corral filled with yapping, wiggling, playing puppies who flung themselves at anything that came close to them.   And beyond that?  Was a very large wall.

She grinned and pressed another button.  Voices seemed to come from the Danger Shop.  "Oh noes!  Oh noes!"

And then the wall exploded outward as a giant creature burst through.  "OH YEEAAAAAAAH"



Aly couldn't help laughing.  It had been a long night.

She looked back to the class.  "Oh yes, and you and your partner need to bind two of your legs together.  This is a three-legged contest."

Walking over to Eve, she asked, "Do you still need a partner? I'm Inara, in case we haven't met. If we have, I'm sorry that I've forgotten your name and I'll be very embarrassed throughout the course of the exercise."

Eve just laughed. "Naah, don't worry. We haven't met yet. I don't think. Therefore, we haven't met." She nodded. "But yes, I still need a partner. And my name's Eve."

"Nice to meet you." She glanced over at Aly, then back at Eve. "Why are we tying our feet together? Do you know?"

"So we'll only have three legs -- hence the three-legged contest thing." Eve was a smart-ass, she couldn't help it. "But the purpose of it is... I'm guessing to foster teamwork? Because we're going to have to coordinate, otherwise we'll just be falling over and not actually getting anywhere."

A pause. "Plus Aly is apparently a cruel, cruel, possibly insane woman."

Inara glanced back over at Aly again. Maybe she was insane, but it was hopefully temporary. "I'm ready when you are, I guess."
