15 Ways to Protect Yourself and Others - Week 12, Period 3

"So how many of you have had wilderness survival training?" Aly asked as the class congregated in the Danger Shop. "Everyone who does? On the right side of the room, please, and tell me your experience."

"Everyone who doesn't can stay on the left side."

She glanced at her two groups of people. "Okay then." And she tapped a sequence into the Danger Shop console that made what looked like a deserted - but not tropical - island appear around them. "The goal today is for those with wilderness survival experience to partner up with someone who has little or no experience." She smirked and gestured to the island. "And the rest is here. Your goal for the rest of the class period is to explore the island and set up shelter, find water to drink, and either find food or set up traps to begin to catch your own."

Aly grinned. "It shouldn't be too hard. The island's deserted of humans, true, but there are plenty of trees, forest animals, and a few sources or fresh water. People who have wilderness survival experience? Your priority is to protect your partner and keep him or her safe."

Molly Hayes

Teddy Altman

Peter Parker

William Kessler

Wyatt Halliwell

Prue Halliwell

Inara Serra

Seely Booth

Or both at once if it suits you.

Sokka rubbed his hands together. THIS was gonna be fun.

For some reason, Anders had the irrational thought that this scenario wasn't orange enough.

Molly listened with her eyes closed. She didn't know why it made everything hurt less, but it did.

Come to the left side of the room and give the rundown on your skillzs.

"I'm probably more comfortable in civilization such as it is," Dean admitted, "but my Dad taught me the basics of starting fires and tracking and all that shi- stuff."

"I'm from a tribe of hunters and fishers " Sokka answered, with a cocky grin. "Give me a knife, and I can survive just fine anywhere that's not a desert."

He was exaggerating a bit, but not as much as you'd probably expect.

"I took a Wilderness Survival workshop last summer," Bridge says as he moves over to the right side of the room. "And I've done some wilderness training with the rest of my squad back home."

"I know a little bit about starting fires and setting traps," Anders said, "and a little orienteering from some of my workshops summer before last. I haven't actually gotten the chance to really test those skills out, though."

"I had to make camp as I traveled across a desert -- twice -- and have learned more than a bit about hunting and trapping from my friends at home," Aravis said.

"I've had some training. A week long crash course of the basics."

"I have no wilderness training," she admitted, then added defensively, "but there isn't any wilderness on Shinon, so it's not entirely my fault."

If you have training, try to find a partner with less or none. And then keep them alive.

Claire had no training at all, so she hung around that side of the room.

Adam didn't really have wilderness training per se. So here he was, on this side of the room.

Z was a city girl who had, you know, missed out on a lot of the training Bridge had had. So she was over on this side of the room, looking around for a partner.

Molly immediately went over to join the group with little or no training. She'd taken a few workshops, but the way she felt right now, she'd be lucky to keep herself alive, let alone someone else.

Peter had hands-on survival training in cities, suburbs, Brazillian airports, and Jersey. None in the wilderness, though.

Wyatt? Total city boy. He could probably manage to fend for himself due to lingering boy scout training (shut up), but it wouldn't be pretty.

Feel free to mod as you like.

It's your basic mid-latitudes deserted island. Deciduous trees as well as evergreen. Lots of squirrels, rabbits, there might be a sheep or two from previous settlers. At least two springs with some little creeks running down to the sea.

WHo hopefully are here.

Dean was there, just glad that this wilderness survival exercise didn't involve him stripping down to a loincloth. Or less.

Zuko was here and probably scoffing at Sokka's declarations.

Who definitely is here.

*flops*

I know it's not a tropical island, but now I have the Gilligan's Island theme stuck in my head. D:

HAHAHAHAHA, I had to say it wasn't cause that was in my head too. :D

. . . now I want a class where we have to build, like, shortwave radios out of coconuts and palm leaves.

Dibs on Bridge for that project!

Coconut and palm leaf shortwave radio that dispenses banana splits in bamboo dishes?
