Escape Artistry: Week 4, Period 3 (Thurs. 07/31)

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

When students entered the Danger Shop, they were again faced with a watery situation that looked an awful lot like their current Australian port. Everyone had been handwavily instructed to wear swimming gear, and if they failed to remember, the room would provide it for them and they could handwavily change. Once everyone was appropriately dressed, they were given handouts, ushered onto the waiting boat, and taken quickly out to sea.

"Like you saw from the handout, today you're escaping from sharks," Ronon said. "Remember to only engage the shark if it attacks you first. If you play dead, it's less likely to attack than if you flail in terror." He looked at various students to be sure they were paying close attention to these instructions. "Any questions before you make your escape?"

Swimming was not something Helen had done much of, but she could keep herself afloat without too much flailing. She watched the sharks carefully, focusing her attention to be ready to tell them to stay away if they got too close. She'd never tried to control a shark, but she figured it was worth a try.

A bull shark approached quickly, it was hungry and had been programmed to try to get some food here.

"Go away," she told it firmly, putting the force of her will behind the words. "You may not harm me."

The shark swam slowly around her, obeying her words.

She turned and grinned up at Ronon a bit smugly.
