Survival Skills [Wednesday, Period Four]

[doubleohblonde]

Unlike the previous two weeks, today the Danger Shop was set up to look like the picturesque Welsh mountain ranges Bond was terribly fond of dragging out for classes like this. A small table was set up near where Bond was standing, with maps and compasses lying on it.

"In and of itself, orienteering is a family of sports, rather than a survival skill," he began once the class had finished arriving. "However, it requires a firm grasp of navigation skills, which makes it a perfect practical exercise to learn those skills." Bond continued his explanation of the hows and whys of orienteering for a while before gesturing towards the table.

"This class I would like you all to split up into pairs and complete the courses indicated on the maps," he said. "Every map has a different course indicated so there's no need to treat this like a race."

"Well, I kinda mentioned girls deserved cookies for... putting up with being a girl," Hurley said. "I mean, I was one only for a day, and... it totally was not fun."

"Hurley, I think that would be the sweetest thing ever," she told him. "But you know, that's a whole bunch of baking."

"Yeah," Hurley said. "But I'm gonna do it. Like, start on Sunday. Might need to recruit some help boxing it and delivering it all, though."

"Really?" Hurley said. "Thanks. That'd be cool. I'm probably doing it all Sunday. I kinda work Friday and Saturday."

"I usually don't have much planned for the weekends," she said, looking away. "Especially not now."

Hurley nodded. "Well, I'd appreciate the help."

He looked about. "Where are we supposed to be going?"

"No problem," she answered, looking around.

"Um, this way," Amber replied, map in hand. It looked right anyway.

"What kind of cookies are you planning on making?"

"Chocolate chip," Hurley said, going the direction she said. "Everyone likes those, right?"
