Kicking Ass, Teamwork-Style, etc. (Wednesday, Period 3/Week 4)
Kennedy had left emails and written notes for all the students instructing them to meet in the Danger Shop per usual-- and that they should prepare to get soaked and better not wear anything that couldn't handle water.
Why would be evident as soon as they arrived and found themselves on the pebbled bank of a broad river; a number of rafts, big enough to hold about two people each, lay on the riverbank not too far away. There were some poles on the riverbank too, but not enough for all the rafts; you could say the same for thir coils of rope. Life vests, on the other hand, were plentiful in case anyone needed one. Given the way the river was fairly calm in some spots but eddied and swirled pretty heavily in others, particularly near the clusters of rocks that broke the water's surface here and there, the vests might be a good idea, eyesearingly orange as they were.
"You know that whole saying about how there's no 'I' in team?" asked Kennedy, who was standing ankle deep in the water with her hands in her pockets. "Kind of cliche, I know, but that's gonna be your big rule to live by today. If you're gonna get things done as a group, you need to be on the same page. Maybe you're not gonna agree all the time? Hell, maybe under normal circumstances you actually can't stand each other. In which case you might just have to suck it up and deal until you get out of trouble."
Not that she'd know from experience or anything. Ahem.
"Case in point: getting from this side of the river to that side. Groups of six-- that's including Bobby and Squall here-- and two to a raft. Either your whole group makes it across, or you have to start over... and watch out for the fish. They don't bite, but they are kinda aggressive with the leaping." She waved a hand toward the rafts. "Good luck."
