Swooooosh.
After a rough travel through the cold, running river, the two rivals drift on a small land surrounded by water. One out of the two, Adora, bolts up to her side as she starts to cough out the little water stored into her lungs.

Adora: (Nastily coughing out onto the ground) uugh...oh God, I-I made it...out?

She wipes the water and spit off of her mouth, leaning back and breathing steadily to recollect her thoughts. The first thing to come up in her mind was Catra.

Adora: Wait, C-Catra?!

The worried blondie spectates around to area until she starts to feel a warm presence lingering behind her, turning around to see an unconscious Catra laying on the wet dirt.

Adora: No...no no no, NO! Please be alive, please!

She quickly comes up to her feet then holds up Catra by her upper body, dragging her away from near the wild river. Adora goes inside of a decently shallow cave close by, gently putting Catra back down against the ground.

Adora: Alright, I've got this!

Adora places two hands over Catra's chest, pumping up & down until she receives a response.

Adora: Wake. Up. CATRA!

Seriousness conquers her face as Catra remained there almost dead silent. Adora's pumping slowed down as she peers her eyes at the feline's lips, gulping heavily. She knows what she has to do, and it may just work...

Adora: You leave me with no other choice...

The blondie opens up Catra's mouth before she slowly comes down to press their lips together, breathing in & out to give her air. Adora raises her head back up to continue on the pumping.

Adora: C'MOOON!

After several more pumps, Adora comes back down towards her face. Before their mouths could make contact, a splash of water suddenly coughs out from Catra, covering up Adora's face with water.

Adora: BLEH! I-I mean, yay, YOU'RE OKAY!

Catra rolls over to the side coughing repulsively, barely holding herself up from the ground.

Catra: Ack! D-Damn!

Adora shakes her head to sprinkle off the water drenched all over her face.

Catra: Hey! Watch where you're shaking!

Adora stops at what she's doing then focuses a mean stare at Catra.

Adora: Wow, you're sooo welcome.

The ungrateful cat pouts as she rises up to her feet, moving near the cave's wall then sits down against it.

Catra: I'm so freaking cold...

She rubs both of her arms at a brisk pace, recieving little to no warmth at all.

With a sigh, Adora gets up off the ground then places her fists on her hips.

Adora: Sheesh, making me do all of the heavy duty, fine...I'll go make a fire.
