The weather was pretty much reflecting several campers' moods. The campers were out on the porch of their cabins. Duncan was sharpening a stick, Gwen was just sulking, Heather was varnishing her nails and Jesse was stroking Shiva's head, which was on his lap as she was missing Leshawna.

"Listen up, campers! One of the most gruelling challenges of any summer camp experience is the dreaded rain day! Where all activities with even the remotest possibility of fun are cancelled in favour of the craft tent. The forecast for tomorrow: rain, rain and more rain followed by... rain! See you all in the craft tent tomorrow at 0700 hours!" Chris announced.

"Frowning like a big suck won't bring Leshawna back, y'know. It'll just give you premature wrinkles. Oops. Too late." Heather mocked Gwen. The goth smiled with vengeance as she knocked the stair Heather was sitting on, messing up her brush and her nail varnish massively.

"Why don't you just put us out of our misery and vote yourself off!" Gwen retorted.

"It's so nice to see you two getting along! Gives me the warm fuzzies." Duncan said.

"In your dreams, perv." Heather responded.

"Urgh! I hate the rain!" Jesse said.

"Man, this sucks. Even Owen couldn't put a shiny happy face on this weather." Duncan said.

"Speaking of Owen, where is the big guy?" Jesse asked.

Then a large thunder crash came in and everyone returned to their cabins for a good night's sleep and to escape the rain.

Jesse slowly woke up with Shiva on the top bunk. Jess opened his eyes and saw-

"WHAT THE FU-?!"

"REOOOOOOW!" Shiva yelled in terror at this. Cats hated water. Their bunk was adrift at sea.

"Okay... where's the camp?" Jesse wondered.

/"Of all the dumb challenges, why did Chris strand us in the middle of a lake?!"/ (Jesse)

Jesse and Shiva exchanged a look as the latter shaking on the top bunk.

"Okay, you stay up there, scaredy cat. I'm gonna use one of these to paddle." Jesse said. He then grabbed one of the wooden beams under the top bunk and wrench it out of the bed and began rowing... somewhere.

/"Riding with him was the last thing I wanted to do. But I was starving! Oh, where's Jesse and Shiva when you need them?"/ (Gwen)

"Deal." Gwen said.

Duncan and Gwen got onto the raft and began floating away.

"What? Hey! Y-you can't just form an alliance and leave me!" Heather yelled from the beach bank.

"Bye Heather. Good luck." Gwen said as she began rowing.

"Don't go! Don't go! If you come back, I'll let you have Owen's chocolate bars!" Heather yelled but it was too late.

They kept rowing further down the stream and Duncan had been thinking of something.

Gwen and Jesse had been speaking a lot lately. And that was a lot more than usual. And he could tell there was something between them. And decided he had enough.

"Hey, Gwen? Can I ask you something?" Duncan asked.

"Urgh! What is it, Duncan?" Gwen said.

Duncan smiled. It was time to launch the torpedoes.

"You're into Jesse, aren't you?" Duncan said.

"Yes." Gwen said automatically. Then her eyes burst open in shock. "Wait, did I just say that?"
