Katie remained in the shadows. She stood by the edge of the river, the water lapping at her bare feet. She looked down into the water, and saw her own reflection. Then she tilted her head, and laughed a little. The sun sparkled on the other side of the river, where the trees were deeper off the shore. Kate smiled to herself, and walked in the water. She put her hands in the water, and cold bit at her fingertips. The bottom of the river was slippery and covered in a mossy, gooey plant. Something slippery slipped through her fingers, but Katie's reflexes were quick, and she dug her fingers into it. She lifted up her hand, and in it was a silvery, sparkling fish, still flopping around. Kate climbed into a large rock, and sat down to eat, her eyes watching the river flow by.
