(Sorry
I can't be spending so much time online, that's all. Too much work.)
Red dragged the bag of berries onto Tan's canoe and flipped over, bringing with her a shower of salt water. Central hauled herself up then turned round to pull Fort... "Blisterin' 'ell, where's that hen gone, eh?"
The water was oddly still, not a ripple touched the surface. Fort had vanished.
"We'll find her." Clucked Tan, handing the pole to Central. "You take over, i'll look for her by air." Tan then took off, trying to spot Fort.
Central looked at the pole. "Well, what do ya figure I do with this?" she cocked her head to her daughter, then stuck the pole in the water, pushing backwards. The canoe went forward! Redfern smiled. "It's Newton's law of action and reaction. You push backwards on the water with your paddle, so the water pushes forward on you with an equal and opposite force!"
Central nodded slowly. "Indeed." They went round in slow circles underneath Tan.
