Whitefish River Escapee

Lenora had been quite content to explore and lounge about the river; she knew of it's dangers, living so close to one back home, and she kept clear of it. She was happily unawares of being watched, her back to the water, and it was only the dog falling into it that made Lenora scream with fright. Hackles raised, she ran to hide behind a tree, peering out from it, and she saw what had made the noise.

Some creature, thrashing in the water, and then another wolf came bounding in. Lenora could not quite hear him over the rush of the water and the dog's thrashing, but that didn't matter — it was going to drown if it didn't get help. 

"It can't swim, dummy! Help it!" The young girl screeched across the water, sky blue gaze watching, wide-eyed and frightened.
