After the hike, everyone who had gone on, they were back down at the camp where they went to the lake for a swim.
"Feels great to swim after that hike," said Sharon as she floated next to Maria out in the water.
"Hey, I overheard the counselors talking about the wires to the cabin," said Maria after making sure they were far enough away.
"Please tell me that it's good news," said Sharon.
"Turns out that there was some damage from a squirrel so you're in the clear," said Maria.
"These darn braces are more of a pain than I thought when I first got them," said Sharon.
"Of course, they are," said Maria.
"After all you didn't expect them to be magic," she said before playfully dunking her friend under the surface. While under it, Sharon noticed a cable running out through the lake.
"Hey," said Sharon once she came back up.
"Any clue why a cable goes out under the lake?" she asked.
"What?" asked Maria before going under with Sharon following behind her. When they saw the cable the two shared a quick glance before swimming closer.
"Just what is this doing here?" thought Sharon. She then noticed a label on the side, but when she went closer her braces caused an electric wave to pulse through the water directly around her.
"Sharon!" thought Maria who was far enough away to not get shocked. Once the electricity stopped, she swam over and grabbed hold of Sharon to help her up to the surface.
"Help!" said Miranda once at the surface.
"I need help over here!" she said. To this, two counselors jumped into the water and swam out to help while other campers stood around the shore watching.
