Description

    Axl and Lucinda began to scavenge what little they thought they could use from the wreckage of the plane. Lucinda managed to find one of her satchels with snacks, which also contained her miraculously still functioning yellow mp3 player. Axl then proceeded to remove his battered jacket but not before removing his switchblade and sliding it into his jean pocket. He also managed to find another one of his knives and strapped it to his side. Then shirtless, he jumped into the waist deep murky water of the swamp. By instinct, he allowed his entire reptilian body to submerge itself in the muddy, stagnant water. He felt refreshed, as the water warmed his scales. When he returned to the surface, he released a satisfying breath.

    “Come on in, Lucinda the water's warm!” said Axl, displaying a smile of euphoria while reaching out his arms to help her enter into the bayou. Lucinda, on the other hand cringed her nose in disgust.

    “Maybe you reptiles like to swim in swamps, but we mammals don’t.”

    “I just know a good swamp when I see one,” answered Axl, while splashing some of the swamp water onto his already dirty face. After a few moments, Lucinda finally became motivated enough to remove her jacket and joined Axl into the bayou.

    “Nasty!” moaned Lucinda, grimacing. “The bottom is nothing but mud!” Axl snickered.

    “It’s a swamp? What did you expect?” Lucinda struggled as she made her first few steps with Axl steadying her.

    “I’m alright. You can let go of me,” barked Lucinda, as she began to gain a better handle on wading through the swamp water. Seeing she was becoming annoyed, Axl shrugged his shoulders and released her. Before continuing, Axl once again eyed the swamp that lay before them in all directions.

    “Soo…. You still have no clue where we are at right now?” Lucinda grunted out of frustration as she tried to free her leg from the sinking mud.

    “No, but to be honest, all I care about is getting out of this disgusting swamp, right now! I sure hope we didn’t crash in Mudlick Swamp. It’s supposed to be surrounded by hundreds of square miles of bayou.”

    “Lucky us!” jested Axl. “It’s been too long since I’ve been for a swamp swim!”
