Nate goes over and reads the rules. Nate goes over to the starting line. "Ok so which one should I pick? Hmm let's see I have a good feeling about number 4. But I also have a good feeling about number 2. Hmm I'll go with number 4 because 4 is my lucky number after all." Nate steps back a bit and starts to run. Before he reached the edge of the lake he jumps and lands on the fourth lilypad. He was very happy he didn't miss and fall into the water. He was hoping he made a good choice about which lilypad to jump on. He crossed his fingers. He was wondering what the professor was going to say about that. Hopefully it wasn't to low. He really wanted a good prize. But if he got a low number it didn't matter to him.
