Lyra had been in some sort of daydream when she heard the splashing of water around her. It couldn't be happening! NOT HERE! NOT HER...

"Ohhhhh Merlin's beard!" She let out a big HUFF as she took off a pair of her best shoes. If there was one thing, she should have just saved the school uniforms only because this water was making everything stinky! She packed up her things, tied her shoes together and draped them over her shoulder along with her bookbag.

If there was one thing she understood, she knew the meaning of saving things that were personal and loved from the nasty water. She heard the professor's wishes and gave a nod of her head. She would only help those she liked and he was one of them...and she was already wet anyway.
