(( The size of a car?! Yep, that's the kind of info I was hoping to gather. XD Also... I've never had anyone *not* want to move on from a challenge. I think I'm going to have fun with this...

... Wow.
You
stayed at the pond.
... You know this is a
race, right?
As in, the first person to fight their way to the scarf gets it?
And here you are, lollygagging at the very first trial. It's not even that hard of a challenge! You can
actually for
once,
swim!
If you really like muddy water, and weeds so much, why not go ahead and get
turned into a Frog, then come back and spend your challenge here.
But no, you would rather catch fish.
Alright.
Let's catch fish.
You decide, even though that you
passed the challenge, to spend your precious, precious time chasing underwater butterflies. Most of the frogs seem wise to your antics, and stay far enough away from you that it isn't really a problem. Some of the fish on the other hand, are not as bright. After a good time hunting, you finally spot a rather large, bright orange fish that seems completely oblivious to the fact you probably want to eat it. It swims slowly, somehow unaware of your giant body, until the point where it is stuck between a patch of wooden debris, and your claws.
You clamp it, somewhat surprised yourself how easy it was to get a meal in this pond. The fish seems rather bony, and probably doesn't have a lot of meat, but if they are all this stupi-
You are now upside down, half buried in the mud. Spots cloud your eyes, and you try to figure out exactly what just happened. All you remember is a sudden, blinding glow, and a whole lot of thrashing. It's around the time when you start to wonder exactly how you are going to get yourself out this muck, when a whole lot of water pressure grabs hold of your body, and bubbles once again make it far too difficult to see.
You don't even know you left the water, until you are suddenly cartwheeling down at it from the sky.
There are flashes of blue, a whole lot of angry looking teeth, and you feel yourself pressed hard against broken logs by what has to be the pond's equivalent of a tidal wave. When the water calms down for a minute, you can get a better look.
And your stomach drops.
