"H-hey!" Lia giggled nervously, waving her hands defensively. "You don't eat humans! Remember? Orca?"
She wondered why she was trying to reason with an animal. But as the orca moved forwards once more, Lia found it within reason to attempt an escape.
It worked at first. After Lia dodged, the orca dumbly crashed onto the glass, cracking it slightly from the impact. But while she was still in the water, Lia was very open to another lunge.
Lia made a desperate attempt to swim away. The teenager did her best to reach the other side of the tank, where a possible escape route in the form of a ladder was thankfully waiting for her.
Lia found she could swim faster now. So she took the chance, making sure to swim really quick!
