<em>"Be careful of the water."</em><br/><br/>The other contestant looked up to Lydia.  She had a pretty face.  Long blond hair.  Big blue eyes.  Soft, pillow-like lips.<br/><br/>The girl put her hands in the air, showing she was unarmed, except for a couple of canteens.<br/><br/><em>"They know we get thirsty, so the watering holes are ideal ambush points."</em><br/><br/>The girl nodded slowly in understanding.  She slowly set the canteens down, then stood up from her squatting position.<br/><br/><div align="center">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/6/61/Hilda.jpg)</div><div align="center"><em>Hilga, a contestant</em></div><br/><br/>She stood up to full height.  She was a giantess of a woman, easily a head taller than Lydia.<br/><br/><strong>"In that case, I better keep a weapon handy."</strong><br/><br/>Slowly she turned to the side a bit to show Lydia the battleaxe on her back, then even more slowly drew it.  She also arched her back and rolled her hips a bit, accentuating the muscular shapeliness of her ass and the tribal tattoo decorating it.  Her weapon was no threat to Lydia at the range between them.<br/><br/>The girl leaned against her battle-axe.  She wore piecemeal armor that barely protected her.  The wolf around her neck looked like she killed it herself.<br/><br/><em>"I notice your quiver is empty. I'll trade you half my arrows for one of your full canteens."</em><br/><br/>The girl raised her eyebrows.<br/><br/><strong>"Why not just trade one of your arrows for both of my full canteens?"</strong><br/><br/>She tilted her head to the side, as if she couldn't even come up with an answer to her own question, at least for the moment.<br/><br/><strong>"Clearly you have the advantage.  You didn't even have to alert me to your presence, and you could have killed me without me ever knowing you were there.  It was... 'an ideal ambush.'"</strong><br/><br/><strong>"For one arrow, you could have <em>both</em> full canteens, <em>and</em> my equipment.  And yet, you come offering a trade.  I ask, why?  <br/><br/>"Do you think that you will miss and I will slay you?  Do you fear me?  Or did you notice anything else about me besides my empty quiver?  Did you notice... both of my <em>full canteens</em>?"</strong><br/><br/>She took a deep breath, expanding her chest and making her exposed breasts rise and fall.  She licked her lips as her eyes roamed Lydia's body.<br/><br/><strong>"Love that armor on you, by the way."</strong><br/><br/><br/><br/>Edits: Added a missing word and a line break.
