The first stimulus Joes muddled brain received upon awakening was the sound of rushing water. Loud, rushing water.  Panic woke him up with a start, as he started coming to his senses.  A quick survey of the area revealed that he wasn't in any danger, but his unknown companion was in the water.  Joe quickly waded into the rushing waters and grabbed the girl and brought her back to the shoreline.  After taking a moment to calm his nerves, he checked the girls vital signs. She was breathing, and he could detect a heartbeat. With a sigh of relief, he started shaking the girl by the shoulders.  "hey, are you okay?  Hey, can you hear me?!"<em>well, this is turning out to be one hell of a day,</em>he thought to himself.
