[ Annie can't correct them out of capsizing, so she goes over the side with a startled yelp, hitting the water and immediately kicking away from the kayak. The lfiejacket is really awkward now that she's in the water, holding her up and making her bob in an entirely unfamiliar way. She spies her paddle, kicking out so she can nab it before the current mid-river pulls it further downstream.
Granted, this leaves her further downstream than before, but she thrusts the paddle into the water and uses it to touch riverbottom (thank goodness it's shallower here) and keep herself from being dragged further downriver. ]
Hide! Grab the kayak!
[ ... She doesn't want to float swim after both it and him, to be honest. The shock of the water sure has her more alert looking than before, and not in a way she's totally appreciating. ]
