It starts raining

Isabel felt the first drop hit her bare legs and glanced up in curiosity. Sure enough, dark clouds were swiftly moving in and she could even hear a distant rumble of thunder.

"Shit!" Isabel muttered to herself again. "This is just what I need right now."

She dashed back across the street, tugging her t-shirt as low as possible with both hands. The raindrops increased in frequency, hitting her more and more as she returned to her inaccessible home. Isabel knew all too well that her pure white t-shirt would mix very poorly with the rain.

She had been hesitant to try climbing the tree before, but as the rain began to patter down steadily, the blonde was starting to reconsider. Her shirt was already starting to get a little wet! Isabel gulped and hoisted herself as high as she could get on the trunk of the tree. She soon found her crocs ineffective and kicked them off, eager to take every advantage she could get in scaling the tree.

After another minute of carefully shuffling herself higher, Isabel had managed to climb onto the limb closest to her second story window. With her arms and legs wrapped tightly around the limb, she pulled herself further along it. She was only about five feet away from salvation!
