Description
This is the story of how Alya met the quicksand the first time. In May, just before their university exams, when the sun was already hot but the water was still cold, Alya and her two best friends were tanning on the beach. (By the way, if you haven't seen them before, meet Galya, the brunette, and Valya, the blond).

All of a sudden, Alya felt something wet under her. Before she realized what goes on, she sank butt-first into a little spot of quicksand. At the same time, her friends were able to walk safely around and to tease her. As Alya tried to get free, her arms got stuck in the sand, too, and the poor girl became completely helpless. Her friends could not stop making fun of her with jokes and tickling (Alya is ticklish!). However, when they finally tried to pull her out they realized that she is really stuck fast. The quicksand already turned into normal well-compacted wet sand. It took them two long hours to free her from the sand trap by digging the huge hole with bare hands.

How could that happen? As they discovered later, there was a water pipe under the sand. And the pipe gave leak just at the place where Alya sat. When owners of the nearby summer cottages turned on the pump to water their gardens, the water under pressure leaked from the pipe making very little but very hungry quicksand pit. And when they turned the pump off, the quicksand turned into normal sand, as it often does. Poor Alya just chose the wrong place to sit.

It was the very first time when her friends believed that Alya has very special ability to find problems.

This is a colored and slightly corrected version of the b/w picture . That picture went to the scraps section now.

I plan to do a mini-comic of this story. That's why there will be links to "previous page" and "next page". I would leave less of the grass on this picture but it is supposed to become a panel of a comic page and some talk bubbles will be there.

UPDATE: Well, as you can see, the above is the original description. I really try to make a comic, and soon we may get a chance to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the process. The comic is still 'under construction', and this picture is going to be a panel in one of the pages yet to be done. The first two pages are ready, and I hope you have seen them.
