[The change in speed is a bit surprising, but Tifa holds on tight anyway, as best as she can with one hand. The dogs keep up well enough, though Melody does trip once or twice on some loose branches before Valo helps pick her back up and put her on her feet again.
It's Idris, however, that runs a little further ahead, at least a few paces. Far enough that when he starts barking at something up ahead as they've run further down the river, she can't quite see what it is, and it makes her grip Eustace's fur a little too tight.]
