Three friends, Sarah, Jane, and Emily, all went camping in the woods for the weekend. As they were setting up their tent, Sarah realized she had forgotten the sleeping bags.
"We'll just have to sleep without them," Sarah said.
They settled down for the night, with Sarah and Jane on one side of the tent and Emily on the other. In the middle of the night, they were awakened by a strange noise coming from Emily's side of the tent.
"What is that?" Jane whispered.
"I think it's a bear," Sarah replied, her voice trembling.
They heard the noise getting closer and closer, until suddenly, a raccoon poked its head through the tent flap.
"Quick, grab the bug spray!" Sarah shouted.
Emily fumbled in the dark and handed Sarah a can of bug spray. Sarah sprang into action, spraying the raccoon with all her might.
The raccoon screeched and ran off into the woods. Jane and Emily looked at Sarah in confusion.
"Why did you spray it with bug spray?" Jane asked.
Sarah shrugged. "Well, I didn't have any bear spray, did I?"
They all burst into laughter, relieved that it was just a raccoon and not a bear. From then on, whenever they went camping, they made sure to pack both bug spray and bear spray, just in case.
