Scoot was not the type to give up when in danger. She was also a brave girl.

Explanation:

In the book 'Rogue Wave', we learn of a brother and sister who went on a ride in a sailboat. This was to serve as a fulfillment of the birthday wish of the fourteen-year-old girl, Scoot. However, they were faced with danger when the boat tilted downwards because of a giant wave that left Scoot trapped in the cabin while her brother Sully managed to get out.

Scoot was not downhearted when she realized that she was trapped. She made courageous efforts to get herself out including

1. holding on to a hull

2. shouting out for her brother

3. searching for a torchlight which she used to find her way around the cabin

4. diving into the water to find her footing on the ceiling ribs, and

5. hitting hard on the window to open it up eventually.
