More demi-gods had stayed this year then ever before. Many because they had no where else to go, but many others because they wanted to stay and train and learn. Not a bad thing, but during summer? How lame.
Noah himself should have been inside as well. Right now a lesser nature spirit was teaching Ancient Geography of the Golden Age. Noah had no idea why he was in that class at all. He was a Satyr! If there was one thing he knew, it was the Earth. Sure that had been thousands of years ago, but a Satyr just.. Knows, ya'know?
So he ducked out and headed for the gardens to hide. Maybe he should have stayed in class. If he ever wanted his license he'd need to pass all his classes. But, summer! He ran his hand through his hair, past his horns and moved down the path.
It was still early, and the air was cool against his bare arms. The red Coca-Cola t-shirt probably wasn't the best for hiding out in a scene of green, but it was too late for all that. Besides, he had his reeds if he really needed them.
The trunk of a young Oak tree caught his eye. Some Casanova had carved a heart in the wood, the initials "TM + SC" nestled inside the heart. Now, Noah was a romantic guy, but there were other ways of showing your love without hurting a growing tree.
He moved over off the path and over to the tree. He probably shouldn't even touch it. He should probably be in class. Arrogant, lovesick jerks.
Noah took his Pan flute out of a pouch around his waste, and played a little rift; it sounded like Greensleeves. He laid a hand on the trunk, and stopped playing. The bark began to grow back a little, but the heart and letters were still visible.
Best I can do,
Back on the path he heard footsteps coming towards him. He turned to see who was coming; hoping quietly it wasn't a teacher. [/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/font][/size]
