Childhood Games, Class #2, Thursday period 1

The class met out by the main campfire today, where Lily looked much happier being in the actual outdoors. "Hi, guys. You all came back!" she said, quickly doing a headcount to make sure that was true. "Today we're getting a little more active than last week and playing a game called Red Light, Green Light. Um, okay, in case you've never been in a car, you can only drive at streetlights when the light turns green, and you have to stop when it turns red. Same thing here, only minus the cars. That's another class.

"The first person will stand here," she said, standing next to the unlit campfire and turning her back, "so you can't see what everyone's doing. Everyone else stands where you guys are now, and when I say 'green light', you all run towards me. When I say 'red light' you all have to stop where you are or you're out and have to sit over there." She pointed to the spot she'd designated Time Out. Shush, old habits died hard. "The first person to reach the campfire wins, and you go on to the next round. Pretty easy, right? Any questions?

"Okay," she said, once any had been answered. "Who wants to go first?"

Gladys dutifully stood by the campfire with her back turned. "Green Light," she intoned after a few moments.

Gladys watched out of glowing eyes, understanding the rules, if not the purpose behind them.

Amber listened, but really, who hasn't played this game?

Eh, guess those people from other worlds or something. Hm.

"Red Light," Gladys rumbled, turning around. "You Must Stop."

The spirit of competition overwhelmed Worf.

Yes it was a child's game. He really didn't care.

He ran at full steam towards Gladys.

"Red Light," Gladys intoned, eyes flaring as she turned. "That Means You Must Stop."

Worf stopped, growling at being made to do so.

He may have had to stop but it doesn't he couldn't be prepared to run again.

He crouched down into a run-start position waiting for the statue to give the green light.

She waited, watching him dispassionately (not that she really watched anyone any other way), then said, "GreenLight," very quickly.

Worf took off like a shot, running as fast as he could.

"RedLight," she said as fast as she could. "YouHaveToStop."

Worf tried to stop stumbling forward one step as he glared at Gladys and let out a grunt of frustration.
