extreme physical education, period 1, tuesday
After sending out a handwavy email to his students yesterday to expect a brief portal trip for today's class, everyone was now standing in the backyard of Sam's massive estate. The first thing they'd probably notice was the big halfpipe looking before them and the boy who was currently dropping into the halfpipe.
If they looked around, they'd notice statues and nymphs that seemed to be alive, lots of gnomes that seemed to be in different places whenever you looked, small gladiators that seemed to be arguing with each other and a big ole Minotaur off to one side.
"Welcome to Seattle," Sam said, smiling. "And to the backyard of my house. It probably looks a little strange but after living on the island for so long, maybe it's kind of normal? Kind of? Anyway, today we're gonna be doing some skateboarding. Back there -- "
He jerked a thumb at the halfpipe.
" -- is what we're going to be using. You can see my friend Ramon already in the halfpipe showing off for new visitors. It's a lot more fun then showing off for Taco, my chupacabra. Heads up, if you're a girl, he might try and charm you. Don't let him."
"Hey, I heard that!" Ramon shouted from the top of the halfpipe. Taco, who was perched at the top of the halfpipe too, just rolled over and stretched out. "No one can resist my charm!"
Sam ignored him. "Skateboarding consists of a board with four small wheels that you stand on, of course. You use your feet to get you speed and the board is small and light enough to be able to do tricks when you're more experienced. Today, we're just gonna work on dropping into the halfpipe and staying on the board while going up and down one side and the other. It's harder than it looks because you've really gotta find your balance. I'm not gonna make you wear knee and elbow pads but I would recommend them. Helmets are not optional though since we're not in the Danger Shop today. You wear them or you don't skate and I'll make James entertain you for the whole class."
Ramon made a gagging sound. The gnomes had finally noticed some new visitors and were slowly getting closer to the class, giving them all curious looks.
"And...nothing here will hurt you," Sam said when he noticed the gnomes. "Feel free to explore the backyard if you're curious though."
With that, Sam started passing out skateboards and sending everyone up the halfpipe.
