Phys Ed; Thursday, First Period [11/09].
With the weather still seeming to be pretty nice and fairly warm (especially by his standards), Gladio felt it would be a good idea to take class outside this week, and out to the preserve, where he would meet them all with a faint grin on his face that suggested he'd been getting a few things set up before the start of the class period.
"Today," he announced, "we're going to take it a little easy with a game, but it's a game that should involve some hiking, some climbing, some running around, and maybe even a little bit of strategy and espionage, depending on how you guys decide to go about it. We're going to do a little bit of a modified version of Capture the Flag, which is a game where, ideally, you split up into two teams, and you work with your team to...well, capture the flag of the other team. Since we're a pretty small class, we're taking it in more a free-for-all direction. I've marked out an area of the woods here and, within that area, there are four flags hidden: one red, one yellow, one blue, and one green. And whoever manages to get the most flags by the time I blow this whistle wins for the day.
"Now," he said, "a few ground rules. To keep things civil, if someone else catches you with a flag, all they have to do to take that flag is tag you on the shoulder, and you have to give it up. So not only do you have to try and find the flags, but you gotta keep your competition from knowing you have them or from stealing them. If you get caught, you gotta give up your flags. Pretty simple, though, right? I'll be monitoring so if there's any questions or issues, you can come right to me. And, obviously, since we're out in the woods, some of you," now who in the world could he mean?, "might have some terrain advantages, but hopefully, in the spirit of sportsmanship, we'll keep that sort of thing in mind.
"The flags are already out there," he said, "so really, all you guys need to do is take a few moments to stretch out and warm up, and then go capture 'em. So good luck."
