Cat and mouse (Elke)

A brown feather fell from the ceiling of the classroom hallways as the winged thief flew overhead. There were hardly any students at the mansion that could fly for long periods of time meaning for the most part he had little to no traffic unlike those who were forced to walk in between classes on the ground. Carrick laughed and tilted his head backwards knowing he had some time before the up and coming wall was before him. Mismatched colored eyes shifted back to the two hall monitors that were trailing behind him one running upside down on the ceiling and the other was weaving in between the student body as they were exiting their classes.

“Get back here bird brain!” the one on the ground call after him, dodging a jock exiting the chem lab. Carrick was notorious for skipping classes and seeing as one of the few people to actually get him to go to his class, Liz his girlfriend or rather ex-girlfriend was no longer at the mansion his motivation for showing up to classes was pretty much non-existent. ”mmmmmm…. Naw!” Carrick called back letting out a quick chirping laugh as he rounded a corner and tilted his wings causing another brown feather to fall out and fall slowly down to the floor.

For the most part the hall monitors avoided dealing with him seeing as they rarely caught him and even when they did if they could bring him to class or detention it was hard to keep Carrick in one place for long normally he just snuck out without much of a word. However Scott, the new captain of the hall monitor squad deemed it his duty to keep kids like Carrick in line. See Scott was a brown noser and no one liked him. Carrick stopped short at another corner and turned and stopped himself by pushing off the wall and flying back they way he came forcing Chad the kid running on the ceiling to fall from trying to avoid getting hit. “Detention!” called Scott as he went to catch Chad before they continued the chase.

”Naw, ain’t fer me!” Carrick said as he rounded the corner he was coming around from wondering why they were so determined to catch him. Honestly the time and resources they were wasting to try and catch him. Carrick of course never verbalized this however seeing as this game of cat and mouse had been the most fun since Liz left, this and the Nore movie marathons.
