Lura’s POV SoE 1-1
I sighed and put on my glasses. I hated waking up early but being a teacher
requires it. Dev was looked as I got up. Have a good day. He says and I get
ready. Packing everything away in my bag, I grab the binder of tests for today
and head out the door to my car. my mini suv Acura was waiting for me. I did
the same old drive to work and parked in the same old spot. I get out and walk
into the building. Morning Baxter! Mr Walter says. Morning! I tell him and head
to my classroom. It was small but not too bad. I walk to the corner of the room
and sit down in my roller chair. I looked out my window as I graded papers. Mrs
Dodd, the math teacher, was walking into the building with her normal scowl. I
knew what she really was. A fury. I had fought her kind before. I didnt want to
ght her out in the open so I had let her be. She was most likely here for the
twins. Even better reason Im in this school right now. I think and get back to
grading. I couldnt stop worrying that one day they would be attacked and i
wouldnt know. That’s why I had gotten Knole, a junior satyr protector, to watch
them. Astraea had approved so he stayed with them. When he wasn’t in the so
called ‘foster home’ he was with them in and after school until they went home.
I nished my last paper and just in time. The students were already pouring in.
The twins were my class right before morning break. Two classes. I think and
welcome in the students in with smiles. The morning whizzed by. The twins came
in and Cypher looked nervous. Knole looked especially nervous today as well. I
let the class study for a few minutes before handing out the tests. Cypher
looked terried but I knew he would ace it. He was hardwired for this stuff. The
twins could not look more different and alike at the same time. I sat at my desk
and waited for the bell. I graded each paper and Cypher looked proud to turn
his in. I skimmed over it and found my theories correct. The bell rang. Cypher? I
ask him and he walks over. Do you know why I call you over here? I ask him. No.
He says. I lift up my beads and show them to him. Do you know what this
symbol is? I ask him. He studies it. Its the mark of Olympus. He says. Yes very
good! I tell him. Is this about my test? He asks me. You got a 105. You even got
my bonus question which I didnt teach. I tell him. He brightened immediately.
thank you Mrs Baxter! He says and runs off. Your welcome Cypher. I yell after
him. I sigh. It felt like yesterday he was a baby in my arms but now he was 12.
I was about to leave for lunch when Knole ran out of breath up to me. Mrs
Dodd…. She’s attacking! He told me out of breath but I was already out the door.
I ran and pulled off my glasses. My bow was in hand. I see the
fury ready to breath re right on them. I aim and watch my silver
arrow hit true. The Fury sank into dust and I walked over to the
huddled twins. I put my glasses back on and they stare at me.
What. The. Heck? They ask me. Im sorry but you both have to go
to the principal’s ofce. I tell them, knowing that my cover had
been blown enough. I led them there and they had lots of
questions but I stayed silent.
