Week 15: Monday Morning
Who: Xander and Kalli
Where: Cove on the west side of Island
When: Monday Morning, just after dawn around 6am
Now this was more like it. The demon had been ‘good’ for far too long in that school, and there was nothing like old habits to bring the spirits up. Xander had found what he thought was the perfect spot on the island. Of course, he would have to look across the island for other coves, but this one wasn’t too far from the school, and he could hit the beach and still head back to school in time for morning classes. Which, at least for his morning run made it the ideal beach.
It helped that the waves weren’t all that bad either. The currents outside of the cove combined to create a good, solid wave system. They might not have been the largest waves he ever surfed, but they were good enough for his needs. Plus, the cove was on the west side of the island, so he didn’t have to worry about the sun coming up and blocking his line of sight. And no rocks in the water, at least none he found with his exploratory searching cruise. He was sure he’d find some sooner or later, he always did.
For the past hour, Xander had been running the waves. Ever since the sun had come up over the horizon, he was there and riding. He was in a good mood, a very good mood, and riding the curls only made it even better. The only thing that was missing was serious waves. The four and five foot swells the island got were nice and all, but he needed those with at least ten to twelve. Those were the types of waves that had tubes that were big enough for a person to ride down in. And there was little that compared to in this life than riding the tube within the surf.
And now, he was making another run, as he paddled with the rising crest, toward the shore. He lifted himself up onto his feet as he got into his position and then angled his board to ride the wave for its fullest inbound.
