The lake was pristine and a bright blue, reflecting the shade of the sky that Sunday morning. The air had a slight chill, but still held a a promise of warmth later that day with the already bright sunshine. The only thing to break through the lax sounds of nature was the metallic call of a man-made instrument. Sitting on a crevice near the mouth of the lake was a young boy. His blonde hair was a mess, as if he had rolled out of the bed and into the forest. His expression was a balance of relaxation and focus. He held up to his mouth a harmonica, playing a soft tune he put together in his mind.
Lately the young man had been busy with school work, he had little time to play. Although, he probably should have been more diligent when it came to practicing his power. After all, it was his only way to communicate. But still didn't understand it completely, and not understanding meant he was walking through this all blind. And mute. While he could see the good in the power he possessed, he often contemplated the downside. Some had called it a blessing, but his parents and Jace were also blessed. So why didn't they have to suffer through silence as well? He had known nothing different, but he still wondered what his life would be like if he was a normal kid. But in magical family like his, going to this hectic school as he did, one could only wonder.

It was the sound, the metalic twinkle that rang through the air, that had caught Noa's attention. Being a quiet being, the young girl usually hunted out a spot amungst the wooded area; away from the majority of people. Having grown up in the city, having the wind whistle and the birds chirping was almost alien to her.

The noise fluttered through the trees and even though following the music had never worked well for her before, she stood up. Tucking her book into her small bookbag, she peeked around the old oak and started her way towards a small clearing. The first look over and Noa didn't see anything but the pristine waters; feeling her heart drop. The second look over let her see the quie-mute boy his hands delicately playing the harmonica.

Suddenly not sure of what to do and why she had brought herself hear in the first place she cleared her throat. Yet, quickly trying to play it cool she grabbed a small rock and skid it across the water, each bounce sending a ripple in its otherwise perfect complexion. She could feel that her face was a deep red and only hoped that she wasn't suddenly changing her hair color or height.

Jayden had his eyes closed, deep in thought- that is, until the sound of someone nearby caused him to peek around. He spotted the girl from lunch, tossing rocks and disturbing the peaceful crystal water. Ripples grew on the surface as he looked over at her, though he never faltered in his song. He noticed the red on her cheeks and the uncertainty in the way she moved about, but didn't mull it over to much.
He was about to cease his playing and grab his journal. This girl- Noa, was it?, had obviously come here for a reason. But before he set down the harmonica, he recalled something- with an instrument in hand, he could actually talk to her, so to speak. geddit? Closing his eyes, he had to imagine speaking the words, feeling his lips move softly while he did so. Focusing his attention on Noa, he mouthed a simple word and let it flow along with the music till it reached her ears. "Hello," was echoing in both of their heads, and even saying that gave him a slight headache. He was still weak in his power, after all.

The ground around her was becoming bare from it protection of weathered rocks, as each one found a place skipping across the lake and into the depth of the waters cool grasp. Noa's eyes followed each small rock on its path across the water, but she felt slightly anxious. Did he realize that she was there, or was he lost in his own world of music. Unsure, Noa kept shooting glances at him threw the corners of her eyes, not brave enough to actually confront him. And suddenly her thoughts were interupted by a voice, but it wasn't hers. It was unlike one she had heard before and Noa looked around the clearing for the source of the noise. Surely she hadn't just imagined it, and her assumptions were confirmed when she noticed the boy- Jayden- from before looking at her. Giving him a slightly quizzical look Noa, gave him a panicy smile. "Hi," She chirped quietly. "Was that... were you... I thought..." She never finished the phraze however, because her throat seemed to lock up the deeper red her face grew.

He smiled slightly, though continued to play. Even with the faint beat of an incoming headache, he closed his eyes and spoke through the music once again, "That was me, I was talking, you thought correctly. This is my power." He explained, finishing each of her choppy questions. He took a breath, his song faltering slightly before going on as if uninterrupted. "I can't talk, but I can speak through music." He could do other things as well, such as alter people's emotions with his music, but he had only been able to accomplish that once, and had no idea how to summon that power again. Simply speaking, however, barely took effort. (Though, it was still hard to maintain, especially compared to normal people.)

Noa's eyes were wide and she pushed her eyelash-lengthed bangs from her slightly I love unicorns and sparkles and hats forehead. She had stopped throwing rocks, but her hands were layered in a coat of deep brown mud. The small girl step towards him in curiosity. "Wow." She breathed, blushing as she realised how close she had gotten to him. They were now nearly two oaks away from each other and had she not forced herself back into focus she would've been closer. She had so many questions, so many strange thoughts; but she wasn't brave and they probably would go unasnwered. Had he been able to read her mind through music, he probably would have been overwhelmed by the overload of questions. "What else can you do with music?" Noa whispered to him, her eyes forcing their way up to look at his face, but not make eye contact for she was too afraid to start changing in appearance in some way.
