Noel nodded. He shifted form quickly and turned into his favorite tiger form, a white bengal tiger. Once Iris was on his back holding tightly, Noel started and began to pick up pace as they went into the forest. He was right, if they had drawn any attention to themselves, Noel's little secret spot wouldn't be so secret. The two continued for about 5 minutes, Noel climbing up a little elevation toward the end. He stopped and gestured for Iris to get off of his back, then changed back to a human form.<br/><br/>"I need to ask you to cover your eyes for a minute, and I'll cover your ears. Its just so that the way in here stays hidden...I hope you understand." Noel then guided Iris through a passage between two large rock faces. He took her hands off of her eyes and let her see where he had brought her...<br/><br/>In front of the two was a magnificent waterfall, the rushing waters divided at the top of the cliff and so two falls plummeted into the pool. But what made the scene dazzling was the ray of sunlight which came between the rocks at just the right angle. It shone into the waterfalls, but also caught the mist in such a way as to make a full rainbow over the pond. The birdsong echoed into the small valley, and the whole scene was....perfect. This was one of the two times a year the sun would be at the right angle to do this, and so Noel told the truth on how rare it was.
