Chapter 15
"Why?" Lexi asked, peeking down the middle of the Turner's dark blue BMW X5. Cole looked to Phoebe.
"Well.. You like basketball right?" Phoebe asked, as they pulled into a Sports Authority. Lexi nodded.
"Yeah but you didn't tell me before. AAAAAAANNNNNNDDDDD You always tries and takes me away from the house when something is wrong." Lexi replied. Phoebe laughed and looked at Cole who put on a fake smile.
"Well.. lets see, you need shoes, a bag, shorts and shirts for basketball right?" Cole asked, changing the subject. Lexi looked down and nodded, she knew something was going on. The three walked inside the sports authority, and came out with three pairs of Nike shorts, one black, one yellow and one silver. They fit Lexi low, down barley pass her knees. The shirts were all sleeveless, except one. Her shoes were low top; black Nike's that seemed to be all she wanted.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Cole walked into the high school gym, where the camp was being held. Lexi sat down, now fully changed. She had on her silver shorts that had a black Nike logo on the very bottom of her left leg. Her black, sleeveless shirt had 'Just Do It' in white. She put on her shoes, and put her Nike flip flops in her bag.
"Lexi!!!" A little girl shouted, running towards Lexi. Lexi spun around to come face to face with Cammi. Both girls smiled.
"You play?" Lexi asked. Cammi shrugged.
"Now I guess." She answered, looking back at her parents who were walking over. Suddenly, a huge smile appeared on Phoebe's face.
"Gracie Bullock?" Phoebe asked, running towards the Golden blonde haired woman. The woman smiled and hugged Phoebe.
"Phoebe Halliwell? Oh my god! I thought for sure you'd be out of her once you graduated!" The blonde haired woman said with delight. The hug ended and Phoebe smiled.
"I went to New York for a while, but then came home and got married. It's Turner, actually." Phoebe said. Grace smiled and nodded.
"Great! Yeah I'm now a Trieber." Gracie said nodding. Phoebe smiled; she looked to the side and tilted her head.
"Yeah, Anthony how are you doing?" Phoebe asked. The man had strawberry blonde hair and clear blue eyes. As the three carried on, Cole stood back, and then was introduced. Cammi and Lexi exchanged glances. They heard a whistle blow, and a heavy set man called over the girls and boys that went to the camp. They started doing passing drills; of course Lexi and Cammi were partners.
"Which one's Lexi?" Gracie asked, after hearing the story of Lexi. Phoebe smiled and pointed to Lexi,
"In the French braids. Two of them." Phoebe replied. Gracie nodded.
"Camryn's right next to her." Grace stated. Phoebe smiled. Neither one of the girls were paying attention. They watched as the coach explained the dribbles, and had the kids' line up, and start dribbling with their 'strong' hand. Lexi had the ball pounding in her left, and Cammi dribbled it in her right.
"Think fast!" Lexi half whispered, as she knocked the ball from Cammi who was dribbling it. Cammi ran and got it, and came back with a smile on her face.
"Hey!" Cammi said as she tapped Lexi's ball with her foot. Soon enough, the drill had turned into a contest that the two girls made up.
*~*~*~* in the bleachers
"So, how are Piper and Prue?" Wes asked. Phoebe looked down, and half smiled.
"Pipers great. Prue, actually, Prue passed away." Phoebe replied sadly. Grace looked at Anthony, and both of them seemed surprised.
"But, actually, Paige is our half sister. She lives with us now." Phoebe corrected. Gracie raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, that's, good." Neither one of them knew what to say. Phoebe laughed to take the pressure off.
"Lighten up Gracie." Phoebe said, half joking. Gracie smiled and looked towards Anthony.
"Well, I bet their one step ahead of the other kids." Cole said changing subjects. The adult's heads turned to watch Cammi and Lexi who where trying to knock the ball away from each other, while laughing and giggling. The coach called for them to get in teams of four, and line up on the baseline. Phoebe looked at her watch; two hours since they left the manor had passed. One from when the camp had started.
*~*~*~*~*On the Court.
"Be on my team?" Lexi asked Cammi who nodded.
"Who else?" Cammi asked, as the two looked around at the boys and girls. Lexi looked up thoughtfully.
"Get someone who's good. Forrest!" Lexi replied, calling to the dark skinned little boy that had been doing the drills almost perfectly the whole time. He smiled and nodded.
"What about Katy?" Lexi asked, looking around. Forrest shook his head.
"No." Cammi replied. She looked behind her, and found a blonde haired little boy that walked passes their group. Forrest tapped him on the arm, and pretty soon the four of them sat on the base line.
"Okay. We are going to have a little relay race. One ball per group." The coach began to instruct. The last three kids from each line rolled their balls away, until at last each group had one ball. The coach smiled.
"Good, now when I say go, the first person is going to dribble down, touch the far wall, come back and bounce it to the second person in line, who's going to do the same, and so on and so on." The coach finished. The boys and girls stood up. Lexi gave Cammi a mischievous smile, which was returned to her. Forrest was first, then the blonde haired boy.
"On your marks, get set, GO!" The coach exclaimed. Forrest took off; the little boy was obviously right handed.
"Whoa! See I told you. We're gonna win!" Lexi said with excitement. Cammi smiled and proceeded to cheer on the blonde haired boy. He went, followed by Cammi. Lexi was the last to go, and finished first. A small round of applause came from the audience of parents as the last team finished. The coach looked at Lexi and Cammi.
"Lexi, Camryn can I talk to you for a sec?" The coach asked. Lexi looked up and shrugged.
"Okay." Cammi said. The girls stood up and followed the coach who walked into the supply room. Lexi suddenly jumped, and she and Cammi rushed to the door he closed.
"DDDDDDDAAAAAAAAADDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!" Lexi cried, banging on the door. The coach grabbed her and put a hand over her mouth. Cammi started banging the door, but the coach grabbed her with his other hand. Soon enough, they heard pounding on the door from the outside.
"Lexi?" Voices asked from the outside. The coach, now turned into a dark brown demon, and shimmered out.
*~*~*~*~Outside of the supply closet.
"Shit!" Anthony cursed. He looked at Gracie worriedly, and the two of them looked up at Phoebe and Cole.
"Look!" Grace said, pointing to the other side of the gym. Phoebe's eyes flashed towards where her finger was pointing, but Cole's didn't. Grace put her hand over the door handle, and then it suddenly opened.
"Telekinesis?" Cole asked, not surprised. Gracie looked up at him questionably, and Anthony nodded.
"Camryn?" Anthony asked, searching the supply room. Phoebe came in, looking around. Cole looked up accusingly at Anthony.
"You part of this?" Cole asked, taking a threatening step towards Anthony. Anthony backed away.
"What? No, way. No freaking way. What, are you?" Anthony now asked, stepping up to Cole. Cole shook his head and looked at Phoebe. Gracie pulled Anthony back.
"What are you?" Gracie asked in defense. Phoebe looked nervously around the room and sarcastically smiled.
"The Charmed Ones! Yeah, when Prue died we actually had to meet Paige, and found out the result of my mothers affair with her white lighter turned out to be about four inches taller than me!" Phoebe rambled. Gracie looked relieved, and sat on the trash can. Anthony didn't look impressed.
"What are you?" Anthony asked, looking to Cole. Cole crossed his arms and smiled.
"Well, I used to be the half demon Balthazar, but then, I fell in love with Phoebe. She vanquished that part of me, so I then moved on to the demonic wasteland and gained some demonic powers." Cole replied simply. Anthony looked at Gracie who nodded.
"Prove it." Anthony said, looking from Cole to Phoebe.
"What? Tell us who you are?" Phoebe stated. Anthony rolled his eyes.
"Two witches. Nothing more, nothing less." Grace replied. Phoebe raised an eyebrow.
"Prove it." Cole said, shifting his weight. Gracie rolled her eyes, and looked up.
"Kristen!" Gracie called, wiping her eyes. A young, fit woman around the age of twenty or so orbed in. She looked questionably at Cole, and then turned towards Gracie and Anthony.
"Can you sense Camryn?" Anthony asked with a face full of worried concerns. The blonde woman closed her eyes and then opened them again.
"No." Kristen answered. Cole looked worriedly at Phoebe, who still was trying desperately to fight back the tears.
"Why?" Lexi asked, peeking down the middle of the Turner's dark blue BMW X5. Cole looked to Phoebe.
"Well.. You like basketball right?" Phoebe asked, as they pulled into a Sports Authority. Lexi nodded.
