Chapter 6- Combat Training
Three days had pasted since Prue had been appointed to show Bianca around the magic school and they were getting on quite well, Chris had been assigned to show her around at lunch time and he was none to please about it...ok he hated her.
From when he first met her, he had been trying to be nice to the girl and she had been driving him crazy, breaking rules then saying Chris hadn't told her them was her favourite, he was getting in a lot of trouble at home at the moment.
Chris walked down the corridor in a bit of a huff, his PE kit was weighing him down and his dad had stopped him as he went to run out of the office and warned him about 'no more slip ups please son'
Today was the first day of combat training for the kids who had finally moved up, he new what would happen already their teachers always liked to start with a bang.
First they would gather everyone around the hall, and randomly pair people up to fight.
Then the next lesson they would play magical hide and seek where you had 2 find and eliminate everyone in the hall without being caught yourself.
Then the third lesson would be a lot more basic and everyone would go into groups, teams, or pairs and battle it out on the mats using techniques the teachers had asked them to use.
Every now and again something fun came along, they always enjoyed mixing it up.
Chris smiled slightly, he had spent the entire summer with his cousins swimming in his Aunt Paige's pool and practicing magic, he hoped dearly that he would be put against Jarvis in class, he could not wait to show Stacey who the better man was (him of course).
He began to think of his blond haired beauty and drifted off into a daydream when something slammed into him. "Owww, sorry bout that" he said
"Maybe if you weren't on your own world all the time big brother you would learn to not almost knock Bianca over!" said an annoyed Prue who was lifting her friend off the ground.
"Im sorry Minnie, sorry Bianca" he said sheepishly
"Grrreat…right so where is combat training I cant wait!" said Bianca looking excited and smiling openly, which was a first for either Halliwell to see.
"Ok girls this way, follow me," said Chris starting off again and avoiding Bianca's gaze
"Is combat in the great hall?"
Chris snorted, "You mean where mass orientation is…Prue use your head! There's to many books there"
Prue gave her brother an evil look, "There's a combat classroom, the war magic class room is right next to it, don't worry though its sound proof"
"I cant wait no one knows about my new power yet, accept for the family and you Bianca!" said Prue excitedly
Chris rolled his eyes, his baby sister had five powers! FIVE!
They came to a large wooden door and went in, the two girls gasped; Chris merely looked around and went over to his friends.
Suddenly in the middle of the room appeared two black people, one male and one female, these were their teachers, Genna and George, the twins, the best combat teachers in seven states.
"Welcome" said George in his loud booming voice, which echoed round the hall and made everyone fall silent immediately.
Both twins were dressed in combat green with combat trousers, black army boots and dark green shirts, both had a snake tattooed around their right arm, rumours said they had gotten them for extreme assassination and that the snakes came alive and strangled you, then returned to the arms of their owners, these were just rumours of course.
Genna stepped forward, "For all you new kids listen up!, Girls up the right stairs, Boys up the left, get changed fast! GO! GO! GO!" she yelled
Around a hundred girls went up the spiralling metal staircase on the right, about a hundred and ten boys to the left.
The walls were adorned with weapons, which were magically stuck to the walls unless Genna or George magically released them; there was also a large climbing frame that filled the entire hall when pulled out, the floor was wooden but mats suddenly popped up at the whim of the teachers.
Ten or so minuets later everyone was in the hall, a large squashy mat covered the entire floor and their twin teachers were nowhere to be seen.
"Ok everyone listen up!" came the large booming voice of George thought no one could quite see where he or his sister were.
"I want all of you grunts against south the wall NOW! NOW! NOW!" came Genna's voice from seemingly everywhere.
All the students hurriedly sprinted towards the south wall a made a small crowd.
Genna and George suddenly jumped down from wherever they had been hiding and stood in front of their students.
"Ok im guna sum it up for you who don't know, we are guna pick pairs at random, you will go onto the floor with your partner and battle using your powers and whatever bodily strength you may have, you will fight until someone wins and you can only win if someone is unconscious or floored or they admit defeat or someone gets hurt in that case you will be healed by Chris, Wyatt or a white lighter, there will be no interfering what so ever, now I know this is grave news but im afraid it must be said, if anyone were to die on the mats, even if it were an accident, the person who committed of the crime will be expelled and striped of their powers" he said looking at them all seriously
Genna clapped her hands to end the tense silence, "ok you all know how its done but im guna say it I'll pick a person, George will pick a person, you two will battle it out" she ended cheerfully.
"George" she said nodding at her brother, indicating for him to pick first.
He smiled evilly, "You" he said pointing at a blond girl in a power blue tracksuit, who waltzed into the centre looking slightly nervous.
Chris was looking at the girl worriedly, "Stacey" he whispered, Wyatt grinned and nudged his brother slightly, "chill out bro, stop worrying about your girlfriend"
Chris gave him an evil look.
"You" said Genna pointing at another blond girl, Lucy.
The teachers went and stood by the west wall.
"GO!" they yelled in unison
Stacey who could control metal things brought a weapon off the wall and sent it flying at Lucy with a wave of her arm.
Luckily Lucy had moved as well, within seconds Stacey was trapped up to her knees in ice, (people dint call Lucy the ice queen simply because she was a bitch you know)
After a full 10 seconds of ice shooting out of Lucy's hands, Stacey was completely encased.
Lucy stood back with a triumphant smile, that fight had barely lasted a minuet.
Chris ran forward and healed Stacey, when she was completely thawed out she fell into Chris's arms, a fact which made him very happy, he carried Stacey back to the group and set her on one of the rocking horses for her to recover.
George took a big sniff, "Hmmm smell that tension Gen?" he asked his sister
Genna gave an evil smile, her black eyes glittering and nodded at her brother.
"Time to see what the new meat has I think, all senior students step back!!!!" he yelled
All the older kids stepped back, "Ok im going to be picking a few of the older students to battle the younger ones later" said Genna with a wicked smile playing on her face.
"You!" said George pointing at a kid in Prue's year named Seth; he walked forwards wearing a slight frown, a dark red shirt and grey sweats, he had spiked blond hair and deep green eyes.
"You" said Genna pointing at a boy named Luc.
"GO!"
Luc ran to the wall and started to climb up it, his power was that he was very sticky when he wanted to be.
But as he was a few feet up a flash of red, grey and blond knocked him off the wall, Seth, you see was very, very, very fast.
Luc stood up to see Seth standing in front of him with his hair slightly to one side and a small smile planted on his face.
Luc swung a punch but Seth blocked then spin kicked him into the wall successfully winding him.
"Ok speedy you win" said George chuckling and going over to help the boys up.
Genna went over to her brother and whispered something in his ear.
George smiled, "good idea Gen, OK LISTEN UP! Were going to have a team match quickly because my sister and I are very curious to see what four Halliwell's could do together, you know who you are get your asses onto this mat and bring one other player.
The four Halliwell children made their way onto the mats with Bianca in tow.
"You, you, you, you and you" said George rapidly pointing at a mixture of children, two in Chris's year, one in Wyatt's and two in Prue, Petra and Bianca's year.
Soon it was five against five each child silently picked their opponent.
"GO!"
One of the spectators who was in Wyatt's year had the power of light so she conjured up a sort of scoreboard in gold mist.
Wyatt (T.M.P) VS Trina (Duplication)
Chris (telekinesis/Whitelighter) VS Will (Acid)
Petra (mind speaker/cupid) VS Lily (Shockwave)
Prue (Explosion, Freezing, Orbing) VS Damien (Fire shooter)
Bianca (Phoenix) VS Jarvis (Earth Control)
T.M.P (too many powers)
Everyone was admiring the scoreboard when suddenly the not Halliwell team attacked.
Trina made six more of herself and they all attacked Wyatt.
Will skimmed Chris's arm and burnt through his shirt with a jet of acid
Lily had clapped her hands together and sent Petra flying into a wall.
Damien shot fire out of his hands at Prue which she quickly froze ducked under and went into an attack.
Jarvis had brought roots up from the earth and was trying to catch Bianca but she shimmered away.
The first casualty was Trina whom had been defeated by Wyatt, considering Wyatt's powers he was not allowed to stay on and went off with Trina, Wyatt name went blue on the scoreboard and Trina's red.
Prue had frozen Damien and kicked him in the stomach, Damien's name went red and hers went blue.
(You may have gathered by now that her aunt Phoebe had not only taught Prue to manage her powers but to fight as well)
Prue rushed off to help Petra who was just winking away from lily's shockwaves.
Chris and will were battling evenly at the moment will kept on sending acid burns at Chris but he was deflecting them easily, however he had no chance to attack.
Bianca was not doing so well on the other hand, Jarvis's roots were choking her until she fell unconscious and he had placed a spell on her so she could not shimmer out.
Prue instructed Petra to help Bianca while she took care of Lily, 'ok time to reveal my new power she said to herself'
Lily sent a powerful wave her way and she simply jumped into the air and kept on going, (yep she can fly!)
Prue was hovering just out of Lily's reach, everyone was shocked and staring at Prue open mouthed, all except for her family and the training masters who were chuckling at the looks on the students faces.
Prue aimed a small blast at an open mouth lily knocking her to the ground she quickly flew to the wall pulled off a spear and placed it at lily's throat, "yield?" she asked softly.
Lily nodded carefully and Prue helped her up.
Just as she turned around to rejoin the fight a stream of acid hit her in the chest knocking her to the ground and burning badly, just before she passed out she aimed her hands and blew will into a wall then quickly blew up Jarvis's plant, then she passed out.
Wyatt scooped her up and took his baby sister for healing.
Now things were finally even Bianca was determined to get her own back, an atheme flashed into her hand and she shimmered away, not re-appearing Jarvis turned to Chris who sent him flying into a wall.
Just as he hit the stone Bianca re-appeared and pressed the atheme to his throat.
Jarvis stomped his foot and the ground shook wildly throwing Chris onto the floor then tying him to it with little creepers (there a sort of plant).
Chris tried to orb but they seemed to be Whitelighter proof.
Bianca was in worse shape he had elbowed her in the eye and had her knife pressed against her throat.
"No!" yelled Chris and somehow found the strength to break his arm free and send the knife flying away from Jarvis's hand, he then orbed over to Bianca grabbed her and orbed her a safe distance away.
Jarvis had gone red by now he was constantly being thwarted, suddenly as he stepped forward with a menacing look in his eyes he went flying. Prue had woken up and had blasted him.
"MISS HALLIWELL UNACCEPTABLE!" yelled the twins in unison
Prue looked away, trying to look ashamed but was secretly pleased.
Surprisingly the teachers did not yell at her anymore they had both seen the look in that boy's eye as well as Prue.
Wyatt had a small frown on his face as he only got when he was thinking heavily.
Chris and Bianca were walking back to the group and they both embraced Prue and thanked her when they reached it, both needed healing, after Wyatt had done Bianca he started on his brother and leant over him.
"Funny little bro, I thought you had eyes only for Stacey"
Chris looked up at his brother looking confused, "I do only have eyes for her"
Wyatt raised his eyebrows, "really? Because when Lucy froze Stacey you looked agitated but when Bianca was in trouble you got the look of protection and caring on your face that you only get when someone is bullying Prue"
Chris just looked confused, "Wyatt your wrong ok, drop it, I cant stand Bianca she drives me nuts"
Then he walked over to Stacey and started asking her if she was ok.
For the rest of the combat lesson they simply did the youngest battling each other.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Bianca wanted to and thank Chris for his help but he spent the entire lesson talking to some girl...Stacey she thought she was called.
He had not even checked to see if she was ok, this annoyed her slightly but she did not really know why.
She flicked her slightly longer then shoulder length dark brown hair with slight blond high lights over her shoulder and stretched her long tanned legs (she was wearing black shorts and a tight black t-shirt) and put on her most flirtatious smile, within seconds she had four boys from Chris's year hanging around her.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Chris was overjoyed he had been talking to Stacey for ages, and they still had over half a lesson left!
Stacey was telling him how grateful she was that he thawed her out and how brave she thought he was for taking on Jarvis and saving 'that new nasty demon girl'
He had frowned slightly at this but dint say anything, he dint want to upset Stacey, as she was talking about…something that he couldn't quite remember he looked over her shoulder and say Bianca sitting with riley, forest and finly crowded around her.
This panged him, he wasn't quite sure why, so he shrugged it off saying to himself it was because he was concerned that his friends were being seduced by the bitch.
He scratched his head and looked over his shoulder to see who was fighting now and saw something that made him freeze, Prue was standing talking to a boy!
He nearly had a heart attack, what if he knocked her up and left her with nowhere to go.
He was going to put a stop to the obscene display right now! They were in public for crying out loud!
Chris started elbowing his way forward and suddenly he was rugby tackled to the floor.
He turned to see who was lying on top of him and was met by a pair of tawny caramel eyes, his eyes widened and he went furiously scarlet and he pushed her off.
"What are you doing!" he whispered frantically
"Stopping you!"
"Prue and Petra are my only friends at this school and you're about to embarrass Prue when she's making a new friend!"
"They're practically having sex on the floor!!!" he said pointing at his little sister who was wearing a bland expression with her arms folded, making random small talk with Seth.
Bianca glanced at them then back at Chris with her eyebrows raised "ok…then" she said taking a deep breath and looking at him like he was a retard.
"Prue is just talking to this boy, Prue has no romantic feeling for this boy, Prue likes someone else" she said very slowly making hand gestures as she spoke
"Understand?"
Chris gave her a glare, "Ha, ha very funny" then he turned around and walked back to Stacey
It was only much later on that night after he had gotten into bed that he realised something, he quickly sat up in bed "she likes someone!?!?!?!?!?!"
