General Dianne Beckman walked towards the trio who were sitting in her waiting room. It was late and she knew they wanted to know what was going on. She motioned for them to follow her into her office. They walked in and sat down. Beckman grabbed three files and gave one to each person.
"They wanted you dead," Beckman said. "You are going somewhere safe. All you need to know is in the file. Your plane leaves in half an hour. You are to take nothing with you. I will be in contact again soon." Beckman handed them each a case and then she left.
The trio were on a private plane off the coast of the US when they started looking over the files they had been given. There were new passports, licences, and new identities for the trio. They were to be living in Australia and they were to become the Carmichael family.
Chuck placed his hand on top of Sarah's. He wasn't happy having to leave his family behind, but he was so happy that he got to have his beautiful wife beside him. And who knew, maybe Casey would change and they would actually get along for once.
Sarah looked up at her husband and smiled. Casey grunted at the exchange but couldn't help but be glad that he was not going to have to hear all the soppy sad stories if the pair had been split up. He had to admit that he kinda liked the idiot now.
"I guess this is a fresh start," Chuck said. "Away from the spy industry."
"I would not guarantee that, Agent Carmichael," General Beckman said. "You will still be involved in the spy industry, but it will not be as full-on as it was in Burbank."
"Oh," Chuck said.
"How do you mean not as full-on?" Sarah asked.
"You won't have a mission for a while. It will give you time to settle in. There will be a car waiting for you at the airport. That car will take you to your new house. There is a new 'Castle' there which is underground. There is an entrance in the garage that is well hidden."
"Are we living together?" Casey asked.
"Yes. It will make it a lot easier, as the place that has been selected is a farm. It is a little out of Melbourne and has a lot of space. There is another file in your case which has pictures of the house...and Agent Walker, there is some information in there that I think will be useful."
Chuck looked at Sarah and Sarah looked at the General, confused.
"That is all. I will contact you again tomorrow," Beckman said as she ended the call. The three stood up and grabbed their cases. They grabbed the files out and when Chuck saw the house, he looked shocked.
"WOAH! This house is massive!" Chuck said looking at the picture. Casey grunted in approval. Chuck looked over to Sarah, who was staring wide eyed at a piece of paper in her hands.
"Sarah, you okay?" Chuck asked walking over to Sarah. Sarah handed Chuck the piece of paper and he read what it said. Chuck looked at Sarah who nodded and then he looked a Casey before he hit the ground, out like a light.
"Moron," Casey said. "Congratulations."
"How did you know?" Sarah asked.
"Just did," Casey said. Sarah nodded. She carefully lifted Chuck onto the couch with the help of Casey.
-CHUCK-
12 YEARS LATER
Casey was in the kitchen when he could hear footsteps. He turned around just into to see Chuck chasing his youngest daughter Macey through the kitchen. Casey smiled. In the 12 years since moving to Melbourne he had actually grown to like the idea of being called Uncle Casey.
Chuck and Sarah had three kids with another on the way. Their oldest daughter Olivia was 12 their middle child and only son Jakob was 8 and their youngest Macey was 3 and a half. Chuck and Sarah had told their kids the truth about who they were and what they did. Macey did not understand it, but Liv and Jake did.
"Casey, grab her!" Chuck said with a grin as he ran after Macey. Casey looked at the little girl and quickly picked her up.
"UNCLE CASEY!" Macey screamed with a giggle. Sarah walked into the kitchen with Liv and Jake. The two older kids sat down at the kitchen table while Casey put Macey down, and she too climbed onto one of the chairs at the kitchen table.
Sarah walked over to the kitchen counter and grabbed the pancakes she and Chuck had made earlier. They were chocolate chip and the kids loved them. Jake, Liv and Casey dug in, while Chuck cut some pancakes up for Macey. Sarah sat down and began to eat her own breakfast.
"So what's on for the day?" Chuck asked.
"I have netball try-outs all day," Liv said as she took a sip from her orange juice. Chuck nodded.
"Oh yeah. That's for the Academy isn't it?" Chuck asked. Liv nodded. Olivia had attended the Victorian Netball Academy since she was old enough to play. She and her best friend Bella Olsen had been the youngest girls accepted into the Academy and they loved it.
"What about you, Jakey?" Chuck asked.
"Uncle Casey said he's gonna spend the day with me," Jake said with a massive grin. Jake loved spending time with Casey because it usually meant that Casey would teach him how to fight or play video games with him or kick the footy.
"Who's taking me to netball?" Liv asked.
"We are," Sarah said pointing to Chuck as well. "We have to pick Bella up on the way and then we are going to go shopping for the nursery," Sarah said. Liv nodded.
Once the kids had finished their breakfast Chuck picked Macey up to get her washed up and dressed for the day. Liv headed upstairs to get dressed herself while Casey and Jake headed for the games room. Twenty minutes later the girls were dressed and ready and to go. Chuck and Sarah walked downstairs not long after.
"Okay girls lets go," Chuck said. "Casey, Jake! We're leaving now!" Chuck yelled out for Casey and Jake to hear.
"OKAY!" Casey yelled back. Chuck grabbed the car keys and they headed out the door.
-CHUCK-
Sarah and Chuck walked into the Victorian Netball Academy Arena with Liv, Bella and Macey. Liv and Bella ran over to their friends while Chuck, Macey and Sarah walked over to the other mums and dads. The two Academy coaches Vanessa Williams and Abbey Linton were standing their talking to the other parents.
"Hey Sarah, hey Chuck," Abbey said. "And hello there Miss Macey," Abbey said with a smile. Everyone loved Macey because she was adorable.
"Hi," Macey said shyly. Macey was as outgoing as ever when she was at home, but when she got around other people she got really shy.
"Hey Abbey," Chuck said.
"How are things?" Vanessa asked.
"Pretty good," Chuck said.
"How long have you got left?" Abbey asked pointing to Sarah's belly.
"Three months but if the other three births are any guide it will probably be earlier," Sarah said with a smile. All three of her kids had been born early.
"Are the kids excited?" Vanessa asked. Chuck nodded.
"Well I don't know about Liv and Jake but Mace certainly is. Aren't ya Mace?" Chuck asked his youngest. Macey nodded her head.
"Yep! I am really excited and I gets to go shopping today!" Macey said with a massive smile. Abbey and Vanessa laughed.
"Okay well we better get these girls organized," Vanessa said. "It may take a while seeing the numbers we have this year." Vanessa was right. There were about 50 girls with only 32 spots. There were 10 girls for the Senior Squad team. 10 for the Junior Squad team and then 12 for the training Squad team.
"OKAY!" Abbey yelled so she could get all the girls attention. When all the girls looked at Abbey and Vanessa they got the girls to sit down.
"Okay so this is how today is going to work. There are 32 spots available. We will pick the 32 girls and then we will watch those girls try out. Then they will pick the top 10 girls for the Senior Squad. The next 10 girls will be picked for the Junior Squad and then the remaining girls will be the training squad," Abbey said.
"The girls that were here last year, there is no guarantee that you will be the teams this year. Also girls, please don't be disappointed if you are not in the team. It does not mean that you aren't a good netballer because it is an honour just to get asked to try-out because this is the Victorian Netball Academy. The girls that do get selected to come here have more of a chance of getting into the Victorian and Australian Squad teams," Vanessa said.
"So let's get started. Follow the girls that were here last year and go for a run and make sure you stretch. NO INJURIES!" Abbey said. The girls left for their run. When the girls came back they stretched and then they were on the court.
Sarah, Chuck and Macey arrived back at the Arena in time for the announcements as to who was in each team. They had spent the day shopping and picked out a lot of furniture for the nursery. Macey was a big help and fell asleep halfway through the day so Chuck carried her.
"Okay so girls when your name is called out please stand up and come and collect a shirt and a pack from one of us," Vanessa said. "The first team we are going to call out is the Senior Squad team. So if you hear your name like I said please stand up. Mardi O'Laughlin, Darcie Tucker, Isabelle Tucker, India Parker, Jazmine Davidson, Lily Graey, Carla Delahunty, Ellie Tyson with the two captains Olivia Carmichael and Bella Olsen," Vanessa said. The girls all stood up and grabbed their shirts and their packs. They stood as a group.
"Congratulations, girls! And the Junior Squad members are...Paige Williams, Izzie Andrews, Kayla Hobbs, Jacqui Williams, Shauna Grayson, Hanna Greg, Serena Finch, Jaymi Anderson, with captains Georgia Yannos and Gracie Dolton," Abbey said.
"The remaining girls, you are in the training squad. Congratulations and well done to all of you because you will be attending school here at the Victorian Netball Academy and will be hard at work, training most days," Vanessa said. "So girls, go home get some sleep because there is only a week before school starts and when it does, you girls will be training hard."
Liv turned around and saw that Sarah, Chuck and Macey were standing with Bella's mum and little brother Tucker. Liv smiled as Chuck put Macey down and she ran over to her. Liv picked Macey up.
"Hey Mace," Liv said.
"Did you get Livi?" Macey asked.
"What do you mean did you get in? Do you have no faith in me Macey Grace?" Liv asked. Macey laughed. "Of course I got in!" Liv said with a grin. Bella laughed. The three girls started to walk towards their parents.
"Did you get in Bella?" Macey asked. Bella nodded.
"Yep. I'm in the same team as Liv," Bella said with a smile. The three girls reached their parents and Bella was pulled into a hug by her mum and Chuck and Sarah pulled Liv into a hug.
"DADDY!" Macey said with a giggle. "You're squashing me!" Chuck laughed and tickled Macey.
"Congratulations, Livi!" Sarah said giving her daughter a kiss on the cheek.
"Thanks, Mum," Liv said with a grin.
"While we're here, do you have to get a new uniform?" Chuck asked.
"Um I don't know because I think that we get a different uniform this year. I'll ask Abbey," Liv said as she got Abbey's attention.
"What's up, Livi Girl?" Abbey asked.
"The uniform this year, is it different?" Liv asked. Abbey nodded.
"Yes it is. Come and I'll show you," Abbey said. "It's basically the Adidas trackies and there's a hoddie with a white polo shirt that will have your name on it. We actually have yours here because we ordered them for the girls that were there last year and good that would be there again this year," Abbey said.
"Okay, thanks," Liv said as she and her family as well as Bella and her family followed Abbey towards where the uniform and memorabilia was kept. Abbey pulled out the uniform hoddie and the t-shirts. The t-shirts were white with the girl's last names on the back with their nickname or name on the front left corner under the logo.
"Can you try this on please Liv? We weren't sure on the size so we have two sizes in your name and the same with you Bella," Abbey said. The girls nodded and took their tops and walked into the change rooms. They quickly changed and tried their tops on. They walked out to show their tops off.
"They are both the right sizes. The other two I don't think are much bigger so if you wanted to you could probably take both sizes because I know in winter you wear a long sleeve under them," Abbey said. The two girls nodded and went to try their other tops on.
Like Abbey had said they weren't much bigger. They showed them to their mums and they agreed with Abbey to take both sizes.
"The hoodies you won't get till next week because we're getting your names put on them but we weren't sure on sizes so if you try one on you should be able to get it first day," Abbey said.
"What name are we having?" Bella asked.
"We were gonna do the same as your shirts. Last name on the back and first name or nickname on the front," Abbey said.
"This year is gonna be awesome!" Liv said with a smile. Chuck had a small sad smile on his face like he always did whenever the word 'Awesome' was used. It reminded him of the brother-in-law he had left in Burbank that thought he was dead.
"Yes, it will be. We have good teams and Ness and I cannot wait till we go to competition," Abbey said with a smile.
"We should win this year," Liv said.
"We would've if they hadn't injured you and Indi," Bella said. "I mean we only lost by a goal in extra time but can you imagine if we had our full team?" Bella asked. "We would have flogged!" Bella said with a laugh. Abbey smiled.
"We'll get them this year," Abbey said with a grin. The girls smiled. They couldn't wait till they got to start playing.
-CHUCK-
When Chuck, Sarah, Liv and Macey got home they found that Casey and Jake had ordered Pizza's for the family and that they had got everything ready for tea. Sarah got Macey settled and ready for tea while Liv took her netball gear up to her room.
"So how was your day Jake?" Sarah asked, knowing there was going to be some sort of fight training.
"Well Uncle Casey taught me some more Kung Fu and we played soccer and we took Rocco for a walk and then we played COD and then we got pizza!" Jake said with a massive grin. He loved the family dog Rocco. Rocco was a Husky and very protective of all the Carmichael family members.
"How did you try out's go Liv?" Casey asked.
"I got into the Senior Squad team and Bella and I were picked as Captains," Liv said with a grin.
"That's not bad considering you're meant to be in the Junior Squad team still," Casey said with a chuckle. Liv nodded her head and smiled.
"Will you come to my first game?" She asked Casey. Casey was not a fan of netball and was defiantly not a fan of either umpires or rough players. Or both for that matter. During one match Olivia played on a particularly rough player and Casey was ready to punch her lights out.
The sad thing was that the girl's parents were cheering her and encouraging her roughness. Casey had a few stern words for her and cheered the loudest when Liv got her revenge and the girl was taken off court with a broken cheek bone.
"Uh, sure. Will that girl be playing?" Casey asked. Liv shrugged.
"I don't know. Every team complained about her heaps though and someone said she was suspended," Liv said with a shrug. Casey smiled. As long as he didn't have to put up with her anymore, or her annoying parents.
