Practicing some basketball(open to all)

Polemistis was never really comfortable with his height. He had been the topic of many derogatory conversations, and it really got on his nerves. The one place where he truly felt comfortable was the basketball court. His immense height always gave him an advantage over most other players. He dribbled the ball experimentally and than walked to half court. He threw it up and noted where the arc of the ball was headed; turning around he grabbed another ball the instant the other ball fell through the net. Instead of continuing to throw he began to dribble again.

Amber walked out of the Muses cabin. The daughter of Terpsichore, Muse of Dance walked to the basketball courts, where she saw a tall really cute boy with black hair, She didn't see his eyes, He looked older than her so she didn't want to flirt with him, She wanted to make friends. Her friends for the 2 years here were eighter dead or just avoiding her, She was wearing a pink shirt, blue tennis, and denim shorts. She had her dark blond hair down, her blue-green eyes focused on the boy. She walked over to him. "Hey, mind if I can play?"

At the sound of the voice Polemistis turned around. A girl wearing a pink shirt and denim jeans was approaching him. Sure, although I wouldn't count on scoring any baskets. My name is Polemistis son of Ares, and you are?

He pulled his shades off his face and looked at her directly in the face. Without waiting for a responce he continued his dribbling, and tossed the ball towards her.

I'm ready when you are, we can get to know eachother better while we play.

The boy turned around and said sure and introduced himself as Polemistis, Son of Ares. He asked who she was. "The name is Amber Summers, daughter of Terpsichore, Muse of dance." She did a little dance and laughed a little cheerfully.

Polemistis took off his shades and tossed the ball to her. He told her he was ready when she was, and something else that Amber didn't hearm her stupid ADHD made hher look around distractevly.

"Sure, so how long have you been at camp, Polemistis?" She asked as she started to dribble the ball and run across the field and continued dribbling. She threw the ball up in the net but it bounced off and she ran to catch it, Finally catching it she handed it to Polemistis.

The girl, Amber, she called herself seemed friendly enough. He caught the ball and began to dribble. While jogging down to the otherside of the court he answered her.

I've been here for five years, but it feels longer. I'm a year rounder so I don't get to see much of the outside world. That seems to make time go by far slower than it should. By the way, I loved that dance.

He ran to the hoop and rolled the basketball into the hoop for a lay up. He caught the ball, and tossed it over to Amber.

Amber nodded with a smile. "Thanks I try," She teased with a chuckle. She caught the ball and started dribbling to the net.


"Really? I haven't seen you around much, I've been here for two years I mean camp is okay and I'm also a year rounder."

Amber finally shoot and it made it into the net, she smiled and did a backflip. She threw the ball to Polemistis. "How did you get here? Sorry for the questions I'm just curious, I mean you don't have to answer."

No need for apologies Amber. The truth of the matter is I was dropped off here by my mom. It was for my safety she said at the time. As for why you never see me, I spend alot of time working out so unless you frequent those places you won't see me. I like it better that way anyways.

He caught the ball as she tossed it to him, and threw it behind him without looking. The swish of the net was enough to let Pole know he had made the shot.
