"Come on make it a good one!" I shouted at Charlie who had just passed me the worst football throw i've ever seen.
"sorry." He shrugged.
We were getting warmed up for our game versing the cardinals.
"what the hell are they doing?" one of the players in the opposing team spoke as the 2 players skated in front of our end.
"Every time you get the puck, your a quarterback!" Coach said as we continued passing.
"make eye contact with the receiver!" Coach said.
we kept passing and talking.
"what a weird ass team." the same player said as the whole team laughed.
we watched in amazement as Fulton took shots on the goal.
"woah!" i said as i sat next to Goldberg with Karp on the other side of him.
the cardinals watched too. i could see the fear in their eyes as each shot either went in the net, in the crowd, or hit the wall and one even broke the glass.

"alright let's forget the past, we lost a few games. Tuff. That was district 5, now we're the ducks!" Coach said.
"yeah!" a few of us replied.
"and the ducks, are undefeated." said coach.
"ALL RIGHT! YEAH!" We all shouted, getting excited.
"quack, quack..." coach said as we all soon caught on.
"quack quack quack quack!" we all shouted.
"GOOOOOO DUCKS!!!!" we all yelled.
Charlie wrapped his hands around my neck as i found his waist.
we hugged tight.
"I think we're finally gonna be something other than the losers." i whispered.
"same." he said with a huge grin plastered on his face.
i hit a few of the boys helmets.

"Come on i need help here!" i said referring to defense. no one was helping me and the people who were fell our couldn't keep up.
Guy fell into the wall....again.
I thankfully saved the puck and passed it up to Tammy.
Who passed it to Karp.
he passed it to Jesse who scored.
we all tackled him in celebration.
"way to finish Jesse man!!!" i shouted.
we all went crazy.
"yes! the Oreo line!" Jesse yelled.
We skated to the Box and celebrated.
Charlie engulfed me in a hug.

"Come on Karp! get it!" i shouted as me and karp skated backwards, facing the Cardinal who had the puck.
Karp saved it....but got nocked out.
"OHHHH MAN!" i shouted.
we all skated to him and Coach came walking towards the poor boy.
"i don't wanna go to school today, mom!" Karp said as coach took off his helmet.
"Karp, how many fingers am i holding up?" Coach asked as he help up 4 fingers.
"he wouldn't know that anyway!" I joked.
"shut up Bree." he said with no hesitation.
"Karp, you ok?" Coach asked.
"look at this!" Guy said as he handed Coach Karps helmet that now had a big dent in it.
"The karp- ster used his head to stop the puck." Averman Announced.
"Mr. Karp-a-lanee." He said.
"shut up Averman!" i said.
"let's get you off the ice, come on." coach said as he helped Karp of up and to the box.
"that was something!" i chuckled to Peter.
"At least Karp did something useful!" Peter said.
we both laughed.
he looked like a rag doll and i was tempted to piss myself on how funny it was.
"ok ducks we still got a chance here!" Coach started.
"Connie, Terry, Jesse, Guy. time for the secret weapon." coach said referring to the lady liberty thing they've been working on.
"okay fulton. remember, just like we talked about." coach said.
"Come on guys! let's do it!" Peter encouraged.
we all cheered loudly as we got back to position.
we all patted fultons back and hit his helmet for encouragement.
The goalie on the Cardinals looked terrified.
"Go! get the face off!" Coach said.
i was on the bent with Peter, Tommy, Tammy, and Averman.
Guy was taking the face off and surprisingly won it.
he passed it back to Connie then to Fulton.
fulton got ready to take a shot so everyone on the cardinals skated out of the view of the goal including the goalie.
Connie took the puck from fulton and passed it up to Guy who shot and scored.
we all erupted with cheers, excited that we tied for the first time ever.

"dad, it was crazy!" i said as i got in the car.
"we tied 2-2 and Jesse and Guy got the goals!" I exclaimed.
"i'm glad your happy for your friends even tho you didn't score." my dad said.
"yeah, i had a few good shots tho!" i said.
"that's great. i'm proud to see you guys growing as individual players and a team as well." my dad said as he drove down the street.
