A Teenage Dream (Mighty Ducks FanFic)

[Chapter 5] ~ Hotshot

"Hi, everybody. Welcome to today's game. This is a very important matchup, Team U.S.A. against Iceland in what could be a preview of the championship game. Iceland, coached by Wolf "The Dentist'' Stansson. He'll be taking on Gordon Bombay. Good luck, there, Coach. You'll sure need it." The real announcer stated as Jesse and gunner began the face-off.

Gunner said something in Icelandic in attempt to intimidate Jesse before the game began. Knocking Jesse down Gunner started skating towards the goal passing it to one of his teammates which soon got pushed by Dean "come on, fool. Get up!"

"You ran at him unprovoked" the ref called "huh?" Dean raised his hand shoving the ref down as well "calm down, son. Your out of the game" "give me a break!"

"You're throwin' him out? You can't do that! it's three seconds into the game!" Coach complained as Goldberg joined, missing a block "oh man, come on and get it. Wake up defense, I can't do this all by myself!"

Now Dwayne had the puck and was showing off "Yee -haw! Ahh!" He called falling down from some Icelanders push. "it's one-nothing iceland. Iceland outhitting and out-skating Team U.S.A all over the ice in the first period." The announcer continues "Their going to change it up and wow!" River finally on the ice skated as fast as she could towards Gunner.

"And here's River Evans she can really fly! Is this a chance for Team USA to get back in the game?" She checked him into the glass and she stole the puck. Spinning around skating to the Icelanders goal she managed to keep the puck blocking the opposing teammates from getting it. She looked like she knew what she was doing, she looked skillful and knew her way around them.

Making it a few feet from the goal she shot and she scored. "She shoots she scores!! First goal for team USA, is this game turning around?" "Alright yes!!" Coach yelled in excitement "yeah!" "Let's god Riv" "Rorryyy!" Her teammates exclaimed happy they finally got a goal.

Iceland looked mad, especially their coach. Charlie noticed him whispering something to one of his players, but he didn't think anything if it. The rest of the period was going horribly. River was still out on the ice drenched in sweat her face hot and a bit red from all the playing.

She was currently skating towards the glass barriers that surrounded the frozen water trying to get Charlie to pass the puck to her but him and Matt were struggling to even get it in their grasp. They were working together and made a small 3 person play but I wasn't exactly successful.

River and some Icelander made eye contact as she gives him a cold glare causing anyone goosebumps and shiver full of insecurities. Matt got the puck and now is passing it to River. She grabs a hold of it tossing it the air flipping it and patting it back down on the ice.

She starts skating around the net going to the Icelanders zone. But number 39 got in the way of that grabbing his friend number 13 along with him whispering in his ear. Looking back at their coach he nods and they quickly shove her as hard as they can into the boards causing a small crack in the glass where her torso was.

She managed to pass the puck quickly to Jesse with her skates. They get off of her, skating back to the USA zone as Coach yelled for a pause in the game. River skated to the bench while everyone surrounded her. She took her helmet off, the tips of her hair dripping sweat on to her face. She had a bloody nose and the check into the board looked painful. Her body was sore but she paid it no mind.

She let out a small grunt as coach grabbed her jawline, carefully observing the injury. There was a bruise slightly forming on the side of her jaw while her teammates squinted at the damage.
