Milly Anderson The Mighty Ducks [Book 1]

The prank

"Guys I found one!" Karp says holding up a purse "Karp you finally found something for once in your life" peter says "no I found it he stole it" I say crawling out of the dumpster almost slipping as carp got helped out by Averman and peter "Lovely, Karp it goes with your eyes" Averman teases "you gonna take that from him, Karp?" Peter asks "no, remind me to bust your head, Averman" Karp threatens "oh please do, I'd like to see that" I agree "thanks peter thanks very much" Averman says. Then Charlie comes around into the ally way with a brown paper bag "did you get it?" Karp asks Charlie "yeah! Right there" Charlie drops the can of chilli onto his hand "yeah" Karp takes the chilli and turns "here, Peatie, here, boy. A little chilli to keep you warm, buddy" Karp says to a dog that lives down the alley "The warmer the better" I say rubbing my hands together and smirking. Peatie finishes the chilli and starts to eat the can as well "I guess he really was hungry" I say. We follow Peatie out of the alley and down the street "I can't belive he ate the can as well" peter exclaims "He sniffs." Averman starts to commentate "He sniffs again. Looking for that perfect place. He sniffs some more. He stops. I think this is it! Hes turning in a circle! He squats! He scores!" We all cheer and high five eachother. "would you like to do the honours Milly?" Karp says holding out the purse to me "You know, as much as I would love to I think I'll be nice and let Averman do this one, here" I pass the purse to Averman like I'm making the most kind gesture. He takes it solemnly and scoops in Peatie's poo with a stick that Charlie handed him. We walk down the street, Averman at the front holding the bag away from his face and blocking his nose "it stinks" he places the purse down in the snow and Charlie places the dollar bill hanging out of the top. We run behind a truck waiting for our victim. "oh, come on, stop" we all whisper as a car dives past, and it does "yes!" "Okay here we go" we all watch and wait a person steps out of the car and picks up the purse "yeah. There's more inside" Averman says "He's takin' off with it" Karp points out "This guy deserves what he gets" I say "sure does" Charlie agrees. As the car starts to drive away we run out on the the road to watch then the car stops and the guy throws the purse out of the window, we all start cracking up then peter stops "oh, guys he saw us" we run down the street as he starts chasing us and we climb over the fence into a construction site and over a plank of wood I look back to see the guy falling into the mud underneath he plank. When we get up a ladder to the roof of a shop we all cheer and high five.

"Bye Charlie" I wave as Charlie hops in the car with his mum "Milly, I called your mum and you can come home with us and I can drop you to training later, if you'd like?" Charlie's mum Casey asks "yeah sure, I'd love to" I get into the car and we drive to Charlie's house "hey mum we are going upstairs" Charlie says "Ok, come down in half an hour for food and then get ready for training, Milly your mum dropped of your gear it's just by the Door" Casey replies "Thank you Mrs Conway" I thank "Casey" she corrects "sorry Casey" I laugh then follow Charlie upstairs. "We should probably study for that science test that's coming up" I suggest "You mean the balls test? Nah it's like a week away we can study another time" I laugh at Charlie's response "hey my mum got me some new skates wanna see?" Charlie says and goes into his room, I follow and sit on his bed "look" he hands me a skate "wow it's pretty flashy where did you get em" I asked "I don't know, mum got them for me and didn't tell me where she got them" Charlie sat down next to me "I hope she didn't spend too much money on them" he continued "Well I'm sure she's glad she got them for you considering how much you love them" I laugh

"Yes! I win, let's go" I cheer after winning a board game against Charlie "you probably cheated" Charlie says "nope" I pull out a stack of money from my pocket "make it rain" I say throwing my money around "hey where did you get that money from?" Charlie asks "I found it on your pile of money while you were at the bathroom" I say "So you did cheat!" Charlie says "I win!" "Charlie, Milly come grab some food" Casey calls "race you" I run to the stairs and slide down the rail and Charlie pushes me over before I get to the kitchen and he beats me "hey that's not fair" I say "neither was that game, we're even now" Charlie shakes my hand to confirm. "Woah that smells so good" I turn to see hot chicken sandwiches on the table. I sit and start devouring the sandwich "thanks so much Casey" I say "That's ok, anytime, now you two get ready to go we're leaving in 10 minutes" Casey smiles then starts to gather her things. I finish brushing my hair into a ponytail and head down stairs "ok, we ready?" Casey asks "yeah we're good" Charlie answers for the both of us "Then let's go"

"Connie!" I run to Connie who is already on the ice but I don't have my skates on yet so I fall to the ground, Connie helps me up and we hug "So Connie..." I smirk "what?" "Hows it going with guy, any thing interesting?" I ask "no, I've told you this so many times he doesn't like me I've given up" Connie replies "what!? Are you blind! Don't you see the way he looks at you?! Call out to him" I say "what? Why?" "Just do it trust me "Fine" she sighs "hey, guy!" His head turns so quickly and he looks straight at Connie, his eyes light up and he smiles at her it's like nothing else in his world exists when he looks at Connie, I look back at her "Didn't you see how his eyes lit up when he looked at you" I explain "he does that for everyone" Connie replies "no he doesn't he never does it to me and I've never seen him look at anyone other than you like that" I try to convince her but she just shruggs. After putting my skates on I join terry who is shooting at Goldberg in the goals "keep it down please!" Goldberg calls as he gets hit with the pucks "hey, please, come on. There's no need for this. Let's talk come on. I'm your friend aren't I?" Goldberg continues "C'mon Goldberg, at least try to stop it. Cause I'm getting tired of chasing the puck" terry says frustrated "be careful, man it almost hit me that time" Goldberg complains. "Goldberg your the goalie its supposed to hit you" I turn and see Charlie standing behind me "yeah that's why your wearing all the padding" I agree "does that sound stupid to anyone else?" Goldberg asks then we skate to the middle of the rink where the whole team is huddled looking at something i follow their gaze and see a black car driving onto the ice towards us.
