IT WAS A COLD WINTER DAY
as me, connie, and sidney all walked to our 'rink' which was just a frozen lake.
"So your coach really just canceled practice because devin was sick?" Connie asked.

"Yep, we all know that devi is the star player." I rolled my eyes.

"Okay! Who cares about her let's get going!" Sidney yelled as she dragged me and Connie's arms to the bench. Then we started to put our skates on.

Once we started playing, I laughed to myself noticing how bad we really were.

"Keep it down please!" Goldberg yelled as we shot pucks at him.

"Goldberg! Relax man your a goalie!" I laughed.

"Yeah Goldberg! Your the goalie it's supposed to hit you." Charlie stated.

"Does that sound stupid to anyone else?" Goldberg scoffed.

"Nope goalie." I smiled as I skated past him.

We then noticed a limo come onto the ice.

"Man that guys crazy." I muttered to Connie, as she nodded.

We then started to skate over, and the limo stoped.

A tall man, wearing a suit then stepped out.

"Yo, dude. You obviously in the wrong hood. This is my dominion." Jesse stated as we nodded in agreement then he continued.

"This a drug free zone you understand? We ain't buying nothing. Y'know, I'm feeling generous today, so imma let you get your sorry vanilla booty outta here. Before we be using your eyeballs as hockey pucks." He said as we all laughed.

"Thanks bro. But I'm not leaving until I take care of business." The man said as he started to pull something out of his jacket.

We all stepped back as some said "he has a gun."

Once we saw that he had a piece of paper, we sighed in relief as we skated back.

"District five, peewee hockey team, I'm Gordon Bombay your "new coach." The man said.

"Yeah right!" Jesse scoffed as we laughed at this statement.

"afraid so dude." He said as he unfolded the paper.

"Got the roster right here.
Averman, Dave
Conway, Charlie
Roberts, Cortney
Hall, terry." He said.

"Now here's the long of the short of it. I hate hockey and I don't like kids." He stated.

"Great pep talk coach." I rolled my eyes.

"Look, I'm sure this will be a real bonding experience. Maybe one day, one of you will even write a book about it in jail. Is there a goalie?" He said as I looked at Goldberg.
