Guy Germaine POV:
After Adam was taken to the hospital, we resumed play. The plan was to get the puck to Fulton so he could take his shot.
We skated hard and made sure none of the hawks could get in the way of Fulton. We checked every possible player and made sure each and everyone was out do the way. And rested exactly what we did. Fulton stood before the goal and accepted the puck, he wound up and took 1 big swing at the puck, and to no one's surprise, he scored! We were finally getting back on track.
That didn't last long. Before we knew it, one of the Hawks,Blake, was able to maneuver the other out defense and score another goal. Thankfully, coach had a plan to get us back into the game. He decided to put Tammy and Tommy's figures skating skills to use.
He put the two of them on the ice and they were ready. The puck was dropped and Indie got possession of the puck. She skated down the ice with Tommy ahead of her just a bit. She passed the puck to Tommy as Tammy begin to spin, distracting all The Hawks. They just stared at her as their coach yelled at them.
"Now!" Tommy yelled. Tammy abruptly stopped and Tommy passed to her, she spun around half way and put the puck in the net. The team cheered. This is what we needed. Motivation.
Tammy skated gracefully back to the bench until McGill pushed her from behind.
"I'm on, coach." Fulton declared. He skated over to McGill and flipped him backwards over the boards. The entire team started pushing him u til the ref walked over and declared he was out of the game.
"I'm off, coach."
"He barely touched him!" Coach defended.
"I told him." I heard Indie say to herself.
"Told him what?" I asked her.
"That he would get his ass handed to him one day, and I wouldn't do a thing to stop it." She smiled proudly to herself.
"Oreo line." Coach called our while approaching me,Terry, and Jesse. "I want you to remember what we learned. Ducks fly together, right?"
"Yeah!" We answered proudly.
"So let's see it! Show me the flying "V"."
"Alright!" We answered confidently.
"Alright. Line change!" He called out.
We all got into positions and when the puck was dropped, we made our way behind our goal.
"Flying V!" Jesse called out. The entire team got into a V formation and skated down the ice. Indie passed the puck down to me, then I passed it to Terry, then he passed it all the way up front to Jesse, and without fail he scored! We all jumped up and down as the Flying V had worked, even though it was the first time we had ever used it in a game. We were tied with the Hawks. We only needed one more goal, it was manageable. We all crowded around Coach to hear the plan.
We took our places on the ice for the last time that night. It was such a tight game that the Hawks were playing even dirtier. The puck made its way to Charlie and he raced down the ice. Right before he made it to shoot, the Hawks wrongfully knocked him down from behind.
Bombay made a fuss, but their was no more time on the clocks, so the ref called a penalty shot. Anyone on the ice could take it.
"Alright ducks, who's gonna take it?" Coach asked. Murmurs from the team all bonded together making it hard to hear anyone suggestions.
"I think Guy should take it." Connie declared.
"Me?" I did not wanna take it. Too much pressure. "What about Indie?"
"What?" She asked in disbelief. "No way. I think Charlie should take it."
"Yeah." Bombay remarked. "What about Charlie?"
"What about Charlie?" Karp asked snobbishly. "All he does is fan."
"Let's let him finish what he started." Coach announced.
"Coach, we have a chance to win." Charlie noted sheepishly.
"Damn straight we do. Come here. You been practising that triple deke?"
"Yeah." He answered
"Then you're all set. You may make it, you may not. But that doesn't matter, Charlie. What matters is that we're here. Look around. Whoever thought we'd make it this far?One, two, three.Triple deke.Take your best shot. I believe in you, Charlie,win or lose." Charlie smiled at coach and nodded.
He got onto the ice and looked back at Bombay for one more look of approval. He started down the ice with the puck just infront of him.
"That's one..." I heard Indie say behind me. He skated further.
"Two.." she counted again. He glided closed to the goal.
"And...three." He pauses for a moment before shooting. And in that moment it felt as if everyone in the arena held their breath. No one let that breath go until we heard the siren indicating that we had won!
Everyone jumped onto the ice and began to jump around and celebrate. We all hugged and laughed. We had beat the Hawks! For the first time ever! It was so surreal. I jumped with Connie then stopped and kissed her right on the lips and she kissed back. Her face went bright red. We then skated around to our other teammates and cheered with them.
I saw Indie standing alone, looking around,waiting for someone to celebrate with, so I skated over to her. She usually would have Adam to cheer with but he wasn't there. I felt really bad for her. Her one best friend wasn't even here to be with her.
"Hey." I said.
"Hey.." she muttered. "You were amazing today."
"Thanks." I smiled at her "So were you. I mean you were beyond amazing."
I saw her nose crinkle as she started to smile.
"I'm really happy we're friends again." She voiced shyly.
"Friends?" I asked.
"If you wanna be." She replied.
"Friends." I said with a smile. We then looked at each other and engulfed one another in a tight hug.
"You have no idea how long I've been waiting to do this.." She remarked as we pulled away.
"What? Humble the Hawks?"
"No. Although that was very satisfying. But I meant you have no idea how long I've been waiting to call you my friend again." I looked down at her big green eyes and button nose.
"Me too,Indie. Me too." We hugged again and this time we started for longer. "Wanna come over for dinner tonight?"
"You already know." She answered with a huge smile on her face.
