Rosemary Vickson has had a tough life. She was born into a family of skaters. Currently her brother is a Olympian who has never gotten below bronze and her mother and father own Vickson Mills Rink and they are both coaches at the exclusive (only the best of the best can skate there) Vickson Mills Rink. To get into Vickson Mills Rink you either have to pay loads of money or audition (but mind you the judges are tough). At a young age Rosemary or Rose for short had always refused to skated, so at the age of 5 her parents disowned her telling everybody she died and locked her in the attic with water and bread. When Ariana Winston, Rose's babysitter found out that Rose was still alive she immediately took her by her side. Ariana was only 19 when she took Rose in but she still played the mother role for Rose.
Now 12 years later Rose is know as Thea Winston, the best skater at Winston Rink. Winston Rink is owned by Ariana's parents and unlike Vickson Mills Rink, anybody can skate at Winston Rink. It was built for everybody to experience what its like to skate.
Thea's goal is to compete in the next Olympics which is in 2 years. She's got the creativity needed and the skills but the city has a weird rule; if you want to compete for the Olympics you have to attend the Vickson Mills Rink Summer Camp. Which you can't pay to get in only audition and the audition judges for the camp are even more strict.
Thea could easily pass the auditions but she doesn't want to face her parents or her brother who trains there too and the terrible memories of when she was younger of her parents forcing her onto the rink.
Thea decides that she's going to have to be brave and hope that her so called parents don't recognise her.
After all people give up lots to go to the Olympics.

The Boston Experiment
There's a lab below TD Garden, a sports arena in Boston, Massachusetts. The owners of the arena know about it, but it is secret to the public. Why is this lab there? For genetic engineering, of course. In this lab, babies are made specifically to be NHL goaltenders. It is not a choice. No one can refuse. Once-famous hockey player Bobby Orr, the head of goalie-making (a science he has been doing since 1982), is the one who runs this inhumane practice. He believes that the NHL's goaltenders have become too awful, and the league is going from professional to pee-wee. It needs more goalies. It always needs more goalies. ******************** Tuukka Rask, also known as G0340, is "born" in Boston on March 10, 1987. Of course, the public must not know this, so Tuukka's place of birth is listed as Savonlinna. This city is in "Finland," another lie that the public blindly believes. Bobby Orr pays a lot of attention to Tuukka, especially because he made a few mistakes making the genotype that could cause problems. However, by 18, the goalie is ready to play in the NHL, completely unaware that his childhood was spent in a lab thanks to implanted false memories. He is sent to the Toronto Maple Leafs in order to be tested, then traded back to the Boston Bruins so his career can officially begin. One day in 2017, Tuukka's 11-year-old daughter, Sinikka, stumbles across a door that her mother told her about. The door is unlocked. A scanner glued to the front panel is broken. Sinikka opens the door and discovers that her mother was telling the truth and that her father's whole childhood was a lie. She immediately tells Tuukka about her astounding discovery. What will Tuukka do? ~COMPLETED!~ Word count: about 16k NOTE: I got this idea from a comment on a Reddit thread about the best goaltenders in the NHL. Also, the Finland not existing thing is satire, LOL.Complete
Maelstrom|Book 5| A novel in the Blue Moon series| An Avengers fan fiction series|
Being a teenager is hard. But being a pyrokinetic, telekinetic teenager with the prospect of an entire throne to Asgard, is even harder. It's been a really lonely summer for Thea, what with Jack away at the Volare camp and not speaking to her, and Peter with him. She's spent her time practicing her powers, taking special tests for Umber Academy, and messing up the occasional date. What's more, Neidra is still on the horizon, raising an army in order to take the Asgardian throne, and threatening everything Thea holds dear. While at Umber Academy, Thea tries to push these thoughts and troubles away and focus on being a normal high school student. Thea knows how to fight sorceresses and monsters, but the world of bratty girls, high school classes, and scorned love, is a whole new fight for her. But being "normal" is never part of the equation at Umber Academy, although Thea is even less than normal. And everyone around her seems to have a secret. Jack, with new powers of his own, is pulling away from her. Loki is still in prison. And Max is keeping something from her, something she with all her powers of manipulation can't get out of him. All of this sends a spiral into Thea's world, a torrential storm that can only end in turmoil and the thirst for revenge.Complete

FIGHT OR FLIGHT - B. Bradshaw
C H A N C E: do (something) despite its being dangerous or of uncertain outcome "You walked out on me! No text, call, or letter! Nothing! I just woke up one day and you were gone!" Rooster yelled at her. She stood there in pain from just seeing him, Rosemary couldn't look at him without seeing her mistakes. "I didn't mean to hurt you... I-I just couldn't say goodbye because if I did I never would have left. I have 3 children now because of my sister's death. I wasn't going to drag you along with that. You were already set back so much from Maverick and the hatred you had towards him, was something I didn't want. If I held you back then you would have hated me too," a few tears rolled down her face as she looked at his shoes. She couldn't bare to look up at him. He shook his head as he exhaled out trying to calm down. "But I would have never hated you. I can't hate you. It bothers me that I haven't been able to hate you for walking out on me... and then you have to hide with all the pain... I just wished you told me," he told her and took a step closer. She had looked up at him and her heart shattered even more. The whole group was there watching there fight but didn't even have words for any of it.

"I'm sorry, Bradley but I have to go," she turned around and passed the whole group. She didn't bare to change in the lockers but headed straight to her car.

Ice & Prejudice
Victoria 'Ria' Winters is the youngest out of all her quadruplet sisters; the one with the dark humor and haunting past. That's why she worked so hard for scholarships abroad to get as far away as possible. All her sisters had their own challenges, but nothing compared to Ria's past.

Now, three years later, Ria has rebuild her life at one of the best universities in the world, focused solely on her studies and her future.

Forced to work together Victoria and Nikolai's mutual hatred ignites into a battle of wills. There sessions are a minefield of cutting remarks, icy glares, and unresolved anger. But beneath the venom, there's undeniable tension-attraction. Beneath the anger and hurt, they begin to uncover the truth about each other-and about Vlad.Complete
