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.

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. Phoenix was the only one who knew about everything. The kids, her sister, her parents, all of it. Pheonix had watched her break down over and over and over, but she didn't realize how much it might have hurt her to see the one person she had loved her whole life. "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.
Going To Williamsport
What would you do if you were the 12 year-old new ace pitcher of a very small town American baseball team, you and your teammates go on in one magical year to represent your roots at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and you were much too embarrassed beyond mere words to see your own mother cheer you on as you take the big stage hundreds of miles away? This is Sooner's situation, and his story for the ages is Going to Williamsport, as he faces a mother suffering through acute paranoid psychosis, or just simply really crazy things, in the early years of deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill during the Eisenhower administration. As the awkward moments pile up, the dirty looks and misunderstandings multiply in town, and the psychotropic drugs and Demedication sessions gather endlessly without the option to "just put her away" anymore, the only child Sooner only sees his own embarrassment and severe contempt for a Semper Fi father who will not deny his marriage vows, nor his unbelievable love for his own son. Going to Williamsport matters more than anything to Sooner, but definitely not at the expense of seeing "her" in those stands. In his own very young words, he takes as much as he possibly can, and then makes incredibly clear in the clearest of places that he alone, with his team is going to Williamsport, and Dad isn't and certainly Mom isn't, either. Sooner's story plays out as a kid farther away from the far western Oklahoma Panhandle than he's ever been. Sooner rather than later, his decision to be separate and apart from Mom and Dad is rewarded in surprising ways, but to everyone's surprise, Sooner understands very quickly how his family coin truly has two sides that look surprisingly alike.Complet
Heirs And Hunters
"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.

Just thought I'd let you know.
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.Complet
