(Iyana's POV)

'This is my moment, the big day has arrived.' I thought in my head as I got ready for my ballet studio's annual production. I worked for about a year trying to get my pointe just right and working on my leaps. Ms. Jones said I was improving rapidly with my fouette en tournant which in my mind made me think I was doing alot better than before. Me and the other girls were backstage getting ready for the performance when my friend Maria came up to me. Maria and I have been best friends since the ballet studio first opened when we were six. Now at sixteen, we're still the best of friends.

"Hey Ivy." Maria said, everyone calls me Ivy because they think it's more unique than calling me Ana. "You got everything ready?"

"Yeah, I have my costumes, shoes and everything." I told her.

"Great, and good luck with Jesse." Maria said winking at me. Jesse was one of our guy dancers in the ballet studio and he was picked to be the lead with me.

"Go get ready, crazy." I laughed at her and she left. Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my ankle. I have to ignore for now because the show is starting in ten minutes.

(Ten minutes later)

I got on stage and we immediately started the performance, everything was going great until I did my grand battement leading into the grand allegro. I landed wrong and heard something break. The other dancers crowded around me while Jesse and Maria were by my side.

"Ivy! What happened?" Maria said frantically.

"I think I broke my ankle." I whispered.

"Should we move her?" Jesse asked and everyone said don't. Luckly for me someone called the paramedics and rushed me to St. Anthony's Hospital. After a couple of hours there, my mom and dad where in my hospital room waiting on the doctor to come in.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Robins, I'm Doctor Daniels. Now I have Ivyana's X-Rays right here so let's take a look at them." Dr. Daniels turned on the machine and put my X-Ray pictures on it. Now I'm not a doctor or anything but what I saw made my worries true. "Ivyana fractured her ankle, she put severe force on her ankle joint when she came down from her leap. Also her fibula, which is this thin bone right here, is injured."

"Exactly how long will I have to be in a cast is my question Doc?" I asked him.

"You'll need to be off your ankle for at the most, three to four months but it depends on your recovery." Doctor Daniels said.

"Thanks Doctor Daniels." My dad said. My mom and dad turned their attention back to me.

"Ivy, while you recover, you aren't to dance or re-injure yourself again." My dad said to me.

"Oh please. As soon as I'm better, I'll be back at the studio in no time." I said but my mom stopped me there.

"That's what we're afraid of." My mom said.

(In Angel Grove: Tommy's POV)

Football season is about to start and I'm nervous about making the cut. Everyone knows I'm good at Martial Arts but I just want people, especially Kimberly, to see me in a new light. Ernie said he'd help me train so I'm excited yet nervous about it.

(An Hour Later)

"Good Job Tommy, you got passion." Ernie said, suddenly Ernie got a call on his phone and stepped away for a minute. When Ernie was done, he was laughing and in a very good mood.

"What's got you happy?" I asked curiously.

"My little cousin is coming to Angel Grove and she's not the least happy about it."

"Well how old is she?"

"She's sixteen, same as age as you." I was kinda surprised, I thought when he meant 'little cousin' I thought he meant she would be younger.

"Well why is she coming to Angel Grove?"

"She's recovering from an injury and her parents don't want her back at her ballet studio, they're older so they're a little 'coo coo'" Ernie said and I had to laugh.

(Ivyana's POV)

"I refuse! You can't make me give up dancing!" I shouted from my room. I locked the door so my parents couldn't come in.

"We're not saying give it up, we're saying you need a break so it was a good idea that you stay with cousin Ernie in Angel Grove." My mom said from the other side of the door.

"Where is that even at!" I shouted louder.

"In California dear." I had to take a minute and think, I've been in Indiana for a long time so maybe a new location would be good for me. Plus I don't have to deal with my overbearing parents.

"Fine, I'll go but only because I want to." I said. This might be a good idea.
