Disclaimer: Ok so I don't own Eyeshield 21 or any of it's characters (obviously). If I did though (I dont but I'm just saying), there would definitely be more HiruMamo moments out there. There just aren't enough of those "moments" in any of the shonen manga that i read. (Of course there would need to be a heck of a lot for me to be satisfied though XD). But enough of my complaining. Please read on and I hope my story doesn't disappoint!

White Chaos

They say that in the few seconds before you die, your entire life flashes before your eyes. Mamori could honestly say that in her case , this was completely untrue. In fact only one prominent image seemed to be stuck at the forefront of her brain. And that was a tree.

Flashback

"Mamo-nee, hurry up!", Deimon Devils Bats self appointed cheerleader yelled impatiently.

"Listen, Suzuna chan", Mamori gasped out of breath as she slowed to a stop beside the excited girl, "I really don't think this is safe. The slope is just frozen ice now after the rainfall we got last night."

Suzuna pouted. "It's fine Mamo-nee. The other slopes were ok."

"Yeah but those were a lot smaller", Mamori stated matter of factly.

"But Sena and the others went on it", Suzuna persevered.

"That's because Hiruma made them. And Hiruma loves putting others in situations where they're liable to injure themselves. I think he gets a good laugh at that." Mamori spoke her voiced edged in anger. "Ever since we got here he's been a ticking time bomb blowing up at the smallest of things. I mean yesterday he shot off his rocket launcher at Sena for chewing too loudly for petes sake!"

"Why is You-nii in such a foul mood though?", Suzuna questioned.

"I don't think he likes the cold." Mamori stated surprised at her own revelation and the fact that Hiruma had such a weakness. "The forecast for this trip was at least ten degrees off the mark. If he had known that would be the case, I don't think he would have scheduled this training excursion." Mamori's face lit up. "On the positive side, I like watching him bark out orders while wearing that ridiculous oversized winter coat. He looks like some fat demon snowman."

The two girls broke out laughing at the ridiculous image. When Suzuna had calmed down enough she looked up curiously at Mamori. "Mamo-nee, did you know that when you talk about You-nii you always have this really intense look on your face. He's the only one who gets you so riled up too. I think the reason why is really very obvious. You should just admit it."

Mamori sighed heavily. She had a feeling she knew where this was going. "Admit what Suzuna chan?"

Suzuna giggled and winked. "That you love him silly."

Mamori snorted and rolled her eyes into her head making sure to exaggerate the movement. "Your delusional Suzuna chan. That's absolutely impossible and I don't understand why you keep sticking to this absurd theory of yours. Who could ever love a devil like him? He's cruel, insufferable, irritable and-

"-and your head over heels in love with him", Suzuna finished knowingly as she gazed up into Mamori's face. She wasn't teasing anymore.

Mamori opened and closed her mouth a few times uncomfortable with Suzuna's serious gaze. After a few seconds of lapsed composure on the managers part, she quickly collected herself and crossed her arms before replying. "That's absolutely ridiculous Suzuna chan." The tone of her voice and expression on her face clearly stating that this topic was no longer open for discussion.

The petite cheerleader leaned in close to the managers face as she stared her down with observant calculating eyes. It didn't take long before she noticed Mamori shuffle her feet nervously and spot beads of perspiration slowly pop up on the older girls face despite the freezing temperatures. Suzuna knew why Mamori was getting nervous. She leaned back and mentally gave herself a pat on the back. Suzuna could always coax the pretty manager into revealing subtle hints that she liked the devilish captain. Hiruma however was a bit more difficult to read. She was sure that he must feel the same way though. Suzuna would have to figure out a way to get these two love birds to confess to each other. She giggled to herself as she imagined it. 'Mamo-nee would be the little sparrow and Hiruma would be the vulture. Wait… don't vultures eat sparrows….?'

"Suzuna chan…? Suzuna chan, why don't we just go back the way we came and meet up with the others at the lodge. It's already getting late", Mamori spoke as she noticed the slight darkening of the sky around them.

Suzuna broke out of her reverie and answered back slowly, a smile creeping up on her face. "Well, I guess. I mean I'm sure You-nii must be extremely worried at how late his pretty little manager is", she said adopting her slightly teasing tone of voice again. "But I don't want to take the long way around. I mean the sooner you can return into the arms of your big ,strong, handsome captain again, the better right? Sooo…." Suzuna nudged the manger playfully with her elbow.

Mamori's cerulean eyes widened in response to this statement and she felt her mouth open in a half gape, half smile. Instead of being perturbed by the outlandish comment though, she felt herself turning her head to hide her face. Her stomach was contracting painfully from suppressing the laughter threatening to explode out her throat. Suzuna grinned evilly and took this opportunity to lash out her hands and give the distracted manager an extremely hard shove right between the shoulder blades.

"SUZUNA CHAAAAN!?", Mamori's high pitched yelp rang out as she felt herself shoot forward suddenly before gravity brought her back down. Her reflexes kicked in automatically landing her in an upright position on both ski's. She then began accelerating down the trail at an alarming rate having missed her perfect opportunity to stop. That one small instant of pain she had automatically avoided in the beginning would probably cost her later on.

"I'LL BE RIGHT BEHIND YOU MAMO-NEEE!", Suzuna yelled through her gloved hands.

Mamori felt her throat close up at the thought of the younger girl on the dangerous trail. "N- NO! SUZUNA CHAN DON'T! TOO DANGEROUS!!" Thinking fast, Mamori immediately fell to her legs realizing the extra friction would stop her fall soon enough. She felt herself slowly begin to lose speed and was turning around to face Suzuna hoping the girl had heeded her advice when something caught her eye.

After squinting further ahead, her blood froze. She hadn't realized the path she was on had just curved to the left being so focused on her efforts to stop sliding out of control. The sheen on the ice reflected the darkening sky so well, Mamori could barely make out the cliff edge up ahead. She flipped onto her stomach and clawed desperately at the ground reaching for anything that might prevent her from sliding any further. Mamori let out a panicked whimper as she only came into contact with more smooth, unyielding ice.

Before she could think of anything else, the young manager felt her stomach jump into her chest as she sailed over the edge into a 50 foot descent. Blinding whiteness enveloped her completely and wiped out all her senses. A hopeless panicked sob escaped her chapped lips before her brain entirely shut down. The only image haunting her frozen mind was an upcoming tree and her inevitable impact with it's hard trunk. She closed her eyes tightly squeezing out a few hot tears before doing the only thing her numb mind could think of. She wrapped her trembling arms around her wind whipped hair and face and allowed herself one last hopeless sob before her world exploded into a flurry of white chaos.

YAY done!! Ok so that was the first chapter of my first fanfic XD R&R please!! I want to know if it's any good and if I should continue the story. If it's absolutely and horribly catastrophic though I wont. Any constructive criticism or advice you have will help me out a lot. I'd like to think I have good grammar, but if you see any grammar mistakes feel free to point them out too. THANX XD
