The air was chilly. A blue haired girl tied in two pigtails with emerald eyes was skating in the ring. Her skates cutting perfect curves in its surface .Her navy blue which she always wears was flowing while she was skating. There were other skates in the ring but she was the best of them. She could hear them talking about them when she whirled by:

"That is Runo Misak . . . local skating star . . ."

". . . doing it all her life, since she was five . . ."

Runo leaned forward into a perfect spiral and the other skaters sigh

"Such buetiful lines "one of them said.

Runo was finding it hard to concentrate. She took a deep breath; it was the time for taking another jump. She knew her jumps were getting worse no matter how hard she tried. She stroked her way around the end of the rink and focused on her edges. Then Runo leaped . . . then a memory flashed through her mind. She twisted her ankle and came down too hard on the outside edge and then fell.

The spectators gasped

Runo, angry at herself got up, since the accident had happened she was afraid of doing jumps

" . . . . can't seem to land the double axel any more . . . " she heard one of the spectators say.

Runo blinked back tears. She couldn't hear them properly but she can tell that they were talking about her "and they are right "she thought I never used to have any problem with the double axel. I shoul be doing the triple by now. Why is it going wrong?

The air whistled past her as she picked up speed. It's not that hard you have done it before, a thousands of times. You can do it again

Runo prepared for the jump, She took a deep breath and jumped of the ice. But as soon her feet left her ground, she knew it wasn't right she couldn't hold her the position then suddenly her ankle twisted again and she fell down . . . again

She was angry at herself as she got up "runo are you ok?" her couch Amber asked her "you're still too tight you are tense she you jump you have to loosen when you" Runo sighed "those people are watching me all the time and talking about me I can't concentrate" Amber glanced over "they are always talking just ignore them"

"I can't "

"That's not the point Runo you are just too tired you look pale from the past few months you should rest" Amber said

"I am not tired"

"you are not go home and rest" Amber said she has been telling her this many times but Runo never listens

"how can I rest I have to practice to get better" Runo said

" Runo are you worried about something school, friends, homework, Amber raised her eyebow again "boyfriend"

Runo laughed "I don't have any boyfriend and never will"

Little did she knew she was wrong..

"but still I have to practice I don't have time for other stuff"

"That's the point you are trying to hard now go rest" Amber said

"But-" Runo said but was cut of by Amber "Runo"

"Ok ok I will" Runo said in defeat

She went to the lockers but suddenly a boy with chocolate brown hair and crimson eyes bumped her

"hey watch it" runo yelled

"sorry" the boy named Daniel Kuso dan for short yelled. He is dare devil and is always skating very fast and is not scared of it. He had started practicing for 2 years. He will never do it if he bumps into other people Runo looked at him he was skating at full speed and was bumping against other people "idiot" she murmured

Runo was a stubborn and that is why she is good at ice skating. She is at the top 10. She will try and try until she will make it. And she has natural talent too. She is one of the best and has won many trophes in ice skating

Amber look at Dan and then at Runo any ides popped at her mind
