Chapter 1

Valkyrie Verchota has always been around hockey, thanks to her brother Phil. So when Phil got an invitation to go to Olympic tryouts for the 1980 Olympics in Lake Placid she was naturally very excited.

"OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OHMYGOD!"

"Ah! Hanna get off! I can't breathe and I'm pretty sure you just made me go deaf in one ear with your banshee like shrieking!"

"But Philly, you're going to the Olympics! The Olympics! Oh my God! Oh my God!"

"No, I got an invitation to tryout, a lot of people did, and I probably won't get picked."

"Don't ruin this for me! God you always do this. You are such a pessimist! Look at the bright side for once Phil! And don't worry you'll get picked. I know hockey, and I guarantee that you are an excellent hockey player," Valkyrie, or Hanna, said.

"Alright, whatever you say Hanna. I'm gonna call the rest of the guys to see if they got an invitation," Phil replied.

"Hey, speaking of your hockey team, when am I going to meet them?"

"Uh… How 'bout never? You don't want to meet them, and I won't let you meet them."

"Why not? I am adorable. Really I am. Boys come up to me on the street to tell me I'm pretty! And they hit on me all the time! I mean seriously who wouldn't want this?!"

"Exactly! I don't want any of my friends falling for you! And really Val could you be any more of a narcissus?"

"I am not a narcissus! I just now the qualities that people think are flattering about me and I embrace them! And why don't you want any of your friends falling for me? I'm awesome!"

"Yeah you are. And it would be awkward. My friend falling for my sister… Guys talk about their girlfriends, you know? I don't need to hear stuff like that about my little sister!"

"But-"

"No! I don't want to talk about this anymore!"

"Fine! God you're such a baby! Anyway I wish I could go with you! I want to be a part of the Olympics!"

"There's no way in hell I'm letting you anywhere near horny college age hockey players!"

"Really? Then why am I allowed to be near you?"

"Yes- Hey!"

"Hahaha… Go call your friends Phil. I have to go look for a job."

Two days later

*RING RING RING*

"Val, phone!" Phil yelled as he rushed out the door to Robbie McClanahan's car that was parked out front.

The front door slammed behind him as he ran to the car before Valkyrie could come after him and expose to his friends that he had a little sister that was actually quite attractive.

"Hey, Verchota," Mac said as Phil got in to the back of the car behind Steve Janaszak. He sat down beside Bill Baker, who was beside Mike Ramsey.

"Who were you yelling to Verchota?" Rammer asked curiously.

"My sister. Phone was ringing and there was no way in hell I was going to answer it," He replied scoffing.

"Ah, the elusive little sister of Phil Verchota, so when are we going to meet her?" Baker asked.

"Uh… How about never?" Phil said seriously.

"Aw, come on Verchota! We've never met this girl! We don't know her name or what she looks like because you never talk about her and you don't have any pictures of her! Hell, we didn't even know you had a sister until last year when she called you and I answered the phone. I didn't even get to talk to her for more than fifteen seconds, because as soon as I told you that your sister was on the phone you ripped the phone out of my hand and pushed me out of the dorm! It's like you're hiding her from us or something," Mac laughed.

"I am!"

"What, really? Why?"

"Because when people meet my sister things change, and not in a good way. And I don't really want a bunch of horny college boys around my little sister."

"Come on, Phil! We're all friends here, we're not gonna treat you differently because of your sister," Janny said.

"You say that now, just wait until you meet her. Hanna's got one of those personalities. She makes everyone who meets her fall in love with her in some way… It gets kind of annoying sometimes. Hell, even Coach loves her!" Phil exclaimed.

"Wait, Herb has met her… And he likes her?" Rammer said incredulously.

"Yeah, it seemed impossible right? Coach actually liking someone besides his family. Anyway, Herb met her three summers ago. He spent five minutes with her, and after those five minutes he asked her if she could babysit his kids so he and Patti could go out. So now she babysits his kids during the summer when she's home from college!"

"Wow… So what how old is your sister?"

"Ugh… She's nineteen, but she's already graduated from college."

"Really, wow! That's really impressive," Robbie said.

"Yeah, she's got an eidetic memory or something. Basically, she's a real braniac," Phil sighed.

"I know she didn't go to the U, or we would have met her. And she probably didn't go to any universities in Minnesota, because we also would have met her. So where did she go for college?" Baker asked.

"She went to an all-girl college in Virginia, Sweet Briar."

"Damn! An all-girl school, that's rough!"

"Yeah, she hated it, but made Dad said that the only way he was going to pay for her medical school and let her go to college early was if she went to an all-girl college."

"Why?" Janny asked.

"I don't pretend to know what goes through my father's mind. But I think it was because he didn't want his baby girl to be corrupted by impure male thoughts or something, I don't know. Dad is really protective of Val."

"So Val, is that a nickname?"

"Yeah, her real name is Valkyrie."

"Valkryie? Then why did you call her Hanna?" Rammer asked, confused.

"Her full name is Valkyrie Hanna Kirsten Verchota, thus Val and Hanna for nicknames."

"With a name like Valkyrie, I bet she is a firecracker!" Mac laughed as he drove to the theater.

"She is. When we were kids she used to go punch people in the face and kick them in the shins for telling her she was the reason that soldiers died in battle."

"Haha! I want to meet this girl!"

"Yeah? Well, tough. Because there is no way I am letting any of you within fifty feet of her!"

*RING RING RING*

"Val, phone!" Phil yelled up to her as the door slammed behind him.

"Ugh… 'Val, phone! Go get the phone, Val, I have to go with my stupid friends, who I won't let you meet by the way, to go see a stupid movie and do stupid boy things with, like use dumbass pick-up lines on puck bunnies.'" She mocked in a deep voice as she went to pick up the phone.

"Hello?" She asked the person on the line.

"Valkaryie?" The voice asked.

"Coach Brooks! How's it going? You need me to babysit Kelly and Danny for you and Patti?"

"No, no, we're good, thanks for asking though. I'm calling because I was offered the coaching position for the 1980 Olympic Hockey Team, and I was wondering if you want a job?"

"W-what?"

"Doc is going to need an assistant to help him handle all of the athletes, he's not getting any younger, you know? Anyway, I know that you just graduated from college with a degree in pre-medicine. And I also know that you are taking a year before going to Medical School to earn some money to help pay for some of it, and I was wondering if you want to be Doc's assistant. The pay is okay, and you'd be ring side at all of their games and you would trav-"

"YES! Yes! I mean… I would be happy to be a part of such a historical team. You can count me in Herb!"

"Alright, just keep it from your brother, and you'll get a ticket in the mail in three days for Colorado Springs where the tryouts are taking place."

"You got it, Coach! And don't worry there is no way that I am going to tell Phil about this. Oh, I can't wait to see his face when he sees me there! Priceless."

"Alright, see you in Colorado Springs, Valkyrie," Herb said before hanging up.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Hanna said skipping and jumping around the room.
