I walked with the boys, occasionally throwing in a comment or two. I ducked as I felt the air move behind me and a white blur shot over my head, nailing Jamie in the neck.
"Okay, who threw that?" He laughed. I smirked and stood, looking for the culprit.
"Well, wasn't bigfoot kiddo." I heard someone say as a breeze whispered past. I shivered and looked around.
"Ow!" I heard someone yelp. I turned in time to see Monty face plant into the snow due to a snow ball. Another mystery snowball came flying from behind me and nailed Pippa in the face. I cringed but laughed.
"Jamie Bennett! No fair!" Pippa giggled.
"You struck first!" Jamie laughed.
"Oh!" Claude guffawed as another mystery ball took down his twin.
"Free for all!" I exclaimed. "Take no prisoners!"
I ducked the onslaught and laughed.
"Gotta do better than that, little cousin!" I teased Jamie. I yelped and jumped over an ice ball.
"Hey! No ice!" I exclaimed, ducking another snowball. I ran behind a car and hid. I grabbed a snowball as it appeared from nowhere. I shrugged and stood, quickly firing the ball of cold. I heard an invisible force grunt as my snowball exploded mid air. I blinked rapidly in confusion before ducking down again. I grabbed another snowball and began firing at Jamie's attackers with deadly accuracy. I missed only once and instantly regretted it. I hit cupcake. I came out from behind the car to gape at the growling third grader.
"Crud, I hit Cupcake..." I heard Pippa say.
"No, that was me." I said guiltily.
"She hit Cupcake..." Monty said, as if trying to process the fact that I killed us all.
"You hit Cupcake?" Claude hissed. I nodded and grew worried as Cupcake towered over Jamie. And boof! She was flat on her butt.
"Oh!"
"Did you throw that?" Caleb asked.
"No." Monty said.
"Wasn't me." Pippa said. They looked at me.
"I swear, it wasn't me this time." I said. I watched as Cupcake began laughing hysterically. I grinned.

Cupcake chased the kids down the hill, holding the head of her snowman in her hands. I followed close behind, trying not to stare at Kelly's lean legs as she ran. Did she really have to wear skinny jeans?!
"Ooh, little slippery!" I warned them. I ran ahead and iced the path. They fell to a stop, except for Jamie, who landed on his sled and began rocketing down the hill with a yell. Kelly gasped and scrambled to her feet, picking up her dropped sled. She got a running head start and dropped the sled, jumping on it like a skateboard. my jaw dropped as she boarded after Jamie.
"Whoaaa. Jamie, watch out! Stop! Jamie! Turn, turn! That's the street! What are you doing? Stop! There's traffic!" The kids yelled, their sentences merging.
Jamie suddenly shot out between the trees and careens past a set of parked cars. My path of ice covered the street. As Jamie turned, his speed only escalated, sending him directly into traffic. Jamie barely missed a moving truck, spinning it out of control, sending furniture out the back, and causing a four car pile up.
"Whoa!" Jamie exclaimed.
"Whoa, don't worry kid, I gotcha." I said. I glanced back to see Kelly parkouring over the pile up, her speed and precision incredible.
"Hold on. It's gonna be alright." I tried soothing Jamie. He was looking back at Kelly as she drew closer, face determined.
"Keep up with me kid! Take a left." I said.
"Take a left!" Kelly called to him, mirroring my words. I blinked at her before concentrating on Jamie. I flew over to the far side of the street, sending the streak of ice and Jamie up onto the sidewalk. Jamie was yelling in fear and Kelly swore in a foreign language.
"Hellig lort!" I think is what she exclaimed, eyes wide. She weaved between the pedestrians and kicked the black top to speed up.
"Is that Jamie Bennett?" A pedestrian yelped.
"Hi Ms. Roberts!" Kelly called as she shot past. I laughed.
"Hey! Watch it!" Another barked.
"Sorry sir! Trying to save my cousin from the jaws of death!" Kelly called.
"There you go!" I encouraged Jamie.
"Look at that dude! And that crazy chick!" Someone laughed. Kelly saluted on her way past. She was gaining on Jamie. Said kid nearly crashed into a postman as he shot off the sidewalk and Kelly shouted an apology on her way around him. Her blue eyes looked more indigo. I saw the look of excitement come into Jamie's face. I grinned, knowing I was responsible. I saw an oncoming snowplow and quickly jumped ahead, aided by the wind, to divert the ice trail. Jamie's sled suddenly turned, narrowly missing the oncoming truck and he barreled toward my newly formed ice ramp...
~Kelly~
"You've got to be kidding me!" I exclaimed, sinking farther into a crouch. As jamie hit the ramp, I swore in Danish again. I steadied myself as I hit the ramp and mid air, I launched myself to Jamie. Jamie's friends stared in awe as I grabbed onto Jamie's sled, shielding him with my body.
"This is gonna hurt..." I muttered. I squeezed my eyes shut as we did a nose dive into a snowbank. I let out a grunt as I took the brunt of the crash. I shook my head free of snow and peered down to the eight-year-old in my arms.
"You okay?" I asked. He grinned and nodded. We stood, me shaking, and Jamie waved over his friends.
"Wow, that looks serious! Jamie! Kelly, are you alright? Are they okay?" The friends asked, their sentences blurring.
"Whoaaa! Did you guys see that? It was amazing! I slid - I did a jump and I slid under a car–ERF!" Jamie was cut off as a rogue sofe slammed into him. It smashed into my gut and I double over the couch, rolling over the top. I groaned and sat up, rubbing my stomach.
"Cool! A Tooth!" Jamie exclaimed, popping up from behind the couch.
"Dude, that means cash! Tooth Fairy cash! I love the Tooth Fairy! That's totally awesome. You lucky bug! Lucky!" The kids cheered. I felt the temperature drop and I saw menacing clouds in the sky.
"I gotta put this under my pillow!" Jamie said.
"I lost two teeth in one day once - remember that?! What are you gonna spend your money on? What are you gonna buy? How much do you think she's going to leave? Let's go... I'm cooold! My ears are freezing." I was so tired and sore I could barely concentrate on who was saying what.
"How about we head back to Jamie's and grab some hot cocoa?" I suggested to make them stop. They cheered in agreement and I stood, rubbing my lower back in pain. I walked slowly after them as they continued to talk. I felt a whoosh of air and heard a pained gasp. I shook my head. I was going crazy. I went to walk after them and crashed to my butt as I walked into someone. I grunted and rubbed my forehead.
"Sorry." I muttered, standing. I looked up to see startled blue eyes.
