Reggie's face brightened. "Really? Cool! When?"
"Next week." Twister looked up the gang who had now made a circle around him. "They're moving into that house for sale just about a block from here."
"Awesome!" Reggie commented. "She's not gonna be that far from us!"
Otto looked at her sharply. "C'mon Reg, guys..! We have a huge game to practice for today. What are we doing standing around talking for? We can chat at the Shack later today -after- the game."
"I'm down with that, Ottoman!" Twister agreed. Sam and Reggie just looked at each other, shrugged, smiled, and shook their heads before doing a traditional Woogidie with Twister and Otto and got on with their practice. A few hours later, they were headed for the game place.
"Would the two teams please enter the court! The game is about to start!" the announcer called about a half hour after they got there. The Rocket gang entered first followed by their opponents, The Barbarians. They skated around the street hockey court before taking their places. The ref skated over holding the puck in his hand and in an instant, dropped the puck and blew his whistle, starting the game. Otto won the face-off skating towards the opposing team's goal. Two of the Barbarian's team members came skating up behind him. "Twister," Otto shouted. "Take it!" he shot the puck to Twist just in time. One of the other team's members knocked him down on the ground.
Twister skated up the court and passed the puck to Reggie to fake the goalie, Reggie passed it back to Twister who skated around the net and shot it in. "Yeah! Way to go, Twist!" Otto and Reggie shouted as they ambushed him with Sam in tow.
2 periods later with 13 seconds left on the clock, game tied 3-3, the ref drops the puck and the whistle blows for the last time in the game. Team Rocket just broke from a time-out to stratigize for the last goal to win the game and the championship. They took Twister's old play that got them into the championships 5 years ago, modified it a bit, and took to their spots. Soon after the whistle blew, the opposing team won the face-off and headed towards Team Rocket's goal.
Reggie snuck up behind the puck-holding opponent, skated around and snatched it out of his stick's grasp. "Thanks for the puck!" She skated off to The Barbarians' goal and started the play. Once she got past the modifications the play looked like the one five years ago. "Rocket Boy!" she passed the puck to her brother who shot it in just as the buzzer went off, stopping the game. The final score? 4-3.
The team got into a huddle and congratulated themselves. A -lot-. Ray and Tito took the afternoon off to watch the kids' game. After they were awarded, they hiked down the bleachers to congratulate them some more. "That was an awesome game today, kids. I'm proud of you guys!" Ray told them enthusiastically.
"You all did a great job today, lil' cuzzes!" Tito congratulated them.
"Thanks!" said the four of them in unison. They took off their helmets and pads, stuck them in their duffels with their sticks and headed to the Shack for victory food. Of course though, Otto was the one who insisted he take the giant street hockey trophy to the Shack.
Reggie, Sam, and Twister skated a little further behind Otto, Ray, and Tito to have a small chat. Reggie started; she's the one who called the mini-meeting to order. "Okay. We all know Otto's changed a little. -Just- a little," she held up her first finger and thumb less than a half inch apart to show them. "But he hasn't changed completely." She then glanced up to her brother who was carrying the street hockey championship trophy that they -all- won. Sam and Otto followed her glance.
"I know what you mean." Sam answered after some thought. "He -has- become a little nicer and hasn't taken all the credit for everything he's won in the past year. Although his ego hasn't shrunk. I'm guessing he just started to notice that he's not the only one who can win stuff all the time."
"Yeah. Like that time I was better at street luging than him, but since he couldn't lose to me, he cheated and got the trophy instead. He didn't seem to good about that.. I guess he couldn't take losing. Well, he still can't take losing.. but he can take it better now than he did before," Twister kinna rambled on before looking to Reggie and Sam. "And would you mind not holding hands? It makes me feel kind of sick." Twister said, seeming to almost gag and turn green.
"Eheheheh...." Reggie and Sam broke their hands apart and turned slightly pink each. Twister just rolled his eyes.
That night they held a party for the winning team at the Shore Shack. Streamers and banners were put up all over, and the smell of good cooked food surrounded the air. Of course it attracted everyone up and down The Pier and the boardwalk, hungry skaters from MadTown, shoobies and many more. The golden street hockey championship trophy was set up on a small table in front of The Wall of Fame. Everyone had to take a look at it. It was one of the two things they couldn't pass up. The other thing was the party food. There was everything. Burgers, fries, ice cream, chips, soda, veggies and fruits for the health nuts, and many more good eats. The party rocked on what seemed like all night, but in fact only until 12:15 in the morning when someone accidentally fell asleep in the small tub of whipped cream.
Ray and Tito got everyone to go their own ways, cleaned up and took the pack of teens home to rest from their big day.
