Chapter Five: If I Had It My Way
Author's Note:
This is a very enticing chapter, and is actually the beginning of the action. The romance doesn't come up until the final chapter. And, there is a surprise that awaits you in the final chapter. I have gotten several reviews complaining that the book is very simialar to the one of the real movie. So, here's some changes that I have made, and a few questions answered. Someone asked me what was Adam's last name. That was answered in the previous chapter. Ron said that he will lead the Fosters to safety. The Fosters are Adam's parents, so Adam's last name would be Foster. Adam Foster. And, yes, I have seen Ice Princess. Asa matter of fact, I own it on DVD, and there will be a few songs featured from the soundtrack and some scenes from the movie similar to the ones here. Now, the changes. Dawn won't be fighting Shego, she will be just fighting the henchmen, and, surprisingly, Martin. But that's later in the story. Also, Shego will be appearing, in a new way. She will be a surprise guest appearance in the story during the final three chapters, "The Sectionals," "Reaching for Heaven," and, the newest chapter, "Future Plans." But, her new role might surprise you. And the secret that awaits you readers. For now, enjoy Chapter Five: If I Had It My Way, featuring Emma Roberts' "If I Had It My Way" from the Ice Princess Soundtrack. Until Chapter Six: Final Destination, see ya! ;-)

Dawn put her skates on, holding back her tears.
These skates were special, because her parents and their friend, Wade, gave it to her for her 16th birthday, after several years of skating. It had options to change into skates and ordinary white boots. She treasured them for a year now.
Now, it was time to put them to the test. Not for the Sectionals, and the Finals following it, but for the greatest battle of all.
"Mom, dad, I'm sorry." Dawn choked to herself. Her parents' lives were going to be taken away tonight. And she'll have to live with Martin for the rest of her life.
Dawn felt the hickey on her neck. She wished she didn't do it. She should've listened to her parents. She should've listened to her subconcious, not to do it. But she ignored them both. She went against her own mother.
It was too late to forgive now. And, hopefully, she'll let them know when it's time for last words.
Dawn set her boots to skates once she was at the entrance of the ice covered building. At least just the bottom floor.
She bent down, and stared at her feet, with one hand infront of her, the other behind her, resting on her bent back.
"Mom, dad, this is for you." Dawn thought, "I hope you're proud."
Dawn looked up, as the imaginary music began in her mind, focusing on her goal. She began skating down the halls gracefully.
Yeah
Oh yeah
Whoa!
I look around and see
The possibilities
You know it's fun to be me
Never fit the crowd
Nothing gets me down
Never scared to d-d-dream
And if I hear something can't me done
I'm gonna prove them wrong
Make everybody pay, be-lieve
That if I had the chance I could change it all
That's what I'm ready to see
Dawn gasped when she saw a gap in the way. She kicked her right foot on her toe pick and double lutzed across, landing shakily at the other side.
'Cause if I had it my way
I would make new rules
That sounds cool
People say I'm crazy
They don't understand
Who I am
If I had it my way
I would change the world
Just one girl
If I...
(If I)
Had it my way
Dawn continued down. Another interuption was made. Two henchmen were pacing towards her. She cheerleader kicked in mid-air, her skates scratching into the henchmen, making green slime ooze out.
"Synthodrones..." Dawn mumbled, "Mom was right." She continued down.
Yeah
Ooh, yeah
I've gotta buzz in me
That no one else could see
It's in the attitude
Yeah!
I'm gonna find a way
No matter what they say
I do what I gotta do
'Cause when I hear something can't be done
That only makes me strong
It happens every time
I can take a situation going wrong, yeah!
And make it turn out right
Dawn furrowed as a small group of stairs came closer to her. She turned around and began to glide backwards. When she was close enough, she toe kicked and double axeled into the next hallway, and continued skating with a spiral.
'Cause if I had it my way
I would make new rules
That sounds cool
People say I'm crazy
They don't understand
Who I am
If I had it my way
I would change the world
Just one girl
If I...
(If I)
Had it my way!
Dawn gasped as a large group of henchmen charged towards her. She kicked on her toe pick and cheerleader kicked two in mid-air, camel spun several henchmen, layback spun several more henchmen, combo camel spun several more, and finally, backward crossovered the final hechmen, and continued down.
Na na na na na na na na na
I can do anything
(Anything!)
Na na na na na na na na na
Just watch me
(Watch me, watch me)
Dawn saw a narrow path approaching. She raised her left leg and spiraled through the narrow hallway.
'Cause if I had it my way
I would make new rules
That sounds cool
(Oooh...)
People say I'm crazy
They don't understand
Who I am
(Who I am)
If I had it my way
I could change the world
Just one girl
If I
(If I)
Had it my way!
Dawn did a final layback spin and haulted infront of a doorway to the second floor. Her parents were already on the other side, waiting for her to say her final goodbyes to them. Little did she know, that someone had followed her in.
Dawn heaved a sigh. "I'm ready." She flung the doors open, and changed her skates back into boots.
