1"Let me take this one" jack said in his thick Bostonian accent. He quickly hopped over the half-wall and skated smoothly onto the ice.
"Oh shit," Sara mumbled to herself, "this is not going to go over smoothly is it?"
The whistle blew and they quicky went into the drill. Then all of the sudden there was a gigantic CRACK and Mac was on the ground. He quickly got up and the boys started throwing punches, and Herb just let them at it. She walked out of the room after getting a nod form Herb and Craig. Over the last few days she and her father had been doing the unthinkable, getting along. Mind you it wasn't the greatest relationship but it was still a start.
When she got onto the ice, in her skates, she found theat the boys were on the line ready to do line touches. She nodded to her father and he began instructing. "Skate to each line returning to this one, if Sara beats most of you, you boys will run it again. On the whistle." there was a sharp sound in the air and they took off, Sara beating all of them back to the line.
"How the hell do you do that?" Mark Johnson asked as they skated back onto the goal line, he was panting and she was laughing.
"Its called 'I was a figure skater on the English National team'" she said still laughing. She hadn't even become flushed afer five laps and the boys were beginning to slow. On about the tenth lap she became flushed and decided to finish. "alright Dad I think you made your point very clear to the lads and I don't think they will pull any more crap during practices. Now if you will excuse me I think I am going to skate around a bit while you clean." she said as she re-tightened her figure skates and glided out to center ice and began to move into an old routine she once did. She expertly landed all of her jumps and moves and finished strong and headed in while the boys were still cleaning.
That night Sara was on her was to her fathers office for all finalizing the rooming plans for the boys for all of the trips and for the rest of training, when Herb walked by her on his way to the same place.
"What do you think of the plans so far Dad? I put Mac and O.C. in the same room like you requested." she asked with confidence.
"Thanks Sara. You have been doing a wonderful job with the team we really appreciate you being here. The plans look good by the way." Herb said with the utmost gratitude towards her.
"Your welcome Dad. I really enjoy being here. And thanks for going over the plans."
