December 2017, Fujiyoshida City

A young Yuuki Asuna peered out the left window of the car and watched as the snow-covered streets before her passed by in a blur. Her older brother, Yuuki Kouichirou, was sitting next to her with his face towards the ceiling of the car, his winter hat making parts of his dark brown hair pop out in the front and cover is his equally dark brown eyes slightly. Asuna scooted closer to her brother when she noticed that his eyes were closed.

"Onii-chan." she said as she poked his left cheek with her small index finger. Kouichirou's eye twitched at the gesture and opened them, directing their gaze towards his younger sister.

"What is it Asuna?" He asked as he rubbed his eyes slightly to get the sleep out of them.

"Do you know where we're going Onii-chan?" Asuna asked as she gestured to the streets on the other side of the window.

"No idea… But you should enjoy the ride since this is our first time here." Kouichirou said to her. He looked out the window himself and saw how most of the streets were empty and the snow was barely touched.

'Where ARE we going?' he thought. He had asked his parents when they were leaving but he just got the vague answer of, "you'll know when we get there," from his mother.

Asuna looked out the window again and saw a sign but it was only another blur since they were passing by so fast she couldn't read it. She turned to look forward, her parents in the front. Her mother, Yuuki Kyouko, was looking through her phone, probably at work documents while her father, Yuuki Shouzou, was driving and humming happily as he did. Asuna saw as her father turned the wheel to turn to another street, one that was less snow dominated and were more people than the previous one they had been on. Kouichirou noticed this as well and looked out his own window and saw another sign briefly before they passed it, managing to read it.

'I have heard of that place before but I don't remember from where and why...' he thought as he wondered whether he should tell his younger sister. He looked towards her and saw how she was looking at the people out the window, her tongue slightly sticking out from the right corner of her mouth, probably where her tooth was missing. The motion of the car slowing down made Asuna and Kouichirou look forward at their parents, who turned towards them after they turned off the car.

"As you kids know, we came here for our family vacation but do you know what is in this city that's amazing?" Their father said. Asuna shook her head immediately with Kouichirou following seconds later. This time, their mother spoke to them with a faint smile on her face.

"Well I hope you two are ready to find out." Kyouko said as she opened the door on her side of the car to get out with her husband doing the same on his side. Kyouko opened the door for her daughter to get out with Shouzou doing the same for his son. What they saw now, not too far from them, was a large area of ice with many people on it.

'Now I remember… Fuji Q Highland is an amusement park… with one of the biggest skating rinks in the country...' Kouichirou thought as he looked at the people. Asuna looked at the large rink in amazement as she saw the place, thinking that there was such a large amount of people yet the place didn't look close to being full.

"What do you think?" Shouzou asked as he put his right hand on Asuna's shoulder and his left on Kouichirou's.

"I think that it is amazing!" Asuna said with a huge smile as she continued to look at the rink, Kouichirou having the same expression on his face. Upon seeing this, Shouzou couldn't help but smile as well. The family quickly went to pay to go inside the rink.

Once inside Asuna was a bit reluctant to step on the ice after putting on her skates. She had never skated before in her life so she wouldn't know how move on the ice. Kouichirou saw her hesitation to step on the ice and decided to help her since he had already learned how to skate some years before. He walked up to her and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Come on Asuna, I'll teach you how to skate."

"Really? Thank you Onii-chan!" Asuna said as she smiled again, showing the small space in her teeth from the missing tooth. Kouichirou pulled her onto the ice and helped stand on the ice.

"Make sure to always be balanced so that you don't fall, okay?" he said as he held her hand to help her balance on the ice.

"Right!" she said with determination in her eyes.

"Also, bend your knees. If you stand to rigid you'll fall."

"Like this?" Asuna asked as she bent her knees slightly but not too much.

"Perfect but make sure to lean forward and not back." Just as he said this, Asuna fell backwards and landed on the ice. He bent down and helped her up.

"You okay?"

"Y-Yeah…"

"Want to take a break?"

"No! I want to keep skating!" she said with the same determination from before in her voice. Asuna brushed off the small ice that was on her white skirt and red winter jacket and did what her brother had told her just moments before. Kouichirou couldn't help but smile at his younger sister's determination… and stubbornness.

'I think she gets that from Oka-san...' he thought as he helped her balance on the ice again. As Asuna got used to the ice, she hadn't even noticed when Kouichirou let go of her hand and that she was skating on her own. When she turned and saw that he was a few feet away and not next to him, she grinned. Unbeknownst to them, their parents took pictures and recorded the whole thing, thinking that the moment should be saved. Asuna and Kouichirou began to chase each other around the gigantic rink, circling some of the bits of land that were in the rink and passing many of the people there with huge smiled on their faces.

A/N: Still can't believe I made it twenty weeks... I was sure I'd forget at some point but here we are! Thanks to all of those who have stayed with me and the story! Thanks to my first reviewer (unknown guest) and my first follower Bashabuttonstories! Sorry if most of this is wrong since I've never ice skated before.
