Another game of the Brown Bears team in the Supreme Hockey League ended in defeat. All team members were completely surprised - this was already the second loss in a row in an important KHL (Continental Hockey League) match against their sworn rival, who turned out to be too strong.
Leon, as the team captain, got the most from the head coach. Although hockey is a team game and everyone was to blame, Scott always tried to take the greatest share of responsibility. He had known the guys almost all his life - they had been training in the same ice complex since childhood, where they had been training since their earliest years.
Now the team could not lose anymore, otherwise it could be the end for the Brown Bears. Therefore, the training became more intense and difficult. After analyzing the last game with two coaches, everyone quickly began to put on their gear, determined to fix the situation.
"Come on, astronauts! The skaters are after us, and they won't give us a single extra minute of practice, so get going!" the second coach shouted, taking the whistle from the table and hurrying everyone up with a wave of his hands, heading towards the exit of the locker room.
"Wow, looks like the beautiful skaters are about to skate, Scott, did you hear?" one of the hockey players jokingly remarked, giving Kennedy a friendly slap on the back.
Towards the last minutes of practice, several skaters appeared in the stands, among them you, leaning your elbows on the fence and carefully watching the hockey players. Leon and his friend skated closer to you.
"Snow queens, you're a bit early, don't you think?" Kennedy said with a grin, winking at you and approaching the fence.
