“Ok!” Spitfire called to the two girls waiting by the starting line. “You two know the rules! Whichever one of you wins this race becomes captain of the track team, got it.”
Rainbow grinned and nodded while her opponent just smirked. She had long, orange/blonde hair and a teal sleeveless shirt and track shorts. Rainbow had her own track outfit of white shirt and red shorts.
“Good luck out there today Lightning Dust,” Rainbow said with a chuckle. “Though I hope you don’t mind having me as captain again this year.”
“Oh don’t worry Rainbow,” Lightning said cockily. “You won’t have to worry about that.” The blonde turned back in front of her and got in position as Rainbow did the same. The other track girls were standing off to the side while in the stands, the other main girls, Sweetie Belle, Applebloom, Scootaloo, and the boys are watching so they can cheer their friend on.
“YOU GOT THIS RAINBOW DASH!!!” Pinkie cheered, jumping up and down, causing her skirt to fly up and expose her panties, giving Spike, Micro, and especially Sugar who was sitting next to her a wonderful view. Rainbow was slightly startled right as Spitfire pulled the trigger on the starter pistol. Lightning Dust took off and Rainbow had a bit of ground to make up as she shot Pinkie a light glare causing the pinkette to sit down sheepishly.
“You think she can still win?” Fluttershy asked nervously.
“Are you kidding!?” Scootaloo declared. “Rainbow is the best there is! No way she can lose this.” Sweetie and Applebloom grinned and rolled their eyes at their friend’s antics. Applebloom glanced over at Sugar who was still blushing from his peek at Pinkie’s panties. She couldn’t help but think back to the duel with Flim and Flam.
The gears started spinning and the barrel lowered itself at Applebloom before charging up.
“NO!” Applejack called out. As the beam fired though, Applebloom was shoved out of the way.
“AAAAAHHH!!” Sugar screamed as he was sent flying back into the debris. He fell until his uniform caught on one of the pipes, leaving him hanging limply from them.
‘I still can’t believe he saved me like that…’ Applebloom thought with a blush.
After getting back to the dorms, the others had explained the situation with Discord. Needless to say, it caught the three off guard. After hearing that only through winning a duel could the chaos spirit escape, they resolved to improve their decks and their skills so they could help in the fight. Since then, her and her friends had hung out with the boys more and, well, she couldn’t help but blush every time she was around Sugar.
Back on the track Rainbow had long since caught up to Lightning. The two were neck and neck as they were rounding the final turn of the track. Rainbow started to pull ahead just a little bit and Lightning growled.
‘I’m not going to lose to you again!’ She thought. She brought her elbow up and shoved Rainbow to the side, causing her to stumble and trip. As Rainbow hit the ground, Lightning shot forward and crossed the finish.
“Woohoo!” She cheered. “Yeah! New captain this year!” She raised her hands up as if to get a high five from her team, only to see them all running to Rainbow.
“You ok Rainbow?” Fleet Foot asked.
“Yeah,” Rainbow said as she pulled herself up. “I’m fine.”
“What’s wrong with you girls?” Lightning asked. “I’m your new captain now. If she tripped during practice think what might happen during a meet…” She didn’t have the chance to say anything else as Gilda had come up and buried her fist in her gut putting her flat on the ground.
“You dirty rotten…!”
“GILDA!” Spitfire shouted. “Stop right now! You already are getting detention for hitting her don’t push it further.” Lightning smirked thinking she won until Spitfire grabbed the front of her shirt and hauled her to her feet. “As for you Lightning Dust, hit the showers and don’t bother coming back to practice. You’re off the team.”
“WHAT!? You can’t do that! She tripped and I have to…”
“Don’t pull that BS with me! You elbowed her and sent her sprawling! You’re done!” Lightning Dust was left stammering, trying to come up with some argument, but finding none as the other girls all walked with Rainbow to the locker room.
“Serves that cheater right,” Applejack growled. The other’s all voiced their agreement as they stood up.
“Should we go wait for Rainbow?” Fluttershy asked.
“Yeah!” Pinkie said. “We need to get her celebration party ready!”
“And check to make sure she’s ok,” Sunset said. Pinkie once again looked a bit sheepish and nodded as they all stood up and grabbed their bags.
“By the way,” Rarity spoke up. “Has anyone seen Frida?”
“Her classes for the day should be over by now,” Fluttershy said. “Maybe she went back to the dorm to spend time with Angel Bunny. She really seemed to like playing with him last night.”
“Are you talking about that new girl with the big breasts?” Scootaloo said as Sweetie blushed and smacked the back of her friend’s head.
“Rainbow has been bad influence on you,” she said. “You’re starting to talk like her!”
“I was shocked she didn’t come to watch the practice,” Spike said.
“Yeah,” Micro whispered back. “I mean, she’s a pervert and a bunch of girls in tight track outfits…” He trailed off, suddenly annoyed he didn’t think to hit record on his glasses.
Meanwhile, under the bleachers, Frida lay on her back looking up at her phone.
“Oh now that’s what I call an apple bottom,” she said looking at an upskirt photo she got of Applejack. With a giggle she put her phone away and looked down at her chest as the small head of a little white rabbit poked out from where it was snuggling between her breasts. “You are just the cutest little thing, aren’t you Angel?” She pets his head as he looks happy at his new bed. She got up and stretched, about to walk out from under the stands as she heard Lightning Dust.
“Why! Why is it always her! It’s not fair!” Frida scoffed from her hiding spot.
“Yeah right you cheater. Hmmm…” Looks down at her fuzzy white friend. “What do you think Angel? Think we should get a bit of revenge for our friend?”
Before her new friend could respond, a dark voice chuckled.
“Oh dear Lightning Dust...how terrible it is that they kicked you off the team…” Frida looked out from the bleachers and saw Lightning looking around confused.
“Who said that!?” The voice chuckled.
“A friend my dear. A friend who wants to help you. After all, you won the race. You should be captain.” Lightning looked down at her feet and clenched her fists.
“Yeah...yeah you’re right! I do deserve to be captain! You can help me with that?”
“Of course! All you have to do, is duel that multi colored girl and beat her. You do that, she tells the coach you never did hit her, you’re on the team and she is kicked off for lying. Sound good?”
Lightning looked up and Frida saw her grinning like a mad woman.
“Perfect…” She started laughing and some dark clouds started rolling in, a light rain coming down. Frida looked on in shock and fear as Angel buried itself back into her cleavage to hide.
“I’ve got to get to Rainbow…” She turned to go when a shadowy figure rose up from the ground.
“Ah ah ah,” Discord said. “Naughty girl listening in on a private conversation.”
“Listening in is hardly the reason I’m a naughty girl. Look, I don’t know what the heck you are but…”
“Oh, I suppose your new friends didn’t tell you. Well, it doesn’t matter right now. Lightning dear…”
Frida went wide eyed and realized she shouldn’t have turned her back on Lightning as she turned to see a swarm of clouds shooting toward her. She jumped back and threw a smoke bomb down. That would’ve worked, if not for the clouds engulfing the entire area before electricity sparked through them.
“AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!” Frida screamed. She collapsed to the ground, both her and Angel knocked out, though otherwise ok. Lightning stood over the two and grinned. An idea forming in her head.
"I think this is a wonderful opportunity."
