//------------------------------// // The reality // Story: Silverstream's nightmare // by AppleLauda99942 //------------------------------// "I'm going to be late!!!" said Silverstream but she managed to get to the school just in time. "Just in time Silverstream" said Starlight. Then Silverstream walked into the class and she saw Apple Lauda on the screen "Phew... It was just an nightmare..." said Silverstream in relief Then the race at Spa was about to start. Apple Lauda is in P13 "I don't think Apple Lauda will win this race. It's raining pretty hard..." said Gallus "He told us that he won't aim for the win..." said Smolder "Well... I think he knows what he's doing..." said Silverstream in a worried voice. "Silverstream? Are you okay?" said Ocellus "I'm worried that Apple Lauda crashes" said Silverstream "That happens in Motorsports sometimes" said Gallus "With a deadly ending" responded Silverstream "It won't happen" said Yona. "Apple Lauda good driver. He won't crash" The race has started and Apple Lauda already gained 4 positions after the first corner. But at Raidillion exit, he gets a slow down penalty for violating track limits which he serves next lap dropping down a position after getting 6th in lap 1 Then it happened... 2 other drivers spun which makes Apple Lauda becoming 5th for now... In the closing stages of the race, he gets hunted by a Porsche 911 RSR but the Porsche driver makes a mistake which leads to the 5th place finish for Apple Lauda. "NO WAY!!!" said Gallus "WE HAVE LITERALLY A NEW AYRTON SENNA" said Starlight "HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!" asked Smolder "Apple Lauda is truly the best" said Silverstream And a few hours later, Apple Lauda returned to Ponyville asking what he had missed in class. "Apple Lauda, you're literally the new Ayrton Senna" said Sandbar. "I can't believe it" Apple Lauda responded "I heard Princess Skystar wanted to challenge you to a race at Mount Aris" said Gallus "my grandpa was a hillclimb racer" Apple Lauda said. "okay this is going to be interesting" said Starlight "don't die there Apple Lauda" said Silverstream, hugging her Boyfriend "don't worry... I'll be fine" said Apple Lauda "I had a nightmare where you died in a crash" said Silverstream and she started crying "it was just a nightmare. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine no matter if I crash or not" said Apple Lauda in response, hugging Silverstream Then Apple Lauda went to Mount Aris, meeting Princess Skystar and after a little talk, the race started. Princess Skystar sets an incredible time of 70.9 seconds. It's the fastest time ever driven at the Mount Aris Hillclimb. "try beating this Apple Lauda" said Princess Skystar and Apple Lauda laughed. "too easy" he responded. Then Apple Lauda blasted away from the starting line and instead of normal cornering, he starts drifting through the corners, gaining 1.5 to Princess Skystar. "OLE OLE OLE OLA" shouted Apple Lauda "NO WAY!!!" shouted Princess Skystar. "60.5?!" "yeah I'm now the quickest" said Apple Lauda. "How is this possible?" Princess Skystar asked. "I went maximum attack and I drifted through the Hairpins lol" Apple Lauda responded. Then Apple Lauda teached Princess Skystar how to Drift and she does a pretty good job for the beginning. "you apply too much throttle when you lose the rear" said Apple Lauda. "either Countersteer more or less throttle" "alright" said Princess Skystar in response. After the whole practice, Apple Lauda returned home where the next race was about to be set
