Chapter 2: Meeting in the Library and the Tennis Match (Lemon Hearts' POV)

Hey there. My name is Lemon Hearts. I was asked to continue the story by Minuette, so here I go.

I was sitting in the classroom waiting for what seems like a really long time until the bell would ring, which will mean that I could finally hang out with my friends at the Library. I have heard the clock ticking very slowly as every second felt like an hour. Suddenly the bell has rung and I pack my stuff so I could walk off to the Library to meet my friends. The Library was gigantic, with the building being about 50 feet or 15 metres tall. There were approximately 75000 books in the Library of Crystal Prep Academy. My friends were waiting at a table just near the book section about Physics.

Minuette would jump up and yell "Hey Lemon Hearts! What are planning today."

I explained "Look everyone this is serious. We need to come up with strategies on how we could try to pass the try-out for the Friendship Games. I'll go first, we would need to perform a relay against a few of Moondancer's Canterlot High friends. Then we would need to do 2 hours of training all around the school each day with the subjects of Speed, Strength, Hand-Eye Coordination, Balance Skills and Teamwork. With teamwork nothing is impossible. We are a quadruple, we will work as a team."

Minuette sang "We'll be the first ponies on the flag-waving scene."

I yelled "Minuette! Can you be quiet with the songs from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. This is not the time for that. This is the time to plan to train for the try-outs on Friday."

Minuette replied "I'm sorry Lemon Hearts, but I always sing a song from the show whenever someone mentions a line from one."

Twinkleshine spoke up "I accept your strategy Lemon Hearts, we could get one of us to carry someone else's stuff as a test for strength."

Moondancer replied "Don't you know how many books I carry each and everyday. They weigh a ton or something. Well actually they weigh 30 pounds."

I yelled "Moondancer! We use the Metric System here, remember?"

Moondancer replied "Oh I am sorry Lemon Hearts. For that hand eye thing we could play baseball with the boys."

I replied "No Moondancer, but we can try to play tennis at my house to train. Who's with me.

My three friends yelled "Yes we are Lemon Hearts."

So then me and my three friends begin walking off to my house. The house appeared to have been built in the 1960s and the orange brick makes up most of the outside of the house. It also has glass windows and a wooden door with glass in some parts of it. Along the outside of the house was a wooden fence that was painted white. We walked towards the gate that seperated the back yard from the front yard. We poened it and followed the path towards the Tennis Court. The Tennis Court was huge and it had two separate courts, but you can host doubles matches on both in which that we are going to do to practice our hand-eye coordination skills.

I explained "Okay guys, we are going to be split up into two teams. Minuette will go with me while Twinkleshine will go with Moondancer. The rules are: 1. First to 10 points wins. 2. Cheating will cause a point to be deducted off your total. 3. Stay in the Tennis Court Area, because my mom does not want the three of you inside to make a mess."

Minuette, the blue skinned girl asked "What will be the prize for the winners of our little tennis match."

I replied "The winners will get lunch that will be purchased by the losers tomorrow."

Twinkleshine asked "Is it Lunch from the cafeteria or Lunch from a cafe?"

I replied "They will get it from a cafe. Now we are all ready to go as I soon blow the whistle."

I then blow the whistle and I pick up my racquet. Since I am hosting the tennis game, it means that I serve the ball and it flys towards Moondancer in which she hits the green furry ball back towards me. This would continue until I hit the ball so hard that Moondancer missed. The next serve was by Minuette who hits the ball with a nice speed with her arm. It hits all the way to the end of the court, causing us to get a point. After so many hits and slams and points, it came down to the last decider.

I commentated "The score is 9-9, this is the deciding point. Who will get the point and the free lunch. Will it be Lemon Hearts and Minuette or Twinkleshine and Moondancer?"

Twinkleshine served the ball towards me and I thrashed it towards Moondancer. The red and purple haired girl smashes the racquet into the ball as it constantly travels until it reached it's destination on Minuette's racquet. The ball is reflected towards Twinkleshine, but she was too slow and the ball would reach the fence, causing both me and Minuette to gain a point.

I announced "Me and Minuette are the winners, so Moondancer and Twinkleshine, you will need to buy us our lunch tomorrow."

Twinkleshine yelled "It's just not fair, why can't I win?"

Minuette replied "Don't worry Twinkleshine, it's just a game. Well speaking of games, I have to go now."

Twinkleshine replied "Well me too."

Moondancer replied "Me three because I need to study for tomorrow and you know how much studying I do everyday."

I would reply "Goodbye Girls."

I wandered to the back screen door, opened it and wandered the hallways until I reach my Bedroom. The Bedroom is decorated in pictures of my pony form and I always wonder if one day I would turn into a pony. I put the light on and I thought to myself "This is going to be a hard couple of days."
