> AppleLauda visits Mount Aris and Seaquestria > by AppleLauda99942 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The arrival > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A normal day, and a amazing weather in Ponyville... Is there anything else what can ruin the mood of Equestrias best race driver? Apple Lauda is on his way to Mount Aris because Silverstream invited him there. "so they're practicing at the Nordschleife huh?! They should prepare for me" Apple Lauda said with a huge amount of confidence but it will turn out that this race will be his toughest race ever. In the meantime, Silverstream and her family practiced hard on the Nordschleife in Gran Turismo. "How on Equestria does that Apple Lauda know the whole track?! I crashed again!!!" said Sky Beak "I don't know but we might get destroyed by him if we don't practice harder" said Ocean Flow But as soon as they could start another run, Apple Lauda arrived. Silverstream immediately tackled her boyfriend and kissed him. "Welcome to Mount Aris Juggernaut" said Silverstream. "Juggernaut?!" Terramar was already in big fear but he knew that even the best can do mistakes. "Hello Apple Lauda, I'm Terramar and it's nice to meet you" "thanks Terramar, it's a pleasure to meet you too. But don't expect to beat me using my own weapons" Apple Lauda said and laughed Ocean Flow and Sky Beak heard that and are working on a hidden Master plan by using Apple Lauda's own weapons. "if we're using that what Niki Lauda did back in the 1970's, then we could win..." "Apple Lauda is the only one who mastered Niki's technique!!! It could go wrong" They managed to create the ultimate plan to finally take down the Nürburgring God "so Apple Lauda do you want some warm up before the real deal comes?" asked Silverstream "just to destroy you and your family?" Apple Lauda said and tickled Silverstream "alright the race is starting soon... It's time to warm up" Terramar said "Terramar? Could you have a moment please?" Sky Beak asked "Sure" Terramar answered. "what is it dad?" Sky Beak showed Terramar the ultimate master plan to defeat Apple Lauda The warm up began and Apple Lauda did that what he could do best. But at the section Wippermann, Apple Lauda lost control over his Dodge Viper GT3-R but managed to prevent a crash or a spin "That was close!!! Well done" Queen Novo said "it wasn't even close at all" Apple Lauda responded. "I know every single corner of the track" "he's like merged with the track!!!" Ocean Flow said in shock "I know!!! This is why I look forward to this race" said Silverstream and hugged Apple Lauda Apple Lauda got a smile on his face when he got hugged from behind but then he crossed the finish line. "6:10,505" Apple Lauda said in joy. "Oh my goodness... How is he that quick despite the spin?!" Terramar asked. "he's a God!!!" "Don't worry Son... we'll get him sooner or later..." Sky Beak said "oh we forgot to introduce ourselves. I'm Ocean Flow and this is Sky Beak" said Ocean Flow "Hello Apple Lauda, I've heard a lot of you especially from Silverstream. She talks a lot about you" Sky Beak said "it's a pleasure to meet you two" Apple Lauda said "looks like Silverstream truly loves me" then the race was about to start when everycreature was warmed up. "let's get over this real quick... " said Apple Lauda "are you sure about it Apple Lauda?" Sky Beak asked "we have the ultimate plan to finally beat you" "the only way you can beat me is if I crash... Wait a second... YOU'RE NOT USING THE" MAKE YOUR OPPONENTS NERVOUS" WEAPON DO YOU?!" every Seapony laughed. Now AppleLauda is in real trouble... He found out what they've planned in the last weeks Apple Lauda got extremely nervous. His hooves started to shake a lot and he's using Sixaxis Motion Control as well. "I swear I'm already nervous... Your plan might work if I crash..." Apple Lauda admitted. "but I won't surrender at all!!!" Apple Lauda took a deep breath and prayed to the track. He knew that he's facing the best from Seaquestria/Mount Aris Then confidence raises into a whole new world. Now Silverstream and her family were the masters of the Nürburgring. Apple Lauda has only one chance to save his territory. By speedrunning the ring at Maximum Attack!!! Apple Lauda went into his Juggernaut state. Now he's supposed to be unstoppable. Or is he? "You will go down Apple Lauda" said Silverstream whilst laughing. "wait I'm still in Pony form. Am I gonna drown" Queen Novo immediately transformed Apple Lauda into a Seapony so he won't drown "thank you" Apple Lauda said "you're welcome" Queen Novo responded. Terramar finally found his rhythm around the track during the warm up. "Apple Lauda, this time you won't win. Face it you're never going to get a plan in time to prevent your defeat" he said "Do I look like I need a plan?" Apple Lauda responded with a laugh Silverstream and Apple Lauda hugged and kissed each other Then Apple Lauda held a speech "I want to thank you all that I can be here with you and I really looked forward to it. I have been wondered how Seaquestria is like. And my honest opinion is that Seaquestria is a beautiful place. As beautiful as Mount Aris. If I had to decide what is more beautiful then I couldn't decide... Both Mount Aris and Seaquestria are beautiful places as well as the Nürburgring Nordschleife. But spending time with my friends and with our beloved Silverstream is even more beautiful. You can go to Mount Aris or Seaquestria anytime you want to, but you don't have everyday the opportunity to be with the people you love. I had to tell you all about it because my heart wanted it to do and yet again thank you all for inviting me to these wonderful places. You all are legends. Thank you" Silverstream teared up in happiness and hugged Apple Lauda really tight "Awwww thank you so much for that" Silverstream responded Apple Lauda and Silverstream hugged for a while before the race had finally started "well Apple Lauda I must say that was the most kind way to thank us" Queen Novo said "I agree" Terramar responded. "You even managed to make my sister cry because she's so happy. I've never seen her so happy before" > The race > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Queen Novo made the final call for the ultimate race between Apple Lauda (Dodge SRT Viper GT3-R) and Silverstream (BMW M6 GT3), Terramar (Lamborghini Huracan GT3), Ocean Flow (Ferrari 458 GT3) and Sky Beak (Audi R8 LMS) "so here are the winning conditions" Queen Novo announced. "If Apple Lauda wins this race, then he wins in overall. But if for example Silverstream wins and Apple Lauda finishes second, then he loses the battle" "This is going to be hard... I don't think I can manage this..." Apple Lauda admitted. Then the race had started. Apple Lauda immediately took the lead after turn 1 but the others are directly behind him going down to Hatzenbach Silverstream in P2, Ocean Flow in P3, Terramar in P4 and Sky Beak in P5. Silverstream wants to try to overtake at Hocheichen but Apple Lauda shuts the door. Then the first overtake happens. Terramar goes up to P3 and is on a massive charge through Quiddelbacher Höhe all the way to Adenauer Forst, overtaking Silverstream and Apple Lauda. Terramar is leading the race!!!! incredible!!! the Nürburgring god is down to P2 then Apple Lauda gets overtaken by Silverstream, dropping down to P3 "okay enough Sandbagging... Play time is over now. Maximum Attack now!!!" Apple Lauda said and starts to charge through the track. From Kallenhard all the way to Wippermann, Apple Lauda goes Maximum Attack, overtaking Terramar and Silverstream. Apple Lauda is back on the top, with an lead of 15.78 seconds!!! then Apple Lauda approaches Pflanzgarten, brakes but loses control and gets into the gravel. "I hate Pflanzgarten!!!!!!" Apple Lauda said "Oh did you go off?" said Silverstream and laughed. "this is our chance to catch up!!!" said Terramar but Apple Lauda managed to get out of the gravel quickly "You won't ever catch me!!!" Apple Lauda said "Are you sure about that?!" said Ocean Flow. She managed to catch up to Apple Lauda. she's directly behind him "NOW IT'S OVER FOR YOU APPLE LAUDA!!!!" Sky Beak said with huge confidence. Silverstream and Terramar joined the battle. "We will end this" Terramar and Silverstream said "I'm so doomed... Galgenkopf please help me!!!" Apple Lauda said in fear. The 4 arrived at Galgenkopf and Apple Lauda managed to get the best exit, pulling away from anyone. "finally I can chill... a few corners more and I win..." Apple Lauda said in confidence. then Apple Lauda lost a bit of traction in the last corner, causing Silverstream to catch up to her Boyfriend. "COME HEERE!!!!" Silverstream shouted. The race ended in a Drag Race to the finish line. "OH NO I WON'T LOSE!!!" Apple Lauda shouted Silverstream and Apple Lauda crossed the finish line at almost the exact same time. Only 0.001 seconds are seperating them. "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH" "WHAAAT?! NOOOO WAY THIS HAPPENED!!!" "What are the odds of that Whaaaat?!" then the race results showed up saying that Silverstream won the race "OOOOOOH MY GOOOOOD ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?!" Apple Lauda shouted. "This is so ridiculous!!! I tossed my win into a trash can!!!!" "Silverstream did he lose?!" Terramar asked "AHAHHAHAHA OOOOH MY GOOOOSH!!! THERE'S NO WAY I WON THIS HAHAAHHAAHA NOO WAY!!!!" Silverstream celebrated her win leaving a stunned Apple Lauda on P2. "that one hurts a lot... but hey congratulations Silverstream" Apple Lauda said "well done Silverstream, you're a legend" Terramar said "Wow... no one has ever beaten Apple Lauda on the Nürburgring before!!!" Queen Novo said "this is the biggest achievement in Seaquestrias/Mount Aris' history. Defeating the Nürburgring god" Ocean Flow said on the next day, Twilight announced that there will be the battle of the giants between Apple Lauda and Silverstream at the School of Friendship. Apple Lauda knew that this could be the day of his revenge on Silverstream. "Oh did you get beaten by Silverstream?" Twilight asked "BY ONE THOUSANDS OF A SECOND!!!!" Apple Lauda said Twilight started laughing. "No you didn't just lost by that margin..." "he did and to be honest it was finally time for that... he tossed his win into a trash can because he had no traction at the end" Sky Beak said Applejack heard that and started laughing. "really?! tell me you're kidding" "we're not kidding" Ocean Flow responded good thing Apple Lauda did some practice in order to not throw his win away again "I have learned what mistakes I did and I'm ready to rumble" Apple Lauda said then Apple Lauda prepared for the final battle before Silverstream arrived. "Alright I'm ready for the final battle" Silverstream said "Good then we can start the battle. 2 laps at the 24h Nürburgring version and the winner will get the title Nürburgring God" Everycreature cheered for Silverstream. Now Apple Lauda got really nervous because on the GP circuit, he's an easy target. His title is on the line!!! But Apple Lauda was more confident than ever before. He activated TCS to use it as Launch Control but Silverstream had the same Idea. "Alright let the final battle begin!!!" Rainbow Dash announced and Apple Lauda revs his Viper GT3 to 6k RPM. Silverstream revs her M6 GT3 to 5k RPM and the race begins. Both slam their throttle but Apple Lauda turns TCS off too early and gets wheelspin and Silverstream pulls ahead deactivating TCS at the perfect time. Now Apple Lauda started Speedrunning and immediately catched up to Silverstream. As they approached the Nordschleife, Silverstream managed to get ahead but Apple Lauda retakes the lead as they enter the Nordschleife. "I'll make this quick and painless" Apple Lauda said in confidence and magages to pull away from Silverstream, getting a 8 second lead as he approaches Aremberg. Silverstream went Maximum Attack but still didn't manage to catch up to Apple Lauda until Apple Lauda approaches Wehrseifen. until Hedwigshöhe, Silverstream manages to close the gap to 5 seconds. But then apple Lauda pulls away really hard. "This is my strongest section" Apple Lauda said. the first lap is over and Apple Lauda leads by a margin of 13 seconds. That's incredible!!! and at the end of the race Apple Lauda wins by 33 seconds. "that was a little daily drive for me" Apple Lauda said. "I got destroyed... but hey I did win against you in Seaquestria. Congratulations" Silverstream said and gave Apple Lauda a kiss on his cheek. Apple Lauda did it again... He won at the Nürburgring again... The title Nürburgring God remains in Apple Lauda's hooves. "At least you tried everything Silverstream" Apple Lauda said comforting Silverstream and gave her a kiss. "Man you totally destroyed our daughter!!!" Ocean Flow said "You definetly are the Nürburgring God" "I was sandbagging" Apple Lauda responded with sarcasm and laughed then Silverstream and Apple Lauda carried on at their day at the School of Friendship after their intense battle
