PRINCIPAL CELESTIA: Here is your schedule.

JOHN: Thanks ma'am.

PRINCIPAL CELESTIA: Hope you have a nice day.

JOHN: John. So…what are we doing here exactly?

FLASH: We're about to do some basketball. We're trying to see who can get the most hoops but so far, Rainbow Dash is in the lead for the record so far.

JOHN: Rainbow?

John then looks over at Rainbow Dash.

JOHN: Oh That's Rainbow huh?

FLASH: That's right.

JOHN: And what is her record for the most hoops?

FLASH: 25?

JOHN: Hmm… I think I can beat that…

John grabs the ball. Then the coach blows the whistle, then each ball he throws went into the hoops with NOTHING but NET! And with the last ball in hand, he got the last hoop. And the record…30 hoops! Then Rainbow dash then came to the scene

RAINBOW DASH: So, you've beaten my record, huh? Looks like I have some new competition here.

PINKIE: SKITTLES?! WHERE?!

JOHN: Is she always this hyper?

FLUTTERSHY: She just really likes sugar. A lot.

JOHN: Well someone should tell her that she doesn't need too much.

John and his "new" friends head to the track to meet up with Rainbow for the race.

RAINBOW: *huffin and puffin* Same to ya, but it's not over yet!

4 laps down and one more to go.

JOHN: Heh looks like there's more to you than what meets the eye, But I'm gonna win this!

RAINBOW: We'll see bout that, Johnny!

The racers are coming up to the finish line.

PINKIE: And the winner is…

John and Rainbow crossed the finish line as…

PINKIE: …A TIE!

The two racers collapsed on the ground. Both out of breath.

TWILIGHT: Wow!

SUNSET: Yeah I know. I can't tell who's the fastest now!

FLUTTERSHY: Yay.

APPLEJACK: I can't believe ya two had so much stamina. Boy, when you compete, you compete.

John got up, recovered and reached his hand out to help Rainbow up.

JOHN: I gotta hand it to ya, Dash. That was some competition. You're not a bad racer.

RAINBOW: Well…uh… *blushes* Thanks.

Rainbow recovers herself.

RAINBOW: *ahem* You weren't so bad yourself.

Flash came into the scene.

FLASH: I hate to break up the moment but… we're busted.

Vice Principal Luna came into the scene with a angry look on her face

RAINBOW: Aww snap.

LUNA: WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!

JOHN: M-MA'AM! W-WE CAN EXPLAIN!

RAINBOW: I-IT WAS A FRIENDLY RACE! WE SWEAR!
