I've had a sudden burst of inspiration after watching bits and pieces of Wildfire and Instant Star episodes on Youtube. I gotta tell I have a good feeling about this post.

"Pablo come on. Give him a chance. He'll make it!" Jude said to Pablo following him around the whole farm.

"No Jude. The Breeder's Challenge is in three days. Midnight needs to shed a whole minute in order to beat Avatar. We can't pull that off in just three days." Pablo replies stacking the last hay stack.

It has been about four weeks since Jude has convince Pablo and Jean to let Midnight ride in the race. It took about two weeks to train Midnight to be calm and be handled by a person. Midnight still hasn't been doing well during warm ups. He still needs to shed a minute just so he could beat Avatar's time. The Breeder's is in three days and Jude is starting to feel the pressure and Pablo doesn't think Midnight could handle it. Her and Tommy have gotten really close. Jude thinks they're just friends because she doesn't believe that he could like someone like her. What she doesn't know is that since Tommy and Kwest are sharing a room, they've been talking. Kwest knows everything and he has to admit... Tommy's got it bad. Tommy had his viper sent down a week ago and him and Jude had been sneaking off at night to go hang out by a bridge that Jude liked. Kwest had his Navigator sent down.

"Just let me work with him. I'll work night and day, I know we could win this. Please." Jude begged. Pablo looked her in the eye and realized that she actually believed she could win it.

"Fine. Get to work."

"THANK YOU!" Jude said as she threw herself in his arms. When Jude got off of him she ran towards Matt, who was waiting with Midnight.

"PABLO! PABLO!" Jude shouted as she ran towards Pablo, who was talking to Jean and the G-Major staff, including Tommy.

"What's the matter?" Jean and Pablo asked worried

"We...did...it." Jude said in between breathes

"Did what?" Pablo asked

"He shed the minute. Here look." Jude said as she handed Pablo the stop-watch.

"OMG." Pablo said as looked from the stop-watch to Jude, then the stop-watch again

"How did you do this. I mean you've only been gone for about five hours?" Jean asked excited

"It wasn't Midnight at all. He felt like he was running for nothing. Then Todd took one of his race day recordings and played it over the PA. Midnight got into it and he thought he was really at the race. I told you he could do it." Jude said as she hugged Jean.

"Jude you could have the rest of the day off."Jean said

"You serious?" Jude asked shocked

"Yeah go have fun. Pablo and I have to talk to Liam and Darius anyway." With that she and Pablo walked away with Darius and Liam. They left the SME boys, Portia, Kwest, Tommy, Sadie, Matt, and Jude alone.

"How about we go to Ray's?" Speed asked.

"Sure. You guys coming?" Jude asked the rest of the gang.

"Sure." Just then Dani and Junior pulled up in her Escalade. They got out and started walking towards them.

"Hey where you guys headed?" Junior asked

"We were going to Ray's. Midnight shed that minute and I got the day off. We really think he could beat Avatar." Jude said

"Yeah right. No one has ever beat Avatar. He's the fastest horse in Montana. He always wins." Dani said

"Dani why don't you go shove it." Sadie said. Every since she and Dani met two weeks ago, Sadie hated her.

"Why don't you just..." Dani started but was cut off by Jude stepping in front of Sadie

"Something you want to say Dani?" Jude asked

"No."

"That's what I thought." Jude said she started walking away. Everyone went in Kwest's truck and Dani and Junior went in Dani's truck. On the way to Ray's they stopped at a red light. Dani started gunning her engine and Jude laughed. Kwest who was driving asked her.

"What are you laughing at?"

"She wants to race." Jude said looking at Dani then to Kwest.

"Should we?" He asked

"Go ahead." Jude said as she sat back

Kwest starting gunning his engine letting Dani know that they were going to race. When the light turned green, they were off. They only made it about a block before they were pulled over by a cop. They were all standing outside in front of the trucks. When the cop got out of the car. Dani started to giggle. Everyone looked at her like they were crazy, before the cop started talking.

"You guys know that racing is illegal right?"

"Yeah." then the cop looked at Junior and asked

"Aren't you Junior Davis?"

"Yeah." Junior said

" You dated my little sister. Molly Blitzer."

"um..." before he could say anything, Officer Blitzer walked back to his car. After about a minute he walked back to them.

"Are you Jude Harrison?" he asked Jude

"Yeah." Jude replied confused just like everyone else.

"You do know you are on probation?"

"Shit" Jude muttered under her breathe

"Up against the car." he said as he grabbed Jude's arm and leaned her over the car so her hands were on the hood. He started to check her, to see if she had anything on her. He then took his hand-cuffs and cuffed Jude. Everyone noticed this and got scared. Kwest started to speak up.

"Why are you arresting her, she wasn't even driving?" Kwest asked

"Shut-up or else you're going too." Officer Blitzer replied as he put Jude in his squad car.

"Jude don't worry. I'll get you out. Don't worry okay." Matt said as the car started driving away. Tommy just stood there not knowing what to do. He didn't even stand up for her when she was being searched

"Give me your phone." Matt said to him. When Tommy gave him the phone Matt started to dial.

"Mom? Listen we were pulled over and the cop started searching Jude. They arrested her. No she wasn't driving. She wasn't doing anything. Just get down here please." With that he hung up and gave the phone back to Tommy.
