Faye climbed down out of her ship and rubbed her neck and sighed. The rain pounded down on the ships hull and trickled down off the ship into the water. Pulling her sunglasses off of her damp head she tossed them up into the cockpit of her ship and shut the hatch.
It had been a horrible day at the races. Her luck had started off great then plunged over a cliff after some old guy groped her butt and then tried to run off and brag to his friends who were playing cards. As he started to run-hobble back to the table she took three steps forward and the old pervert got a white boot in the side and his nose to the cement.
The other two old guys stood up and the one with the blue cap was given money by the other. They wobbled over to their beaten friend and tried to help him up, but got stuck halfway down. They grabbed their backs and yelled loudly until they were removed by some security officers.
When her attention fully returned to the races Java was trailing behind Charlie, Bullet, and Roller-skate, and Willow's Good was in the lead. "Dammit!" she exclaimed and ran to the betting windows to change her money to a different horses. Java just wasn't cutting it today. She stood on her tip-toes and tried to see over the heads. Willow's Good looked like he was holding pretty steady, but Bullet was coming up fast. She split her 20 million woolongs between the two.
Faye sighed, content that she would have money no matter which way the race went, and let herself slowly mosey back towards the rail. Suddenly a roar went up from the crowds. Derisive shouts and unbridled yells of joy hammered her ears.
Pushing through the now fervent crowd Faye burst through the people and wrapped her hands around the rail, leaning out. She squinted her eyes, her lips pursed.
Willow's Good was neck and neck with Bullet. She raised her arm and whooped because maybe they would be tied and she'd get twice her money back!
Someone bumped into her, pushing her stomach into the rail and knocking the ticket out of her hand as another mighty roar began and a golden horse zoomed passed all of the others and won the race.
Her mouth hung open as she watched her ticket float and twist in the turbulent air on its way down.
The announcer's voice filtered through to her as she lost sight of the ticket. "And what a surprise! Peanut Butter, from behind, comes out on top! What a finish!"
"Peanut Butter? What the hell." She whined pathetically as she folded her arms on the rail and put her head on them.
After that she had decided to be angry and stomped off to her ship and flew home.
What a shitty day. She thought as a white-sparkling marble rolled across the hanger and bumped into the toe of her boot.
NFA: Yay, for Faye! This chapter seemed sorta boring to me, but I liked finding names for the horses. I hope you enjoyed it and this chapter's title was taken from the song 'Judy in Disguise with Glasses.' PLEASE REVIEW! Next up.Jet chapter!
