Semi"finals:
Akko 188.1 x Diana 187.9
Rita 176.4 x Hellene 193.2

The semi"finals went off like a rocket, after the point by point contest between Diana and Akko, came the contest for Hellene's qualification for the final, as the younger Cavendish simply swept Rita into the third place contest, it was even a way for the redhead to conserve a bit for the big final. There was a final 15"minute break until the contest resumed, only for things to happen.
Diana simply did not want to return to the dispute when she was called, she stayed in the room for a while reflecting and even crying for the situation that happened in the kiss, which because of that ended up letting Rita win by WO, due to Diana's withdrawal in a wait of up to 5 minutes of tolerance, she even sent a message to Croix and Ursula to announce that she would not compete. Atsuko
's concern was very evident in relation to her friend, a bit of the regret of the kiss that she gave was rooting even more a feeling of guilt in Kagari's head, she felt bad for all that, but she knew that she couldn't let herself be taken by the feeling to give up a championship dispute that could be about to happen.

The time was getting closer, the great final of the championship, the Japanese and the younger Scottish would compete to see who was the best skater of Luna Nova, both were walking slowly, together, like two sisters, the public was clapping, the views at the time hit 2594, increasing every time that passed when it was the final and had the two participants who risked more.

" Hellene McLaren Cavendish, the daughter of the great champion Bernadette Cavendish! Four-time champion of the Luna Nova Skateboarding Championships! She's here to get her fifth glory! " Ursula said.

" Atsuko Kagari, better known as Akko, a newcomer who came to surprise, simply destroying on her arrival, managing to eliminate none other than the older sister of the great champion who until then is the four-time runner-up of the championship, which shows that we have plenty of talent here! " Croix said.

The public clapped, celebrating that beginning of the final, the coins were drawn, Hellene chose heads and Akko chose tails, when the turn was decided, the redhead who then patted the brown girl on the shoulder.

" Give it your all Akko, because I will also give my best, I know you can win, you are also very skilled, good luck, then we can sort it out with my sis " said the purple-eyed girl.

Cavendish then walked down the runway, positioning herself on the same megaramp where Akko had stood, just watching the ground, reaching for a stomp on her fists, then also on her neck.

" In three, two, one... Let's go! " Croix announces Hellene's first battery.

The redhead descends the megaramp at full speed, with quite a pack, until arriving at the jump where she sent a beautiful benihana 900, which fitted with such perfection, leaving the audience awestruck with the redhead's skill.
With that she was staying in line until a railing, where she entered there giving a simple Switch Double kickflip hitting a BS darkslide with such skill, the Scot then simply in the middle of the way gave a 180, since it was back, so getting with greater balance in a forward position, leaving there with a 540 flip.

" Woah! and Hellene has really come on, she doesn't measure up to go in this skill is simply a combination of manoeuvres that border on the impossible! This girl should be in a pro league! " Meridies comments.

Hellene continued paddling with the skateboard, this time towards a ramp where she hit an invert blunt for a few seconds, then with an impulse she does a small flip which leaves the skateboard in boardslide position, still supported on one hand, which in timing, she releases the skateboard going down fits the redhead's feet just in time, which leaves the audience all shocked with the monster balance of the purple"eyed girl.

" What is this? Hellene came with everything this year, I didn't even imagine that she would have this jump in skill from one part to the other in the final, this girl really wants to show the world that she is undoubtedly the great champion! Woah really Akko will have a great duel if she wants this first trophy because the redhead is on fire! " The Italian girl said in surprise, the audience had the same expression as Akko who was stunned.

Hellene continued the line with the momentum she picked up towards the stair railing, where she gives an Ollie just high enough, which she caught the railing in a nosegrind going up halfway up the staircase, which she simply sends a Double heelflip, hitting a 5-0 BS all the way down the staircase, where she does a nice kickflip underflip with half a minute left to go to end the battery, it was almost certain that she would get a near perfect score.

" This is an insanity already, Hellene simply climbed a ladder and still had the audacity and balance to return in it sending a Double heelflip, if sending a simple Ollie is already difficult, who will say a Double Heelflip, this only shows that we are here facing the future Bernadette Cavendish! " The lilac haired girl was impressed with every second and manoeuvre sent by Hellene.

And when it was time to finish the heat was where Mclaren decided to drop a bowl on the side which was sending Indy 540, Nosegrab 540, Japan 540 and then finished with a Benihana 540 where she simply was alternating the feet, showing even more of its magic in skateboarding, as if it were something stuck to his feet, the redhead finished with style her first heat, so much that even was celebrating a little panting.

" And Simply That is Hellene Cavendish! " Said the green"eyed one almost losing her voice.

Hellene walked to the waiting room, seeing the note and even getting somewhat wide"eyed at having managed to score so high and almost perfect, Akko's turn being.

" Don't lose hope Akko, the championship only ends at the last second, remember that " Cavendish said patting Kagari on the shoulder. Simply the Japanese woman was still in shock, she went to the megaramp where she had more safety to send an opening manoeuvre,

" In three, two, one... Let's go! " Croix announces the start of the first heat for Akko.

Kagari drops the megaramp, breathing deeply, where she was in a state of trance, practically connected with the skateboarding track, as if it was one thing only, when jumping she ended up sending a beautiful 900 Indy, which already made all the attention turn with the girl, the public is euphoric although Hellene did it in a more intense way it was still a very complicated maneuver.

" That's right Akko, just like Tony Hawk in 1999, this girl runs an Indy 900, it's amazing! This new generation really has it all! " Said the Italian.

Akko was continuing her line, sending a Fakie Heelflip fitting a BS Smith into a nearby railing, practically showing a lot of her skills, giving everything she can give of herself, emptying her head, she leaves that bar with a Fakie big spin, returning to her base. She
continues to paddle to another rail where she does a Kickflip with a darkslide, alternating with some flips in between, trying to do the maneuvers with style, until the end, where she does a 360 Varial heelflip, a flip that practically charmed everyone watching.

" Woah Akko is also going all out, she really hasn't let up since she faced Diana, she's really going for that win, that's really impressive " Meridies said

While Akko was making her line, trying to somehow secure herself against Hellene, back in the blue team's room, lying on the bed, there was Diana watching the whole skateboard championship on her computer monitor, still wiping away some of the tears.

" Go Akko! " Cavendish said in a more tearful tone.

Back to the skateboarding track, there was Kagari trying everything to send her line and manage to somehow match Hellene, but it was still complicated, the Japanese girl got impulse to a miniramp, where she starts to try the invert blunt that was the Cavendish brand, balancing for a few seconds, until she got out of there with a little difficulty, but even shaking she still had willingness to continue in the last 38 seconds.
And as she was in the mood, the brown girl simply sent a 360 hardflip going up on a crate, where she did a manual one foot nose, almost falling, she went on her way sending some flips, then doing a nosebluntslide on the top step, where she came out with a 540 flip, ending her first heat.

" Akko was great, she also really wants to go all out in these heats, she will do her best to win! " Croix comments.

A few batteries later...

Final

Akko Score: 95.8/ 94.6 = 190.4
Score Hellene: 99.8/ 99.6 = 199.4

Hellene simply gave it her all, scoring her best score of the Luna Nova skateboarding championship with a 9"point lead over Akko to establish herself as a five"time champion.
Akko tried to push herself to the limit but was already getting tired, both physically and emotionally, but still didn't feel totally defeated as it was a contest that she went much further than she expected.

" Hellene McLaren Cavendish! Simply this girl is a machine! With one hundred and ninety"nine point four points, she established herself as the five-time champion of the Luna Nova Skateboarding Championships, on our new track! A perfect score! This girl deserves a professional career, she has talent to spare! " Ursula said.

" Akko don't be so devastated, you made it all the way to second place and that was amazing, you made it so far in your first championship and soon there will be even more opportunities, come here next year and I'm sure you'll do great, just keep training and you'll keep going far, look where you got with just one month of training! " Said Croix while Hellene was jumping for joy, even imitating the position of a bird on top of the skateboard.

" Yeah! Another one for the count! I will keep flying, you all had a lot of fun in this championship, I just thank you all in how you made me push my limits! " said the redhead celebrating.

" Thank you Hellene, even though I lost it was fun to compete with you, now I have the dimension of what I have to climb, you can be sure that I will come back strong in 2018 " Atsuko said with a smile on her face.

" Ah this I can't wait to see, give it your all Akko, train hard, be the best, I know you can and you will, because I believe in you, as Shiny Chariot herself used to say... " Said the Scottish girl until Akko complements.

" Your magic is believing in yourself " Say the two together who then hug each other.

After this starts an awards ceremony between the first three on a podium that was made on the track, where a smoke of reddish colours was coming out, then the trophies of each was being delivered, plus a wreath for the champion in the case of Hellene that was already accumulating its fifth wreath and the gold trophy.
After this delivery of trophies was given bottles with soda, where Kagari and Cavendish rocked to no longer give splashing soda on each other as if it were champagne, Rita also entered the wave, the three girls practically lambuzaram that moment that were taken pictures to record and also the end of an epic livestream that had a peak of 3013 views.

" That was wonderful " said Hellene all smiles and excitement.

" You also did very well Hellene, now if you don't mind I have a few things to sort out " Akko said patting her friend on the shoulder.

" I won't stop you, go and sort it out with my sister, I wish you both all the best, you're quite nice for a sister"in"law," said Cavendish mockingly.

" Oh come on Hellene " Kagari replies, blushing.

The Japanese girl goes walking out of the track with the silver trophy in hands, practically running in the empty halls of Luna Nova, which was still afternoon, running to the red team's room she leaves the skateboard and also the trophy on a desk, then she goes running only to one place, the blue team's room, where she meets the door, which wasn't locked, so she goes inside.
He noticed that on Diana's private room the door was closed, with a bit of fear, he even thought of knocking on the door, but stopped at the last second.

" You may enter Akko... " Cavendish said in a slightly less tearful tone.

Atsuko opens the door, notices that over there the Scottish lass was sitting while the computer monitor was on and the livestream had just finished on Croix and Ursula's channel, which even cracks a smile on Kagari's face.

" Were you watching me? " asks the brown one.

" Why shouldn't I be? I saw you gave it your all, but my sis, for Beatrix... That lassie is a monster, seriously... She'll still be a great skater in the future and so will you Akko, you'll also have a future if that's what you dream of " Said the one with platinum blonde hair.

" I wish I could be as cool as Shiny Chariot, it's been a dream since childhood, I wish I could know her whereabouts, one day meet her, the two of us could go on a skateboard tour around the world, but then she kind of disappeared " Answers the crimson-eyed girl scratching the back of her neck.

" You will make it Akko, I know you will, I mean I believe in you now, I have great respect for everything you've been through and done, you didn't need all this, but you still made sure to do it... " Said the blue"eyed one smiling.

" You know that my reason for coming here was not that either... I just want to apologize, I ended up feeling a little guilty for what happened at the championship " said the Japanese woman.

" Oh, the kiss... You know, it wasn't all bad, it's not something that will destroy our friendship, I know you're all impulsive Akko, I just felt kind of impacted by what happened, I felt kind of emotional, you know... You were my first kiss," said the Scottish lass, blushing.

" Oh really? You too... I think I kind of did it on impulse because I saw you next door all excited, it was crazy that came into my head, voices saying kiss her, kiss her, kiss her... " Said Akko scratching the back of her head.

" You should listen to them more often... Heh " Said Diana trying to make a more confident expression, but then blushing in the process at Akko's all neutral expression.

" Ah so that means we're settled on that... " Said Akko who was then surprised by a sudden hug given by Cavendish feeling some of Kagari's soda"drenched clothes soak through.

" Of course Akko, now let's move on, now that this championship is over we have many things we can do, between us " Said the blond haired one.

" Ah I think the first one is a shower, because I'm all messed up with the soda from the podium ceremony " said the brown girl laughing all relaxed, but the other girl was totally flushed, already thinking of other things.

Only this whole thing and atmosphere was soon interrupted by the sound of doors opening outside the room, it was Hannah and Barbara arriving, in this even Akko ends up giving a take off from the girls' colleague, kind of a little embarrassed.

" I think I'm going now Diana, I really have to take a nice bath, it was good to know that we are even, see you later, I don't doubt that we will have a party to celebrate your little sister's victory, she deserves it " said Atsuko smiling.

" Why a party? She won as usual, it's the fifth time in a row, since I've been here, we've never done something like this, and August 7th is her 15th birthday so there's no reason to be so ceremonious about it," Cavendish shrugged.

" Exactly because of that, you are very dead, Hellene is our friend, she deserves to celebrate this victory, I don't doubt that if I had won you would do the same, so why not do it for her that won, even more because it's five times, she has to be ignored because she is very skilled? So, you're invited to a slumber party at the green team's room to celebrate Hellene's victory " said Kagari, leaving her friend's private room and leaving Diana's room, she soon noticed the presence of Hannah and Barbara, who also noticed her.

" What are you doing here, you soda"soaked pig, happy that you eliminated our colleague and made her make a big deal out of kissing her.

" Hannah! Barbara! Leave Akko alone, she has done nothing wrong, respect Akko or I will lose your respect " Said the Scottish woman loud and clear the two who end up just leaving the passage open for Akko to return to her room.

And with all this emotion the great skateboarding championship of Luna Nova came to an end, with Hellene's fifth conquest, becoming the biggest winner of the tournament, but Akko was not so far behind, being a newcomer that surprised, fighting until the end to get a well deserved second place, which she even saw as a victory given the very high level that Hellene has.

See you, Champion witches...
