Chapter 10 - Final exams
"RISE AND SHINE MAGGOTS!" Spitfire yelled
"Ugh!" I yelled getting up
We all awoke and went down to the mess hall
I almost fell asleep in the pathetic excuse for food
"You alright?" Luke asked
"Yea, cant believe its already the last day" I said
"Ya" He said
We both walked out to the runway
"This you maggots, is your final exam, if we choose you, you will become a wonderbolt, if we do not choose you, go cry to your mothers" Spitfire yelled
I was nervous of failing, but I knew I had to go on
I saw the insane obstacle course, plus we had to do the most insane trick we could pull off
"First up is Crafty Crate" She said as he walked up
He flew up, and right before he began, he received a letter
"If you're not at work within 10 minutes, you're fired" It read
He flew off so fast I thought he was gonna explode
"Okay then.. Daring do, your up next" Spitfire said
Daring do flew up to the test, but then Derpy pulled out a letter for her too
"You are needed for an exposition" It read
She flew off into the distance
"DERPY SCRAM!" Spitfire yelled
Derpy instantly darted away
"Alright, lets see here, luke how about you go next?" She said
Luke went up and began the test
he completely did amazing on the obstacle course
But when he had to show off the best move he could, he curled up into a ball and cried for his mom
"Ugh.. so pathetic" Spitfire said groaning
One by one, everypony else in the academy was called up, and then failed, leaving only me behind
"Well I can honestly say, so far this pathetic excuse has been the worst class I have ever seen in all of the years I have been a wonderbolt" She said face-hoofing
"Alright Tristan, you're up" she said as I walked up to the start of the obstacle course
I flew past almost everything as if it were nothing
I struggled at a couple of points throughout the course, but it wasn't that challenging
"Well well well, perhaps we may have one talented flyer after all, alright Tristan, show us what you've got" she said, now with some of the other wonderbolts watching me
I flew directly into the air
Began to fly down at them at full speed, then right as I was about to dive bomb them,
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Lightning and sparks flew off in every direction almost as if a firework in the early-morning sky
I looked back at all of the wonderbolts, all of their jaws were dropped in amazement
"So how did you like that?" I asked flying down
"That.. was... INCREDIBLE" Soarin said
"Alright Tristan, Up for the final test to see if your wonderbolt material?"
"Depends" I said
"You couldn't turn down a race" She said
"Alright" I said stretching out my wings
"Challenge... accepted" I said
The two of us got at the starting line of a long racing course
"On your marks" Soarin said
"Get set" Fleetfoot yelled
"GO!" Blaze yelled as the two of us bolted off
It was nearly neck and neck as we were about halfway there
"Not too bad" She said
"Thanks!" I said
She was slightly gaining a bit of leeway
so I started going at full speed
Slowly, I felt time beginning to bend around me
I was getting faster and faster,
The sky was getting darker
"Oh no" Spitfire said
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
I flew by in a streak of light, zooming directly past her, and ripping the finish line in half
"Tristan wins!" Soarin yelled
A couple of seconds later, spitfire crossed the finish line
"Well Tristan, I would like to be the first to congratulate you, follow me" Spitfire said
I followed her back to her office
She handed me a wonderbolts uniform
I put it on in happiness
She handed me a contract to sign
"Sign here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and a hoofprint here" She said
After signing the contract I was tired
My hoof hurt like hell
"Congrats, you are the first wonderbolt in 5 years that we have recruited" Soarin said
"Thank you" I said
"Well Tristan, you probably have friends that you want to tell all about this" Spitfire said
"Yes actully" I said, still wearing my uniform
"Alright, meet back here tomorrow" Spitfire said saluting me
I saluted her back and walked out still wearing my wonderbolt uniform
I was flying to Fluttershy's house, when I saw Rainbow Dash's House and decided to stop in and have a "Nice" Visit
"SUCKIT SUCKIT SUCKIT SUCKIT!" *smash's roof* "NOT PAYING FOR THAT, SUCKIT SUCKIT SUCKIT!" I chanted flying away
I flew to Fluttershy's house
"Hello Fluttershy" I said walking in
"Wow!" She said seeing my wonderbolt uniform
"Yea!" I said
"So academy went well!" She said
"Well, i'm the first pegasus in 5 years to be recruited as a wonderbolt, so yes!" I said happily
"Oh.. does this mean you're going to be gone a lot of the time?" She asked
"Oh.. I hadn't thought about that" I said stopping to think for a minute
She stood there uneasily
"You should come with me on tour" I said
"Really? can I?" She asked
"I sure hope so" I said
I took off my uniform and hung it up on by the door
"How were things around here while I was gone?" I asked
"Good, good" She said
"Thats good!" I said
"Yea, Angel was so thoughtful to send you a little something" Fluttershy said
I remembered what he had sent
"Yes... So nice" I said
Angel stuck his tongue out at me
I gave him my version of the stare - which was almost completely ineffective
Angel just hopped away without caring
"Maybe you could come meet them with me tomorrow" I said
"Yea" She said
And thus - we went to sleep
(A/N Yay finally home, Review or not.)
