"SAINTS ACADEMY?!" I yelled in shock, getting all of my friends' attentions.

R: "You know them Darling?" Rarity asked confused.

Rd: "Where are they?!" I asked again, ignoring Rarity's question.

The blue haired boy named Soarin fully opened the gym's door, showing a team with red uniforms.

My eyes widened in shock when I saw my old team.. And Fluttershy. As soon the rest of the team entered the gym, Fluttershy immediately noticed me at the distance, making her gasp in shock.

Fs: "R-rainbow dash?" She asked confused, but when I approached her with open arms, she quickly smiled irresistibly while running towards me to give me a hug.

Rd: "Hey Shy.. I missed you." I whispered into her ear.

"RAINBOW DASH?!"

I pulled away from the hug as soon I heard a familiar voice yell my name in anger. I looked back and saw my pain in the ass friend.

Rd: "Hey Gilda, nice to see you t-" before I could even finish talking, She immediately charged at me with a angered look.

G: "Why the heck are you here Dash?!' She growled as she grabbed my arm.

I just laughed softly before giving her a cocky grin which made her even more pissed.

Rd: "Cause I study here now Gilds, why are ya mad?" I asked in a teasing way.

Ss: "Hey what are you doing to our 1st year?" Sunset asked with her creepy grin, making Gilda scared while loosening her tight grip on my arm.

When Gilda was about to respond, I heard another familiar male voice so I looked at the other side and saw..

Coach McIntosh?!

Rd: "Coach?!" I yelled in confusion, getting Sir McIntosh's attention. But when he looked back, he smiled at me before waving his hand.

Bm: "Howdy Rainbow, you really followed my advice."

Rd: "Of course I di-"

"BROTHER?!"

I turned around when I heard someone yell at the back, I saw Applejack with a shocked face.

The cowgirl then ran up to the coach and pulled him into a hug.

Rd: "Wait.. Coach McIntosh is her brother?!"

Ss: "I dont even know whats going on over here."

R: "Ehem, do you know them Rainbow?" Rarity whispered in my ear.

Rd: "Yeah.. Saint's academy is my old school and those are my old classmates."

Pp: "Even the one with the light pink hair? She looks so cute!"

Rd: "Who? Fluttershy? Yeah she's cute and all but-"

R: "Oohh~"

Rd:"I-Its not like that Rarity! Ehem, anyways she's a setter."

Ss: "And who's the one who angrily yelled at you?"

Rd: "Oh thats Gilda, our team's wing spiker.. I guess she's the team's captain now."

While the upperclassmen continued to talk about the other team, I kept on looking at Applejack and the coach which is her brother.

I really enjoy seeing Aj so happy.. I dont know why but it also makes me happy for some unknown reasons. Suddenly, I looked away from Applejack when I felt someone tap my back, so I turned around and saw Fluttershy.

Rd: 'Hey Flutters."

Fs: "Hi Dashie, i missed you."

Rd: "And I missed you too. "

Fs: "Why dint you tell me that your going to study here at CHS? And why is the cowgirl from last year with you?!" The shy girl asked confused.

Rd: "Well.. Its a lo- HEY!" I gasped in shock when I felt someone grabbed my arm and pulled me away.

I looked back and saw Applejack with a mad look, even though I keep yelling at her, she wont answer nor look at me.

When both our coaches demanded us to form a straight line, Shining armor explained the rules.

Rd: "Pstt~ Rarity." I whispered to Rarity beside me.

R: "Yes darling?"

Rd: "Who's that shining armor dude?"

R: "Oh he's our coach and Twilight's big brother."

Rd: "Really? But he doesn't look like a nerd like Twilight."

Ts: "Hey! I heard that!"

Rd: "Heard what?" I nervously denied while rarity held in her laughter so the couch wont yell at us.

After the two coaches discussed the game ruled, they did a handshake before returning their attentions at us.

Sa: "Alright! This practice match will be a 3 set game. Each set will contain 25 points so good luck to both schools."

Bm: "Remember, this is only a practice match, play fair and get to your positions now."

We all agreed to Coach McIntosh's orders so me and my team went to our positions and preparing our stance.

When both team's captains were called on front to flip a coin to determine who will serve first. And luckily, we get to go first.

Sunset and Gilda lastly shake hands before running back to our side. Sunset then took the ball from Flash before taking a deep breath and throwing the ball upwards, slamming it to the other team's base.

As soon the other team's libero received the ball, they passed it to Gilda for her to.. Spike?

I ready my stance to receive the ball, knowing that Gilda will jump at spiked the ball towards our base..

But.. She unexpectedly tossed the ball to Fluttershy?!

I immediately looked to my right and saw Fluttershy was already mid-air. I was supposed to run after her to block her spike but she slammed the ball into our base before I could even stop her.

While Flash scored their point, I gave Fluttershy a shocked look, but when our eyes met, she smiled back as her cheeks slightly blush.

I thought Fluttershy was only a setter, she's scared of spiking the ball when were in middle school.. Did she improve?

"Let show em' what we got."

I looked to my right and saw Applejack with a grin. I irresistibly smiled back while nodding in agreement.

When the Gilda did a floating serve, Pinkie pie immediately dived into the floor to receive it, making the ball bounce back in the air and landing directly at Applejack.

When Aj tossed the ball to me, I immediately jumped and closed my eyes, hoping that my palm will meet the ball. But when I slammed my hand.. I dint felt the ball.

When I fell back to the ground, I looked to my side and saw the ball drop outside the court.

Rd: "I.. Missed?" I asked myself in shock. But when I looked back at Applejack, she looks like raging out any second now but she controlled her anger when the captain tapped both our backs.

Ss: "Don't mind, we'll get the next one." Sunset sincerely yelled.

Gilda then went at the back again to serve the ball. But when she served the ball, it went directly at Applejack, causing her to toss the ball upwards.

Rd: "Give it to me!" I yelled with confidence while taking a few steps back to gain my momentum and jumping at the right time to match the ball.

But when I noticed that Applejack tossed the ball for Rarity, my anger got slightly worse cause I wanted to touch the ball so bad.

When Rarity spiked the ball, Saint's # 5 received it causing the ball to go back up in the air while Fluttershy jumped at the right time to toss the ball towards.. Gilda?

I immediately ran to the right to receive the ball as soon Gilda spikes it. But when I received the ball, it losses its momentum as the ball flew the opposite way.

Rd: "Cover! Im sorry!" I yelled in slight nervousness.

Pp: "Its okay!" Pinkie yelled while hitting the ball back to our base.

But when I saw that Applejack was about to toss, I immediately ran beside her to do the so called quick attack we did earlier.

As soon Aj touched the ball with her finger tips, I immediately jumped and closed my eyes. I then raised my hand and hoped that I will somehow connect her toss.

"S L A M ! "

When I felt the ball hit my hand, I slightly opened my eyes and saw the view on top of the net. I smiled victoriously before falling back to the ground.

I turned around to see my team and they were again speechless but grinning at the same time, while the other team was just plain speechless and shock.

Fs: 'That was quick.. " Fluttershy gasped in shock.

G: "That was hella fast.. How did she-"

I just grinned at the two before returning to Applejack which was right beside me.

Rd: "As long Im here, you're invincible!"  I yelled with a grin while raising my hand to give her a high five.

Applejack was speechless at first but she smiled back before giving me a painful high five.

Aj: "Dont be to cocky shorty." She replied with a teasing look.

Rd: "Oh screw you, your a giraffe anyways."

Aj: "What the hell did you ju-" Before Aj could even growl back, the captain slammed both our heads, making us to gasp in shock.

Ss: 'Come on now you two, no fighting." Sunset said with a laugh.

Me and Aj nervously laughed at the same time while we go back to our positions and waited for Flash to blow his whistle.

"WHAT WERE YOU DOING FOR THE PAST YEAR?!" Gilda yelled, grabbing the net while facing me with a angered look.

I gasped in shock but I just stared into her angered eyes instead of responding back.

Bm: "Gilda stop it." Their coach yelled with slight anger in his voice.

Gilda then agreed and apologized for her actions before going back to her position. As soon Flash blew the whistle, Twilight threw the ball upwards and did a float serve which made the ball's movements weird and confusing the other team.

When the ball fell straight down to Saint's academy's side, Their other member saved the ball with her left hand. The ball then flew back upwards while Gilda jumped at the right time to spike the ball.

But as soon she spiked the ball..

"S M A C K ! "

My eyes widened in shock when I saw Twilight jumped at the right time to block Gilda's attack..

How did she knew that Gilda would do a straight shot? She wasn't obvious at all..

Is this our upperclassmen true abilities?!
