*Narrating*

Rick: The Earth Team made it to the playoffs, but lost their first two races. Basically, they were headed out the door. So Don Wei called in the cavalry... me, Rick Thunderbolt, former champion star-racer pilot, and now, the new coach for the Earth Team. Everything went smoothly after that. We won the next race. But Molly's holding something back. I can feel it. I hope she'll open up, otherwise I'll have to question Adam what's bothering her

*Adam POV*

As for today's training, Rick decided for us to take Whizzing Arrow for a spin, with Jordan training his aim to get used to both mine and Eva's piloting style. Let's say... good thing Jordan ate lightly before flying with me. Now it's Eva's turn, as me and Rick observe them flying around the pound. I cover my microphone

Adam: "Bet she'll not beat my time?" Rick covers his microphone too

Rick: "You, of all the people, are betting against her?" he chuckles. "Better not let her know about it" Arrow flies past us "Okay, Molly. Now, give me the edge"

Eva: "Check" she turns Arrow sideways

Rick: "Triple spin clockwise" Arrow does three spins to the right, while I hear unpleasant sounds from Jordan

Jordan: "You're even worse than Adam. Good thing I ate lightly..."

Adam: "Instead of whining, why don't you make something about it, Wilde"

Rick: "Switch the turret and aim towards the rear"

Jordan: "Uh, sorry. I'm on it" Turret retracts and appears on top of tilted Arrow II

I look at still speeding Arrow, before Rick taps my shoulder

Rick: "How about we encourage her to go faster, huh? Wolfie?"

Adam: "Sure"

Rick: "Is that the best you can do, Molly? Come on, give me the same, counterclockwise" Eva gets Arrow to spin three times to the left this time "Come on, keep doing your best!"

*timeskip*

After the last training lap for Eva, Rick called it a day and she got the Arrow back to the hangar. I get to the cockpit, getting ready for today's race

Eva: "Just be careful with the throttle, it started to get sensitive"

Adam: "Okay"

Eva: "Oh, and don't worry about the brake handle being loose. It works fine"

Adam: "Okay..."

Eva: "If anything-" I cut her off

Adam: "Star, I already did pilot with rocket seat, right before your training. And if I remember, you didn't beat my time in time trail..."

Eva: "Only because Jordan started complaining! Yet, you're one race behind" She smirks "Molly:1, Adam:0"

Adam: "It will change soon enough" I smirk

Don: "Okay people. Let's get it together. It's almost time!" We look at him "I'm counting on all of you to do your very best and win today's race" Eva gets irritated

Eva: "Me, me, me. A simple 'good luck' would be nice, just once"

Adam: "Heh, I don't need his luck. Just be sure to not let him do anything, Star, and everything will be alright" I offer a fistbump "Go to the control room and enjoy the show" Eva accepts the gesture

Eva: "Just don't kill yourself, okay?" Then Rick gets up the ladder to the cockpit

Rick: "I hope I'm not destroying your moments, lovebirds. Molly, are you still worried about your dad?"
